Alaris Properties founder and managing broker Jon Terry moved from a successful career as an executive and attorney to become one of Colorado’s top real estate brokers—a job that he finds incredibly fulfilling and pursues passionately as a service to his community.
“The need for real estate is universal. People need homes where they feel secure and can raise their families. There is also unlimited potential for wealth building in real estate,” Jon says. “That means that there is a tremendous need for real estate services.”
Jon graduated Summa Cum Laude and class Valedictorian from Phillips University, then earned his law degree from the prestigious Northwestern School of Law. He held several positions—partner in a law firm emphasizing various aspects of business law, high-level executive with LHD Enterprises, and President of Venture Partners LLC, a business incubator and accelerator—before beginning his career in real estate.
In 2003, Jon brought the keen ability to analyze complex situations and come up with creative solutions that he had honed in the business world to a new career in real estate. He established Alaris Properties in 2009 to meet the needs of buyers, sellers, and investors by providing comprehensive, customized service.
Jon takes the stress out of real estate transactions and makes the process enjoyable and exciting. “At closing, most people are asked to sign stacks of documents that they’ve never seen before, and I think that’s a travesty,” Jon says. “We go over the documents that clients will sign at closing beforehand. We educate our clients so that they’ll understand what they’re doing and relax, knowing that they’re being protected along the way.”
Jon teaches ethics for the National Association of Realtors®, teaches the mandatory update course for the Colorado Real Estate Commission, and teaches legal concepts and risk management for various real estate associations across the state. He has also served as an expert witness on real estate matters in a number of court cases.
Of course, Jon realizes that great service requires more than simply being an expert. “I love the expression, ‘Nobody cares how much you know until they know how much you care,’” Jon says. “Our services are not just about providing you with knowledge. We work with you to understand what your goals are and help you navigate through the real estate process. We go the extra mile to make sure that even the smallest details are looked after.”
