Colorado Real Estate Broker Jake Hubbell

Jake Hubbell is a native of Western Colorado, born in Carbondale and raised in Marble and Crawford, small towns in the heart of the Elk Mountains. The son of an outfitting family, Jake was helping guide horseback rides at an early age. He grew up fly-fishing the Roaring Fork, Crystal, and Frying Pan rivers, hiking to high-country lakes and streams, and hunting elk in the high country.

Outstanding academic achievement at Western State Colorado University

As a high school student in Hotchkiss, Jake excelled at wrestling and started at wide receiver on the football team, yet his best achievements were in the classroom. Jake graduated high school with an Associate of Science degree and parlayed that success into the Professional Land and Resource Management (PLRM) degree program at Western State Colorado University in Gunnison. As one of the top students in the program, Jake graduated Magna cum Laude in 2017—debt free, in three years. He became a licensed real estate broker while finishing his senior year of college.

Water rights, range management, geology, accounting

The PLRM program is centered around mineral rights leasing for the oil and gas industry, with a curriculum that is also ideal for Western ranch brokerage. Jake Hubbell has studied Colorado water law, range management, accounting and finance, mineral rights leasing and acquisition, hydraulic fracturing, environmental politics, contract law, geology, marketing, and communications—all skills that come in very handy when listing and selling Colorado ranch real estate.

Excellent marketing skills—websites, drone video, photography, social media

You know how you always ask a kid to help you with your smart phone or tablet? How to use a website or fly a drone? Jake Hubbell is that kid. He is innately familiar with many new technology platforms, and uses that to help his property sellers. Jake’s drone videos have won several national auction marketing awards. His “new school” approach to real estate marketing benefits his clients with fresh ideas and disruptive technology. From targeted facebook marketing campaigns, to pin-pointed advertisements, Jake’s approach is to find buyers and create engagement.

Mountain land, resorts, ranches, hunting property, luxury homes—a family legacy

Colorado real estate broker Jake Hubbell is an outdoorsman and adventurer, hunter and fisherman. His interests lie in selling the type of properties fitting his lifestyle—ranches, resorts, luxury homes, ski properties, mountain land, and hunting property. He is an avid skier, fly fisherman, upland bird hunter, waterfowler, and big game hunter, and has a beautiful yellow Labrador retriever. Jake has the benefit of seasoned leadership, as his father, Gary Hubbell, is an experienced and well-known Colorado ranch broker and auctioneer.

Award-winning Marketing Expert and Top Agent

Jake Hubbell has quickly established himself as one of the top young agents in Colorado. Nominated for the National Association of Realtors (NAR) “30 Under 30” recognition program, Jake is known in ranch real estate circles for outstanding accomplishment not just for a young broker, but for any broker. He has been instrumental in marketing and selling multi-million-dollar ranch properties and multi-parcel auction properties. In March 2023, Jake was a co-instructor at the National Land Conference on valuing real estate with business assets included, which was most popular educational topic offered at the conference of 500 land professionals. Also in 2023, Jake was invited to the podium at the United Country national convention by UC’s President, Mike Duffy, to accept the prestigious Genesis Award for the top marketing office in the entire international franchise of over 500 offices.

Jake Hubbell–Colorado’s Youngest Accredited Land Consultant

Awarded by the Realtors Land Institute, the Accredited Land Consultant designation is one of the most prestigious designations in the entire real estate profession. Jake Hubbell is the youngest RLI member licensed in Colorado to earn the prestigious designation, which proves a higher proficiency in land sales, mineral rights, 1031 exchanges, water rights, Land Investment Analysis, and other complicated ranch real estate topics.
