every step, either language
The team
Most of their clients are buying a home for the first time, and many are the first in their family to do it. Reviews say the same things again and again: patient, explains everything, never pushy, worked around our schedules, spoke Spanish with my family.
Buying and new homes
Alan grew up on Denver's North Side and studied business at Colorado State. He explains every date in the contract, works around your job, and answers in whichever language your family speaks. Many of his buyers find their home in the new neighborhoods north of Denver.
Managing Broker & Partner, 8z Denver
Pepe has worked Denver real estate since 2001 and knows Lincoln Park and the Art District on Santa Fe block by block. Clients come back for his read on pricing and his negotiating, and some send their grown children his way.
Buying your first home
Nobody should feel lost buying a home. Here is the whole road, in order.
Tell us what you want and what worries you. No cost and no pressure. We send our brokerage disclosure first, so you know exactly how we work.
A licensed lender tells you what you can borrow and which programs you qualify for. Colorado has down payment assistance, including CHFA and metroDPA, and we point you to the official information.
Evenings and weekends work. Showings are set once a short written buyer agreement is in place, which is standard in Colorado.
We walk you through every number: price, concessions, inspection and appraisal. Then we negotiate for you.
Contract deadlines matter. We keep you posted on each one until closing day, in English or Spanish.
Where we work
Pepe's home turf
Two-story brick Victorians and row houses, many from about 1900, galleries along Santa Fe Drive with First Friday art walks, and the 10th & Osage light rail station a few blocks away.
Alan's roots
Where Alan grew up. Older brick homes north of downtown, near Globeville and Elyria-Swansea, where the four-acre park over I-70 opened in 2023.
New construction
Thornton, Northglenn, Brighton, Henderson and Fort Lupton, where new neighborhoods keep opening. Builders often offer incentives, and we help you compare them line by line.
Wherever you're looking
Their sales also reach Aurora, Commerce City, Parker, Lakewood, Arvada and Morrison.

In their clients' words
31 on Zillow and 29 on Google, every one five stars. A few, word for word:
★★★★★
“Not only are my husband and I first time homebuyers, but we are first generation homebuyers. We came in with only a homebuyers class under our belts. Alan was consistent in his professionalism, communication, and dedication to us as his clients. Every step of the way he kept us in the loop for updates, offered his recommendations to us (but never pressured or made us feel bad for choosing other ways of doing things)…”★★★★★
“Alan Pepe, David y su equipo hicieron hasta lo imposible para conseguir un trato en la casa que nos gusto. Durante nuestro proceso de busqueda Alan siempre mostro un gran profesionalismo, conocimiento y comprension con nuestra situacion de primeros compradores.”★★★★★
“My family also loved working with Alan and Pepe they speak Spanish which was so helpful to explaining to my family what was going on in a way they could understand.”★★★★★
“I worked primarily with Alan, who was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and responsive. He took the time to clearly explain the process and made the experience much less stressful. Pepe, who previously helped my parents, was also a pleasure to work with and brought years of valuable experience.”★★★★★
“We never felt pressured, and we always knew we could trust his advice.”★★★★★
“He worked with my work schedule to always make time for a house showing.”★★★★★
“Found a great home and closed in record time! It was great working with the team. They handled the whole process perfectly and truly worked their magic to get us the best deal possible.”★★★★★
“Using Pepe Aragon as our agent was probably one of the best real estate decisions we've ever made. Pepe guided us through a very complicated contingency sale on a very tight timeline.”★★★★★
“Advised me not to sell another property and wait for 1-2 years bc the conditions were not favorable to me (he put my interest first than him cashing out on his commission)”Verbatim from reviews published on Zillow and Google Business Profile, as of October 2026.
