Jasper Knox

Jasper Knox has spent his career helping real people buy, sell, and understand property. A licensed real estate broker in Colorado for over fifteen years, he now writes about housing markets, mortgages, and property investment from a home office in Denver that overlooks the Front Range. Jasper’s work is marked by a deep skepticism of house-flipping TV shows and an insistence that good housing advice should be boring and reliable, not flashy. He’s a graduate of Colorado State University and a long-time volunteer with a down-payment assistance nonprofit. When he isn’t analyzing interest rate trends, Jasper can be found fly-fishing in the South Platte or coaching his daughter’s soccer team.
