LESLIE LEIS

Leslie was raised on a horse ranch in Phoenix, Arizona, before moving to Colorado to attend CSU (go Rams!). She grew up watching her parents investing in real estate and was naturally drawn to the opportunity to work for a local home builder and then to pursue building her own business in Northern Colorado real estate. Since her start in 2005, Leslie has built a strong reputation for superior market knowledge and has received numerous awards and accolades.

Leslie and her husband, Jacob, live in South Fort Collins with their daughter, Lillian, and son, George, on a small horse ranch. Leslie looks forward to continuing to grow a Northern Colorado real estate business based on client education, integrity, and bulldog negotiations.

Likes: Meeting new people, Rotties, Jacob’s homebrew, oversalted tortilla chips and winning ;).

IAN JOHNSTON

Ian is the rock star behind the team’s transaction processing machine and the one who keeps the wheels on the bus when this business gets crazy. He hails from Kansas City and moved to the Fort just a few years ago, lured by stories of these mythical tall hills called “mountains”.

In the summer, he enjoys playing tennis, dominating in volleyball, and riding his bike. In the winter he’s more likely to be found curled up inside with his Xbox or in a local brewery dreaming of warmer days. He barely knows what a horse is, but he hopes to ride one someday (a wild horse, that is).

Likes: Mountain biking, live music, Kansas City Royals baseball, Jayhawk basketball and black and white cats.

PETER CLAY

We didn’t have to look far when completing this fabulous team, as Peter is actually Leslie’s brother. He and his beautiful family – wife Kara and their three wild boys – join the Team straight from Phoenix, Arizona. He is now the Noco Home Team’s newest team member, officially unseating Ian with the Newbie title. After many years of recruitment by the NoCo Home Team and despite his questionable family ties, they were finally able to pry him from his Arizona roots and move the whole crew here to Fort Collins.

In addition to growing up in the family business (both horse and real estate), Peter also brings a wealth of business-to-business sales experience from his ten years in the corporate arena and an unparalleled excitement about everything Northern Colorado has to offer.

Likes: All things sports, hiking, fishing, boating, camping, meeting new people, and Jacob’s homemade wasabi popcorn!
