About
Establishing The Thompson Group has allowed me to share my expertise and systems with like-minded Realtors, all dedicated to delivering the highest level of service to our clients. At The Thompson Group, we do more than just facilitate real estate transactions; we build lifelong relationships. I see myself as Your Personal Real Estate Consultant for Life. Just as you would seek an attorney for legal advice or a CPA for tax questions, I want to be your go-to resource for all things real estate.
My goal is not just to help you buy or sell property once, but to cultivate a trusting relationship that lasts a lifetime. I strive to provide such exceptional service that you feel compelled to recommend me to your friends, family, and neighbors—not out of obligation, but because you genuinely believe they will benefit from my expertise.
With many successful years in the real estate industry, I have built a reputation that thrives on repeat and referral business. As a full-service real estate professional, I assist buyers, sellers, and investors across all price ranges and property types. I look forward to working with you! Email me at scott@estesparkhome.com or call/text me at 970-590-9941 to begin your real estate journey.

About
Chris brings over 20 years of experience working with families and individuals to The Thompson Group. For much of his career, he served as a Presbyterian Pastor in congregations across St. Louis, Milwaukee, and most recently at Presbyterian Community Church of the Rockies in Estes Park. For the past two years, Chris has also worked as a real estate advisor in Boulder County and Estes Park.
Throughout his journey, whether as a pastor or realtor, Chris has guided people through a variety of life transitions, including graduations, weddings, births, relocations, retirements, and the loss of loved ones. He understands the importance of being a good listener and strives to meet the needs of others while maintaining a professional presence marked by clarity, perspective, and guidance.
In his free time, Chris enjoys exploring the great outdoors of Colorado with his family. When he’s not engaging with friends in real estate, you can find him skiing with his daughter, playing golf with his son, or hiking the beautiful trails of Larimer County with his wife, Rita. He also has a lifelong passion for horseback riding and volunteers at Rocky Mountain Riding Therapy.

Administrative Assistant

About
Karen was transplanted to Fort Morgan, Colorado at the age of nine, coming with her family from the panhandle of Texas. Hereford, to be exact, where the cows have white faces. Being the third of four daughters, she was pretty much the middle child (and the favorite, she thinks). Karen and Scott were married in 1983, and daughter Kellie was born five years later. Daughter Shannon came along a short 22 months after Kellie.
After moving to Estes Park in 2008, Karen was employed by the Town of Estes Park in the Community Development Department. In 2017, she was hired by the Estes Valley Land Trust as their Office Manager, and thoroughly enjoyed working with the many volunteers at that organization. After a sudden turnover at Scott’s office, Karen and Scott decided that Karen should be the Administrative Assistant for Scott and the newly formed Thompson Group. Although she enjoys working with The Thompson Group, her real passion lies with volunteering and helping others. Karen has volunteered for the Estes Park Rotary Duck Race every year since 2010. Karen was appointed President of the Estes Park Rotary Club for 2023-2024. She also enjoys volunteering at Summit Church.
One of her favorite ways to help clients is by helping them get their homes ready to sell. This can involve packing, cleaning, sorting, selling, and donating items at the owner’s discretion and taking care of all of those details that can easily become overwhelming when people are moving. Karen is most proud of being married to Scott for over 40 years, her kids, and summitting Longs Peak when she was 51. She loves their grandsons Conrad and Griffin, with all her heart.

About
Trenton grew up in a small town in Kansas, but always had a love for the mountains and Estes Park. He spent two summers in Estes Park working seasonally in 2019 and 2020. He and his wife, Hannah moved to Estes Park in August of 2022 and feel that Estes Park is now home. Trenton graduated from Kansas State University in May of 2021 with a degree in Marketing and started his own Marketing company in 2022: Elevation Peak Marketing.
He loves being able to work in marketing everyday, getting to do what he is passionate about. Outside of work, Trenton loves anything outdoors: hiking, camping, fly fishing and disc golf. Exploring Rocky Mountain National Park with his wife is among his favorite parts of life in Estes Park.
Trenton feels honored to be a part of The Thompson Group because it feels like a family, not just a real estate company.
