Meet Colby

Being born and raised in Milton, WA, Colby is deeply rooted in the Puget Sound area. He went to Fife High School and his first job was working for his father’s residential construction company. Helping his dad build custom homes day after day (and of course both parents constantly watching HGTV) is where Colby’s passion for real estate began. After graduation, he moved to Pullman and majored in Finance at Washington State University. While there, Colby served as Assistant Director of Cougar Choice Housing, where he inspected and certified quality property management companies to help students avoid the awful ones. All these experiences led Colby to becoming a Real Estate Agent, and he loves helping clients make exciting and informed decisions!

My Name Is: Colby Larson

I Am: Proficient at riding the unicycle

Born In: 1996

Languages Spoken: English

Proudest Moment: Making my first sale in real estate

Biggest Challenge: Not graduating on time from WSU. I had to reset and overcome the feeling of failure before taking on the final classes I needed to graduate

I Love Real Estate Because: It gives people freedom and a great opportunity to accumulate wealth

My Superhero Power: I’m a social chameleon. I pride myself in being able to get along with a wide variety of people, and making them feel comfortable.

First Job: Residential construction

Favorite Tacoma Neighborhood: Tapps Island. I had a childhood friend that grew up there and I always dreamed about having a home on the lake that I can just walk through my yard and hop into a boat.

My Perfect Day: Clear skies, a round of golf in the morning, and a sunset dinner (either Italian or Mexican food) 

Biggest Hero/Inspiration: My father, he and I are very similar and seeing him be successful and dedicated every day inspires me to do the same.

Hobbies Outside of Real Estate? Golf, watching sports, snowboarding/wakeboarding, and music

Favorite Sports Team: WSU Cougars

Favorite Season: Summer for the sun, winter for the holidays

“I think that’s the easiest it’s ever been for me to buy or sell a home!”

Brad Rasmussen -

“

We had a distressed property in Tacoma that required a lot of repair before we could sell. The task soon became overwhelming and that’s when we contacted Theory Real Estate.  They purchased the property “as is”. Within 3 weeks,  we closed on the deal. The Theory team is amazing!!  Every person we came in contact with was friendly, professional and efficient.

John and Diane Simchuk -

We are new investors to this market. We met Isaac and Alan through a good friend, and we are so thankful to have met them. They are the nicest, caring, most professional, kind-hearted people we have met in a long time. We would recommend these guys to ANYONE.

Anthony & Sarah Wooden - Tacoma

We have bought 2 homes and sold 1 home with Theory. We would recommend them to all our friends.

Rhonda & Rickey Wilks - Buckley

We worked with Theory to find our perfect house, but ran into a couple obstacles with the seller. The Theory team was always there with answers and went above and beyond all of our expectations.

An absolutely huge congratulations are in order to An absolutely huge congratulations are in order to Jamie Mc Donnell, who was voted 2022's Best Real Estate Agent of the South Sound!If you follow us, you've likely seen Jamie's name mentioned numerous times. It's no secret she's a rockstar agent! But the real reason Jamie is a such a phenomenal agent is because of WHY she does it. She truly, genuinely does it because she LOVES it.Jamie has a PHD, she spent many years working in law enforcement & has retirement. But after all that, she ended up in real estate simply because she wanted the freedom to work on her own terms doing something that brings her legitimate joy: helping people buy & sell their homes!And this joy & passion is where her hard work & success comes from. It's why she puts in the long hours grinding for her clients, going above & beyond & out of her way every single day to serve them, getting results they didn't think could be possible. It's why she is constantly finding new ways to provide value, regularly making sacrifices to help people she cares about. And she really does CARE about every single one of her clients, who become her friends. It's why the community she's built around her during her time as an agent supports her so much, and it's why she won this award!We are deeply grateful to have Jamie on our team. What she brings to Theory cannot be measured or succinctly described. Thank you to everyone that voted for her and made this happen! Believe us when we tell you even though she's already accomplished so much, she's still just getting started 😎
