What makes Jason Lyman with The Cutting Edge, Realtors a good neighbor?
From snowboards to sold signs, Jason Lyman's journey into real estate defies conventional wisdom. What began as a chance encounter at an open house transformed into a thriving career built entirely on personal referrals and genuine connections.
"Every morning I wake up unemployed," Jason reveals with surprising candor about the commission-based nature of his work. This refreshing perspective comes from someone who abandoned a secure government position to pursue his passion, making this conversation particularly valuable for anyone contemplating a similar leap of faith. As a residential realtor with The Cutting Edge, Realtors in Colorado Springs, Jason dismantles the myth that real estate success comes easily, especially in today's shifting market.
The conversation takes fascinating turns through Jason's integration of his CrossFit community connections into his business strategy, sponsoring the Purple Mountain Throwdown competition, and finding fulfillment through understanding clients' deeper motivations rather than focusing solely on transactions. His personal journey through divorce while transitioning careers demonstrates remarkable resilience and vision—proving sometimes the riskiest decisions lead to the greatest rewards.
