John Burfeind , Fort Collins & Northern Colorado Residential Builder, born in Upstate New York, yet he’s right at home here in Colorado, with family nearby and a newfound love for our beautiful landscape and climate. Fort Collins is the perfect location for exploring the mountains; one of his favorite things to do is enjoying the outdoors with his Golden Retriever, Walter. A good game of golf or breaking in some fresh powder is what the Doctor ordered.
He studied architectural design with an emphasis in Physics. Before college he served in the US ARMY, where the young Sergeant gathered many awards & Graduated high honors in PLDC (leadership school) His interest in building came early, as his Grandfather had a dairy farm & Relative’s were German Craftsman. John was much better at wood working then milking cows, so it seemed like the likely path. Working for his Uncle before the ARMY , while on leave and once honorably discharged, he honed his skills. 1988 John started his own company in the tree enriched upstate NY, relocating in Colorado in 1993. He loves being a hands on Builder, always saying, “we design and build your dreams”. A life-long Motocross rider & fan, having worked to the professional level, racing across the country had him pushing for excellence. “Trying to be just a little bit better then the day before” was his motto. loves to travel and has had the opportunity to build in the jungles of Peru with his Church. God is always teaching how to be a better pursuer of The love of Christ.
As a builder in Colorado since 1993, John has always been looking for a Team to assemble that shared his values. John believes in being Proactive , Having Integrity, Being Adaptable, Always Respectful , & Team – Oriented. Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength. “
