Jason Hanson is the owner of Henderson Property Management & Real Estate, the #1 residential property management company in Northern Colorado. He grew up in Loveland, Colorado and graduated Summa Cum Laude from Colorado University in 1998, earning a degree in Finance. He was then recruited by IBM, where he worked as a financial analyst for five years.  In his late 20s, the book “Rich Dad, Poor Dad,” started him on a financial journey.

While at IBM, Jason completed the “Investools Masters Trading Program”, a two-year education program in option and commodity trading.  Jason spent five years trading options (buying and selling) and commodities, averaging over 10% monthly return on his principal.  

He left IBM in 2004 and purchased Henderson Property Management, where he began investing in property while simultaneously building the business.  Jason benefited from the 2007 housing bust, buying notes and foreclosures from banks and building his real estate portfolio.  He currently owns and operates a high-yielding portfolio of property and also manages property for over 400 investors in Northern Colorado.  

In the Fall of  2007, he noted the trend in oil prices breaking through a $75/bbls ceiling; with analysts forecasting strong demand for oil coming from India and other Asian countries in the near future, Jason decided to learn more about the oil industry.  He traveled to the North American Prospect Expo in January of 2008, to research and discover more about the oil industry.  It was at that expo that he met an operator out of Oklahoma that he established a business relationship with and continues to work with today. Jason has enjoyed the excitement and financial benefits of oil exploration and production and has participated in various oil projects since 2008.  

Jason loves to invest; his background as a financial analyst has been beneficial in the real estate industry. CAP rate analysis, budget creation, capital plan creation, and cost segregation studies have been critical to his success as an asset manager, an investor and as a business operator.

Drawing on this experience and his Christian values, Jason brought a strategic vision and a hands-on leadership style to Henderson, emphasizing both character and performance. The company is based on a set of values and character traits that focus on morale, virtue, and respect, not only for the employees and clients, but also for the purpose of building up the surrounding communities.
