Communities Gain Critical Insight From Our Studies

I had the pleasure of working with Melanie Rees and Wendy Sullivan on a community wide Housing Needs Assessment. Their experience showed and is second to none. They knew the right questions to ask and were exceptionally professional throughout the process. They completed this study with a presentation to the community. The accolades we received after that presentation on the thoroughness of the study, the in depth analysis and the expertise of the consultants was inspiring. I would not hesitate to utilize their services again.
Rita Kurelja, Estes Park Housing Authority
As an executive I have had the privilege of working with Rees Consulting, Inc. on regional and project specific market analysis for nearly two decades. What I appreciated most about Melanie Rees and her team is their detailed analysis and critical insight into housing markets, which allows me to make effective and strategic real estate development decisions.
Chadrick Martinez, Fort Collins Housing Authority

The information that Melanie collects, organizes, and presents is critical to our community and our decision makers as we evaluate and implement policies and projects to address workforce housing.

Melanie has extensive understanding of the housing markets, challenges, strategies, and tools particularly in resort communities, and she is the first person I call when I need information, recommendations, insight, and ideas.
