About Josh
As a trusted real estate advisor and a Founding Agent of Compass Denver, Josh prides himself on delivering an exceptional client experience grounded in deep market knowledge and strategic insight. With a portfolio spanning Denver’s premier neighborhoods through the foothills and mountain corridor, his expertise reflects a comprehensive command of the Greater Denver real estate landscape.

Following a seven-year professional baseball career with the Montreal Expos, Texas Rangers, and Boston Red Sox, Josh transitioned into real estate with a Palm Beach–based family office. There, he was responsible for managing a portfolio of legacy assets that included residential and commercial properties from Hartford, Connecticut, to Miami, Florida, as well as a 2,700-acre ranch on the Costa Rican coast. This role gave him first hand exposure to the expectations, discretion, and sophistication required to serve high-net-worth clients.

Motivated by a desire to return to the mountains, Josh moved to Colorado and joined a Denver wealth management firm before ultimately pursuing real estate full-time—his long-standing passion. His transition was marked by immediate success, surpassing $10 million in sales in his first year. Since then, he has closed approximately $700 million in residential real estate transactions. As one of the original agents selected to launch Compass in Denver, Josh continues to be recognized for his leadership, analytical approach, negotiation skill, and intimate understanding of Colorado’s most sought-after markets. His clientele includes sophisticated investors, financial executives, and professional athletes who rely on his strategic guidance and discretion.

Josh lives in Golden with his wife, Allison, and their two dogs, Hank and Maia. Outside of real estate, he is an avid skier, hiker, climber, trail runner, and fitness enthusiast—fully embracing the mountain lifestyle that inspires his work and strengthens his connection to the communities he serves.

"The McKinley Group at Compass provided us with unparalleled support and guidance - we cannot recommend them enough! Josh, Emily, and Lindsey helped us navigate a crazy seller's market as first-time home buyers, providing us the experience and insight we needed to get an offer accepted in our preferred neighborhood. Beyond the support of this awesome team, we also received recommendations for many other resources in the housing industry (lenders, contractors, architects, etc.). Whatever projects you have in mind for a home, this team has a perspective to share and the connections throughout Denver to address whatever you're looking to do. The team worked together to take us to countless house showings over many weeks, and gave us their honest opinions throughout the process. We received tough advice when we needed to hear it without feeling pressured to make any decisions we were uncomfortable with. After our offer was accepted, they coordinated all of our appointments throughout the inspection process all the way through closing. With this team, you receive white-glove service from people who genuinely care about getting you into your next home. Thank you, McKinley Group for getting us into our dream neighborhood! We can't thank you enough!"
