Ian Charles
Broker Associate
I was unbelievably fortunate to have been born and raised in Fort Collins, but I couldn’t help wanting to experience more of the world. This drove me to find career opportunities on both coasts, in the deserts of Arizona, across the islands of Hawaii, throughout the inlets and bays of Southeast Alaska, and at the South Pole. All my travels confirmed what I knew as a senior in high school: there is no better place on earth than Fort Collins. In 2019, I was fortunate enough to make it my home once again.
The majority of my adult life has been spent as a student of the service industry. I’ve learned to listen to the desires and goals of others. I’ve learned to put the needs of others before my own. I’ve learned to be a calming presence when others are faced with insurmountable stress and indecision. I’ve learned to harness the pressures of life, and turn them into drive. I’ve learned to be a professional, and share my knowledge with others.
Each of these skills has played a major role in my past successes and I continue to hone them. Whether you are looking to buy your first house, upgrade, or build a legacy, I would be honored to help you achieve your real estate goals.
Please feel free to contact me anytime so I can demonstrate the value I can provide.

Sean Hudgens
Broker Associate
Sean Hudgens is a native of Fort Collins, Colorado with strong roots in Northern Colorado and the Front Range. He received his bachelor’s degree in Finance with a concentration in real estate and investment analysis from Colorado State University. His interest in real estate started much earlier as he worked for a remodeling company and was contracted by several property management companies. This glimpse into the world of investment real estate snowballed into a degree and an incredible passion for real estate not only as an asset class, but as a vehicle for financial freedom. Sean has witnessed first-hand the power of real estate to create freedom for clients who thought that retirement, let alone true financial freedom, was never an option.
Sean is passionate about working with all types of clients in an area that he wholeheartedly believes in. The magic of Northern Colorado can be seen in the scenic vistas, the kind and outgoing citizens, and the endless opportunities for outdoor recreation. Who wouldn’t want to live here?
He has expanded his business to include residential transactions, commercial leasing in both tenant rep and landlord rep positions, commercial purchase and sales, and of course land and mountain properties.
When Sean isn’t working, you are almost guaranteed to find him somewhere outdoors with friends, family, or his nearly constant companion, Foster, the Blue Heeler. He is an avid outdoorsman with passions for hunting, fly fishing, whitewater rafting, trail running, mountaineering and of course, snowboarding.
He would classify himself as an extremely amateur but steadily improving scholar of western land use and philosophy, but it would be surprising to find him too far from one of many books on wildlife management, conservation, fishing or water law.
While he is passionate about continuing his lifelong education and improving every day, Sean is equally passionate about working to improve his local community through charitable giving and volunteering.
Sean is currently a board member for the local chapter of Pheasants Forever, which raises money for native habitat and wildlife conservation as well as an active member of many conservation groups such as Back Country Hunters and Anglers, Trout Unlimited and more. This led to his pledge to donate 5 % of every closing to one of his favorite organizations. If you would like him to donate to a nonprofit that you are passionate about, please reach out to him at sean@barefootnoco.com
Each year, 5% of our annual commissions are donated to the
Animal Friends Alliance, Bike Fort Collins, Pheasants Forever, Working Lands for Wildlife, Quail Forever, and Trout Unlimited.
