No cost to participating employers.

Moving to Colorado yourself? I'm moving to Colorado

The core idea

Not just relocation. A personalized housing plan.

Every relocating employee has a different situation. Some are ready to buy immediately. Others need to sell their current home first. Some want to rent for six months while they learn the area. Others may need a furnished, month to month rental while they get settled.

We help them figure out what makes the most sense for their situation, rather than pushing them toward a particular type of housing.

Buy now

For employees who are ready to purchase a home in Colorado.

Rent

For employees who want to rent, whether that is while they get to know the area or simply because renting is what fits.

Temporary housing

For employees who need furnished or short term housing while they transition.

Still deciding

For candidates who are not sure whether Colorado is the right fit and want to better understand housing, commute, neighborhoods, and cost of living before making the move.

Why this matters to recruiters

Make the move easier for your candidates

Accepting a job in another state involves a great deal more than accepting the position. While your candidate is weighing the offer, they are usually working through a second list entirely.

Your recruiting team does not have to answer those questions. We can become the local Colorado housing resource your candidates turn to throughout the relocation process.

How it works

From job offer to feeling at home

Four steps, and only the introduction is yours.

Step one

Understand their situation

We talk with the employee about their job location, family, budget, current home, timeline, and priorities.

Step two

Build their housing plan

We help them evaluate whether buying, renting, temporary housing, or another approach makes the most sense.

Step three

Explore Colorado

We help identify communities based on commute, schools, lifestyle, budget, and housing preferences.

Step four

Get them settled

Whether they rent an apartment, move into temporary housing, or purchase a home, we help them navigate the next steps and connect with appropriate local resources.

Introduce your candidate. We'll take it from there.

The part that matters most

What if they're not ready to buy?

That's okay.

A new job doesn't mean someone has to immediately purchase a home. We can help relocating employees explore:

Furnished month to month housing
Short term rentals
Traditional apartment rentals
Temporary housing while selling their current home
Buying immediately when the timing is right

The goal isn't to sell them a house. The goal is to help them make the right housing decision for their situation.

Housing support

Whatever their housing situation, we can help

Home buying

Help employees understand the Colorado home buying process, explore neighborhoods, connect with local professionals, and search for homes when they're ready.

Apartment & rental search

Help employees navigate the Colorado rental market and identify appropriate rental options.

Furnished & temporary housing

Help employees explore furnished, short term, and month to month options when they need a place to stay during the transition.

Selling their current home

Help employees think through the timing and logistics of selling a home in their current state while relocating to Colorado.

Rent vs. buy

Help employees evaluate whether buying or renting makes more sense for their circumstances.

Neighborhood guidance

Help employees compare Colorado communities based on commute, schools, lifestyle, housing costs, and family needs.

Not every service applies to every situation, and some depend on the property, the market, or third parties. We will be straightforward with your candidate about what we can and cannot help with, and on questions like schools we will point them to official district and state sources rather than offer opinions.

Our Colorado network

Once they decide, we help with the next steps

Moving to Colorado often involves more than finding a place to live. Depending on the employee's needs, we can help connect them with trusted local professionals.

Mortgage & financing

For employees considering purchasing a home, we can connect them with experienced local mortgage professionals who can help explain financing options, purchasing power, and the home buying process.

Home insurance

We can connect employees with local insurance professionals who can help them understand coverage options for their new Colorado home.

Title & closing

We can help employees connect with appropriate title and closing professionals when they move forward with a real estate transaction.

Home inspection

We can connect homebuyers with qualified local inspectors when they are purchasing a property.

Moving services

We can provide connections to local moving and relocation resources when appropriate.

Home services

After settling in, employees may need contractors, handymen, cleaners, landscapers, and other local service providers. We can help point them toward trusted local resources.

These are introductions, not requirements. Your employee is always free to use their own lender, inspector, insurer, or any other professional they prefer, and we make no representations about any provider's rates, pricing, or terms.

Executive & specialized relocation

More complex moves, more hands on support

Executives, senior professionals, and employees with more complex moves may need a more personalized relocation experience. Depending on their situation, we can provide more hands on support with:

Selling an existing home
Evaluating rent versus buy
Neighborhood research
Remote home searches
Virtual property tours
In person property tours
Coordinating with local professionals
Managing the housing side of a complex relocation
Discuss an executive move
For your team

Give your candidates a housing resource without building one in house

Your recruiting team focuses on finding and hiring great people. We can be the local Colorado housing resource your candidates turn to after they accept the job.

Your team focuses on recruiting.
We help with the Colorado move.

No cost to participating employers
No obligation for the candidate to buy a home
Support whether they rent or buy
Local Colorado knowledge
One point of contact for housing questions
Before they even accept

Still deciding whether Colorado is the right move?

Sometimes the housing question is part of the decision.

Candidates may want to understand what they can afford, what different communities are like, how long their commute might be, or what their housing options would look like before accepting a position.

We can help them get a better understanding of the Colorado housing landscape so they can make a more informed decision. Our role is to give them objective information about housing and communities, not to persuade anyone to take a job.

Questions

What recruiters usually ask

Does this cost the employer anything?

No. The initial relocation assistance is currently offered at no cost to participating employers. There is nothing to budget, purchase, or procure.

Does the employee have to buy a home?

No. The whole point is helping them work out whether buying, renting, or temporary housing makes sense for their situation. Renting is frequently the right answer, and we will say so.

Can you help employees who just need an apartment?

Yes. We can help relocating employees navigate the rental market and identify appropriate rental options. Availability of agent referral compensation varies by property and management company.

What about furnished or short term housing?

We can help them explore furnished, short term, and month to month options for the transition period, which is often the right first step for someone who has not sold their current home yet.

What if the employee isn't ready to move yet?

They can still have an initial conversation and begin planning. Many of the most useful conversations happen months before a move, and some happen while the candidate is still deciding.

Can you help someone who already owns a home in another state?

Yes. We can discuss selling, timing, financing, and how to coordinate their existing home with their move to Colorado.

Is this available to executives?

Yes. More hands on support can be discussed for executive and specialized hires.

Does the employee have to use Sidekick Realty and Estates for a transaction?

No, and this matters to us. The program is a housing resource, not an obligation. Your candidate is free to work with anyone they choose, or no one at all, and they will still get a straight answer from us. A benefit that comes with strings attached is not much of a benefit.

Give your candidates a housing plan, not just a moving checklist.

When your candidate accepts a Colorado position, introduce them to Sidekick Realty and Estates. We'll help them figure out the housing side of the move.
