Geoff Girsch
Geoff Girsch (aka Coach G) began working in the Appraisal Industry way back in 2005 with Forsythe Appraisals. All four of the Forsythe men are legends in the Colorado appraising industry and trained Geoff in his early years in the business. Working with, and learning from the team approach at Forsythe Appraisals definitely shaped the way we do business here at COACH G LLC. We have a team approach in everything from order acceptance, inspection, market data, to report completion and delivery. From top to bottom our team is dedicated to providing you with a professional appraisal experience whether you are the AMC, the lender/client or the homeowner. We are proud of the numerous trainees, who are now certified appraisers and hope to grow our appraiser coaching tree even more over the years. Geoff’s hobbies include being a sports talk radio host with Mile High Sports and Broadcasting, coaching youth sports, and enjoying time with friends and family.
