Chris Myers is a Managing Director at Cushman & Wakefield | Colorado Springs Commercial, where he focuses on leasing, selling, and repositioning office, flex, industrial, and value add properties throughout the Pikes Peak region. He works with building owners and landlords across submarkets like North Nevada, the Garden of the Gods corridor, areas serving local defense and DOD contractors, and Southeast Colorado Springs and the Airport area around Peak Innovation Park, helping companies that support local military bases and the aerospace and defense ecosystem lease and sell space, improve occupancy, and strengthen long term asset value.
Over more than a decade in brokerage, Chris has completed over 500 transactions and more than $100 million in closed volume. He advises local and out of state owners on leasing and sales strategies for office buildings, owner user industrial and flex properties, and value add investments in Colorado Springs and the broader Pikes Peak region. His clients range from closely held local businesses to regional and institutional investors, and he is often involved in assignments with complex ownership structures, adaptive reuse, and long term repositioning.
A third generation Colorado Springs native, Chris grew up in the family business his grandfather started, a long running local company built on selling sewing and embroidery machines. Watching his family take care of customers in a small business setting taught him the basics that still drive his work today: answer the phone, tell the truth, follow through, and treat people like they matter. Those early lessons shape how he works with owners and tenants now, with clear communication, practical advice, and hands on involvement from first conversation through closing.
As part of an independently owned and operated member of the Cushman & Wakefield Alliance, Chris blends a boutique Colorado Springs brokerage feel with the reach and tools of a global firm. Owners and investors get deep local market knowledge and relationships, backed by Cushman & Wakefield research, technology, and an extended network of real estate professionals. That combination helps clients position buildings competitively, attract and retain tenants, and execute sale and disposition strategies with better information and broader exposure.
His path into commercial real estate was shaped by a life that demanded resilience early. Chris lost his dad when he was young, which gave him a strong sense of drive and independence. In high school he raced UCI downhill and 4X professionally around North America, finishing school online through BYU while traveling most of the year. His first pro race was at Crankworx in Whistler against riders like Brian Lopes, where he quickly learned that being a pro on a bike looks very different financially than most pro sports. At 23 he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and had to relearn how to walk and use his hands, which sharpened his perspective on what actually matters. That mix of experiences shows up in how he works with building owners and tenants today: steady under pressure, straightforward, and focused on helping people make clear decisions.
Outside of brokerage, Chris is an avid nonprofit and event photographer and has been actively involved with the National Multiple Sclerosis Society’s Colorado Wyoming Chapter, donating his time to events such as Walk MS, Hike MS, and Bike MS. His family is deeply rooted in small business, service, and giving back. His mom founded and runs Who Gives a Scrap Colorado, a donation based creative reuse store in Colorado Springs that has diverted nearly one million pounds of creative materials from local landfills while supporting local artists and makers. That same care for the community runs through Chris’s work with property owners, tenants, and investors. He enjoys downhill mountain biking, gravel adventures, golf, and preserving Colorado Springs history. When he is not working, he is usually on the trails behind his house on South Cheyenne Mountain and Old Stage Road or chipping away at restoring The Craggy Nook, his historic home in Colorado Springs.
