Gunnison "Gunny" Pagnotta is a Colorado real estate veteran of more than twenty years, whose work is shaped by integrity, deep local roots, and a lifetime spent on the land he now helps others call home. A native of Rye, he learned early what real work ethic looks like - ranching, farming, fencing, irrigating, and caring for the land and the animals. That lived experience gives his clients something rare: a guide who doesn't just know rural property, but understands it in a way only a rugged, hands on life can teach.

With more than two decades of real estate experience and a strong record of successful closings across Pueblo, Colorado City, Rye, Walsenburg , La Veta, Cuchara and beyond. Gunny is known for his energy, honesty, and unwavering follow through. Clients trust him because he listens with patience, communicates with clarity, and stands firm in the steadiness, kindness, and compassion people remember.

A retired educator and lifelong learner, Gunny recently completed the Realtor's Land Institute boot camp — a nationwide network of go getters who share his love for the land. Through national gatherings and Colorado chapter trainings, he stays connected to a community where teaching comes naturally, and where networking and shared expertise create powerful marketing and sales opportunities for land, ranch, recreational, and luxury properties.

Off the clock, Gunny is a devoted husband and father of five who feels most at home outdoors, improving land, exploring the mountains, and staying connected to the land he loves.

Hi, I'm Trey Zupancic, a lifelong Southern Colorado native with a passion for real estate. After five years in the fire service, I bring calm under pressure and a people-first mindset to every transaction. My goal is to help clients achieve their dreams - whether buying or selling through trust, integrity, and exceptional service.

Outside of work, I'm a proud husband and father. My wife Makayla and I are high school sweethearts, going strong for over 11 years. She recently graduated and now works as an X-ray tech, and together we've built a life from the ground up with our two boys, Tayson (6) and Owen (5). They're full of energy, love the outdoors, and are sports fanatics. Tayson's all about T-ball and football, while Owen lives for soccer. They'll talk your ear off, but their kindness and curiosity make every moment with them a joy.

I love exploring Colorado's natural beauty - hiking, camping, or just taking in the views. That deep connection to our community drives my commitment to helping others find their place here too.
