Lauren Schneider

REALTOR®/Owner

I have lived in Colorado Springs since 1997, and I honestly wouldn't live anywhere else. I grew up figure skating competitively at the Broadmoor World Arena, I am a proud Cheyenne Mountain High School alum, and an even prouder graduate of the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs. My husband, Grant, and I met in Colorado Springs and chose this beautiful town to raise our family. We have an 8 year old daughter, Brooke, a 6 year old son, Braeden, a 3 year old daughter, Brynn, and a 1 year old boy, Breck. They are the absolute loves of our lives. After spending seven years in the banking world, I made the transition to real estate. I had a strong desire to make a career change that would enable me to help other families, while having the ability to still be there for my family as well. I am extremely passionate about helping the military, as I have family members that serve, and I also know that without the military Colorado Springs wouldn't be half of the amazing city it is. It is my pleasure to help serve your families with your real estate needs, just as you so graciously serve us.

In 2016, I closed 98 transactions and ranked in the top 1.5% of all agents in Colorado Springs. I earned the RE/MAX Chairman's Club award and the Quantum Leap award. More importantly, I earned the trust and respect of 98 clients, many of whom have become close friends. In 2017, I, and my team, closed over 210 transactions. I earned RE/MAX's Hall of Fame award in 2017. In 2018, I, and my team, again closed over 200 transactions, and in 2019, we closed a record 224 transactions. We were the top RE/MAX team in Colorado Springs in 2019, and most recently, top 10 in the country. In 2020, we closed over 250 transactions, and made the move to an incredibly innovative brokerage, eXp Realty. In 2021, my team and I are closing 1 transaction a day, to finish the year at 365 clients served, and in 2022 we helped over 390 families buy and sell! We are very proud to be MilitaryHomeSearch.com brokered by eXp Realty.

I now rank in the top 0.1% of all agents in Colorado Springs. My clients become my friends and family, and I love becoming part of their lives. I truly love what I do, and can't wait to help with all of your real estate needs.


Erica Archambault

REALTOR®

I grew up an hour outside of Boston in a small town. For 17 years I was a competitive figure skater and was a member of Team USA for 7 years. After moving to Colorado Springs from Boston in 2003 to continue training, I realized this was the only place I would ever want to live. There is nothing like the clear blue skies and friendly atmosphere this city provides.

I graduated from Cheyenne Mountain High School and then went on to pursue a degree in Sports Health and Wellness Promotion at UCCS. I was a figure skating coach for 12 years at the Broadmoor World Arena before making a career change to real estate.

Growing up in this military-rich town and having so many friends whose family members were in the military really made me want to pursue a career in helping our hometown heroes and their families find their homes. It’s so rewarding to be able to help those who put their lives on the line day after day to protect our country. I have found the career I love and am passionate about, and I can’t wait to help you find your home!

Charles Beaton

REALTOR®

GET EXCITED! If you’re reading this, I am guessing you’re in the market to buy or sell a property. You can stop your search here! MilitaryHomeSearch.com is at your service.

For several years I have always loved the idea of getting into real estate, but I never thought I would actually do it. After serving 9 years in the Active Component United States Army, I found a home with Military Home Search. I married my wife Laura Leigh Beaton in 2013 shortly after meeting in college. We both went active duty and since then we had 3 beautiful boys, Vincent, Bruce and Charles III “Charlie”. Of all my accomplishments, nothing compares to my family and that’s what I am most proud of.

I moved to Colorado Springs in November of 2018 and I never looked back. I am originally from Minnesota and attended college in Wisconsin before beginning my journey serving in the military starting as a Private First Class in the Wisconsin National Guard. I joined ROTC, went active duty and would find my calling as an Infantry Officer over the next four years with the coveted 101st Airborne Division. I was a branch detailed officer and went to the Captains Career Course to be a Signal Officer. I spent the last 3 years of my active duty career doing just that. I currently serve in the reserve capacity.

I plan to set in my roots in Colorado indefinitely, what is there not to love about this city! I am an avid hockey player and this is my true passion. I am fortunate enough to play 2 or more times a week here in Colorado Springs. I currently play on the United States All Army Hockey Team started in 2017. We have won Gold and Silver Medals in the Baltic Military Winter Games over the past few years. I have never been more proud to represent my Military and my Country on the ice overseas.

In all the experiences that I have had in and out on the military, on and off the ice, good or bad, the most valuable lesson learned is how to “Win”. I can tell you without a doubt that this team and I will work for you and always be in your corner. When I PCS’d to Fort Carson, I had the pleasure of purchasing my home through MilitaryHomeSearch.com and I knew right away that I wanted to be a part of this team. Allow us to take care of your real estate needs in any capacity. You can count on us to take care of you and your families with potentially one of the largest financial transaction of your life. I look forward to working with you!

Katlyn Gauthier

REALTOR®

I am originally from Lansing, Michigan and graduated from Central Michigan University, where I earned a BS in Sociology and Public Administration. After graduating, I moved to Raleigh, North Carolina, and spent 3 years working for the State of North Carolina in Courthouse Administration. While this provided me with the ability to connect with people everyday, I wanted a career path that I could take anywhere as a military spouse. I made the leap into real estate and haven't looked back!

I spent 2 years with RE/MAX in the Fayetteville/Fort Bragg, NC real estate market and worked extensively with military and former military clientele. My husband was transferred to Fort Carson to join 10th Special Forces Group and we couldn't be happier to call Colorado Springs our home. We used the Military Home Search Team to purchase our house and were blown away by the professionalism, hard work and diligence of the MHS Team! It was a no-brainer decision to join the Military Home Search Team to help other families buy and sell their homes.

As a military spouse myself, I understand the stresses of a PCS move and will do everything I can to mitigate the pressures of a relocation. I am extremely detail-oriented and dedicated to ensuring my clients have a smooth and stress-free transaction in both buying and selling. I enjoy building strong, personal relationships with all of my clients and leaving each transaction with new friends. My experience and passion for real estate has helped give me the ability to overcome obstacles, and successfully close sales, whilst ensuring all my client's needs and desires are achieved. I'm excited to work with you!

Tiger Yates

REALTOR®

Hello, my name is Tiger Yates. Yes, you read that right, it really is Tiger. I am originally from the sunny state of Florida. Family plays a central role in my life, and I am happily married to Jessica Yates, a fellow team member, and blessed with two wonderful children, Hunter (14) and Hailey (12).

I am now retired after a 22-year career in the U.S. Army, where I served as an accomplished AH-64D Apache helicopter pilot, and now have decided to embark on a new adventure. This incredible journey has seen my family traverse the nation, living in Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, Hawaii, New York, and various other places, but it's in the picturesque state of Colorado that we have chosen to establish our forever home.

I am driven by a profound passion for assisting others, I have enthusiastically joined the esteemed Military Home Search Team. This decision was profoundly influenced by our own positive experiences working with the team to secure two homes in Colorado. I firmly believe that this team stands out as the best in the country.

My heart lies with people, and I find great fulfillment in helping military families discover their dream homes in the most stunning of states. I can relate to the pressures and tribulations that the moving military family must endure. Allow me the opportunity to find your next home.

Jessica Yates

Listing Assistant/REALTOR®

I was born and raised in the beautiful state of Florida. Married my active-duty husband which has given us the opportunity to live in many spectacular places. We have lived in Alabama, Georgia, Hawaii, and New York and now Colorado. Colorado has won over our hearts, and we will be calling it our forever home. With our love of the outdoors, Colorado offers so many opportunities to go out and explore. I have two children, Hunter 14 years old and Hailey 11 years old. My husband has spent over 20 years in the Army and will be retiring next year. In that time, I have spent many hours volunteering for nonprofits that help the military community.

I started my working life as a hospice nurse that quickly stalled due to military moves and raising kids. That’s when I started to use my free time to give back to the military community. I also have a love for strength and fitness using my spare time to compete in powerlifting events. We used Military Home Search to purchase our first home upon moving to Colorado Springs. They far exceeded our expectations so we used them again to sell and then buy our forever home. It's truly and honor to be a part of this team and I'm excited to help you with your needs!

Jessica Calhoun

REALTOR®

I was born in Arkansas but grew up in central Illinois (Go CUBS! ). My husband and I are from the same smallish town but met after highschool when he was on home town recruit leave from the Army. We were married in 2001 and have lived in OK, GA, NC, TX and now Colorado for 5 years and love it. He had never been stationed in Colorado Springs, but we chose to move here after he retired from the Army due to all of the outdoor activities available, plus you can't beat that mountain view! Beyond marriage I have a family connection with the military as well. My grandfather was a Marine who served in the Korean war, my brother is a retired Marine, and my brother in law is retired from the Army.

Over the past 21 years of marriage we have been blessed with three amazing children. Adelyn is in elementary school, Fin is in middle school and Noelle is in college. Due to their age differences it is often like having 3 "only" children. Though they are often handfuls, being a mom is my greatest and most fulfilling accomplishment, and I wouldn't want my life any other way. Prior to starting my career in Real Estate, I had professional experience in lending and finance in higher education. I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Finance at Fayetteville State University while we were stationed at Fort Bragg, NC. In 2020 I completed my MBA with a Finance concentration online at Louisiana State University Shreveport. I often miss the active duty life, though my husband does not share that sentiment : ). I have lifelong friends all over the country thanks to his service.

Being an Army wife for 15 years, going through four deployments, his 15 month unaccompanied tour in Korea, countless days of training, 100's of freefall jumps, and many PCS's, I know first hand how stressful and chaotic military life can be. It is something most people do not understand, so going into Real Estate I knew I wanted to focus on servicing the military community which will always hold a special place in my heart. I greatly look forward to helping all members of the military, veterans, and their families in the search for a home or in the sale of their current home here in Colorado. I can also assist in finding you a great REALTOR in another state when you PCS or ETS. I thank you for your service and sacrifice and am here for you for all of your Real Estate needs.

Hi, I’m Cynthia Debski. I graduated from Navarro College in Texas and have spent 10 years in business and sales. I have lived in Colorado Springs since 2018 and absolutely love it here.

Luke Martin

REALTOR®

Hello! You’ve read this far down which means you made it to the tallest member of the MilitaryHomeSearch team. Being a Colorado native I can assuredly say Colorado Springs is one of the fastest growing cities in the nation and I LOVE living here!

After graduating from the local Cheyenne Mountain High School, I was blessed with the opportunity to play collegiate basketball at Colorado Christian University on the Lakewood campus in Denver. 2 years later with an Associates in BA, I felt led to move on into real estate. I gained most of my knowledge about Colorado’s homes by helping my father (retired Air Force after 26 years) in property management. Spending a portion of 2022 in Arizona’s real estate market made me appreciate the beauty of Colorado Springs even more.

Colorado Springs is considered home by just under 500k people. It’s about time you call it home as well! We’re so excited to be able to work with you!

Jasmine Krizan

REALTOR®

I grew up in Colorado Springs and am proud to call it my home! I completed high school in Colorado Springs and graduated from UCCS with a BA in Psychology. Before transferring to UCCS, I also spent some time studying at the University of Hawaii at Manoa.

With a total of 9 years working in sales, I spent 4 years selling homes for local home builders and fell in love with helping buyers find their homes. My time in new home sales has provided me with a unique knowledge and insight on the home buying and selling process. After working with the Military Home Search Team to support countless buyers with new build homes, I experienced the level of professionalism and excellence the team offered and knew that this was the team I wanted to join!

The military has always been important to my family and myself. My dad served in the Army and was stationed in Germany where he met my mom, a native German. Growing up, I had the privilege of spending many summers in Germany with my family and feel lucky that I have my German culture and traditions along with my American ones. My grandfather also proudly served in the Army and was a Vietnam veteran.

After graduating from UCCS, I worked at a brain injury rehabilitation center which was partnered with the Wounded Warrior Project to support military heroes who sustained traumatic brain injuries in the line of duty. After seeing the sacrifices our service members make, I am honored to be able to serve the members of the military community in any way that I can.

In my free time, I enjoy teaching yoga and plan on taking a course to become specialized in teaching yoga to military service members and veterans. I am excited to support you and fight for you in your home buying or selling journey!
