our HISTORY

Bray & Co has built its success as the largest independent brokerage on the Western Slope of Colorado for over 75 years.

Sherman and Roxie Bray founded Bray & Co on a handshake and a promise to earn, every day, the trust of their clients. Four generations later, Bray & Co still remains a leader in real estate on the Western Slope, servicing the needs of buyers, sellers, investors, landlords, tenants and homebuilders. Bray & Co has thrived through four local boom/bust cycles - uranium in the 50s, coal in the 60s, oil shale in the 80s and gas in the 2000s and vows to still push forward, no mater what may come.

Headquartered primarily in Grand Junction, Colorado, with a satellite office in Rifle, Bray & Co agents are experts working in Mesa, Garfield, Delta and Montrose counties. With 70+ agents strong with backup support of 50+ employees, Bray & Co operates: Residential and Commercial Brokerage, Real Estate Development, Property Management and Maintenance and Construction services.

In addition to being a leader in the respective areas of business, Bray & Co is very involved in their community and industry.

For over 75 years, Bray & Co has been committed to giving back to the local community - through volunteering and financial support of many different nonprofit organizations.

Provide services to help seniors stay in their homes

"Over the years, our company has contributed to a variety of organizations here in the community. We think it is time to focus our efforts a little more and increase both our funding and our leadership in the area of housing-related needs in Mesa County," says Robert Bray, CEO.

During the COVID-19 crisis, Bray & Co launched Caring for Our Home Community fund to enable full-service dine-in restaurants to provide healthy meals through local nonprofits. In 2020 the company raised and delivered over $60,000 to local restaurants that were hit hard by the pandemic, and in turn they were able to serve over 8,500 meals to those in need.

Bray & Co also volunteers regularly with Habitat for Humanity and with Kids Aid, an organization providing food to children in Grand Junction.
