Mitch Coluzzi
Founder, Catalyst
Mitch grew up surrounded by residential real estate and construction. He has been a licensed real estate professional for over 10 years. Today, he focuses on improving communities one (or a few) houses at a time. Sell Now Iowa was designed to provide people with an easy solution to their housing headaches. For completed flips, Sell Now Iowa hosts a neighborhood party complete with free food, a bounce house, and good conversation. “It’s a fun way to engage people and remind the team that we do it for the community rather than the dollars,” says Mitch.
With a track record of honest and successful business practices, Mitch has grown into a respected expert in the local market. His largest project was the 21 unit apartment building that was (fully and completely!) remodeled and recently sold to a one-of-a-kind investor who has the local connections to take the building from good to great.
If you’ve met Mitch personally you may have noticed that real estate is both his profession and hobby, but he also enjoys spending time with his wife and three daughters (yes, THREE girls!!).
Bob Coluzzi
Chief Construction Field Director
Bob manages all things construction and renovation. He spends his days on the job site mentoring crew members, planning projects, running the heavy machinery, and doing any work that needs to be done.
When not on the jobsite, he has a couple of grandkids to keep him busy.
Jen Lambert
Chief Operating Officer
Originally from Northwest Indiana, Jen moved to Des Moines 2014 and quickly fell in love with Iowa. After earning a bachelor’s in Marketing (Direct and Interactive track) from Drake University, she began her career at Coluzzi Real Estate. She has had the privilege of watching the team grow and specialize to finally form Sell Now Iowa where she handles company forecasting as well as all things paperwork.
She currently lives near downtown Des Moines with her husband, Jon, and two cats, Stanley and Doug. Stanley was adopted in the traditional manner while Doug was found cold and alone on one of our job sites. Bob rescued him and after a short stint as an office cat, he is now comfortably settled in at Jen’s house.
Kelly Coluzzi
Office Administrator
As the mother of Mitch and wife of Bob, you can imagine the skills she has picked up while heading the accounting and bookkeeping at Sell Now Iowa. If it weren’t for her lovely granddaughters keeping her in Iowa, Kelly might pack up and move to the beach year round!
Jessie Echterling
Graphics and Potlucks
After leaving the medical field to fit in more family time, Jessie found the perfect role working with her husband, Mitch Coluzzi, and sister, Jen Lambert. She manages the creative content and schedules office potlucks and events.
Jessie’s hobbies include baking cookies and cakes, rollerblading, and nerding out at almost any museum. Despite being immensely in love with the city of Des Moines, she plans elaborate annual road trips for Mitch and their three girls.
Erick Schuldt
Phone Analyst & Transaction Coordinator
When you call Sell Now Iowa, you’ll most likely speak with Erick. He is relatable, friendly, and has a great sense of humor. Besides phone duties, Erick takes his job as Mitch’s uncle very seriously by keeping the office vibe light using frequent jokes and the occasional Nerf battle.
