History
The Everitt Real Estate Center was established in October 2000 with a grant from the Mortgage Bankers Association. In 2004, Eric Holsapple and Don Marostica alumni and owners of Loveland Commercial, LLC donated $1.5 million to create the Loveland Commercial Endowed Chair in Real Estate. In August of 2005, Bob and Joyce Everitt and Everitt Companies pledged to donate $2.4 million to support their goal to set the standard in teaching, research, service and extension for the benefit of Colorado. The Center is supported solely from membership fees, event profits and donations.
