Vail Valley's Real Estate Company

" Mitch is a great resource for anyone looking for a home in the Valley. He is extremely knowledgeable about the Vail Valley real estate market and was able to quickly hone in on properties that matched what we wanted. Mitch was very attentive to our schedule as we looked for houses while on vacation and was always available for us throughout the process. Mitch was especially helpful through the process of dealing with a difficult seller once we were under contract, and was an invaluable sounding board through closing. I would highly recommend Mitch to anyone looking for a strong advocate in the home search and buying process. Not only is Mitch someone we will use again in the buying/selling process if the need arises, we now consider him a good friend. "

We have recommended him to a number of our friends who have also been extremely please and complimentary of the service they received. You will not find a more knowledgeable, concerned, or caring team to work with and for you, than Ed, Brent Rimel, and Lacey Hearn while selling or buying property in the Valley. Even after the closing of the property, they were still helping in any and all ways possible. After our closing they saw us through the packing and loading of the house, lent us a car, drove Sue to the airport, and facilitated the moving of our piano. A few horseback rides, dinners, and a trip to Brent’s dads 10th Mt. Division property was icing on the cake! "

" Led Gardner exemplifies the art of selling high end mountain real estate. From developing marketing materials to showing property to timely open houses, Led is on the front end of the selling process.

We have worked with Led on both the buy and sell side and his expertise, knowledge, guidance and advice is best-in-class. From diplomatically working thru buyer-seller differences to helping at every step of the transaction, including carrying boxes to the moving van, Led is there â?? making a difference. We wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend Led Gardner for your next real estate transaction. $1,695,000 purchase and $2,300,000 sale in Vail "

" Diana Mathias is the best! We bought the best condo in Vail with her assistance. She really listens to what you say, and notes how you react to properties she shows, so she never wastes your time showing places you would not be interested in. She keeps her eyes on the market daily, and quickly let's you know if there is something new to see. The day we flew in to show my husband the unit we would likely buy, she introduced us to a property that came on the market that very morning that she viewed early and insisted we see before the one we intended to buy. It was perfect, and we loved it even more. We've been there for a few years now and really still believe it is the best property in all of Vail. She worked well with us and the realtor for the seller, so we were able to negotiate every detail we wanted, and close quickly. It went very smoothly. I would definitely use her again, and highly recommend her to others. "

We were doing this entire thing from out of town and it is amazing how smooth it all progressed. She did not only help us with the issues related to the purchase. There w ere a lot of other things she helped us with, i.e., contracting a management company, transfer of the electricity, etc. "

" I met Scot and Erica through seeing one of their listings, and from that moment they engaged with me in a friendly and service oriented way to get to know me personally, truly understand my needs for a Colorado home and guide me through the home buying process in a very dynamic market. They stayed in touch over the course of a year and dove deep with me when I was ready to start bidding on properties. They made sure I was aware as early as possible about new listings, gave me their candid advice when they thought a property wasn't the right one for me, and ultimately navigated a second bite at my dream home when the first deal fell through. They actually made a stressful process fun! I just closed and am thrilled, and Scot and Erica are two of my new friends in the Valley. Kathryn Carson "

- Vail

" I have spent the past five years skiing and enjoying all that the Vail Valley has to offer. During that time, I dreamed of the day I would be a homeowner. I met Led Gardner through a mutual friend and our relationship began as ski buddies, with Led as our consummate guide to the slopes during the day and the village during the evenings. Led and his wife Connie then introduced us to the joys of the beautiful summers in Vail, and all the wonderful warm weather activities that the Vail Valley has to offer. When the time was right for me to become a homeowner, I knew that Led's impeccable attention to detail and his thorough knowledge of Vail real estate would prove invaluable in my search for the ideal second home. What was better, Led truly represented my interests as a buyer, something I found very comforting and relaxing. Led's superb attention to detail along with his ability to listen to our thoughts and requests helped us find the perfect home in Vail, one that was exactly what we were looking for. I cannot wait until I am ready for our next purchase! Led, thank you very much. $880,000 purchase in Vail "

" I have become well acquainted with Led over the last seven years as a real estate broker and now dear friend. We have consummated seven successful real estate transactions together, including Beaver Creek, Bachelor Gulch, Vail and Red Sky Ranch, and I anticipate there will be more in the future. His communication and interpersonal relationships are unmatched, and his representation on behalf of his clients is exceptional. Led has tremendous drive and maturity. He has a strong commitment and sincere interest in positively helping people, and wins the confidence and trust of others in a quiet and unassuming manner. Led has been involved in a number of diverse, quality Vail Valley organizations that have resulted in the development of a high level of community participation and commitment that is seldom found in a broker. He sets high standards of excellence for himself, and can always be counted upon to fulfill outside obligations with this same high degree of excellence. Led is admired by others in the community, and is frequently sought out to assume leadership positions in various organizations. In summary, Led is an outstanding example of an ethical, conscientious businessman. I recommend him without reservation. Vail, Bachelor Gulch and Red Sky Ranch (Seven transactions) "

" Our experience with Cathy has been a real pleasure from the day we met while searching for a new home in Cordillera until 5 years later when we sold that home to build anew in the same neighborhood. She is a true real estate professional who knows how to anticipate the needs of her clients. All of our transactions have been long distance; as we had been living in Hong Kong, which requires an extra-special amount of care and communication. Cathy exceeded our highest expectations, even assisting us to find a temporary residence in the area while we built our new home. The valley is fortunate to have such a professional in their real estate community. We recommend Cathy without the slightest hesitation. "

We can not say enough good things about Peteeeee, he really made the entire process go as smoothly as possible. "

" Steve Cardinale has been with us since the very beginning, when St. James was under construction and we first became owners. Over the years we have become friends and I can't express how important that is to us. Steve has navigated a very difficult closing for us and has done so with great success for us. I will always appreciate the effort that Steve and his wonderful team has put forth for us and their wonderfully helpful attitude through it all. I would ask Steve to help us with any transaction that we might consider in the Beaver Creek area. "

" We were referred to Crissy from a Realtor in Denver and still can't believe how lucky we were to find her!Because we were making day trips from Denver to view properties she made the most of whatever time we had. After several viewings I felt that she was VERY intune with what we were looking for which helped in eliminating certain properties and exploring others. She is truly an expert in the valley, helping us to navigate through the many options we were considering. Once we had decided to move forward with a property she provided all of the data that supported our offer. Our offer ended up being accepted on New Years and to make things even more complicated we were out of the country, Crissy went above and beyond to get the job done. Crissy will always be our go to Realtor and we can not recommend her highly enough! "

He always takes time to greet and spend time with you, asks about your family And overall makes you feel welcomed. Steve is a great asset to SSF and the Vail area, I have recommended many people to consider owning a time share in Vail and recommending Steve to help them. Steve just recently helped us sell one of our units at the St. James and the sale went seamlessly and his assistant Lea was always in touch with me keeping me up-to-date, Steve and his team did a great job.

She was extremely thorough, was great at listening to what we were looking for and helped us find the perfect home. She went above and beyond, as we were living out of state and as such, helped us out on a personal level, in ways many realtors would not have. She is honest, fun, personable, quick to respond to all messages, and friendly. She has all the knowledge a realtor needs for a smooth transaction. We are so glad that she was recommended to us and if you choose her for your realty needs, you will be not be disappointed! "

" Lissa Tyler was my broker on the sale of my Westin Unit. She was the third broker I used and was the only one able to sell the unit in less than 6 months. However, that is not the sole reason I would recommend Lissa. More importantly, and most impressively, I recommend Lissa highly to represent you in any real estate transaction it is because of the unusual circumstances surrounding our sale. Every real estate transaction is unique and requires some flexibility and ability to negotiate to keep a deal alive. In our case, our deal had fallen apart, we had a signed contract but the buyer cancelled and Lissa through skill, patience and negotiating power was able to nurture and resuscitate the deal and actually get it done with the same buyer for more than our original contract and with a closing of less than 3 weeks. This was no easy feat. My only regret is that I don't have more property to list with Lissa. "

On our most recent transactions, Ed and his partner, Brent Rimel, were great! They were so thorough and communicated with us to insure the the process was seamless. They were honest and straightforward with all our concerns, including the inspection, repairs, and closing processes. Ed's knowledge of the real estate market in the Vail Valley as well as the rest of Colorado is impressive and he is so connected. I can highly recommend Ed Swinford whether you're buying or selling!

" Aaron Rabins was great to work with throughout the entire process. I have nothing but good things to say about him. He's the type of realtor who actually wants what's best for his client and is willing to work hard to make your dreams a reality. He was very knowledgeable about the local market, and had a great network of experts to help research the surrounding areas. He was able to negotiate a solid contract for me, even in this competitive market. And once under contract, he was very organized to make sure we stayed on track with all the deadlines. He made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend! "

- Joseph DeLia

" Andrew was great to work with.

" We had a great experience working with Ann in purchasing our mountain condo. We happened to meet her at an open house in Vail Village, and our buyer/agent relationship developed from there. Through her hard work in scouting properties, we were able to find the ideal place for our family. I most appreciated that she had a gentle touch and never pushed us in any direction. She was upfront and honest about everything along the way. Her work did not stop once we closed on the property, and she continues to help us with the property to date. I strongly recommend Ann without any reservations. "

" Please accept this letter as my unqualified recommendation for Led Gardner and the services he provides as a real estate broker. The experience I have had with Led in the process of listing and selling my house in the Vail Valley has been the most fruitful and the most enjoyable home transaction I have ever experienced. His counsel regarding market conditions and recommended selling prices was realistic and provided a sound basis for setting the initial price point. His follow up counsel was an essential ingredient in working through the negotiation process and in getting our property sold quickly. Once a contract had been signed Led's follow through service was impeccable and every detail was handled with the utmost level of professionalism and accuracy. Led closely monitored the myriad of details between the contract signing and the final closing to ensure the process went smoothly. He handled the rough spots quickly to keep the deal on track to closing, and kept all parties to the agreement happy with the outcomes of each stage of the process. Led unfailingly delivered on each of his commitments throughout the transaction. $1,000,000 sale in Singletree "

" Dear Led, I wanted to write to thank you for the exemplary service you rendered to us in the sale of our house at 749 Holden Road in Beaver Creek. From my first contact with you, you went far beyond the normal services, each with the highest degree of quality. I know the normal standard because I was a commercial real estate broker and developer for many years. When I contacted you about my house, you generously offered to personally check the landscape maintenance problem I was having, and continued to do so for several months... and you did not even have the listing on the property. Immediately upon listing, you produced high quality materials and saw that they were distributed on a weekly basis to the right people. I was impressed with your progress reports to me, keeping me informed as to who was looking and what your estimate was as to their interest. Your follow up with needed services to closing were timely and you kept me informed all along the way of any potential problems. Our closing went as smoothly as any in which I have participated. You have my five star recommendation to anyone who would consider your services. You are truly a quality real estate broker. Thank you again for all you have done for us. $4,300,000 sale in Beaver Creek "

" We had an exceptional home buying experience with Heather McInerny and SSF. I can’t say enough positive things about Heather! She is so professional and knows the Vail Valley like the back of her hand. She took time to understand what was important to us and showed us properties accordingly. We are out of state buyers so Heather scheduled home viewings around our schedule of when we’d be in town and able to see as many homes as possible in a short period of time. There were 3 homes that made our list and Heather followed up with each of the other brokers with specific questions we had about each house. When we narrowed it down to one home and were ready to put in an offer, Heather went back to the house and FaceTimed with us back in CA and gave us another thorough look/tour of the home. This was so important and helpful as we had only seen the house once. She also stepped us through the websites virtual tour and how to use the matterport for seeing room dimensions, etc. Once our offer was in and other offers started to float in, she provided the best advice on closing the deal with the buyer. We followed her advice and are now happy home owners in a house and neighborhood we love. Heather McInerny went above and beyond throughout our escrow and we applaud all of her efforts from start to finish! Thank you Heather! "

You took the time to meet with us and understand the features we wanted in our new home. You answered our questions promptly and gave us all the information we needed to put an offer on a house in Cotton Ranch.

" Purchasing our first home was not an easy task, but George made the process so much fun. We would joke that we just wanted to see homes so that we could hang out with George! Every home tour ended with food, drinks and a lot of laughs. We realized that our dream home was in very high demand as we continued to shop diligently for over a year. We fell in love with several homes, only to be hit with the disappointment of being out-bid. And we were getting bids in within 24 hours of the listing. George and his team (a special thanks to Lindsey!) were by our side the entire time. Being our first home, George’s insight was crucial. We eventually set our sights on a charming little red house in the town of Red Cliff and put in an offer. After a little back and forth, our offer was accepted, and the excitement began! Then, Covid-19 (key dramatic music). We soon realized that closing on this house was going to be a lot more complicated than normal. George even fell sick and was still on the phone with us every day, sometimes more than once, and sometimes just to say hi and make us laugh. Through every closing deadline he was on it for task completions, giving us hour by hour updates. He had our back and played hardball when we needed it and represented our desires perfectly. On April 2nd, we closed on our dream home and we fall more and more in love with it every day. We cannot imagine not living in our quaint little red house in this beautiful and loving community. Thank you, George, you are truly an amazing human. We miss you! "

I will forever be grateful for the hours they worked in making my move from Texas to Vail happen. "

" We have lived in the Boulder area for some 35 years and have been coming to the Vail Valley for all these years. We took our children to the mountains nearly weekly and skiing became our family mantra--it also kept our teenagers "out of trouble" as they (and the friends they brought with them) spent their weekends on the mountain!! Very positive--very healthy! So fun and although we had to "stretch" to have "a place" in the mountains---it was such a small price to pay to now have two very successful, happy young men and their families in our lives! We moved from "the box" (a small condo) in 1982 to bigger and nicer homes over the years. We were very lucky--but we also had one of the best realtors in the county--Ric Souto!!! Lucky us!! "

- Patricia L. Pacey

" Diana is very skilled at ascertaining what a client is really looking for in a home. Rather than simply showing us what was available in our price range, Diana took in our responses to a few homes, skipped those she knew wouldn't fit aesthetically or practically, and honed in on those which would. Also, she helped us sell our last place with an ease and diplomacy and fairness which exceeded our expectations. You are lucky if you have Diana working with you! "

- Tim & Mary

" We used Happy Power to both sell our existing home and to purchase a new home. It was a challenging assignment as we wanted to 1) sell our existing home at a fair price, 2) buy a new, larger home but not before we sold our existing home, 3) enter into a two month lease-back arrangement with the new owner of our existing home to give us time to find and close on a new home. All of this was to be done while we were out of town! Result: We had three full price offers in the first week our house was listed. We sold the house and obtained a two month lease-back from the selected buyer. We purchased a new home at a price well below the county’s assessed value and moved in at the end of our lease-back period which enabled efficient execution of various repairs and upgrades. As if this weren’t enough, Happy personally managed hiring and overseeing the contractors necessary to address the issues arising from our original home inspection report. This impressive listing of accomplishments did not happen with luck. Happy worked tirelessly to get it done, seven days a week at all hours of the day. She is responsive, reliable and knows Vail Valley like no one else. Whether you are buying or selling a home in this area, if you don’t select Happy as your realtor, you are missing out on the best realtor there is. "

" We were recommended to Happy by a business associate who had worked with Happy. Our experience was superb from start to finish. There are so many moving parts when looking for a second home, negotiating offers, thoroughly reading contracts, inspection reports and more. A lot of these details had to be long distance as our permanent residence is in Dallas. Trust is a huge factor in a realtor/home buyer relationship and we felt that Happy was trustworthy. Happy was always patient with our desires to make a deliberate decision on the home we purchased. She worked very hard on our behalf to complete the sale. We can honestly say our professional relationship was great with Happy but we can also say we count her as a new friend in our Singletree neighborhood! "

As in prior experiences, I know they'll be treated to a professional experience with utmost care and concern. Your attention to detail never goes unnoticed by those you touch. Thank you Steve. "

Throughout the entire process, they always followed up on and delivered on everything they promised. They are smart, hardworking and fun people to work with when buying or selling real estate. I highly recommend them! "

" Shane and I couldn't have asked for a better experience in selling our house. We were in a subdivision that had not exceeded its 2008 peak. In speaking with Heather about the realistic sale price we wanted out of our house, she advised us to list at $719K. While she felt it was pushing the envelope a bit, she assured us that she has a gift for listing properties at their "sweet spot" for sale. She was right. With Heather's ability to market our property we were able to get 2 full price offers in 8 days. She then coached us on how to chose between the 2 offers. After we were under contract, the remaining deadlines were also a seamless process. It all honesty, everything was so easy, it didn't seem possible that it was real! "

- Shane Gremmer

Heather pumped us full of knowledge and accommodated all of our requests in such a small window!

" "Three months ago from this date, my husband and I closed on our house in Wolcott, Colorado with Jack Affleck (Slifer Smith & Frampton Real Estate) as our realtor. Jack was our team player yet our leader in the selling of our property. My husband, Tony, and I wanted an agent we could trust and who has the same level of passion for our community as we did. It certainly took no convincing that Jack Affleck was the kind and caring realtor for the job! Jack has been a long term Eagle County Resident (25+years) as Tony and I. He has made a name for himself as an internationally renowned professional photographer from Vail Valley. His creative and inspirational photography has been such an asset to building his career as a realtor. He takes the visual world and his imagination and brings positive attention to one's property. Jack is very good at reading people. He definitely respects one's privacy and that's a challenge when his clients want to be kept up to date on everything. His communication skills are exceptional! In spite of some negative energy he sometimes dealt with from Tony or me, Jack would focus on the positive aspects of a situation and consistently remained calm and collected yet realistic amidst any perils Tony and I might be feeling. We value that positive momentum Jack brought to this relationship! Jack has such a strong work ethic. When "called to action," he was efficient in every aspect and had such a strong marketing plan in selling our house! Those organizational skills don't happen without a lot of time and hard work. He designed a thorough portfolio for Tony and I containing any and every document we needed for reference in the sale of our property. We really appreciated the time and energy Jack put forth in that project! Jack "crushes it" when going above and beyond the call of duty. He even shoveled our deck with its 27 snow packed stairs when Tony and I were out of town. One thing's for sure, an expert realtor does so much more than putting a FOR SALE sign on your property. JACK AFFLECK is on a QUEST to be the BEST and he NAILED IT with us! We are eternally grateful to Jack for taking on the challenge to be our marketing agent!" "

" My wife, Jan and I have been fortunate enough to have had Diana Mathias for three completed real estate transactions in Vail, two purchases and one sale.Initially Diana guided us through the the discovery of a Vail Village condominium which, after strenuous negotiations, did not close . A year or so later she found us an ever better condominium and, with her significant help, we were able to negotiate and close. That purchase left us with the unenviable dilemma of having a large home in West Vail and a Vail Village condominium. Within six weeks she identified a buyer who could close within a month. Diana also found a West Vail townhome for us to buy as a future home for our disabled adult son.Diana is smart. Diana knows the Vail Valley. Diana is the consummate professional. Her track record speaks for itself. "

- Rick & Jan

" Tony O'Brien did a great job identifying and hearing and finding us a perfect property meeting our needs. He was very good on following up during and even after the sale.

- Paul Valas

" From the moment Kim and I met both of you, I quickly realized that you were truly professionals in every aspect. As a commercial real estate broker in Dallas, I am very particular (and critical) as to how a broker portrays themselves. I have to say that I was blown away by not only your knowledge of the residential market in the Vail Valley but also in regards to your responsiveness whenever we asked for information on a particular property. Moreover, the one thing (among many) that stood out during our search for a home was your incredible LISTENING SKILLS. You really did listen to us as we toured properties. You were like a computer taking our feedback and matching this information to the perfect home... "

- Phil Puckett

" Kelly Moser and the K2 team were the best and most supportive team for us to have with the purchase of our home. Kelly is so good at what she does because she has so much experience, is patient, listened to our needs, knew exactly who to recommend for services needed with the house, and completely understood what we were looking for in our home purchase. Thank you Kelly and team K2! You are the BEST. "

" I would like to take a moment to thank you all for your diligent hard work and efforts over the last many months to ultimately achieve a successful close on my mother's home at 10 Sanctuary Lane. I don't believe we would have achieved our goal without you. Of special note is that I understand the buyer was recently wavering on the purchase due to the damages sustained to another home of theirs from hurricane Matthew. I can only imagine the conversations and efforts you must have put in to keep this closing on track. Not to mention, you did it without involving my mother. I am very thankful that you were able to work behind the scenes without her involvement due to her stress level over this transaction. Thank you! Again, thank you for all your marketing, sales and other efforts to sell my mother's house. She is very relieved to have this behind her. If you should ever need a reference, I would be happy to speak with any potential clients on your behalf. "

" Highly recommend Jack Affleck with Slifer, Smith and Frampton! Some real estate transactions are easy and quick; this was not one of those. Thankfully, we had Jack on our side and he expertly shepherded our contract along for 10 months and across the finish line! Jack made sure all the t's were crossed and i's were dotted and was quick with recommendations and problem solving throughout the process. It made the process so much less stressful (than it could have been) and we love the idea of working with Jack again in the future. "

- Noelia Hernandez

" As a broker of almost 20 years in South Florida, our recent purchase in Vail really gave me a new perspective of a buyer acquiring property remotely. We found Lindsey through a recommendation by a friend and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking to work with a knowledgeable, patient, thorough professional. She gathered all the information we needed, quickly arranged to do a Facetime showing with us and successfully negotiated a good contract. When we met her in person a few days later, we liked her even more. She has a good support network of contacts, including a talented and easy to work with title agent that smoothly closed our sale in 3 weeks. I know how much work it takes to provide my customers with a high level of service and confidence in their purchase and to find another broker who works at the level I demand out of myself is truly invaluable. A huge Thank You to Lindsey. We will gladly refer her again and look forward to seeing her around town. "

- Jennifer-Ann Drake

" We found the experience to be above our expectations. We purchased our new property for a very good price and sold our existing property for full asking price. Michael and Susan both were very professional and went beyond the call of duty at times to accommodate us. They really marketed our existing home with wonderful photographs and open houses.They both pay attention to details as we witnessed with the purchase of our new home, which was complicated by a survey error on the part of the seller. They did everything they could to make sure the deal went through. We are closed on both properties and are very happy with the outcoome. They also have many recommendations and contacts of people to do work in our new home, which has helped us immensely.Michael sold our first home in Arrowhead and sold us our existing home in Arrowhead, and now our new home in Arrowhead. Obviously, we love Arrowhead! "

We could not be more pleased with the professionalism and hard work that this team put in on our behalf. In the end everything fell into place and we love our new house.

" Cathy Coburn and Sara Steffensen were absolutely indispensable in the sale of our unit in Market Square. We had 3 separate sales that fell through due to the 3 buyers not being happy with aspects in the Final Inspection reports. Cathy and Sara assisted us in getting those objections obliterated. Each of the Final Inspection reports came up with items that we as owners since 2007 were completely surprised by. In the 3rd Inspection Report the inspector, who may be connected to mold remediation found conditions neither of the earlier inspections had discovered. This caused us to wonder about the possibility of “home cooking”. Cathy and Sara personally walked the Unit through the expensive remediation process and accomplished the final offer and sale which was at the “offered price”. The personal time and leadership Cathy and Sara gave to this process is a credit to your firm. "

" Diana helped with the purchase of my Edwards, CO home. She is very personable, professional and made the experience seemless and fun! Last year Diana helped me look for another residence and found an increadible deal. Sadly that house was already under contract but we put in a strong back up offer just in case the first offer failed. "

- Carol

" Crissy's calm guidance was invaluable re keeping everything together. She always told me she would take care of me, and she delivered. Crissy spent much extra time and effort on my behalf, and I always received sold help, advice and assurances. I believe in my case her duties went far above and beyond what one would normally expect! Additionally, Crissy is one of the nicest, friendliest women I have ever met/so easy to work with. She is a very warm person, but she also has enough confidence and presence to know when to be firm, but nice in order to negotiate and close a deal. She has been such a dependable, tireless hard-worker on my behalf- I want to make sure that others who may be thinking about signing an agreement/contract with her know what an outstanding Realtor she is. I totally trusted her with buying my most expensive possession-my home. I am proud to recommend her highly to all. "

" I could not recommend Cathy Jones-Coburn any more highly. I have bought and sold real estate in many parts of the country including the Vail Valley, and I have seldom if ever found a real estate professional the equal of Cathy. She is smart, knowledgeable, very responsive and stays with the process from beginning to post close. Cathy knows the properties, the comparative values, the overall market, the nuances of the developments and also has the network of support resources like legal and financing that make it almost a one stop process. Her professional values, business ethics and integrity are top notch and she is personally a delight to work with and get to know. All in all... a rare combination of attributes. "

" In a word Donna is "amazing". I worked with Donna both as a buyer and as a seller. She is incredibly knowledgeable, personable and incredibly easy to work with. She listens and she develops strong relationships with both her buyers and sellers. She always goes the extra mile. She attends to every detail from how the home shows to how it is finally delivered to the buyer. Donna makes what could be a stressful process very easy. I could not recommend her more highly and, would not consider doing a real estate transaction in the Valley without Donna. "

" Ann was a fantastic realtor to work with on our purchase in Eagle Vail! She has extensive local knowledge of the Vail Valley area, and we have benefited greatly from her referrals for contractors, management companies, etc. Our primary residence is in Arizona, and she was incredibly flexible acting as our proxy during our search and throughout our closing and transition of ownership. You would be lucky to have her as your realtor! "

" Heather went above and beyond in handling two residential purchases for me. She had a good grasp of the market which helped in determining a reasonable price. and which units to tour. We didn't waste time in seeing every single unit for sale but honed in on the choices that met my needs. Heather was always cheerful and happy which made the experience much more fun. She didn't exaggerate or attempt to cut corners as some Realtors tend to do. Very diligent in watching for deadlines. She expended a great deal of effort in helping resolve some post Closing Seller issues. I recommend Heather without reservation and would work with her again. "

" In the late 1980's, Don Zerangue met my mother and father and represented them in buying a condo in Vail Village. Our family has enjoyed a relationship with Don ever since. 5-10 years ago Don showed us a number of properties in the Vail Village area but we did not buy at that time. My wife and I felt the time was right for us to consider a second home and we contacted Don this past summer. He was wonderful to work with. He showed us a number of properties in different areas to help us narrow our focus and was most helpful when we decided to make an offer. Don is not a pressure salesman but works hard to get you all the information you need to make the best decision. Once the property was under contract, Don was always available and willing to help with inspections, recommending good contractors and vendors to work with, and visiting the property on our behalf when we were out of state. We are exceptionally pleased with Don! Randy and Brenda Rogers "

" Ann was so great! We reached out to Ann randomly on our drive up into Vail on a Saturday to see if we could visit some properties that fit our criteria. We had never worked with Ann and did not know much about Vail. Ann was patient while we worked through our spotty service from driving through the mountains and even provided some awesome lunch and dinner recommendations for Saturday. On Sunday, she met us on time and even more prepared than we imagined (with such short notice). She provided so much valuable information about Vail and answered each question we had. She had an array of properties for us to see and she really tried to align with our criteria requirements. She listened to what we needed, adjusted based on our instant feedback and was extremely cautious following the Covid-19 guidelines. It was a pleasure to work with Ann and we cannot thank her enough for finding us our perfect winter property! "

" We worked with Matt and Kathy Iverson who were extremely patient with us as we figured out exactly where in Beaver Creek we wanted to be. (Maureen Burks was also very good to us as we went thru this journey.) It took a few trips and tours as well as ongoing reviews of the properties that would come available when we got the emails. We then got one email about an available property that we felt could be the right one and sure enough we worked it out. I never thought investing $6M could feel so good. "

She worked in tandem with the photographer, helping to stage my home and arrange for aerial shots that made my home stand out superbly. She was highly communicative, immediately responsive and took care of things with the highest degree of professionalism. She also handled some unforseen challenges quickly. Overall, in addition to having a wonderful personality for sales and client care, Sasha presented as a seasoned professional who was able to devote the necessary time and attention that is so valuable in selling a home. I would recommend her to anyone seeking a top agent! "

" When selling my home at the beginning of Covid - I wouldn't have thought of anyone but Jack... he's a perfect partner to make the best of a tough situation. He worked through all the changes given pandemic, kept me up to date as I lived out of town, and helped to close the sale within months... couldn't have asked for more. I appreciate his honest, partnering approach to ensure I prioritize the right deal.. and the made it work! Thanks Jack - would highly recommend him for anyone either buying or selling (just sold my 2nd home with his expertise). "

- Alisa DeMartino

" Team K2 got the job done during a very difficult time - when we listed our home, in-person showings and open houses were not allowed by the Stay at Home order. They were extremely prompt in getting our home ready to sell and marketing prepared, including virtual tours and great photography. They were creative and used their resources in finding the right buyer and stayed persistent and communicative during the entire process. We were also buying a new property at the time and they helped us navigate all the dates and coordination of making that happen. We are thrilled with the sale and purchase of our homes! "

" It would not be easy to imagine why anyone selling or purchasing real estate in the Vail Valley would use anyone other than Jack Affleck. As a Realtor myself, I know I'm a difficult client, and Jack always answered my calls and promptly responded to emails, which we came to understand was his incredible work ethic. Jack's broad knowledge of the Valley's different communities helped us assess what we needed and he found the perfect home for us. We witnessed complete dedication and professionalism from Jack. As problems arose, he pulled everyone together to solve issues quickly and kept the transaction moving forward with ease and a reassuring calm demeanor. We are grateful that Jack was referred to us; we know why his is highly regarded in the Valley. We want to pass along our highest recommendation to those considering using Jack Affleck as their Broker Janet and Tony Rousselot "

" We thought about a Vail property for a couple years. Ellyn never gave up on us. She patiently sent listing and valley information.....no pressure, just helpful information. When we finally decided to visit and consider a purchase, she made sure we had the property information we needed, income and expense information we needed, and took exceptional care as we visited the properties she suggested. In the end, she helped us with the purchase of the perfect property for us and helped with closing. We would highly recommend Ellyn to anyone considering investment property in the valley. We have no regrets and look forward to adding a second property to our portfolio. "

He is a longtime local, has a lot of professional and personal connections he would use to help us out, and was in the “know” with possible properties.

" We met Lisa when we saw a home in Beaver Creek listed on Zillow that we wanted to tour. We pressed "contact an agent" and Lisa called within the hour. She arranged a tour for the next day! While that home did not work out, Lisa pro-actively kept an eye out for properties we may be interested in viewing. She found a home we liked, and went to work guiding us in submitting a winning offer in a multiple bid situation. After our contract was secured, Lisa worked tirelessly with the seller and seller's agent to assist them in completing needed "to-do's" to finalize the sale. Lisa is a commercially astute, disciplined, business person. We found that refreshing. She is a polished, knowledgeable, detail-oriented professional who ensures that her clients receive the best possible outcome and makes friends along the way! We found Lisa's work to be exceptional - well beyond expectations in every step of the home buying process. "

" Our agent was Scot Webster in the Arrowhead office. From our first appointment, Scot made us feel as though we were the most important clients he's ever had, without the slightest hint of patronization. As we worked together in the process of finding the right home for us, we came to learn that respect, professionalism, honesty and personal warmth are the essence of Scot, We've come to trust him implicitly. It's clear that he genuinely likes his role working with clients, and doing what's best for them long term is his mindset. We have dealt with many realtors in our 40 years of adult life.

" I have worked with Robert for 5+ years now and he is my go-to realtor and should be yours as well. From helping me find a rental, to buying, then selling, I would not have had it any other way. He got my place listed, and closed within 30 days, and all of the bells and whistles in between such as professional photos, on call maintenance, cleaning crew, etc. Only Robert will make this happen! Whether it was working remote, or taking me to go visit places, he made time for me and made me feel like I was always a priority, it would be a mistake not to call him! "

" My family and I have known Janice for nearly 20 years. We bought our first home from Janice, sold that home with her, bought and sold land with her and purchased our current home from her as well. She came highly recommended by a friend for her local knowledge (which is unparalleled), her professionalism and her persistence. Once she knows your needs, she will find your dream location or sell your current one. Another thing I truly appreciate is her ability to communicate through the entire process. As a busy family, communicating efficiently is incredibly important and regardless if you prefer in person, email, text, phone, zoom, etc....she gets it done. When we sell our current home she will be our agent. "

" When I started working in Eagle county I began searching for a home for my family and found a development in Gypsum. On the recommendation of a friend I contacted Brooke Horan-Kates to represent us in this transaction. Unfortunately the developer made mistakes on our home as it was being built and I asked Brooke to show us what else we might be able to afford. Once I shared what we wanted, our budget, and our interest in having a lock-off, Brooke immediately knew the property she wanted to show us along with several others, and was available immediately to show them all to us. Brooke advised us on how we were legally allowed to get out of our contract at the development and she recommended a local lawyer who was equally helpful and capable. After a stressful week we were under contract on our new home, out of contract on a home that we no longer wanted, and had our earnest money returned to us. This was a very stressful time but we are so happy to now be in a house we never could have dreamed of living in. It is large with great mountain views and with more than enough room for our family and our hobbies both outside and inside. Cannot say enough good things about Brooke Horan-Kates and all her hard work for us. I only wished I had come to her to find our property instead of bringing her a property I wanted to buy. You won't regret having her work for you! "

" We were in Beavercreek for a family vacation. We're in the Village and walked by the Slifer office near Park Hyatt and started talking to George Streeter. He knew we weren't in an immediate need or were looking to buy a $20M vacation home. Regardless, he had since interest and offered to help in way even if was a ways out. He provide us with great information, and was not high pressure. About 3 months later, we did actually purchase and close on a lot in Eagle Ranch for our future build. George was very thorough and kept us up-to-date during the entire process. Even though it was just a lot, George treated us as if we were buying that $20M property. We would highly recommend George to anyone looking to buy any real estate in the Vail Valley. Service at its finest, the leardership at Slifer should be proud and know they have a GREAT Broker Associate, George! "

He is my Realtor of choice and I will use him in the future. "

" My wife and I have lived on Avon since 1990. We built a duplex home in Wildridge and moved in 9.13.2002. After almost 17 years in this wonderful community, we decided a move was in order. On 2.18.2019 we purchased a new home in Castle Rock, CO and put our Wildridge home on the market on 3.4.2019 with a broker friend who has been in a broker in the Vail Valley for 30+ years and was also the manager of the LLC that built our home. There were not many showings or any offers for 4 ½ months. So in mid-July 2019 we severed the first relationship and requested Heather Lemon's assistance. She accepted. Interestingly, she had sold the other side of our duplex in 2.2019. Heather and her partner Jack Affleck started an email campaign to alert the local brokers. Still not a lot of showings, but considerably more than the first broker. Finally her fastidiousness paid off and we reviewed an offer in mid-September which we accepted and recently closed on 10.18.2019. Heather knew we we wanted to sell this home and not get into the rental business during the 2019-2020 Winter season to get some cash flow. Bottom line was she got it done! I am sure there were some behind the scenes maneuvering that I was not aware of. Honestly I don't care. Heather, and Jack scored for us. That is all that matters. And they will for you also. "

" We had an absolutely seamless and very enjoyable experience working with George Streeter! Our expectations as buyers were exceeded every step of the way throughout the transaction. From initial offer submission through closing, George's clear communication, availability, and willingness to go the extra mile were very impressive and greatly appreciated - they even helped us find & coordinate with a local day care provider for our toddler which helped alleviate so much stress. We were lucky enough to come across our dream home the first weekend we visited Eagle and needed to move quickly - George was all over it & his ability to perform swiftly and efficiently was paramount in our offer being accepted.

" Dear Led, Having worked with several brokers over the years, we were extremely surprised and pleased with the entire experience with you. This was before you managed to sell the property! Here's how you were different. (1) We had other initial presentations. You had spent way more time, thought and effort. (2) Your attitude was always positive. (3) We felt you were trying to get a deal closed, but were always on our side as well. (4) You took care of the details promptly and were easy to contact. (5) You went over and beyond what your role really called for when it was needed. (6) You never seemed exasperated! (7) You told us what you thought (pluses and minuses) when we were house hunting (after the sale). We would be glad to be a referral for you, but please don't publish our names because we're pretty private! Warm regards, $6,450,000 sale in Lake Creek "

" Led Gardner quarterbacked the marketing and recent sale of our home. From our first interaction, he was very professional and knowledgeable. He welcomed our input and respected our needs, thoughts and opinions. The listing was very well done. He and his team incorporated compelling descriptions, professional photography and impressive aerial imagery, all of which worked in concert to show off our home beautifully. Led's brochures, postcards and print advertising were also first class. We especially appreciated the widespread exposure including local newspapers and the Internet, including exposure on the Slifer company website, LuxuryPortfolio.com, and Zillow. The fact that Led personally attended almost all showings and open houses meant a lot to us. Once under contract, Led and Chelsea attended to the many details necessary to ensure a smooth and successful closing. His extensive network of local professionals was very helpful when we needed assistance with our home inspection and remediation process. Bottom line, Led's professional skills, marketing resources, in-depth knowledge of the local market, and financial commitment all came together to generate the very successful sale of our home. "

- Sergio & Patricia Arguelles

" We want to thank you and Heather for all your efforts in helping us through the recent sale of our home. When someone is over a thousand miles away, it was comforting to know that our home was always prepared for showings and presented by you professionally and factually. Although the home was not on the market for a very long time, your communications about each showing and the follow up feedback were always timely and truthful...and very much appreciated. Other brokers have promised your commitment to service, but you are the only realtor we have ever worked with to actually deliver. As you know, we have purchased and sold many properties. Once we were under contract, your coordination with movers, utilities, inspectors, the title company and our property manager actually made this transaction a pleasant experience. Thank you! "

" About a year ago, we were faced with selling a beloved family home. Multiple family members were involved, each with different needs and desires, and opinions about the fate of this property. The situation became hostile and contentious; lawyers were engaged; the listing realtor threatened to quit. Without the intervention of George Streeter we never would have come to a resolution. George worked tirelessly with each stakeholder, helping us to understand our individual priorities and guiding us towards a consensus agreement. George kept a cool head throughout the negotiations, and thanks to his efforts we were able to sell the property under terms that were acceptable to each of us. "

" Tricia Gould was given a very challenging listing. Meadow Mountain Lot 2 had been on the market for 10 years with another agent/real estate company. I was the major equity owner of the property and my partner in the lot, a recluse, was not cooperative in accepting an offer. Tricia Gould was very professional and personable and was able to secure the sale which was acceptable to all parties. Her effort was exceptional. "

" Cathy is a true delight!! My husband and I appreciated the thought she put into each property she showed and her in-depth knowledge of the entire Vail Valley. With her years of experience and expertise, we could trust that the answers she gave us were exact. Being in the real estate business myself, I think I am a demanding client - Cathy fulfilled and exceeded all of my demands. An unexpected treat is that we have become good friends with Cathy and her husband, Russ, and see them socially whenever we are in Bachelor Gulch. I could not recommend a more competent or friendly person to guide you through the maze of Vail Valley real estate. "

" I want to express my sincerest gratitude for everything you've done for me. Your grace, attentiveness, amazing attention to detail, and wonderfully upbeat optimism allayed my concerns in short order, and I cannot thank you enough for that. Now my only fear is that I'm spoiled and will find anyone I work with on real estate transactions in the future to be severely wanting. "

- Bryan Stevinson, Vail

" I FIRST PURCHASED THIS HOME 24 YEARS AGO THROUGH SSF. SO WHEN IT CAME TIME TO SELL I FIRST THOUGHT OF SSF ALSO MY FRIEND DIANA MATHIAS IS A NEIGHBOR AND CHAIRMAN OF THE HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION, SO IT SEEMED THE LOGICAL THING TO DO. I HAVE NOT BEEN DISAPPOINTED AS THE PROPERTY SOLD IN RECORD TIME. MY WIFE AND I CANNOT OVER EMPHASISE THE HELP THAT WE WERE GIVEN IN GETTING THE HOUSE FIRSTLY IN THE CONDITION TO SHOW, BUT SECONDLY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, TO MOVE OUT. IT IS INCREDIBLE HOW MUCH ONE ACCUMULATES OVER 24YEARS. WITHOUT THE MAJOR ASSISTANCE OF DIANA WE WOULD NOT HAVE GOT THROUGH IT. "

" We had the absolute pleasure of working with Kim, Kelly, and the K2 Slifer team on two recent transactions - home sale and a lot sale - in the Eagle Ranch neighborhood. Words can't adequately express our delight and satisfaction with the transactions. Kim and Kelly are the quintessential professionals - relationship focused, fully listen to their clients, have a vast relationship network, and know the Eagle Ranch area like no other real estate professional in the Vail Valley. The ladies gave their upmost effort from start to finish. No detail was overlooked. We could not be more pleased with our experiences. I have no doubt that we couldn't have successfully closed these transactions without the talent and skills of the K2 team. We will definitely use the K2 team on any future Vail Valley transactions. The K2 team is highly recommended and referred. Thanks again Kim and Kelly. Well done!!! "

He and his assistant, Lea, are fantastic. We are from out-of-state and they made the transaction incredibly easy. They provided us with the information we needed and we able to work with our vacation schedule so it didn't even seem like we used much of our vacation time to work on making our offer. Their knowledge of the market made us very confident in our decision and guided us in a positive way. It was a great experience from start to finish. We would highly recommend their services when looking for your next property! "

I was in a time crunch to get into a place and he helped me find the perfect place! A year went by and I decided to buy and did not hesitate to contact Robert, and yet again, came through for me and helped me find a fantastic place! Robert is my go-to realtor now, highly recommended! "

" Purchasing Real Estate is one of life's most important yet difficult transactions.......it is critical that you have a broker who is responsive and one you can trust. Scot is one that accomplishes both of those requirements every time.....I would know, we have done 3 successful transactions together in 2 years. "

- Tom Callahan

" My first transaction using SSF was several years ago when my husband and I decided to sell our duplex and purchase a single family home in Singletree. We used Happy for both transactions and were very pleased. This time I was selling my home in Eagle Ranch - the home I purchased as a single Mom 17 years ago and now had my 89 year old mother-in-law living there. Didi Doolittle was fantastic at being able to navigate through the necessary communication between me, my mother-in-law and potential buyers. Through Didi's guidance we presented the home at its best for a reasonable price and it sold almost immediately. Thanks Didi! "

" Our condo was a 1 bedroom 2 bath unit in Beaver Creek. Our realtor, Ellie Manzi, worked with and for us like it was a million plus dollar house. Our experience with Ellie was extremely positive from signing the contract to signing the closing documents. We thought we were only selecting a real estate agent, but, in addition, we really made a new friend. "

- Barbara Gibson

" Jack is a true professional and did an outstanding job for me. My property requirements were specific and not necessarily simple. Jack worked diligently and smartly on my behalf. He listened, and this felt more like a partnership than a transactional relationship. I look forward to working with Jack and his company again if I have other real estate needs. "

" Since graduating from college, I have bought and sold over 40 pieces of real estate. At no time has any realtor been more professional or helpful than Mike Spear. His main talent is to first sense and find out the true goal of the client both buying and selling. Mike has brokered more than 11 transactions for me. Each time, he has concentrated on my best interests. He has an uncanny ability to see a strategic move and the right timing. He gets very creative in matching buyer needs with the right property. Most importantly, he does not waste a buyer or seller's time going through property that will never fit. He has both saved and made me a lot of money in transactions by knowing the market on an up to the minute basis. I can recommend Mike to anyone needing a true real estate expert. "

" Just returned from our vacation home in Beaver Creek. We had an amazing time working through the buying process with our 5 star realtor Heather Beckett. This is the second home that we have bought using Heather. She makes the buying process enjoyable and easy. She is very professional and comfortable to work with. She went out of her way to answer all of our questions and concerns. She is personable and kind. Heather goes above and beyond to make your experience fabulous.

" Eric Burgund was outstanding in our Beaver Creek search during such a competitive market. His local knowledge and professionalism were invaluable as we navigated purchasing a property away from our primary residence. Our search spanned nearly two years and Eric never tired of facilitating showings and fielding our plethora of questions to find us the perfect spot. We are thrilled with our new property! I also cant say enough about the teamwork displayed by the Beaver Creek Highlands team (Eric, Andrew and Molly). This was unique in how they selflessly assist each others clients if anyone is tied up during last minute requests. We would highly recommend engaging Eric and team at Slifer Smith & Frampton if you're looking for a new property in the Vail/Beaver Creek Valley! "

- Valerie Lynn Rector

" This is the second time I have used Steve and Lea, both are extremely professional and stay in touch at every step. Being a thousand miles away from the property I purchased I need someone to manage the transaction in my absence and they are always handle every detail. In addition to taking exceptional care of myself they always invite my two Golden Retrievers in for a treat. TM Lake Geneva, WI "

" Working with Julie was awesome! We had some bumps in the process as our first buyer backed out. Julie had the property right back out there and we had another contract quick. She kept us informed all the time as we were in and out of the valley during the process. She gave great council and kept everythingon track and on time. Huge thank you to Julie and her Slifer backing. "

- F. Beer

" Chris was incredibly helpful , taking on selling our timeshare as he had known the broker through whom we had bought the property 20 years ago. He made a real effort to engage with us and to promote the apartment, even though his commission was going to be a tiny sum. It was sold within 6 months which for such a niche property was to our mind excellent. "

- Linda May Wheeler

" A friend referred me to Janice as one ‘in the know’ for high end Vail Valley Real Estate. After contacting her, we were on the same wavelength right away. She listened, knew the market, and was astute in the buying process after many years selling real estate here. We found the ideal property right away, submitting an offer sight unseen. Within a week, I flew out and it was perfect for my needs. In the meantime, I now spend most of the year enjoying my ski-in/out location and have become a Colorado resident. Janice made the entire process easy and smooth. I highly recommend her. "

" Heather is an outstanding agent--the best I've worked with in more than 40 years of buying and selling homes. She has a great sense of the market, and is absolutely committed to getting the best deal for her clients. In our purchase of a home in Cordillera, she was on top of every small detail, and went above and beyond on many occasions--not only in processing the transaction, but also inmaking sure everything worked smoothly for our move in. She's plugged into everything that's happening in the Vail Valley and offered us excellent advice on many aspects of our home purchase. I'd give her 10 stars if I could. "

- Gary H.

" Broby was everything we could've hoped for. As first time home buyers we had a lot of questions, some pretty fundamental, and some pretty obscure. Broby was able to answer all of them in a way that reassured us and made us feel comfortable through the entire process. He went out of his way to make sure we were well represented and all our needs were met. "

- James Hubbard

" Stephanie Hart is extremely professional, knowledgeable and compassionate! She hit the ground running and gave our home the exposure it needed. She was able to call upon some of the best in the business at Slifer to give us feedback on pricing, which ultimately enabled us to sell! I would definitely use Stephanie and Slifer again! "

- Sharon Kushner

" I highly recommend Molly & Andrew as kick-ass! while everyone was selling their condos at much lower prices, she got me a much Higher Price and also what I wanted. She’s so charming & professional that I didn't meet her until the close in Avon. What was amazing was that they were able to shown the condo to prospective buyers on a day basis, and every time I would get an email. Andrew was so helpful getting a big furniture out of my condo, otherwise we would have been stuck. The reporting was first class and once again I highly recommend this team. Five Star for sure ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "

- Simon Akhaven

" Stephanie Hart went above and beyond to sell our home. She is a very professional and knowledgeable realtor and the little extras she did, such as having a Wimbledon theme open house, was so appreciated. We will tell anyone and everyone who is seeking a realtor about her and the fantastic experience we had. "

- Christopher PItts

" I worked with Steve Cardinale in purchasing my home in Beaver Creek. He and his assistant Lea were wonderful. They compiled many lists of properties for me to consider after many changes in mind on my part. They worked with me to find just what I was looking for. They are efficient, patient, knowledgeable, thorough, and enthusiastic. Steve is very knowledgeable about the area and helped me think through my purchase. He also was a great resource during the contract period where I needed to find an attorney, inspector and plumber. I can’t recommend him highly enough. "

- Tye and Helen G.

" Finding the right agent was a top priority for me as a first time home buyer. Kelly VanHee knocked my expectations out of the park throughout the entire process. She was always available whenever I needed her or had any questions. I think I can speak for many first time home buyers that it may seem like an intimidating process, but never with Kelly. Things could not have gone smoother from the point we first went out to look at properties all the way until close. She was also a phenomenal negotiator, convincing the seller to cover the majority of issues that came up during my home inspection. If you are looking for a professional and painless experience, look no further than Kelly VanHee. "

She understood our needs and only presented us with listings that were on target with our requirements. She also showed us a few properties outside our scope so that we could compare value. She was very efficient and thorough in the closing process which was done long distance. In addition we found her to be very honest, direct and fun to work with. Highly recommend! "

- R.Switz

" We bought our unique and awesome home in Lake Creek. If it weren't for Heather Lemon's superb advice, we would not have found or own this marvelous home. We bought our home through a complicated process from an out-of-state bank that had repossessed it. Heather, a resourceful Realtor, found this exceptional home for us when it had not yet even come on the market. Her legal background was crucial in helping us wind our way through the convoluted and ever-changeable legal process that lasted eight months. Once we had an agreement with the bank, Heather continued to press onward on our behalf to facilitate completing all the paperwork. In record-breaking time for a deal-breaking schedule she was able to accomplish the task at hand, despite the complex requirements. She even helped us unpack! Furthermore, even though this was two years ago, Heather continues to assist us with all sorts of introductions, information and connections that help us feel our home and our community are the best on earth. "

- Martha & Kevin Milbery

" Tina Vardaman was a wonderful agent, attentive, professional and a great communicator. The smallest details were always taken care of.

" Eric was great. Knowledgeable, experienced, helpful and professional. He took his time to understand what we were looking for and found us the perfect property to purchase.

Everyone walks away happy and satisfied you can't beat that. "

" We're the Watkins from Austin Westlake and were referred to Jack as we considered (finally) buying in our happy place, Vail Valley. We contacted three realtors asking for thoughts and patience as we were not in a hurry. Jack was immediately responsive, deeply knowledgeable and asked all the right questions. When we met him we were impressed with his approach, professionalism, and advice - so much so that "patience" was no longer necessary: in a four hour drive he helped us find the perfect home in the Valley. His relationships across realtors, title, finance, and other key contacts made the entire process smooth and easy. Highest marks for this class act. "

Most importantly, I know that Diana always has my best interest in mind and her integrity over the past sixteen years is immeasurable. Whether I am looking for a new property or selling the one that I have, she is always on top of helping me meet the needs and goals I have.I would highly recommend Diana to anyone who is looking to sell or purchase Real Estate in the Vail Valley areas. In these crazy uncertain times it is comforting to know that someone like Diana is there to guide and help with any Realestate needs that I may have. "

" We bought our unit at St. James Place from Steve in 1996 and were delighted to see he was still at Slifer Smith. We called him when we decided it was time to sell our unit. He said our week 27 over July 4th was a prime week and our best bet was to sell it to someone who already had a week adjacent to ours. That’s just what happened. It took 15 days for Steve to sell our unit. Who ever thought a timeshare would sell so quickly? What a go-getter! "

" Donna went above and beyond to help us find the perfect Vail home. We looked for several months until we found what addressed our growing family's needs. She was attentive and patient as we worked our way thru the various opportunities. Once we focused in on "the perfect house", she was tenacious in getting the seller's attention and helping us get the property under contract with provisions that protected our interest. Once under Contract, Donna was meticulous in making sure we timely met all deadlines and shepherded us towards a successful closing. Even after closing, Donna attended to our needs as we had various vendor/repair issues. Undoubtedly, we would work with Donna again and recommend her highly. She treated us as if we were her only clients even though we knew she had other listings/prospects to attend to. Thanks Donna for the great job and personal attention. "

" It would not be easy to imagine why anyone selling or purchasing real estate in the Vail Valley would use anyone other than Jack Affleck. As a Realtor myself, I know I’m a difficult client, and Jack always answered my calls and promptly responded to emails, which we came to understand was his incredible work ethic. Jack’s broad knowledge of the Valley’s different communities helped us assess what we needed, and he found the perfect home for us. We witnessed complete dedication and professionalism from Jack. As problems arose, he pulled everyone together to solve issues quickly and kept the transaction moving forward with ease and a reassuring calm demeanor.

" This is the second transaction that Steve Cardinale has handled for us. We bought a starter condo a few years ago and decided to move up to a larger unit. Regardless of the transaction amount of the deal, Steve makes you feel like he is working exclusively for you. The marketing efforts to sell our condo were fantastic and we got a great offer in a short amount of time. Special thanks to Lea, Steve's assistant, who was there for us for whatever the need. This is definitely the team to call when it is time to buy or sell. "

" We recently completed our second transaction with our broker, Kathleen Eck. I can't say enough about how helpful she was throughout the process both times. She is extremely attentive to your needs and wants, and her responses to your questions are beyond timely. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new property! "

- Firelight 203 LLC

" Working with Steve Cardinale and the staff at SSF is a wonderful experience; always helpful; do anything you request; must have an extensive portfolio of potential buyer. We sold 2 interval ownership property in less than eight weeks, when sales were one or two per month in Beaver Creek. The paperwork is organized for ease of the customer, not the broker. All the staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. I would recommend Steve and all of SSF very highly!! Don Wegmiller "

" Kelly has been a delight to work with. We listed our property two weeks before the pandemic hit Eagle Country. Her creative marketing efforts and hard work during the crisis were crucial in getting our place sold quickly and efficiently. Due to the pandemic, she took on extra responsibilities in order to ensure the property closed without issue. This was the second time we've worked with Kelly and would not hesitate to do so again.

" We recently made the decision to sell our home and Michael and Susan Hoy were stellar realtors. They are extremely knowledgeable and very customer service focused. When we initially met with them, they provided us with excellent data and guidance so that we could determine the best listing price. Following the initial meeting, they immediately arranged for a professional photographer and videographer to take photos and create a virtual tour of our home. Both the photos and virtual tour were of very high quality and represented our property extremely well. Subsequently Michael and Susan created professional marketing materials and conducted multiple open houses at strategic times. Our house sold to a couple that attended one of the open houses. Once we had a contract, Michael and Susan provided excellent follow-up and guidance to ensure everything went smoothly. All contractual details were proactively considered, addressed, and resolved. Our house sold very quickly due to Michael and Susan's professional experience and strategic marketing of our property. I give them my highest recommendation and would use them again for any future real estate transaction. "

" I have been fortunate to be able to buy multiple properties across the United States. Through all of those processes, the best real estate agent I've worked with is Scot Webster. I met Scot on a cold call when my wife and I walked into the Slifer office in Arrowhead....talk about fate! He was patient and helpful in our early days together. He was creative and responsive in getting the deal done that we wanted, and now we call Arrowhead home with large smiles on our faces. As great a real estate agent as Scot is, he is actually a better person, husband, father, friend. Put him to work and you will not be sorry. "

" We were incredibly fortunate to have been introduced to Scot & Erica Webster through mutual friends last fall as we were in the very initial stages of searching for a home in the Vail Valley area. Our family has moved several times over the years, and lived in many different areas around the country. We know that partnering with THE BEST professionals when searching for property in a new community is critical. Scot and Erica have deep roots and relationships in the community. They know the history of each project and development. Their expertise goes far beyond "listings", "comps", and "contracts". In all of our journeys across the country, Scot & Erica delivered by far THE BEST representation and guidance we have ever experienced when purchasing a home. We love our new home in Edwards! Though the property was not "for sale", Scot and Erica tirelessly worked through a very challenging transaction and made it happen! It's truly our pleasure to recommend Scot & Erica for anyone considering property in the Vail Valley area. In addition to being the best professionals you can work with, they are truly wonderful people! Happy Hunting, David Deason SVP - Real Estate & Development Peloton Interactive Inc. "

" We live and work in New York City and decided we wanted to purchase a home somewhere completely different to get away from the hustle and bustle. Always having loved visiting the Vail Valley, we thought this would be a great place to enjoy life with family and friends well into the future. Initially, our search began online using the Slifer Smith and Frampton website. We looked through hundreds of homes online over a one-year timeframe and decided it was time for us to contact a broker. We initially submitted interest through the website and shortly received a call from Mike Spear. In our initial conversation, Mike spent the time really trying to get to know our personalities and what our vision was for a house in the Vail Valley. Mike wasted no time helping us narrow down the neighborhoods he thought would best fit our goals of year-round living in an energetic, younger community. After aggregating an initial list of homes, we traveled to the valley for a long weekend and Mike made sure to keep his schedule open for us. Mike drove us around Arrowhead, Edwards, Singletree, Cordillera, and Wolcott and pointed out positive and negative aspects of each location. His honest feedback and knowledge of the neighborhood, quality of homes, and local market made it easier for us to narrow down our list quickly. In the end we narrowed our list to two homes, both constructed by the same local builder. Mike, using his local connections, took us to meet with the builder to get a sense of his quality design and vision for the neighborhoods which he built. This visit helped us make our final decision. While the fun part of finding the home was over, Mike truly made the rest of the journey rather painless. Communicating purely via email and phone from NYC, the process could not have been easier with respect to negotiation and completing documentation. Once final negotiations were complete, Mike helped arrange the inspection and closing process while we were still in New York. His assistance during this part was key to us being able to close on time without making multiple trips to Colorado. In the end, we are extremely happy with our purchase and look forward to spending more time year-round in the valley. Mike was integral to the whole process and we could not thank him enough for his help from day one. If you are in need of an honest Midwestern broker with superior local real estate knowledge, Mike is your guy. "

" Janice did a great job for us. My father had worked with her for years and he left us a lot in Eagle-Vail that we wanted to sell. Knowing of this previous relationship I got in touch with Janice who was very knowledgeable and confident about the area and she listed our lot at a higher value than our recent appraisal. Living overseas she made the process very easy for us. She sold it in on the same day that the listing went out and even had some back up offers if this one didn’t work out. Overall we were very pleased with her and if the occasion arose would have no hesitation working with her again "

" We can't thank Steve Cardinale enough for helping us purchase our dream property at St James Place in Beaver Creek. We met Steve over 28 years ago when he sold us a 2-bedroom unit with an amazing village view and we have remained in contact ever since.

She guided me through the pricing strategy, location benefits and weaknesses and positioned the house for a successful transaction. Donna is a lovely woman who always made herself available which was key to me as an out of state seller. I would strongly recommend Donna as she really understands her business, the local real estate market and successfully balances her knowledge while reflecting her clients interests. "

" Aaron was a true professional and delight to work with during the acquisition process of our new home in the Club Cottages in Cordillera. We met Aaron one snowy January afternoon during an open house in the home we eventually bought a year later. We were truly just “lookie-loos” at the time dreaming of owning a second home in Cordillera. We fell hard for both the cottage and Aaron. Aaron very thoughtfully and creatively kept in touch with us and kept us informed on the property. We received pertinent information on the cottage and eventually decided to move forward with a financial advisor to see if we could actually pull the trigger. Aaron was so patient and resourceful throughout the entire process. He was never pushy and he always put our family vision first. Aaron helped us not only buy the property but have a smooth move in process too. He really is great! We would 1000% use him again. He is very kind, pleasant and a joy to work with in all dealings. Cordillera is lucky to have him representing fine homes in the area. "

Help me evaluate the property and determine a fair and reasonable price 3. Then, just make life easy---help me take care of things like inspections, utilities, closing. Nobody is better than Cathy with this list! We bought our first house in Beaver Creek in one day---and only looked at two.

" Didi is awesome! She is the listing agent on a development my wife and I were very interested in. After viewing the homes and speaking with her at length, we decided to go for it. Our financing was problematic and ended up taking a couple extra months to sort out. Didi stayed with us through it all and even showed us other homes that would have worked better with the problems we were having with our financing. We never gave up hope and neither did she; going to bat for us with the developer and waiting patiently for our financing to come through, she helped us hold on to our dream and closed the deal. We've been in our new home for a little over a month now and couldn't be happier! Thanks so much! "

" I was faced with a difficult situation, I needed to sell my house due to an impending divorce, while at the same time needing to find a new home in the Valley at a time with very limited inventory. It was a challenge to say the least, but Team K2 rose as a group to meet the challenge. Kim Fritzler found me a house in Gypsum that I love, when there were very few opportunities to buy. Then, she was able to find a way to negotiate a difficult mortgage scenario created by the impending divorce. While it was a close one, we got it all done by the closing date and I am now writing this from my new home. I honestly believe that without Kim's knowledge, skill and persistence I would not be in this house today. In addition TJ was a great help and Kelly inspired me to consider the neighborhood I bought in by first showing me a house here. Thanks to the entire K2 team for helping through this process. I couldn't have done it without you! "

He's the type of realtor who actually wants what's best for his client and is willing to work hard to make your dreams a reality. He was very knowledgeable about the local market, and had a great network of experts to help research the surrounding areas. He was able to negotiate a solid contract for me, even in this competitive market. And once under contract, he was very organized to make sure we stayed on track with all the deadlines. He made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend! "

- Joseph DeLia

" We have worked with Julie over the years on numerous purchases and sales of real estate in the Vail Valley. She is the consummate professional who understands this local market so well. She also has deep knowledge of the legalities and processes associated with getting a deal done. And her responsiveness is superior to any other agent with whom we have worked. We would highly recommend working with Julie. You will not be disappointed. "

- Ahmad Vahidtari

" Kelly did an amazing job of acting quickly in this fast paced market to get several showings of properties we were interested in. She dropped everything to get us to the desired properties that ultimately lead to us finding our perfect mountain vacation home. She had a pulse on the nature of the offers and helped us craft an offer that was competitive in the market, but still met our spending goals. We were very pleased with how smoothly the entire process went. "

- Kristin White

" Doug made the whole process super easy. He was responsive and thorough and always made sure we had everything we needed. It was a pleasure working with such a pro. "

" We have worked with the Hoys for 10+ years, selling two houses and buying three. We sold the last one in six days and purchased one in a very competitive market. They really know the Vail Valley, have great contacts here and have the leverage of the largest real estate company in the Valley, Slifer. "

- Dave Kirwan

" It was a pleasure to deal with Ed Swinford and Brent Rimel from beginning to end. Under the terrible conditions of Covid, they managed to very quickly sell my house at a very reasonable price. They were extremely competent in guiding me through all aspects of the sale. The closing went amazingly smoothly and professionally. Considering I live 1600 miles away, they obtained help for me to organize handpick and ship our personal items. They arranged for the final clean up and took all of the difficulties in leaving the house. I have had many real estate dealings in my 81 years, and this was the most competent and trouble free sale or purchase. What makes this more interesting is that Ed originally was the broker that sold the condo to me 35 years ago, and that was a very smooth transition also. The whole interaction with the firm and the brokers was a pleasure. I would highly recommend them. Dr. David Kraushaar "

- David Kraushaar

" I can't say enough about Debbie's efforts to sell our property. Our unit was on the market for a long time and Debbie kept us updated through the entire process. Once the closing process started she provided status reports every time anything happened. If I owned other property or was looking to buy something else in the area, I would call Debbie. "

" Heather Becket is an outstanding Realtor. She goes above and beyond in all aspects of buying or selling a home. Heather has represented me in the purchase of two homes and then sale of one. She is creative, intelligent and very diligent. Heather stays on top of deadlines. She seems to be extremely well networked in the Real Estate community which helped in negotiations, inspections and closing. Most of all, Heather clearly cared about me and worked extremely hard to insure that we had a good result. Heather did much more than a traditional broker would have done and more than she would be expected to do to make my transactions go smoothly. As a real estate investor, I have participated in many, many deals and I have never worked with a broker where I have enjoyed the relationship more than the relationship that was developed with Heather. "

" Janice sold my lot in Eagle Vail very quickly and at a very fair price. She even advised me not to accept a lower offer (which could have meant a loss of a sale for her) and to hold out for a better deal. She handled all the paper work and closing details excellently. I would most certainly use her for any future real estate deals that I would do. "

" My wife and I have enjoyed working with Carol over a number of years as we have looked to find the right place to invest. She has been very patient as we have have narrowed down our preferences. Living on the other-side of the world, New Zealand, made it challenging. However, Carol has made many local introductions and work tirelessly to assist in all matters to make the deal happen, as smoothly as possible. Carol has always put our needs first and delivery a great result. We simply could not have done this without her. Now its time to enjoy our new condo! "

- Charles Ford

" The recent sale of our property in Eagle Ranch is our third transaction with Doug Landin. The fact that we continue to return to Doug illustrates our faith in his ability to serve our real estate needs to the highest level. Over the years, and most recently, Doug has gone well beyond our expectations and experience with other brokers. He not only assisted with two purchases and one sale but also became a central and highly reliable resource for a myriad of local information and advice. We can’t express highly enough our satisfaction with Doug. "

" We met Pete 3 years ago when we first started looking for a vacation home in the Vail area. We immediately built a good relationship and he worked with us to see properties that fit what we were looking for. Once we found the property that was right for us, he helped us work through the offer process from beginning to end. He was amazing, we would highly recommend Pete to anyone looking to purchase a home in the Vail area. "

- David A. Sentnor

" Heather Lemon is amazing. She has successfully completed three transactions for us. She definitely has her finger on the pulse of the valley. Our first transaction was at the Westin, and she was creative enough to put us together with another interested client. The partnership has worked beautifully. In our second transaction we were looking for a two bedroom condo. Knowing our criteria, she found just what we were looking for at the Lodge at Brookside. Her negotiating skills were invaluable and her professionalism and expertise as an attorney were very helpful to complete the transaction. The third purchase was for a duplex in Eagle Vail, and we couldn't be happier with the property. Heather is very trustworthy and always responded to all of our questions in a timely fashion. I have total confidence in her ability and genuine personality. I would highly recommend Heather as a real estate agent or attorney. "

- Rich & Deb Griffin

" Being that my husband and I are locals, we felt like a huge priority even though we weren't buying a second or large ticket home in the Vail Valley. The McSpadden team made us feel important and they and their team went above and beyond to get us into the home we were excited about! "

She understood what I was looking for and didn't waist my time showing me a multitude of properties that weren't what I was looking for. I would recommend Diana to anyone interested in real estate in the Vail Valley. "

" John Tyler has a wealth of knowledge and experience within the Vail Valley. He continually went above and beyond in his role as my real estate agent throughout the process. There are always intricate details in every real estate transaction and it always helps when you have an experienced agent who can navigate difficulties with ease. John Tyler always communicated in a timely manner, was efficient and very responsive. He was consistently positive and his upbeat personality always made me feel excited about my purchase, which was definitely backed up and supported by his expertise and the Slifer Smith and Frampton Real Estate company.

- Jean Turner

" i had the most incredible experience working with Robert to buy a home. He is a thorough professional with the most positive attitude you can ever come across.

" We have purchased and sold properties with Cara Connolly in multiple areas throughout the Valley now. She is authentic, hard-working and an expert on the local real estate market. Her out-of-the-box approach to solve problems, transparency and charismatic personality is better than any other realtor we have worked with in the past. We continue to recommend her to all of our family and friends. "

" Jack was so helpful from the start to the finish. He know the entire Vail Valley like no one else. He was patient and thorough during our entire purchase process. I would recommend Jack Affleck to anyone. Super quality Professional who cares about the person(s) he represents. "

- Don Hansen

" Doug Landin is a real pro. He handled our condo sale in the Lion Square area. It took longer than some sales because it was a 1031 exchange with certain parameters that had to be met. The photography and property presentation was great. Throughout the process Doug was patient and diligent in dealing with offers and counter offers until we successfully closed. Definitely a 5 star realtor "

- cccbill

" We have worked with Janice since 2011- in four transactions. Janice is pleasant and thorough. She understands her customers and their likes and dislikes. She was professional and never wasted our time showing us inappropriate properties. Janice takes her career very personally, is very thorough and is a pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend her. "

- Sara and Andrew King- Beaver Creek

" Donna Caynoski was a pleasure to work with throughout the transaction. Donna is very personable, thoughtful, and thorough. From start to finish Donna and I were in constant communications about various aspects of the transaction. Donna is very knowledgeable of the Edwards area, the real estate process, and is very skilled in negotiations. I purchased my new home in Edwards which made the logistics of the deal not very convenient for me. Donna proactively helped me from a "full service" perspective, much of which I viewed over and beyond the call of duty. A few examples included lining up contractors and coordinating inspection visits, showing rental agents my house and introducing me to them, inventorying all items in the house that I purchased (essentially all content) for completeness before the walkthrough, and providing a comprehensive list of utility companies and contractors that I may need in the future. Overall, I was extremely please with the range of assistance that Donna provided and her level of professionalism. Donna was an absolute pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend her to people in the future. "

- Robert Quinn

" We have accumulated a lot of real estate transaction experience over the years personally and professionally. Steve and his team, including the Title Office team where the purchase was finalized, coordinated with us so well, they have set a new standard of excellence and expectation for us. Simply put, we have been spoiled. They each take personal pride in how well they treat others, demonstrate a high level of care/attention and professionalism to the client, and thoughtfully attend to the flow of communications. We highly recommend SSF. "

" Steve Cardinale and his team were wonderful to work with. Steve has long-term and in-depth knowledge of Beaver Creek and was instrumental in making sure we had all the information necessary to make the best decision for our vacation property.

I highly recommend Steve and will not hesitate to partner on our next property. "

Rick is simply THE BEST. "

" Cathy Jones Coburn did an excellent job presenting good options as they surfaced. She did not waste our time on properties that were not a match. She was also very helpful in the negotiation process. Once under agreement she went above and beyond to help with contacts....inspection firm, lawyer, decorator, etc. "

- John Ballbach

" My wife and I had a great experience using Kelly as our real estate agent. Kelly listened to our needs and found us the home we were searching for.

- Ryan M. Latham

" Debbie Gibson is an outstanding broker. I have worked with a lot of brokers in the past and she ranks top in my book. She is a hard worker and on top of it at any time of the transaction- from looking at homes to closing every step of the way. We started with her about 3-4 years ago looking at properties in vail . We looked then we were not too convinced and we stopped looking. Debbie was ok with that and did not push. She kept in touch indirectly sending her periodic mass email communications about vail . This year we decided to look again in vail and we reached out to Debbie. Debbie was ready and happy to help again. We found a property that we ended up backing out of and Debbie was supportive and never asking us why or we should do something different. She is all about her clients and finding the property that makes happy happy. She works very hard and gets the job done without any flaw . I am very picky and not easy going and she exceeded my expectations . We found the place we love and we closed on it on January 18 2022. Debbie still helps after closing on anything as needed. She is amazing. Don’t usually write reviews but she deserves it. "

" Steve and Lea were fantastic to work with and we appreciate all of their help selling our timeshare! "

- Christopher Manhart

" We could not have been happier with the service we received from Lissa Tyler and SSF in the marketing and sale of our townhouse in Avon. Lissa was professional, attentive and often went above and beyond the call of duty in representing us and our property. We had weekly updates, suggestions on marketing and solid guidance on the current real estate climate in the Valley. Lissa often went to our townhouse prior to a showing to make sure everything was in tip top shape and I am sure that is what help in the sale of our property. Once we had a contract, Lissa kept us very informed of the progress of the closing. I would not hesitate to recommend Lissa Tyler and SSF or use her services again in the future. "

- Harold Dahl

" Based on the things that have occurred since the closing we thought it made sense to add the following as a penultimate paragraph to our review. The Webster's assistance did not end at the closing. For example, they recommended and introduced us to various service providers all of whom are very good and one of whom actually advised us against taking an action we had proposed which would have earned him a nice fee. They also learned of a Suburban for sale, and knowing we we’re looking for a car we could leave here, told us, helped us check the car out and helped us get it registered. In our experience this is not part of the service of real estate brokers in a hot market.” "

- Tom and Mary Alice

" Tom Jaffe is a true pro. He quickly understood our preferences and made the whole experience run smoothly. He was always available for questions and provided valuable insight from his years of experience. "

We have referred friends to Julie in the past and will continue to do so in the future. "

" Absolutely the easiest transition we've ever had. We've know Linda for well over 20 years and couldn't imagine working with anyone else. She knew exactly what we wanted and worked diligently on getting us everything we asked for and the perfect price too. Even on our 1 year anniversary of owning our perfect home, she called to make sure we were still loving our home. "

- Steve and Julie Miller, Buyer

" Moving can definitely be a stressful and busy endeavor, but I must say that having recently moved from Oregon, Molly was an enormous help. She is a veteran of the valley, knows the various towns and communities very well and was exceptionally quick to match our wants and needs. With much of the purchasing process done long distance, Molly went above and beyond helping us not only finding a great home, but giving us great advice and pointers to help us get acquainted with our new community. She came highly recommended and rightfully so. I only wish my selling agent in Oregon was as good as Molly! "

- Campbell Frey

" Aaron and Brooke were terrific to work with. They offered a high touch service that let me know my property was in good hands. I look forward to continuing to work with them. "

" Highly recommend Jack Affleck with Slifer, Smith and Frampton! Some real estate transactions are easy and quick; this was not one of those. Thankfully, we had Jack on our side and he expertly shepherded our contract along for 10 months and across the finish line! Jack made sure all the t's were crossed and i's were dotted and was quick with recommendations and problem solving throughout the process. It made the process so much less stressful (than it could have been) and we love the idea of working with Jack again in the future. "

" Eric did a great job representing us in our home search late last year. He fully understood our desires for property type, location, amenities, etc. He was also able to refer excellent home inspectors for us, who ended up saving us from potentially big issues on a property we were very interested in. Once we had an offer on our home, Eric was excellent at regularly following up with us, as we were out of state and thus were totally reliant on emails and calls to get through the closing. Eric's got a great personality, is very thorough and found us a great house in a great location--we highly recommend him! "

- Tony Newpower

" As a real estate professional for 35 years I know how important it is to listen to clients and understand their needs, wants and desires. After meeting with Ann Foster for an afternoon to look at several properties my wife and I felt that she was on target. We did not find the perfect home / investment that day , but Ann persisted and forwarded numerous listings in the next few weeks. Constant communication. The perfect property popped up and she forwarded it immediately. She went through the property and took additional photos to give us desired information. Long distance negotiations took place and we were under contract without even seeing the property. She directed us to the proper financial and title professionals. Throughout the process Ann Foster kept us informed and one step ahead of the process for a smooth close and transition into our new escape home.. Thank you Ann and the Slifer, Smith and Frampton firm. "

- Steven Witsil

Your knowledge and experience were of great value as it allowed us to focus quickly without distractions. Your friendliness and willingness to help were also greatly appreciated. Your assistance through the purchase, negotiation, inspection, and closing process was excellent. Again, we enjoyed working with you and look forward to being your "neighbor" in the Vail Valley. "

- R. Scott

" We interviewed several brokers and it was Andrew's professionalism, knowledge, and work ethic that made it an easy decision. Once the interview was over he sent sent us a few emails each day with comparable listings as we really struggled with our listing price point and we hadn't hired him yet! He worked hard for us selling our small town-home even though he had many clients with multi-million dollar homes. As a seller, Andrew Cryer made a great representative and we will definitely use him again. "

" Didi Doolittle is a true professional and a trusted source for real estate in the Vail Valley. She made finding my new home an enjoyable and effortless experience. With her extensive knowledge of the area and her bright, warm and enthusiastic personality, Didi is the rare broker who really makes the difference.

I was impressed with her attention to detail, organization of showings and her willingness to show me around this beautiful area. She's a valuable asset to her company. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Didi! "

- Anne Anderson, President, SNOWGA LLC

" We met Lisa when we saw a home in Beaver Creek listed on Zillow that we wanted to tour. We pressed "contact an agent" and Lisa called within the hour. She arranged a tour for the next day! While that home did not work out, Lisa pro-actively kept an eye out for properties we may be interested in viewing. She found a home we liked, and went to work guiding us in submitting a winning offer in a multiple bid situation. After our contract was secured, Lisa worked tirelessly with the seller and seller's agent to assist them in completing needed "to-do's" to finalize the sale. Lisa is a commercially astute, disciplined, business person. We found that refreshing. She is a polished, knowledgeable, detail oriented professional who ensures that her clients receive the best possible outcome and makes friends along the way! We found Lisa's work to be exceptional - well beyond expectations in every step of the home buying process. "

" My wife, Becky, and I have bought and sold multiple homes during the past three decades as my work has taken me literally across the country and back. Without reservation I can say the experience with the K2 team was among our most positive.Kim and Kelly were attentive and responsive throughout the process, acting always with our best interest in mind and ably demonstrating an ability to find quick resolution when issues arose. Their effective, aggressive but sound and sophisticated marketing approach ensured not only rapid response but multiple offers within two weeks of listing the house which ultimately sold at asking price. "

- Jim Morgan

" Thanks to Kim, TJ, And Kelly from Slifer, Smith, And Frampton we were able to find our dream home in Eagle County. Buying a house can be stressful thankfully Kim, Tj, and Kelly made the process simple and easy. I appreciated how they took the time to understand what we were looking for. They were flexible, honest, and looked out for our best interests. I would recommend them to anyone who needs to buy or sell their home. "

" We had a wonderful and seamless experience with Tina Vardaman and her team. This was the first time we sold a home and they walked us through the entire process and educating us on what to expect. Our expectations were exceeded (which were already high based on what we know about the team and SS&F and previous relations.) Thanks to the professional photography, 360 tour of the home and targeted marketing, we sold our home for more than we would have ever imagined and were under contract (with a backup offer) in a few days. We would highly recommend Tina, Patrice and Will for anyone selling their home. "

I would heartily recommend Didi for all of your real estate needs. "

" From beginning to end, team K2 provided exceptional customer service and orchestrated a remarkably smooth purchase process. Kelly, Kim and TJ were lightning fast to respond to the plethora of first time home buyer questions. They communicated well and made the process simple and enjoyable! I'd highly recommend working with them if you appreciate a straight forward, fast and knowledge team of people making dreams come true. I'm truly grateful to have had the opportunity to work with team K2. They provided phenomenal transparency in the somewhat cloudy purchasing process. "

" It is our immense pleasure to recommend Tina Vardaman as a real estate agent to anyone looking to sell or buy a home in the Vail Valley! We honestly do not know what we would have done without her expertise, guidance and support. After the death of our parents, we worked withTina to sell our familyʼs vacation home of twenty-plus years in Beaver Creek. From start to finish Tina was extremely competent, proactive, and understanding of our difficult situation. Her extensive knowledge, attention to detail and connections within the community were invaluable. She is the most service-oriented realtor we have ever worked with. Not only did she handle everything from pre-listing staging,effective showing, transparent sale negotiations and final walkthrough prep, she gently walked us through our loss with empathy and grace. Most importantly, she sold our house at our exact desired price point in just six days! Our gratitude is unbounded. Tina is hands down the best in the business! "

" Working with Brooke was an absolute pleasure, I cannot speak highly enough of her. Buying during Covid was not an easy task, but Brooke made it seamless. We were looking for an investment property for short term rentals, and Brooke did a great job of running the numbers for us, finding out splits on properties, getting past rental figures, and doing virtual facetime tours for us. When our initial mortgage lender dropped the ball, Brooke had a contact that was able to get our loan done quickly and very easily. We are already doing better than expected on this rental property, so Brooke was right on point with her research! We would never use anyone again in the Vail Valley, and hope to be able to purchase more properties with Brooke in the future. "

- Byung Moo Lee

" Donna did a fantastic job for us. We have dealt with a number of brokers over the years, but Donna was the best. Beyond her sales and marketing skills, Donna's attention to detail and follow-up were superb. She is reliable, smart, and a real pleasure to deal with. Donna is a real pro! "

" My wife and I were living in Japan and decided to purchase a condo back in our home; the Vail Valley. Janice had to deal with us on the other side of the world and opposite time zones! I checked my email before retiring one night in Tokyo and Janice's email popped up with the perfect property. By the time I woke up 8 hours later Janice had given my wife, who was in Vail, a tour of the property and we had an offer in to the listing broker! Janice was the backbone of the whole deal and made it all happen using her extensive network of contacts and her reputation as a lady who gets the job done "

" I reached out to Molly and her team several years ago to better understand how my property fit the overall market in the Vail Valley. Molly demonstrated great knowledge of the Highlands complex where they have an office and the Vail Valley market in general. She provided a fair assessment of the value of my property at the time and we agreed to stay in touch which we did over the next few years. This Spring she and her team reached out to give me an update based upon current market dynamics. Based on their assessment I made a decision to sell and the result was totally consistent with their assessment. The sale process was quick, simple and easy. Molly and her team did an outstanding job! "

" I sold my townhome in Beaver Creek while I was out of state. Steve, my broker, and his assistant, Lea, went above and beyond in getting my listing ready and sold. Especially because of Covid issues, Steve and Lea practically moved mountains to get everything done by closing. On the day of closing, I think Lea was replacing light bulbs and Steve was buying a lamp at Home Depot. They are trustworthy, reliable, and available to help which goes along way when you can’t set eyes on your property yourself. I highly recommend them. "

He knows the area and he does his job well. I highly recommend Chris! "

- Karen Atesoglu

" What can I say that would accurately describe the awesomeness that is Jack Affleck? We bought a house in Vail, and like any house buying process, there were crazy elements...non flexible sellers, the contingency of my house sale in CA, my crazy but loving and over involved parents, and to top it all off I could not physically even be there for closing. Jack handled it all and make me laugh while doing it. He kept me on track because I was beyond busy at work and had no ideas what I was doing. He met the contractors, he liasioned, he coached, he was just about the perfect realtor and I could not recommend him more highly. Love that guy! He will take the stress out of everything and be a great support to you. "

" PAUL GOTTHELF WAS OUR CONTACT AS A JEWELER AS OPPOSED TO A REALTOR. HIS PASSION FOR THE INDUSTRY AND THE ETHICAL STANDARDS WHICH ARE INTEGRAL TO PAUL'S WAY OF DOING BUSINESS, IS ABOVE REPROACH. LEA LUNDBERG KNEW PAUL IN 1980, AND SUBSEQUENT OPPORTUNITIES GAVE HER A GREAT DEAL OF INSIGHT INTO THE TYPE OF PROFESSIONAL ATTITUDE MAINTAINED BY PAUL. SSF AND HIS ASSOCIATION WERE JUST THE "ICING ON THE CAKE"! AT THIS TIME, ETHICS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT AND PAUL'S WORD IS - AS LEA'S FATHER, DEL MAYNE USED TO SAY - GOOD AS GOLD AND YOU CAN TAKE THAT TO THE BANK!! LEA WAS BORN AND RAISED IN THE EAGLE/VAIL VALLEY, AND HER PARENTS HAD A BUSINESS IN AVON FOR OVER 37 YEARS PRIOR TO THE BEGINNING OF VAIL.

" Doug Landin is the hardest working broker I have ever worked with. I have had 3 transactions this year and Doug ran circles around the other brokers. He was always thinking and anticipating next steps and how to strategize to get the property sold. This was a very complex transaction and required a lot of creativity. His advice was critical in getting the transaction completed. This is the second time I have used Doug Landin, and I would use him exclusively for any Vail Valley property. I wish he could have sold my Denver properties "

" With my over 28 years of hands on real estate ownership in Beaver Creek and as an architect having bought and sold property all over the US, it was an immense pleasure to work with Mike this year in searching the entire Vail Valley for our next personal unit. Mike's ability to really listen to us as we described every aspect of our desired unit exceeds my entire experience with every other broker I've ever met in the Vail Valley over the last three decades. Without Mike, we would have never found our ideal unit. Mike invested unselfishely so much of his time with us searching Beaver Creek that we actually began to count him as a member of our family...

" We first began working with Steve and Lea almost five years ago when we purchased a fractional unit at the St. James Place in Beaver Creek Village. Steve and Lea made the process a breeze and we were so impressed by both their patience and their honesty. Everything that they told us prior to the sale turned out to be true – there were no surprises. Over the years, our family has fallen in love with the Beaver Creek area and St. James, specifically. After much consideration, we decided that we wanted a second home in Beaver Creek. We connected with Steve and Lea to discuss our goals and they began working with us. Unfortunately, at the time of our decision, there was nothing available that fit our needs. While disappointed, Steve encouraged us to be patient and laid out a plan to identify and be ready when our ideal property came available. Specifically, they 1) encouraged us to look at other properties in Beaver Creek to make sure St. James was the place for us, 2) they worked very hard during our visits to make sure we saw various floor plans in the St. James, and 3) they did a tremendous amount of networking to give us early warning if a desirable floor plan was coming available. This “pre-work” allowed us to confidently make a very quick “yes” decision when a 3 bedroom unit in St. James came on the market. Because we are out of town and have numerous other commitments, they made our jobs very easy. They facilitated connections with trusted bankers, lawyers, home inspectors, etc. Steve and Lea kept us on schedule for closing, and were very quick to answer any questions we had. Again, everything they told us before the purchase turned out to be true after the purchase (from rental income to market demand). If you are looking for honest and hard-working real estate partners, look no further than Steve and Lea. "
