" Steve and Lea were amazing. They made the entire purchasing process very easy. They were both extremely knowledgeable and professional. They really took the time to answer all my questions and work diligently on my behalf. I was really impressed with the entire process and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone wanting to buy or sell in the Vail Valley/Beaver Creek area. "

- Thomas S. Cornelison

" Eric Burgund certainly deserves a 5 star rating for providing me with service that went far beyond his brokering the Avon Town Home I recently purchased. Not only did he step by step guide me through the online sale which I had purchased sight unseen, I live in FL, but he was there for my children when they were in the area to ski, providing them with helmets and protective gear so they could see the unit while it was under construction. He periodically sent photos of the construction progress and now that I own the home I get a monthly news letter informing me of local happenings. Yesterday Eric called to let me know how much snow the area has received to date. You deserve the 5! "

- Robert Kelly

" 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. "

" Our experience with The Walsh Group was nothing but exceptional. They were extremely professional but friendly and warm at the same time. The initially met with us and told us based on our want/need for a certain asking price on our property that the time wasn't right to list. They continued to keep us on their mind and when the timing of the market was right, they contacted us to let us know. We listed and sold in a very prompt manner and got a great price. Thank You! "

- Dan & Renee- Highlands at Breckenridge Buyer

" 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! "

- Andrew Ferraro

" Jeri and Joan made a very difficult transaction much more streamline. They were extremely attentive and knowledgeable throughout the process. They have a strong command of the transaction process, but they also are Summit County experts ... able to fill me in on all the new developments, keeping me informed (by connections with police and fire department) when a fire was nearby the property I was purchasing. Friendly and fun ... "

- Martha Page

" Ellyn has an amazing real estate soul!! This is our 6th property to purchase and She is by far the most thorough, efficient, personable agent we've ever used! Its been a grueling journey with us and she has guided and stuck with us through several offers, inspections, appraisals, etc.. She and her firm represent and assist you in every detail from beginning to end… would not do another Colorado transaction without her or SSF! "

- Jack & Monica Lewis

" Ann was terrific! She was our “feet on the ground” as we purchased from afar. Her ability to assess properties and give us honest feedback on the suitability for our needs was critical and she was always responsive and in step with our thoughts. We would recommend her highly to those considering a purchase in the Vail, Avon or Edwards areas. "

- Kathy Witsil

" Led, Think about how crazy it is that we bought this place sight unseen because of our confidence in your judgment. I am a risk adverse person and this is highly unusual. You handled the entire process since we first met you with fairness and skill. Thanks again for everything. $1.9M purchase and $3.25M sale in Vail Vail ($1,950,000 purchase in Vail) "

- Andrew V. Masterman

" We met Michele when she raced over from her daughter's soccer game to show us the home that we eventually purchased. That very first experience told us a lot about Michele's style. She's very eager to remove any obstacle when it comes to selling and she moves fast. We found her to be well organized and generous with her time in handling all of the extras that come with most real estate purchases. For many reasons, we now have another property listed with Michele and enjoy her both as an accomplished professional and trusted friend. "

- Tom & Deedee Farquhar

" As a commercial real estate broker for 40+ years, I understand the importance of electronic marketing and the need for that to be quality and professional. SSF has all of those qualities. "

" Andrew did a great job managing the full scope of our listing, with terrific suggestions in prepping the property for marketing and showing, to holding frequent open houses and, eventually, providing sound advice throughout the transaction negotiation. He brought a helpful balanced and objective approach but never lost sight of who his client was. Don't let the youthful appearance fool you, he's got what it takes to do a great job. "

- Bill - East Vail Seller

" We bought at the Westin in 2010 when we moved to Boulder after having lived in Eagle County for over 25 years. Mitch was an active member of the Westin residential homeowner Board of Directors for 6 1/2 years.We enjoyed the Westin tremendously for over 10 years, staying there 80-90 nights per year while keeping our condo on the rental program.When we decided it was time to sell, we had to decide which of the many fine real real estate agents that we knew well in the valley to list our condo with. We knew Lissa was very active in selling Riverfront Village properties. As a matter of fact she had recently listed and quickly sold a similar condo owned by good friends we met through our ownership at the Westin at what we thought was a very good price. Lissa got our condo under contract within about 30 days and facilitated a quick and smooth closing..We highly recommend Lissa if you are interested in buying or selling a Riverfront Village property. "

- Mitch and Jane Imber

" Amy was a fabulous agent who efficiently helped us to discover what we wanted and managed the purchase process with professionalism and expertise. We couldn't have asked for a more capable representative. "

- Parrish Family Trust

" Sarah Barclay and her team were very courteous,informative,helpful and professional "

- Angela Nicholsas

" I have used realtors and most are okay. Summit County was an exceptional experience because of our realtor, Michele Hart. She has a "perfection" in the way she handles both the buying and selling of a property. I have had the pleasure of both and can easily recommend her and Summit. The entire process was without issues, hassles or anything unexpected. Michele maintained a professional dialog throughout the process which made my partner and I feel at ease. If I'm considering another property anywhere in Colorado, I will only be dealing with Michele. "

- Dave Bellwoar

" From the moment we sat down with Mark, we knew he was the right Realtor. We found Mark and Melissa very attentive and very knowledgeable. They advertised our property in every imaginable media, conducted numerous open houses, always followed up with agents after showings and were great about keeping us in the loop. We highly recommend Mark and Melissa if you are thinking of buying or selling! "

- Debra Hopkins

" Thank you for making the selling of 304 Meadow Road as painless as possible. Your advice and expertise were very helpful. We appreciate that you took charge in a professional and caring manner, always leading us to a successful sale. Because you were willing to answer questions and give us sound advice, we think you are the BEST. We will miss our conversations. Wishing you and Jack the best of health and happiness. "

" Jonathan really worked hard for us. "

- Pat Hensley

" 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. "

- Jake Kordich

" We really enjoyed working with Cristine on the purchase of our new home in McKinney, TX in 2013. Faced with moving back to the States from overseas and limited opportunity to be on-site, we had to learn all about a new city AND buy a home from 5,000 miles away. Cristine more than met that challenge. She overcame the logistical and time-zone difficulties to get to know our family and provided loads of information to help us learn all about our new environment. As a result, the neighborhoods and homes she showed us were relevant and aligned with our values. Even when the initial search process bogged down because we couldn’t agree on the same home, Cristine readily pushed the reset button, doubled her efforts, and shortly thereafter found the perfect home that balanced all our needs. There was no pressure, no rush to close. The process was 100% about finding the best match for us. Her professionalism, flexibility, energy, and readiness to offer an educated opinion or new idea when necessary, was critical to our success. We greatly appreciated her commitment to us and would happily recommend her to others. "

- Rita and Darin Cabral

" Overall Ellyn was very sweet and helpful. However there was some miscommunication throughout the process. "

" A year ago we saw a photo of a property on your website that we were very interested in. We like a contemporary design and had specific needs so there aren't many properties that appeal to us. We spoke to Andrew Cryer on the phone for the first time and 3 days later he picked us up from the airport and we wrote an offer for our first purchase in Avon. Nine months later we outgrew our lovely condo and Andrew began the search for a larger condo. We felt like we had seen everything on the market so Andrew began a search of condos about to be listed by reaching out to other brokers. He found an amazing townhouse that is perfect for our family. Andrew has helped us with every part of the sale down to the most basic things. He has found maids , carpet cleaners, movers, how to program our garage door openers and handymen to fix little things on the punch list. Andrew takes the worry out of every part of the sale. We have owned 17 condos in the Florida panhandle and he is the best realtor we have ever worked with. Mary and Gordon "

- Mary & Gordon Chalmers

" My wife and I have owned Real estate in Summit county for seven years . We met Craig at a home owners meeting after he gave a presentation on the status of the real estate market. From our interaction we believed he was very professional and when we went to sell one of our condos we asked him for a proposal. Although we already had used two other agents in the area, we decided to give Craig the job. By far he is the most professional and efficient agent we have used or interviewed in summit County. His analysis of the market price of our condo was right on, he worked through the paperwork and marketing material very quickly to get us in the market and with in two weeks we had a qualified buyer at our price. After we were under contract he managed the deadlines and deliverables to make the closing happen without exception or delay. Craig is an exceptional communicator. Through out the process he gave us almost daily updates of the progress to set expectations and keep us informed. We highly recommend Craig Walsh. "

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 "

" 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. "

- George Schloegel

" Michael did an excellent job of helping us sell our townhouse. Michael knows the Summit County real estate market and how to prepare properties for sale. Prior to listing our unit, Michael advised us to have the unit inspected and complete any suggested repairs. This advice was very good in that it allowed buyers to be comfortable there wouldn't be any unexpected issues with the unit. Michael has good relationships with local contractors which was very helping in getting pre listing repairs completed quickly and at a reasonable price. In summary, having bought and sold multiple properties over the years, our experience with Michael as our realtor was excellent. "

" My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Corey Crocker. Purchasing a home in the Roaring Fork Valley is tough, and Corey was patient, supportive and informative throughout the whole process. She was never pushy - she always wanted us to feel good about the home we were buying. There was a situation when we placed an offer, the seller expressed interest, and after further contemplation we decided to pull the offer. Corey was so kind in this situation, and pointed out that this experience was a great way for us to get clear on what we wanted. I appreciated her perspective in that moment (and she was right!).

" From day one, the Griffin.Cryer.Burgund team exceeded all of our expectations. Coming from a different state and looking for a vacation home in the Beaver Creek/Avon area, we were naturally nervous about the process and finding the right home. The team were instrumental in not only helping us find and purchase the property that we love, but importantly being a partner with us every step of the way. The level of professionalism, responsiveness, and thoroughness were unparalleled to what we have experienced in the past. They went above and beyond to ensure that every detail and concern was addressed to give us the necessary peace of mind and comfort throughout this process leading to our ultimate purchase of our vacation home. The level of attention to our needs was extraordinary and incredibly appreciated in helping shepherd us through this process, especially considering that we were not familiar with the local market and practices. We highly recommend the Griffin.Cryer.Burgund team to anyone looking to purchase a home. "

They were extremely knowledgeable and professional at every juncture. We felt Team Barclay treated us with the same professionalism that one would expect for property far more expensive than ours, and we truly appreciated that! We had full confidence that they were watching out for our interests, and would handle the transaction professionally, at every step in the process. We have watched other properties remain unsold or under-sold, and marveled at the results our team was able to get in a short amount of time. Many thanks and gratitude to Sarah and Team Barclay! "

" 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 "

" 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! "

" It is quite easy to recommend Erica and Scot Webster as real estate brokers. We found them very knowledgeable about the area, generally, and the real estate market in the area specifically. The Websters were responsive and very professional throughout the entire sale process and minimized any attendant stress. Through 50 years we have had a fair amount of experience with residential real estate professionals, including on Kiawah Island, in Dallas, New York City and Westchester County in New York. The Websters are standouts in that group. Equally important to us, their experience put them in a position to anticipate and answer many questions before they were asked and to address the few concerns which did arise. They were also a terrific resource between the signing and the closing. Because we were not on site during that time, they supervised the inspection, the title and similar tasks and did a terrific job on all fronts. They literally kept us up to date daily by telephone or email. In short ,they are very service oriented.On a personal level, not only were Erica and Scot easy to deal with as brokers, they are really nice people and we enjoyed getting to know them. "

He showed up many properties and answered lots of questions, even though we were still years away from our purchase. Over that time, he really listened to what was important to us and when it was finally time for us to make the move, he knew exactly what properties to show us and which one was the perfect fit for us. He helped us through the purchasing process and has done extra things to make the purchase easier for us as we did it all from Mississippi. I highly recommend John to anyone looking for property in the Vail area. "

" 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. "

" When I decided to sell my personal residence, I enlisted a handful of respected and successful brokers within my company, Slifer Smith and Frampton, to assist me with pricing. One of my first calls was to Donna Caynoski because I considered her advice and expertise invaluable. Donna provided my wife and I with a fresh outlook on the value of our property that enjoys a rare location on the banks of Lake Creek. Rather than simply analyzing the numbers, she imagined the personal connection that a potential buyer would form with the property. She knew that it would be an emotional buy and that the right buyer for the property would pay a premium. Donna was right and we were fortunate that the buyer stepped forward quickly. We sincerely appreciated Donna’s valuable expertise that resulted in a higher price than many brokers thought possible. "

- Scott Skelton

" Steve and Lea were absolutely great to work with on our recent property sale. From the moment we discussed possibly listing our home to the week we actually did, they helped guide us toward what would be needed to feature our property in the best possible listing time and various listing outlets. The entire process went smoothly and upon listing, we had it sold within 3 days. Then all through the closing process we were kept abreast of the upcoming stages and needs, right up until the actual virtual closing. I would highly recommend Steve as a realtor for any and all of our home buying or selling needs. "

She stuck to my price range, talked price down where needed and up where needed and used her relationships within the community to stay one step ahead of other buyers.

" 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. "

" 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! "

" Eric Klein and his team went the extra thousand miles for us in order to sell our home. Our home presented on the extremely difficult side when it came to selling, and not once did we doubt that we had chosen the right broker to get it done. Eric and his team were not threatened by the challenge. Through every conversation they made us feel like they had every aspect under control, taking the weight right off of our shoulders. We have worked with his team on three separate transactions now, and would challenge anyone to find a better broker than Eric. He and his team are a group you can TRUST. "

" My husband and I have bought and sold a few properties prior to this purchase. We had, by far, the best experience with our agent, Theo Jordan. Not only does she have precise communication, promptness and attention to detail, she went above and beyond when we were having difficulties with our nightmare of a lender. She checked in with us, informed us of what's to come, and advised us when asked. I wish I could give her a higher rating than 5 stars! We could not have closed (on time) our property without Theo!!! She's the best agent not only in Summit County but industry-wide! "

" Franque was a pleasure to deal with from the very beginning. When we walked into your office he made us feel welcome! He treated us as if we were his only customers from the very beginning. He answered all her questions and gave us all the information not knowing whether not we’re coming back. Once we came back and he sure is a properties it was very helpful and directed us to individuals it could help with the inspections, etc. He Was available day or night - He even stepped out of a wedding but he was attending when we called to ask him questions about the property we were buying. Throughout this whole time he maintained his professionalism and was very patient with us. Any point in time when we thought we were not going to be able to resolve some issues regarding the property he still had faith and made recommendations that actually allowed us to reach a compromise and purchase the property. After that he stayed on top of every detail, up until the time of closing. Even after our closing - he was able to do a walk-through for us to make sure that the property was left as we agreed - sent us some photos, picked up our keys, and even sent us a video clip of his drive to the home showing some of the fall colors in our area He was GREAT!!!!!!!!!

" 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! "

- Emily Scott Pottruck and David Pottruck, former CEO of Charles Schwab

" Thank you for thinking of me for a broker recommendation for listing your house - I truly appreciate it and I take recommending a broker to service you very seriously. While I can write at length about why it's so important to have the best representation on your property to yield the best return financially and within your time preference - it's also about relationships and matching the very best broker for your property to the client. This has, and continues to be my philosophy and it has never let me down. That said and after much consideration I highly recommend Heather Lemon for your broker. I have a few strong reasons behind my selection, in short - here are a few: - I have personally worked with Heather over the years and continue to follow her success. She has a true PASSION for real estate, for the Vail Valley and works the entire valley. Integrity, Professionalism, Proven Results, Creative, Resourceful, and Go-Getter are just a few qualities she possesses. - She is a licensed lawyer and RE Broker and in all my countless transactions with her over the years, she always got the deal done and closed, always. It goes without saying that she works for YOU and while there are no guarantees - she has a solid track record. Also, the fact that she has a law background - this is a plus when it comes to interpretation of the extensive CO RE Contracts for buying or selling. Out of over 90 brokers in SSF, we hand selected Heather to be a part of the initial launch of the Westin Sales Team and she was very successful in contributing to the success of the development and continues to be a top-producing broker there and throughout the Valley. - Heather has impressive negotiation skills, from working with first time home-buyers to the discerning international businessman, to the wealthy. She is very creative and has a track record - she always amazed me on how she would truly LISTEN to the client, and then get creative to get a deal done. She has a very good reputation of respect among her colleagues and in this valley that is so important. - Heather is a long time local, has raised her lovely family here and her enthusiasm is unmatched by any other broker in this valley. She will genuinely love your house, it's features and will steer you in a solid and honest direction while conveying her enthusiasm for your house to the brokerage community and prospective buyers. This is extremely important as you only get one chance to make the first impression and since buyers are precious - every opportunity has to count - period. - Since Heather will list and sell properties through-out the valley, her knowledge is priceless. And because she is not a broker that has a Eagle development listed or specializes in a specific area like Eagle, her focus will be on your property and that is what you want. Enthusiastic broker, excited about your property working hard to sell your property is a win, win. I'll be completely honest with you - there are many brokers in this valley who will tell you whatever you want to hear in regards to pricing in order to obtain a listing. This is not Heather's tactic - she will be honest, factual based on statistics and area trends of demand to advise you. Then, together as a team - you both and her - can decide on the pricing strategy. This could make all the difference in the world, especially if time is of the essence. Well, these are just a few thoughts and I truly hope you will list with Heather - I promise you, and I know in my heart she is the right broker for you, and for your house. If it's alright with you - I would like to share your contact information with her, along with the property address and request her to reach out to you - perhaps by email, at least with some initial sales and MLS data for the area. It's no pressure at all. "

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 also cant say enough about the teamwork displayed by the Beaver Creek Highlands team (Eric, Andrew and Molly).

She is a hard worker and will advocate for you like no other! She is on top of every little detail and there are a lot of details when buying and selling a home at the same time. She is also very personable and great to be around. She sold our vacation home and then turned around and found us another one right away. The company has so many marketing opportunities for their clients that you don't need to go elsewhere to get the job done! We have no regrets using Michele or SSF and will definitely use them next time. "

- Shelly Fazzino

" Theo is a top notch broker. She's professional, prompt, has great attention to detail regarding informing you of each part of the process as well as being diligent about meeting every deadline in a timely manner. She's all these things and all the while so easy and enjoyable to work with! "

- Jessica Bergan

" She handled a very complicated transaction to a successful closing with a happy buyer and seller. This was a gated forest retreat with strict and technical HOA rules, and a $30,000 nonrefundable HOA FEE on top of the sales price. We also had a septic tank replacement involving county regulations plus extensive radon remediation. She WORKS the deal and is easy to work with. In any transaction one needs a very detailed broker and this is her strength. I strongly recommend her as she will get it done!!!! Plus such a joy to work with. "

- Christine Fontane

" Jack is professional in every way, and seems to put his client’s needs first as demonstrated by his superior listening skills. I give him 5 stars for getting the job done so beautifully and completely. "

" Sarah McNeill has been our real estate agent for many years and we have bought and sold 4 properties with her (the most recent being May 2022) and very truly we wouldn't use anyone else. We have been thinking about purchasing a home for a while, but were worried about purchasing a home in such a competitive market and truly didn't know if we could do it. Sarah met with us a few times early in the process and helped us narrow down what we were looking for and once we found a home that met our criteria under her expert advice and guidance we were able to buy our dream home. We also sold our previous home around the same time and I was impressed not only with Sarah but the whole Slifer Team. Even before we were thinking about selling our property we had agents come over to our residence and give us an estimation of what they think we could sell it for and ideas and tips on what we should do to help the property sell. This in my opinion was above and beyond their job title and I think is exactly what positioned us to sell our house in 3 days for over the asking price (in the exact price range they had told us it would sell for). Both processes were incredibly smooth and effortless. Sarah was in communication with us regularly and is always quick to answer any questions. Without Sarah, I don't believe we would have had a chance to purchase our new dream home for a price that we could afford. Sarah is an incredible asset to have on either your buying or selling team and I wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate in Summit County. She is incredibly knowledgeable, communicative, caring, understands your needs, has a wonderful team, and she's a lovely human being. You couldn't ask for anything more in a real estate agent. "

- Kelly & Jason Leiby

" I had a pleasant, very straightforward experience working with my broker. More than anything, I was impressed with Sarah's constant communication on everything that was coming up in the process. She kept us on schedule and made sure we had all of our ducks in a row for closing. "

- Matthew Petti

" Tom is so wonderful. I spend every day with him. He would look better with some hair, but I guess that isnt really an option "

- 2100 Alpine LLC

" Working through a transaction with Ed Swinford and Brent Rimel was incredibly smooth. They are both top notch when it comes to communication and negotiation. What a pleasant surprise. It was truly a positive experience for my clients and my team! "

- Tasha

" 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. "

- Bailey, Avon Seller

" DEBBIE GIBSON CURTI WAS VERY PROFESSINAL AND ALSO HANDLING ALL VERY WELL . I WOULD RECOMMEND HERE TO OTHER FRINDS AS WELL . "

" I cannot say enough good things about Megan and our experience working with her. She is absolutely phenomenal. As local first-time homebuyers, we had a lot of questions. Megan was so kind and patient. Her guidance ensured we got in the property we wanted – and quickly! She is extremely knowledgeable, and made the buying process so easy! In such a competitive market, she kept us updated on the most recent listings and was always available to show properties. Her communications were prompt and thorough. We will absolutely use Megan again, and have already recommended her to several friends! "

- B. Rahm

" Led was recommended to us by Steve Hawkins, the manager of the Mountain Haus. We were delighted working with him, from start to finish. Granted, it is a "seller's market" in Vail now, but we feel Led helped us maximize the sales price, which was his job. His honesty, integrity, excellent communication skills, and responsiveness made the transaction very smooth. I would unhesitatingly recommend him to a friend. "

- John Reed Wilcox Trust

" We made a visit just to get an idea of what's available for what price, without intending to buy right away. Theo Jordan gave us a great introduction to the area, and properties ranging from small condos to land for building a home later on. As it turns out, she sent us something a few days later that seemed just right for us, and then she helped us make a smooth purchase. Theo was great! "

- Chris Jacobsen

" Steve is always helpful with our needs. I look forward to continuing our relationship in the future. "

- Pamela W. Pressnell

"

" Thank you again for your prompt response to my request. It was nice to talk with you and I hope things are going well for you. I don't believe I ever slowed down to tell you how much I appreciated your help in moving the three properties in Beaver Creek for me. Your professional attitude and the promptness in getting those properties sold was the best I have ever seen in Beaver Creek. As you know the previous agent I had was awful. He simply listed the property and waited for someone else to sell it. You on the other hand were very proactive and used your contacts and ability to find a buyer in order to get excellent prices and very prompt sales of all three properties. I just want to say a belated Thank You! I would always be happy to be a reference for you and you may feel free to give my name, phone number and share my absolute recommendation of you with any client you have. Any friend I have buying or selling in Beaver Creek or Vail will know from me that you are in my opinion the very Best there. "

- John Porter, Palm Beach, FL

" We have bought and sold many homes in different places and Steve Cardinale is the best real estate broker we have ever worked with. He and his team, especially Lea, provide outstanding customer service and display the highest integrity. At every point in the process- from showing us properties to closing- Steve went above and beyond to make everything as easy as possible. We can’t recommend him highly enough. "

Jack Affleck incorporates experience, research and negotiating expertise and gives you best guidance His marketing abilities are great since he is local, knows market well and uses networking skills He was able to sell our house during COVID 19 crisis in 2 months ( 2 months from the day We called him to closing date ) "

- Mae Fischer

" 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! "

" Working with Steve was a fantastic experience. We were referred to him by a friend of ours and we couldn't be happier. Steve showed us a wide range of properties and helped us figure out what we really wanted in a second home. He was extremely knowledgeable, professional and communication with him and his assistant, Lea, were always seamless. We are so excited about our purchase and thanks to Steve and Lea, the process was enjoyable. I would highly recommend working with them if you're looking for a property in Beaver Creek or Avon! "

- Anthony James Lambatos

" Working with Chris Lankhorst and others on his team was a first-rate experience. They sold our condo for more than asking price, and helped us through a somewhat difficult process of buying a new condo in the same area. Would recommend them to anyonw. "

- Michael Vickers

" Molly Griffin is an absolutely OUTSTANDING broker. She is prompt, honest, straightforward, extremely patient and provided detailed information and a great education. No matter when or what we asked, Molly provided practically immediate feedback. She is truly a great asset to Slifer. In addition, she was conversational and did not pressure us at all. She dealt very well with the seller's agent and obtained a deal we thought was very fair. We appreciate all she's done for us and would highly recommend her to anyone in the area looking for a home. "

- Vail Valley Property Owner

" 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! "

- Benjamin Gough

" There is no one more professional, reliable, honest or hardworking in the Vail Valley than Dixi Applegate. We have worked with her on several different real estate transactions, and she has provided great guidance and expertise throughout the process. Her instincts and her ability to understand the market, are second-to-none. She is an outstanding professional, and a pleasure to work with. We could not recommend her more highly. "

" 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

" Stacy was incredible to work with. We knew from day one she was the perfect broker for us. We worked with her to get our must haves and she found exactly what we were looking for. We found the perfect place in 1 day and seamlessly closed less than 30 days later. She was in constant communication with us around deadlines and requirements and made sure we were on track all the way through closing. We couldn't have found a better place and couldn't have done it without Stacy! "

- Roelant and Mary

" As a buyer, I want three things from my agent: 1. Show me properties in which I will have a real interest---don't waste my time with others 2. 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. When we told Cathy we were thinking of a larger house, she took us to see what she described as the perfect house for you---we bought it the next day. "

" Big thanks to Aaron on the sale of our townhouse! The whole process ended up being more work than expected, but Aaron was always genuinely friendly, courteous, and professional throughout. We suspect that he had to put in significantly more time into our modest sale then would typically be the case, yet he was patient, dedicated, and always made time for our inquiries. Aaron made us feel that he was sincerely interested in our comfort and happiness, not just in completing a sale. We certainly recommend him and would consider his services in the future. "

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

" I submitted my information on a real estate website to view a property and got passed along to Robert as he worked in the area I was looking in and I am glad that we were put in touch! 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! "

If we ever find ourselves in a position to purchase another property or sell one of ours, you will be our agent. Cherish and I want to express our deepest appreciation for your efforts. "

" To purchace our vacation home Reilly came recommended by our local realtor, and working with her was just amazing. She was attentive, responsive and up on everey detail throughout the whole process.

- David S. Content

" Michael Lytle is the best agent we have ever used. Having sold over 20 properties we have never had an easier listing and sale than we had with Michael. He persuaded us to increase our listing price over 10% higher than we planned. The listing description and pictures were top quality and led to a contract above list on the first day it went active. The entire process from the contract to the closing was effortless for us as Michael handled almost all aspects. We couldn't be happier and wholeheartedly endorse Michael and Slifer Smith and Frampton. "

" My wife and chose Jack Carpenter to list our home over a number of excellent realtors we know in Summit County Colorado. We chose Jack because of his longevity as a realtor in our community as well as his professional manor. During the sale process we were often additionally impressed by his attention to detail, his ability to shepherd the process, and his problem solving abilities as inspection challenges arose. Jack knows all of the contractors needed to bring a property up to good standards, and has good, insightful knowledge of the marketplace. We believe Jack sold our house at the best price we could have hoped for, and in a short amount of time. "

- Travis Holton

" Reilly is detail oriented, smart, professional, and energetic. She's my hero. I want to be like her! A friend recommended her because my previous realtor didn't act like she needed to work. Reilly worked hard for me several years ago even though my buyer backed out. And she worked hard for this sale as well. She comes up with information before we think to ask for it. She has earned my loyalty. "

- Jamie Bailey

" Kelly Moser and the K2 team were the best and most supportive team for us to have with the purchase of our home.

Thank you Kelly and team K2! You are the BEST. "

She made a stressful process a bit easier to handle. We appreciate her professionalism too! "

- Thomas Glaspy

We appreciate everything she did for us. "

- Mingham Family Trust

" Jeff literally found us the perfect home! We had been working with Jeff for a few months, and although we saw beautiful homes they weren't exactly what we wanted. He was able to get us in to see a home just prior to it being listed - we all knew it was the one! Jeff and his team are wonderful and are always there to help.

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. As a Mortgage Lender who works with numerous Real Estate agents daily, I can say with 100% confidence that George is the best of the best. I very much look forward to working with him again in the future and will highly recommend him any chance I get. "

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.

- Anthony Hersh

" 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 "

- Vail

" 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 "

" 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. "

- Christine Cooper

" We highly recommend Slifer, Smith,&Frampton for all your real estate needs, especially Broker John Pringle. He is friendly, professional and knows Keystone and Summit County inside and out and will treat you right !! "

- Thomas Neumaier

" 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.

" Taryn is amazing. We recently completed a purchase of a home in the Brekenridge/Fairplay area and Taryn was there for us from the first online communication through the wonderful move in welcome gift. In short we could not have done this purchase without Taryn always going the extra mile at every step to ensure that our needs were met or exceeded.Taryn even went as far as to act as our trusted proxy during several steps including inspection, local closing and walk through.That only tells half the story however as Tayrn was always available to us throughout the process to answer and research the most mundane questions to the most complex real estate questions needed for a smooth close. She also went above and beyond by finding us the best contractors in the area for everything from home inspection to home improvement and every one of them exceeded our expectations in terms of response time and quality of service. Even after the sale Taryn has continued to be our lifeline to the area and our first source for recommendations on everything.To think we found her from a simple Zillow search is a bit mind boggling as I know we found the best agent in the area with a simple click.You will not regret calling her for your search.

" Didi was absolutely outstanding throughout the entire process. As first-time home-buyers we required more hand-holding than the average buyer and she was phenomenal at educating us and giving us the tools to make a smart decision. She is a strong advocate for her clients throughout the closing process. "

He is very friendly and goes out of his way to make the home search process enjoyable for those he works with. He also knows a lot of people in the area and was great for making recommendations when I needed several contractors to help me with repairs. He was very helpful at finding properties for me to look at that I wasn't aware of, and also with several activities I needed help with after I closed.

" I am delighted to provide this testimonial on behalf of Donna Caynoski. She is smart, understands the market well and as such was realistic in the pricing recommendations for my home. 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. "

- Sarah Nash

" We first had contact with Hillary McSpadden and the McSpadden Team 4-5 years ago . Their professionalism in addressing our needs at that time was not forgotten. When we called Hillary McSpadden, in mid-March, to discuss possibly listing our Lionshead condo unit, she responded quickly, efficiently and professionally - outlining proposed listing terms and providing us with comprehensive data on active listings and recent and pending sales, so that we could make an informed decision on our asking price. She then handled the marketing of our unit in a way that quickly resulted in competing offers at above our asking price - leading to a sale. From start to finish, everything moved forward to a smooth and happy conclusion. "

- RVM 105 Holdings, LLC

" 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. "

- Dave Koons, Breckenridge, CO

" My experience with SSF was second to none. I have worked with many brokers in the past and Matt’s Dayton is hands down the best one. Buying a house while living in another state in a hot market is stressful and comes with feeling you have little control. Matt had all of our trust and handled all of the details of the purchase process expertly and professionally. I never felt out of the loop as he kept us updated regularly. My family and I are very excited to move into our new Breckenridge home and it wouldn’t have been possible without Matt Dayton and his team at SSF. "

" Given the hot market in Frisco, and the fact that we were not local, we needed an agent that acted quickly and understood our needs in detail. Jon took the time to understand what we were looking for, and when a property that met our criteria hit the market, he hustled to gather additional information â?? including additional photos and videos. He was also patient as we waited for the right property for us to come on the market. Jon is a fantastic agent and great guy to work with â?? we give him our highest recommendation!! "

" 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 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!! "

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.

" We listed our home in the Divide in Cordillera with Pam and Brooke after a recommendation from friends. We were so very happy from day one. They were extremely helpful with suggestions on how to prepare the home for sale and gave great advice on what additions and repairs to make as well as efforts that were a waste of time and money. They were present for EVERY showing and gave us excellent and timely feedback. Their presence in Cordillera was a big plus as they know the market and have a wonderful reputation in the valley with the realty community. We talked to a number of friends and when Pam and Brooke were mentioned we alway got very positive responses. Pam also makes a killer chicken pot pie!! After a buyer was found, we continued to get the best help imaginable, including Brooke selling a number of items online for us! All in all, a great selling experience from two wonderful and talented realtors. "

Doug stuck with us as we viewed a number of different property types and considered and reconsidered our options.

" I came to the Vail area to see if I might find something to escape to the mountains from Parker, CO where I currently live. I rented for 2 months, fell in love with the area and the friendly people so I decided I wanted to move permanently to the area. Erica came highly recommended, we got along well together. We casually looked last year (before I had decided to move) and went out one day this summer when I found something I thought was very nice and a good investment. Once we were under contract both Erica and Scott jumped in full force and handled everything very professionally. They even made it a LOT of fun! They also went far and beyond their duties as real estate agents, helping with all kinds of things, suggestions, contacts, etc. They made me feel like family! "

We continue to recommend her to all of our family and friends. "

I would highly recommend Stacy to any property owner who is looking for a knowledgeable, experienced Realtor to help them sell their property in Summit County. "

- Gordon

" 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. "

" Stewart went above and beyond what I would typically expect from a real estate broker. He was extremely knowledgeable about the area and handled our transaction seamlessly. Because we were across the country, Stewart routinely went out of his way to answer specific questions about properties that required on site visits. No ask was too big. Even after closing, he continued to ask what he could do to make our lives easier. I certainly would recommend him to anyone looking for a spot in Summit County. "

- Chase, Kim Headley

" Our broker Chris Lankhorst was fantastic to work with he was professional, polite, hard working, worked quickly on all transactions and there were a few times we would call him to see if we could meet with him on short notice and he was always able to fit us into his busy schedule. If we ever buy any other real estate in Summit county we definitely would like to work with Chris. "

" My wife and I were staying at a local hotel and took a walk in Beaver Creek Village. We stopped in to see If the Real Estate office had an extra FedEx envelope as I had to send my car keys back home. We ended up chatting with Steve about a timeshare and based on the service, style and professionalism we bought one the next day. I've never had a better real estate experience in my lifetime. Both Steve and Lea treated us as if we were buying a multi-million dollar home, not a Time Share and the level of communication and follow up was the best I've ever experienced from any service industry "

" 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. "

- Richard A Smith

" Our experience was fabulous! "

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.

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. "

" Michelle Hart is fantastic to work with ! ! She knows the market inside and out, keeps you informed of any and all news, very sensitive to each owners quirks, preferences and concerns. I have recommended Michelle to half a dozen friends who have raved about her ability to make the best deal, find what they want or find the best seller for their home. Always holds a strong ethical approach to every situation. She will tell you the good and bad along with the pro's and con's and then act as you direct. But she gives you the honest, good and bad information to make a sound decision . . and then will act exactly as you direct. Truly, her only motivation is to accomplish your goals, satisfy your needs and obtain a completely happy customer. Unlike many realtors, she will not push something in her portfolio just to make a sale. Nor will she try to talk you into to something you question. Or try to sale the easy product or push a low offer just to get a deal done. If the product is not what you like, well she will go find it - She is truly "servant" in her role to your needs and will not push her own agenda. Although a super nice person and we have certainly become friends though multiple transactions, this recommendation is not slanted from a personal friendship / brother n law type recomendation. I have been a property owner in Breck 11 years and dealt with her exclusively, as have all my friends. There is simply nobody better in the area. SSF is welcome to pass my phone number along to any prospective client if they would like to contact me . . . "

- Todd Crane

" Very positive experience especially because we were so frustrated with how quickly the properties were getting bids. Theo was excellent with communication and she was very encouraging that we would find “our place” despite losing out on multiple bids. And we did! - we are grateful those bids were only “training ground”. We found the best home for us. "

" Stewart was tremendous to work with! He is kind, understanding, patient, and caring. He is knowledgeable and able to answer questions, but also willing to search for answers when they aren’t immediately available. It was clear to us that Stewart had our best interests at heart and was willing to go above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable with the process and outcome. Working with Stewart was an excellent experience and we highly recommend him. "

" Thank you, Jack, for another successful RE transaction. Your attention to detail and calm demeanor keep the process low-stress. "

- David R. Koons

" Jack is a true professional in all aspects of the business. He is very knowledgeable and not only anticipates customer needs, but proactively seeks opportunities to satisfy his customer interests and preferences. Always open to new ideas and ready to serve, he has the friendliest demeanor of any professional I know in the real estate/service/hospitality industry. When we were looking for a vacation property in the Vail/Beaver Creek area, he scoured listings and spent days of showings with us to help us determine the most suitable option for our family. While we didn't even know ourselves, his guidance and process of elimination directed to us to several top choices. Though our purchase is still in the future, we feel better educated in making a solid decision for our family and vacation/second home needs. Having purchased, built and remodeled many homes over the years, we are experienced homeowners and appreciate Jack's leadership and business acumen, and patience with us personally, as we continue our real estate relationship.

" Jane is knowledgeable, experienced, receptive, responsive, punctual and all other qualities one would like to have about an agent to whom one would entrust the property. She is prompt in response and always made the information clear and pleasant-reading. The very best I had worked with after handing real estate properties in sales and purchases through many years. Jane made a promotional video, which caught the attention of the Buyer. We received an offer in less than two weeks after our property was on the MLS. Jane was excellent as our agent. The price was controlled by the market. We endured a tremendous loss through the years. More than anyone would expect. Only our accountant knows. Mainly we purchased at a high market, went through remodeling, furnishing and upkeeps. Sold at a lukewarm market. The buyer would not encounter such a problem, mainly all the essentials have been set up. Our experience was a continuous loss. Thanks to Jane. The sale was fast. "

" 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 "

" Andrew made our vacation home purchase as easy as possible! We reached out to him after reading great reviews, and we were so happy we did! He's extremely sharp, knowledgeable about the local market, and helpful. He was responsive and accessible throughout the entire process. We are very pleased with our experience with Andrew and SSF. Thank you! "

" Dana arranged for a sale of our existing condo to coincide with the purchase of another one in a highly desirable area with limited inventory. A charge that we thought was nearly impossible. He was patient throughout the process and made the impossible happen. Dana is the most knowledgeable and accommodating broker we have ever dealt with. Slifer is fortunate to have Dana on their team.

" Having been a broker for 20 years I felt strongly that in choosing a broker it is essential to know that broker has patience, integrity and will go the extra distance to get the deal done. This was the case with Led. When he saw that many of the issues, prior to closing, were things he could repair himself he did just that; changing light bulbs, getting locks to work and tightening fireplace screens. The momentum on the deal was fast tracked and a great part of the credit is due to Led. I believe the final contract, signed by all parties, was April 11, 2021 and we closed April 30, 2021. "

- Barbara Brody

" 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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "

" Steve and Lea are an incredible asset in selling or buying your Vail Valley property. Their professionalism and ongoing communications are an important element in making you feel at ease and getting the property transaction completed. We recommend Steve Cardinale's Slifer Office with the highest level of enthusiasm. No doubt I will use this team again should I ever have the need for another Vail Valley real estate transaction. "

" We are so very grateful for all you did to facilitate the sale of our home. From our very first phone conversation we knew we had found the right team. You were very thorough and professional in researching the Cordillera market and our home before taking the listing and continued that thoroughness and professionalism straight through closing. Your thoughtfulness in how to market our house was refreshing. In a very honest yet caring manner you let us know what needed to happen to prepare and actively sell our home. We appreciate your openness and communication with us every step of the way. We especially appreciate your professionalism in negotiating the contract. You helped guide us through the contract process and were creative in offering solutions. We highly recommend Donna Caynoski and her team to any buyer or seller. Thanks Donna for everything! - Cheryl, Seller in Cordillera "

" I so enjoyed working with you, Taryn, in the sale of my property at Gold Camp II. I was not thinking of selling at that time but you informed me that the market was right to do so. Combined with the circumstances of Kristen no longer working in Vail, the time was right to sell. You did not encourage me to sell at the first offer but to hold on because the demand would come close to my asking price, or nearly so. And that is what happened. It was an enjoyment to work with you. Thanks for being my agent in the sale of my property. "

" John handled the whole process professionally. He was proactive and responsive. Went the extra mile to schedule repairs and research codes and regulations. I appreciate the attention and effort. "

" My husband and I worked with Cristine to purchase our first house. We were so fortunate to meet Cristine. After visiting one of her open houses, and speaking with her, we knew she was the realtor that we wanted to work with. Not only is she extremely professional and dedicated, she is also very personable and made the whole home purchasing experience very pleasant. Buying your first home can be stressful, but Cristine made the process very easy.Cristine never pressured us to look at properties that we were not interested in. She sent us property updates and new listings as soon as they came on the market. In a competitive real estate environment, this is invaluable. Any time we saw a property we might be interested in, Cristine was very thorough and honest with us about any underlying issues that we would never have been aware of without her.When we finally did find “the one,” Cristine was with us every step of the way. I highly recommend Cristine and anyone who has the privilege to work with her can feel confident that she will work tirelessly to find you your dream home. "

" 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. "

" Over 15 years ago I walked into Slifer, Smith looking for a realtor. I met Michael and he helped me find a condo- exactly what we needed. He has since sold it for us and sight unseen we bought another one several years later- that’s how much we trust him. We’ve just sold that one and hope we will have a chance to send a lot of business his way. Michael and his wife Susan give realtors a good name! Lauren and Tim Mescon "

" We Have used Jeff Moore and his team several times . His knowledge, integrity, and professionalism have gone up and beyond Our expectations. Recently we had a tough dilemma. While making a decision towards our future and retirement potential. Jeff unselfishly helped us navigate our options . We kept the house we loved and he sold a lot we intended to build with our architectural plans already paid for in a win win situation for us and the buyer. His care , concern and friendship was evident in selecting the less lucrative route for himself. And we are delighted . "

" We have purchased and sold a number of homes in the Vail Valley and elsewhere. In all of many our transactions, we have never had a broker who worked as hard and as effectively for us as did Ellyn. She truly works beyond the call for her clients and offers sound advice and innovative approaches. Her integrity is admirable. We would recommend her to anyone without any reservations. "

" It was very beneficial from a buyer’s standpoint to work with George when we had to find a new home in a difficult market. 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. He would also respond immediately to any questions and if he didn’t know the answer, he would find out. I don’t think we would have found a home we are so happy with without him. "

" A year ago we saw a photo of a property on your website that we were very interested in. We like a contemporary design and had specific needs so there aren't many properties that appeal to us. We spoke to Andrew Cryer on the phone for the first time and 3 days later he picked us up from the airport and we wrote an offer for our first purchase in Avon. Nine months later we outgrew our lovely condo and Andrew began the search for a larger condo. We felt like we had seen everything on the market so Andrew began a search of condos about to be listed by reaching out to other brokers. He found an amazing townhouse that is perfect for our family. Andrew has helped us with every part of the sale down to the most basic things. He has found maids , carpet cleaners, movers, how to program our garage door openers and handymen to fix little things on the punch list. Andrew takes the worry out of every part of the sale. We have owned 17 condos in the Florida panhandle and he is the best realtor we have ever worked with. Mary and Gordon "

" We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your assistance in the purchase of our lot in Blue River. We enjoyed working with you. Your support during the entire process was appreciated and invaluable. First, I can't imagine anyone being more knowledgeable about the Breckenridge area than the two of you. Thirty years as a Breckenridge was evident. Your extensive knowledge and expertise was so useful in helping us narrow our search criteria. We especially appreciated your hard work during the search process. Steve's intense research and willingness to go the extra mile to ensure we had all the information we needed was so helpful to us in making our decision. Sheila's willingness to walk each lot from end to end was fantastic. Most of all, it was so reassuring to have two individuals committed to meeting our needs and ensuring we had the information needed to make the right decision for our family. Thanks again for your time and effort to make our dream come true. We appreciate all your hard work, patience and support. "

" Dear Sarah, Just a note to thank you once again for handling the sale of our home in Blue River. We lived in Summit County for 30 years and the time had come for us to move to a different climate. We listed our home with another Realtor first, but had no activity. It was a tough time to sell real estate. But then we listed our home with you and we were immediately impressed when you went into action for us. Your abundant marketing strategies, along with your professionalism and positive energy, made the sale of our house a success. From the day we signed the listing agreement until the day the sale closed and ownership of the home was transferred, only 41 days passed. You and you alone made this happen. And even though it happened so quickly, we formed a bond of friendship that we will always cherish. We look forward to seeing you again when we come to Summit County for a visit next summer. Fondest regards, Mark and Vicki Nowak "

" 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 "

" 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! "

" 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! "

" Slifer, Smith, and Frampton and especially their broker Aaron Rabins were of immeasurable value to us as we sold two parcels of ranch land in Gypsum, Colorado. Aaron stuck with us through the listing and sale of both properties, was very effective in helping to deal with the various questions and issues raised by potential buyers, gave good counsel on preparing the land for effective showing to clients, and was not visibly fazed by some of the curve-balls thrown by at least two potential buyers (such as a last minute cancellation of contract, or objection to the priority and volume of associated water rights). I very much appreciated how well he interacted with neighboring ranchers to enlist their support, and even ended up selling one of the parcels to one of these neighboring ranchers. He is very well suited for the networking required in a rural community with a wide diversity of home and property owners. "

" This was a long road for me and my ex. It was my turn to pick the realtor and the ex wasn’t stoked on realtors in general. Jason went above and beyond and we both are so grateful for his commitment to making this happen. I look forward to working with him again when I am ready to buy again. "

" I would highly recommend Stacy Sheldon to anyone looking for a home in Summit County. We met Stacy 8 years before we finally made an offer! She patiently and kindly kept in touch and welcomed opportunities to show us homes when we visited Breckenridge through the years. She is so professional, knowledgeable, and personable! Stacy never pushed us, but offered critical insight when we needed it. During the negotiation and pre-closing process we really witnessed her attention to detail and knowledge. We have already referred friends to her and will continue to do so. If you're looking for an experienced realtor who will help you find your dream home, call Stacy. She's just amazing! "

- Donna Lawrence

" Jeff and his team were outstanding in every phase of my recent condo purchase - from the initial interview, to setting up website access to properties, to providing Face Time and video of specific properties, to helping navigate the P&S, inspection, and subsequent purchase, walk-through and closing. Always responsive and candid about the pluses and minuses of properties. Post sale, they provided excellent recommendations on vendors such as furniture, appliances, design services. Would absolutely recommend Jeff and his team to anyone looking to buy property in Summit County; I will certainly use them for my real estate needs. "

" 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. "

She was a wealth of information that helped us in deciding to focus on homes, townhomes and condos in Breckenridge, Frisco, Dillon and Silverthorne.

" My wife and I really enjoyed working with Slifer Smith and Frampton on our recent home purchase. Our relator Carling did an excellent job through out the process. Buying and selling real estate can be very stressful, however, Carling made the experience fun and exciting.

" 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. "

In every transaction, I have been pleasantly surprise at how quickly she has produced an acceptable contract. I would recommend her without any qualification whatsoever. "

She offered great advice without being pushy. She worked hard coordinating the deal, got us connected with local financing, and was a great resource through closing and moving in. I've worked with a number of different realtors on homes in the past. Jan is by far my favorite. "

" Tom and Andrew are incredible brokers. Both are very knowledgeable about the real estate in Vail Valley and executed their work at a high level. They immediately answered e-mails and texts, found all of the information that we wanted, worked hard to make the deal happen, and were always available, even if they were out of Eagle County. No matter what we asked, they investigated and got answers. Plus, they were lots of fun to work with and made our purchase easy. We will certainly work with them again and highly recommend them to other buyers and sellers. "

When we were ready to purchase Doug was invaluable in advising us on Eagle County real estate trends. In a competitive market we needed his guidance to secure a home. We enjoyed and valued working with him. We are very excited to have bought our Eagle Valley home and thankful to Doug for his excellent assistance. "

- David Nichol

" 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. "

- David & Kim

" Our experience with Slifer, Smith and Frampton was outstanding. We were given the name of Jay Homola by a good friend at work. We had been thinking about taking the plunge and wading into the condo waters for sometime. The recommendation spurred us to action and we were not disappointed. Jay asked us what we were looking for and gave us access to the very efficient and handy portal. From there it was smooth sailing. Jay was organized, friendly, efficient and very patient. He was quick to respond, helpful and extremely knowledgeable. From the initial offer to closing Jay and the firm of Slifer, Smith and Frampton were with us every step of the way! We are now proud owners of our own ski condo in Summit County. We will be quick to recommend them to anyone we know who has interest in a property in Summit County. "

" We have been looking over the years for a vacation property in Beaver Creek. We we finally found one we wanted the best choice we made was having Steve Cardinale assist us with the transaction. 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 am an attorney with a real estate license; nonetheless, we elected to retain Chris Lankhorst to sell our Keystone vacation condo because of his almost 2 decades of experience in the Summit County market. It paid off. Within days of the condo going on the market, he obtained an offer for the highest price, by far, in my community. He is exceptionally experienced in the local market and his company has a large pool of buyers. He was very experienced in dealing with multiple property managers (building and the unit), issues with selling furnished property, issues with showing property while on a rental program, and all other unique aspects of selling vacation property. He is familiar with all the key parties involved in such a transaction so everything moved quickly and efficiently. I strongly recommend working with Chris. "

" I cannot say enough about the level of service and attention I received from my SS&F broker Jay Peterson. I first contacted the SS&F office in September '18 and was connected with Jay. I was beginning my search for a vacation property in Beaver Creek, but was not in a rush and wanted to get a feel of what was available in the marketplace. Over the next two years, Jay would reach out to me every few months or so (not too much!) to check in on my interest level. Various things prevented me from getting serious about finding a place, but Jay hung in there and kept the contact and listings coming. Finally in September '20, I reached to Jay to say 'now is the time'. He worked with me over the next few weeks to determine specifics of what I was looking for, expanded my search area, and had about 20 properties for me to look at when I traveled out in October '20. I found the ideal property for me, and Jay was so instrumental in the lengthy negotiation to get to contract. Through the closing process, Jay was always available, was proactive, and went above and beyond to get to a successful close. I strongly recommend SS&F and Jay! "

- Patricia Carpen

" We had the privilege to work with Kelly and Kim on a complicated transaction this summer that involved a number of contingencies. 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. I don't think we could have made it all happen without Kelly and Kim's dedication to get the deal done and to get it done right. "

- Patrick Hasselbach

Clear advice that reduced the endowment effect I had regarding pricing. His assistant Lea Zugschwerdt was very efficient with updates on feedback from potential buyers. The final transaction went very smoothly, with quick fixes for minor issues in the unit, clean-up, etc. Great team. "

- Cyrus Ghavam

" Michelle Hart and Jim Schlegel are a great team. They play off of each other’s strengths impressively. Together they solved issues that came up after we had left Colorado, and brought the lodge to closing in a timely matter. They also coordinated well with the buyers realtor and kept everyone appraised of the situation. "

- Marveyn Gadowski

" I have bought five homes with Dudley. He's the best! "

- Lindsay Webbe

" 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. "
