At Home In The Vail Valley...

" 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.

" I highly recommend Carling Bennett for any real estate needs. Her high level of professionalism and eye to detail were made obvious from the very beginning. She is very knowledgeable about the home buying process and this was very comforting. Also, her response time was extremely fast, whether that be email, text, or cell phone seven days a week. We had a couple instances where we were out of the country with no internet or cell phone access, but Carling made sure that this was not an issue, which pleasantly surprised me that this did not negatively affect us. I would not hesitate to use Carling for future real estate needs and would recommend her over any other real estate agent with whom I've dealt. "

- Chris Sears

" Donna Caynoski, was very prepared and very professional throughout the whole sales process. She kept us informed on a regular basis, kept track of critical dates and made sure those items were all handled on a timely manner. I was very impressed and strongly recommend Donna as your broker. "

Stephanie is extremely accessible and goes above and beyond to assist her clients. We felt that she truly had our best interest in mind and gave us her honest opinion on the properties we visited. She made the home buying process seem effortless." "

- T. Elchenko

" Carling did an amazing job getting our house sold. She really knows the market and what it takes to get a house to close. There were a number of small issues we needed to address.

" Kim Bradley with Slifer Smith and Frampton is one of the best real estate brokers I've worked with period! She quickly understood our needs and applied her knowledge of Eagle and quickly found the right property for us. It was also great to get such great insight on our future purchase which made us more comfortable with our purchase as the timing was critical. "

- Jon Gilbertson

" As a first-time homebuyer in this crazy market, I felt very overwhelmed at times but Carling made the entire process as stress-free and painless as possible - I felt totally guided and supported throughout. Carling knows the valley and has such a good read on the market. Knowing I could trust her not only to find a great home for me but also to guide me through the process and teach me along the way was invaluable. Carling is simply the best! "

- Anna Katherine Burchenal

" 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! "

" While we are very happy that our house is sold, we are saddened that we will no longer be in daily contact with Led Gardner, one of the finest men on the planet. Not only did Led capably fulfill the obligations of broker, he went the extra mile in representing our property to its fullest potential. Open houses and broker visits were handled with great dignity and careful planning. No matter the request, he was always available and always a gentleman. Three transactions. $3,750,000 sale in Arrowhead. $1,300,000 purchase and $1,515,000 sale in Cordillera "

- David Schlendorf, Cordillera Valley Club

" 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. "

- Bobby Schmidt

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

- Richard & Cari Wehrheim

" Working with Eric Burgund to purchase our unit at the Riverfront Lodge in Avon was truly a pleasure. He is very personable and professional and was always available to answer questions.

" Many years ago, we decided to take our first family skiing vacation. Having three young children at the time, I asked an ex-colleague, who had moved to Colorado, for a suggestion as to where we might visit. Without hesitation he recommended Beaver Creek as being the most family-friendly ski resort in the country. Soon thereafter, we found ourselves as never-ever skiers enrolled in ski school. It took only two short days to realize that Beaver Creek was the place where we wanted to have a winter home. After ice-skating one evening in the village, we walked into the local Slifer office to investigate real estate possibilities. You happened to be on floor duty that night. Admittedly, we were completely in the dark as to how much money we wanted to spend, whether we wanted a home or a condo, or what particular location would best suit us. Both Vickie and I immediately felt comfortable with the patience you displayed and the friendly and welcoming manner with which you greeted us. As you might remember, you spent a generous amount of time introducing us to the community and showing us a diverse menu of potential properties. Our own decision resulted in quite a delay in our ultimate choice. After numerous plane trips and the passing of a number of years, your patience and attention to our quest never abated. With your assistance, we finally chose a property that was perfect for our needs. Upon reflection, your efforts on our behalf went well beyond the boundaries of a traditional real estate brokerage. Your advise during the bidding process, your suggestions with regard to financing options, and ultimately your recommendation of a wonderful interior designer all proved to be invaluable contributions to a project which has given our family much joy. As a final note, your confidence in the soundness of our investment (the largest we have ever made) provided the inspiration necessary for us to pursue this transaction. It has been nothing short of a privilege to work with a man of your expertise and integrity. Both Vickie and I look forward to a life-long friendship with you and your family. Sincerely, Todd and Vickie Green "

" Led Gardner exemplifies the art of selling high end mountain real estate. From developing marketing materials to showing property to timely open houses, Led is on the front end of the selling process. Unlike some relators who are essentially order takers, waiting for the phone to ring, Led is actively and progressively introducing his listings to other realtors and buyer prospects in a professional manner that produces results. We have worked with Led on both the buy and sell side and his expertise, knowledge, guidance and advice is best-in-class. From diplomatically working thru buyer-seller differences to helping at every step of the transaction, including carrying boxes to the moving van, Led is there â?? making a difference. We wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend Led Gardner for your next real estate transaction. $1,695,000 purchase and $2,300,000 sale in Vail "

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

They were extremely prompt in getting our home ready to sell and marketing prepared, including virtual tours and great photography. They were creative and used their resources in finding the right buyer and stayed persistent and communicative during the entire process. We were also buying a new property at the time and they helped us navigate all the dates and coordination of making that happen. We are thrilled with the sale and purchase of our homes! "

He answered all of my questions and never pressured me to make a decision, he let me go at my pace. All because of him, I was able to find my perfect first home! "

" 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

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

- Riverfront Holdings LLC

" From start to finish Jack was there anytime for any reason. He had innovative ideas for photography, staging, and marketing.

" 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! "

- Andrew Ferraro

" We would like to recommend Diana Mathias as a very smart and efficient realtor. This, however, does not adequately describe her talents. She has just sold our Townhouse in Vail in around two weeks during the Covid-19 pandemic for a good price. We live in the Bahamas and she has handled all the problems of having absent client owners. We cannot over emphasize how this has helped us at a difficult time for us all. We know that whoever uses Diana will not be disappointed. "

- Alan & Dianne

" 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

" The experience my husband and I had working with Jay Peterson and SSF was outstanding. We live out of state and thus were unable to view the progress on our condo as it was being constructed. Jay went above and beyond to send us pictures and keep us updated. Our entire transaction, from start to finish, was smooth and painless (actually it was enjoyable!) We will definitely work with Jay and SSF on any future transactions we have in the area. "

- Carole Faig

" I hired Robert to help me purchase my first home and had very specific goals in mind. Robert helped me achieve those goals and more. He even showed me an area I was unfamiliar with that ended up being the perfect location for me. I could not have been happier with the outcome and working with Robert. I would recommend Robert to anyone; his knowledge, negotiation skills, compassion, and demeanor are excellent and he will be your go-to Realtor! "

" It has been a very good relationship since day one. We came as guests the first time and came back home as owners of one unit. SSF help has been more than great since then and we really feel like friends instead of clients. "

" Nicky White is a superb broker. She helped us fairly understand the value of the house before we listed it. She was extremely responsive to our questions and concerns, promptly returning our phone calls and texts, and suggesting solutions to our issues. We really felt that she had an interest in the property and would get us the best possible price. She was also extremely helpful in finding professionals to do some of the punchlist items that were requested by the buyers. We have purchased and sold many homes in various areas of the country, and found Nicki to be the best broker that we have dealt with. "

- Margaret Garvey Trust

" The choice to use the expertise of Julie Retzlaff and SSF comes from having had previous transactions handled by this team and knowing that our interest would always be a priority. Our numerous experiences with Julie and SSF have always been very professional and we have always benefited from their advice. We recommend Julie and SSF to anyone wanting a combination of a professional and personal relationship with the team that represents them. "

" Brooke Horan-Kates is an extraordinary broker who puts personal relationship ahead of commissions. She has helped me build a valuable rental portfolio in Eagle. "

- 510 Brush Creek LLC

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

" The expertise that Diana Mathias brought to our home search in Eagle County was unmatched. Her perseverance, patience, and unwavering personal attention led us ultimately to the perfect home for us. We could not have done it without her. "

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

Not only does Janice bring a tremendous amount of experience and knowledge about the Vail Valley, she also brings homeowners like us the resources to make the dream a reality. Janice is well connected, trusted and respected within the real estate community and can help all homeowners navigate through the process.In short, Janice has always been on our side. Not only did she help get us in our dream home, she keeps us informed of market conditions and has our optimal real estate position in mind. We would highly recommend Janice Ciampa-Bauer. "

" 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. "

- Eagle Homebuyer

" As a first-time home buyer, Carling's help was invaluable. Before we put in an offer, she made me feel comfortable and confident with the whole process. Her knowledge of the market is incredible, and she was able to get me in to look at my new home and prepare an offer before it had even listed. She did a great job of negotiating with the selling broker while we were going under contract and through the inspection. Throughout the whole process, Carling ensured there was very little work necessary on my end. I know home-buying (especially the first time!) is supposed to be incredibly stressful, but everything went smoothly. Compared to some of my friends who recently bought their first homes, my experience was a cake-walk! "

- Sarah A. Wilson

" Brooke was great! She was so professional and knew the market so well. Her familiarity with neighborhood comps and price per square foot were essential for me to get the right price for my home. She is very good at what she does and I highly recommend her! "

" Stephanie Hart was by far the best broker we’ve ever worked with—highly recommend. "

- Alexess Smith

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

- Shane Gremmer

" Crissy is the best broker I have ever dealt with. She was very helpful through out the process. She did things for us that are beyond the realm of a broker-client relationship up until the closing and beyond. We were doing this entire thing from out of town and it is amazing how smooth it all progressed. She did not only help us with the issues related to the purchase. There w ere a lot of other things she helped us with, i.e., contracting a management company, transfer of the electricity, etc. "

- T.O.- Buyer from Texas

" Tina singlehandedly made our purchase a reality. I couldn't imagine a better broker. "

- Daniel Gibson

" Stephanie Hart went above and beyond to sell our home.

Janice fully understood what we were looking for and set up a daily email with a shortlist of potential properties and would respond promptly with any further information we required even though she had never met us before. Our perfect home popped up one day and Janice immediately jumped on it and had a personal 'video tour' organized the very next day. My wife and I highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase in and around the Vail Valley as she is very responsive and gets the job done! "

- Robin Howard

" I chose Steve Cardinale because he is with Slifer Smith and Frampton, which has an excellent reputation in the Valley and Steve has a great track record for selling condos at St James Place.

They were very accommodating and listened to all of our requests and concerns. They were always willing and ready to be available if we needed assistance or had questions. We hugged and cried together on closing day, and we can't wait to have them over to enjoy the house with us! We feel like a KING and QUEEN living in our new Soleil home and have been walking on air since our closing! We Highly recommend working with Kelly and Kim and will be sending more references their way. "

- Shelby Crummer

" 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. "

- Alice W. Stephens

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

- Former Cordillera multiple property owner

" We had an extraordinary experience selling our home with Happy and Emily. The listing was up for a very short time before we accepted an offer that was very near our asking price. All of the open houses and showings were very professionally handled. I would recommend them for anyone wishing to sell or purchase a home in our valley! "

- Noel Harris

" We would highly recommend Betsy. She gave us her undivided attention every step of the way, always going above and beyond, and we ended up with a house we are in LOVE with. "

- Burke D.

" Cathy Jones Coburn handled the listing for us on two projects in Bachelor Gulch. The total sales value of these projects exceeded $40,000,000. In both cases, and at all times, Cathy performed as the consummate professional. She presented the projects in a thorough and knowledgeable manner and represents the interests of both buyer and seller fairly and professionally. Cathy is a team player. She provides valuable feedback and insights to the project team throughout the development and is always ready, willing and able to move an issue forward when she sees that the team needs her assistance. Cathy was a joy to work with during the 3 years of our development time. She is always cheerful and optimistic, but never loses sight of reality and never loses her totally professional attitude and approach towards the job at hand. "

" 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. "

Huge thank you to Julie and her Slifer backing. "

- Walter Scott Living Trust

" We could not have had a better experience with our realtor Carling Bennett or SSF. My wife, our three daughters and I all fell in love with Beaver Creek upon our first visit, but knew little about this real estate market. While we were interested in purchasing a property, the thought of doing so was a bit daunting. Carling did a fantastic job of helping us get comfortable with the market so that when the right property presented itself we were ready to move forward. Thank you Carling and SSF for making our dream come true! "

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

" Just want to say that you are the most responsive and professional real estate broker I have ever worked with, in all my years of buying and selling many homes throughout the country. You can quote me on that. If you ever need a reference we’re happy to do so. Singletree - $1,675,000 plus three additional transactions "

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

" 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 "

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

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

- Tim & Mary

" Doug Landin is exactly what you want in a broker. He's a reliable, trustworthy, and hard working individual who is always looking out for his client.

" Since our arrival to the Valley years ago, Pam and I have utilized Molly for the purchase of three homes and the sale of two of those. With every transaction she has provided us an exceptional level of service. With each transaction, she was able to ascertain our needs, show us property that met those needs, provide us a very realistic picture of the local market, which was essential because of our primary residence in Florida. She guided us expertly through the processes of closing and always provided us guidance above and beyond the issue of commission. She exceeded our expectations when it came to selling our properties. She has become a good friend and we would recommend her to anyone in the Valley. "

" The team of Kim, Kelly and Aaron with SSF were simply amazing. We have used them to both buy and sell real estate several times, and they've never missed a step. Their knowledge of the area, relationship with the community, and approachable professionalism make working with them so easy and simple. They clearly have a great connection with their brokerage office, and are able to 'make things happen' that seemed impossible. Clear and consistent communication is very important to us, and Kelly kept us up to date and informed every step of the way, even when there was nothing we needed to do on our end. I wish I could take them with me when we moved out of the valley! "

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

" Without a doubt, Led Gardner would be at the top of my list of superior performers. In marketing a multi-million dollar property for me, Led took total control and responsibility. His knowledge of the market, combined with his good instincts and the ability to cultivate buyer interest resulted in a sale at a price that was fair for both the buyer and the seller. Without a doubt, Led worked for and earned his commission. For anyone needing a highly motivated, hard working, honest and ethical professional in real estate, I would urge you to consider Led Gardner.

" I would like to recommend Robert M. Lee, III as one of the most outstanding young Realtors who has worked for me over the past several years. I rate his enthusiasm, market knowledge, negotiation skills, and ability to find the right buyer as totally outstanding. He is a Five Star Realtor that gets the job done the way you want it done, whether you are the buyer or seller. He has sold two homes for me in the past four years. In each case we sold our homes above the asking price. The second was in a tough buyer’s market but Robert Lee came though with the right price and deal. He is my Realtor of choice and I will use him in the future. "

" Donna went above and beyond in every way possible. She had thorough information on several properties each time we went out, and when we chose one she found us insurance, handyman, hot tub service, property managers, appraisers, engineers, etc. She was at the property to confirm numerous services that needed to be done were done. She is by far the best realtor we have ever had. I would refer her to anyone and if a potential client would like a reference, I would be happy to provide one. - New Homeowner in Vail "

" Sometimes it can be difficult to find the right house, but it was easy with Brooke. We looked at houses that were just ok but then found one that would be amazing for our family. I shared information with Brooke also everyday as we bought our home. It was even better that she made it her job to make it all go well. WOW...thank you, Brooke, for being the best team member we could have had! "

" 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. "

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

" Every one of the over 20 transactions we have completed with Slifer over the years has been unique but this particular transaction had a number of complicated twists and turns. Lissa Tyler, our agent, brilliantly pieced together all the moving parts to successfully complete our sale. From arranging showings and open houses during the busy winter rental season, communicating and managing negotiations with owners who spend most of their time abroad (us!) to finding a suitable alternative property to move our pre-committed rental obligation - Lissa was on it. She could not have achieved this without her thorough knowledge of the area, attention to detail, many years of negotiations and extensive contacts in the Valley. We would highly recommend Lissa if you are looking for an agent with strong communication skills willing to aggressively market your property and skillfully bring negotiations to a successful conclusion.

I'm truly grateful to have had the opportunity to work with team K2. They provided phenomenal transparency in the somewhat cloudy purchasing process. "

" 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. "

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

" Moving can definitely be a stressful and busy endeavor, but I must say that having recently moved from Oregon, Molly was an enormous help. She is a veteran of the valley, knows the various towns and communities very well and was exceptionally quick to match our wants and needs.

" 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! "

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

- Jennifer B Pletcher

" Highly recommend Jack Affleck with Slifer, Smith and Frampton! Some real estate transactions are easy and quick; this was not one of those.

Even though I suspect that my purchase was on the lower end of their typical range, they treated me with respect and always made me feel like a priority. All communications were extremely prompt and professional, and they were great at educating me as a first time home-buyer. At the end of the day I feel like everyone won, and I could not be happier with my new home. "

" 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.

" Lissa has helped us buy 2 units in the Westin Riverfront in the last 2 years. She is knowledgeable about the area especially the Westin. She knows a lot of the tenants personally and she can shed insight on the property. Lissa is so hardworking that she even answers emails while on vacation. If I was buying another unit in the Vail Valley I would not hesitate to hire Lissa. "

" Working with Doug was a great pleasure. He was a transactional broker and was very good as a go between for the seller and myself. "

- Gregory White

" Doug was referred to us from a trusted friend. He listened to our relocation plans and mapped out numerous options. In addition, he helped us understand the market not only in Eagle but throughout the Vail Valley. He spent as much time as we needed to make a final decision. During the transaction he orchestrated a rather difficult and cumbersome short sale. We were very satisfied with our experience and recommend Doug highly. "

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

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

- Mark P

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

- Richard McBride

" We originally bought the house from Janice almost 30 years ago. She made a great effort to keep in touch with us. So, when it came time to sell,, we called on her again. She did a great job the first time, and a great job this last time. "

- Jean Turner

" 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.

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

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

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

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. "

" 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! "

" To Whom it may concern: My wife and I were looking to purchase a condo in Vail which would be on the Town of Vail Bus Route. I was using the internet to investigate and happened to email Diana. Diana immediately responded with ideas and suggestions. I gave her details of a visit that I planned over a weekend. She quizzed us on what we were looking for. Based on that information she set up visits to a number of varied condos in various locations around Vail that fitted our requirements. We found Diana to be extremely responsive and informative, she never put us under any pressure to purchase and basically chauffeured us around, took us back a number of times to see the properties, and by Sunday we had made an offer that was subsequently accepted. We have purchased homes elsewhere in America and Europe and I have to say that Diana made the whole process extremely simple and stress free, I would recommend her services to anyone. "

" Where do I start? Our experience with Jack was the best, by far, of all my real estate buy/sell experiences, for me this was my 17th home! For the sale of this specific Lake Creek home we interviewed many realtors in the area, reflected on what we needed for best of attributes - Jack was really it, we bonded very well. From the first meeting, key to us was how we would be marketed/promotion. Jack and his partner held open houses, got us on tour lists and with Jack's heritage as master photographer in Vail Valley, he took the best arial/drone footage along with the slick pieces that put us as leading edge(the home has unique killer valley views, to comp it didn;t do it justice). It also was terrific he rallied for us to get cover of Slifer Smith & Frampton magazine for a month! Key to closing is Jack also became the 'Jack of all trades' - he really went through hoops to help us to final closing. My husband/I travel, work.. our schedule is terrible - Jack truly made it all happen! I guess the best that I/we can say is we'll work with Jack again in a year on another home sale - wouldn't chose any differently as very thankful for Jack! "

" 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. "

Clever, persistent, representative of our interests all the way through the closing, Lissa is awesome! "

" 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. "

" Robert had helped me purchase my home in 2018 and when my situation changed due to the pandemic, he was my first call! As this was my first time selling a home, I was unsure of what to expect. He counseled me through the entire process and was able to help identify some easy fixes within the home to help the home sell quickly. His advice and marketing were effective as proven by the above price offer I received after just 2 days on the market. Robert was also able to negotiate an extended closing which allowed me the time I needed to take care of the various things I needed to before moving to another part of the country. During the process, there was a tough issue and Robert was quick to come up with a creative solution to keep everything on track. I only wish I could use Robert as my realtor in my new hometown! 5 stars-Highly recommended! "

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

" Thanks to Katherine, we were able to purchase the perfect property for our family in Vail. She is an absolute pro - smart, efficient, well-connected, great at building relationships and always available to answer questions. We can be demanding clients and ours was a complicated transaction. Our family of five had a long list of needs, our purchase was part of a 1031 exchange (so it needed to be closed on a tight and precise timeline), and we had to stay within a budget - all in the midst of record-low inventory leading up to the holiday season. We would've been lucky to find something that was just 'acceptable' - but instead Katherine found something great. She navigated the process from start to finish, anticipated and got ahead of issues, accommodated our busy work and travel schedules and got us into our new vacation home as seamlessly as possible. I'm still amazed that she was able to pull it all together. She is a pleasure to work with and delivers results - I would absolutely recommend her to my friends and family. "

- Matthew Stumphf

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

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

No surprise, he again worked tirelessly to make sure that we found the right unit and guided us through unfamiliar obstacles. "

- Charles Tsui

" This was our third purchase with Andrew and he has been an invaluable resource for us on all these occasions.

We used Happy for both transactions and were very pleased. This time I was selling my home in Eagle Ranch - the home I purchased as a single Mom 17 years ago and now had my 89 year old mother-in-law living there. Didi Doolittle was fantastic at being able to navigate through the necessary communication between me, my mother-in-law and potential buyers.

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

" 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 "

We had a long time frame for our purchase and Steve took the time to get to know us and understand our needs.

" My wife and I highly recommend Broby Leed to anyone looking for a home in Vail and the surrounding area. He is a hard worker and a great guy. We first met Broby Leeds about 3 years ago. We really liked his personality and positive nature. We were unsure about our plans to purchase at the time, but loved the Vail Area. Then came Covid-19. Regardless, Broby stayed in touch. He continued to send listings from time to time, and when we decided to move forward with our home search in Vail, he stepped up his efforts to regular emails and frequent calls. The market here in Vail has gone through a huge transition in the last 2 years, including price increases, and low inventory. That did not dissuade Broby. He made sure we were aware of every home that came to the market within hours and even produced some leads on homes not yet listed. He answered all of our questions, worked hard to get our offers in first position even when there were multiple offers. Once we contracted a home, he was instrumental in finding inspectors, contractors for estimates and repairs, and worked hard at every aspect of our transaction.........right through to the closing arrangements. Broby was raised in the area, and is from a Real Estate family. His connections and familiarity with the area have been invaluable. We expect to have a continued relationship Broby. We appreciate his support and the continued introductions to local business as we learn about the area, and Broby proves to just a phone call away. Happy to be part of the Team. Jonathan and Debbie Miller "

We look forward to working with Steve and Lea should we have future reality needs in the Vail area. "

He made a real effort to engage with us and to promote the apartment, even though his commission was going to be a tiny sum. It was sold within 6 months which for such a niche property was to our mind excellent. "

" Aaron, thank you for all your help in finding our new home. We were transitioning from a large home to a smaller home and had very specific needs. You took the time to meet with us and understand the features we wanted in our new home. You answered our questions promptly and gave us all the information we needed to put an offer on a house in Cotton Ranch. Once we were under contract, your communication as to deadlines and inspections was excellent. You were very accommodating in getting us and our subcontractors in to the property a number of times to measure and finalize plans. It has been a pleasure working with you! Thank You! "

Nancy’s advice is always spot-on as she has helped us navigate two purchases and one sale. Moreover, she is a charming, warm person and always a pleasure to talk to. I cannot recommend Nancy enough. "

- Andrew Koss

" We chose Cathy to represent the sale of our homesite though we had just purchased it two months prior. Not only did she invests in videography and professional photos, she organized the heavily valued file of information for buyers so they were shown the immediate value of this property given all of the reports that had been completed. It sold quickly and we made money on the sale after a short time owning it. We attribute this profit due to Cathy’s team preliminary prep work. Our property had more value than others to a buyer. My husband and I were thrilled with Cathy and her team from day one. From the moment they met with us at our home we received the best in service, follow up, communication and information we needed to make the right decisions. Thank you for making this transaction go so smoothly Cathy, you and your team are exceptional. "

" Aaron is the man. I was new to the valley 2 years ago and met with him to look at a small condo. The small condo was nice but not my ultimate goal. Aaron worked with myself and girlfriend for almost a full TWO YEARS searching and looking and calling us whenever something interesting came up in our budget. We finally found the property that fit our style. Then Aaron really began to shine. Being a first time homebuyer I had question upon question each one answer with no hesitation or and with no delay. He was instrumental in coordinating with the other broker, the lender, and my self for any item that needed attention. I can honestly say Aaron made the entire process as almost hassle free as buying a home can be. 11/10 would recommend. "

The second was the charm and we couldn’t be happier. Katherine guided us through the competitive market and our offer was accepted. She was there for us throughout the entire closing process. Katherine was quick to provide answers to all our questions. She stopped by after the closing to help us get settled in. We highly recommend Katherine King. "

We literally could not have purchased our place without Julie. She found it, negotiated the deal, stuck with it through closing procedures and then ensured that the property was empty and properly vacated as expected. We loved working with Julie and would happily recommend her to anyone.... She didn't even ask me to write this review. She is that good !! Thank you Julie for everything! "

- Steven C.

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

- Donald Zelkind

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

" Led was always available every step of the way. Most importantly he was there for most showings to give and get any information the buyer asked for. During family emergency, his wife Connie filled in superbly. What a team. He was candid with me about pricing and making a deal happen. During the pandemic he wiped down banisters and made sure lookers wore masks. I felt very secure to come home as I was living in the house until it sold. He walked me though everything even to the title company for closing. My second sale in the valley with Led. You can have complete confidence that he is the best realtor in the valley to list your house with. "

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

" 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! "

" Professional, knowledgeable and friendly made our transaction seamless.

" Pam helped me purchase my first and second house in the Vail Valley. She is also in the process of helping me sell the first house so I have had experience with her on both the buying and selling end of the business. Pam is professional, knowledgable and very personable. For our second house my wife and I laid out what we were looking for. Pam and her assistant, Brooke, did all of the research and culling to come up with a short list that met our desires. We toured the finalists in one solid work day. It was obvious that Pam and Brooke spent considerable time considering our desires and brought the search down to a very manageable set of options. From ONE day of looking we quickly narrowed the search down to one candidate that met our needs and was a match to our location, price point and environmental preferences. Pam helped us with the negotiations and we arrived at an acceptable purchase price within a few days. The purchase of our second house was TOTALLY professional and we are very happy with the outcome of our search and the home we are now living in. "

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

Her creative marketing efforts and hard work during the crisis were crucial in getting our place sold quickly and efficiently.

" 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. "

" We have been coming to Vail for many years and have always considered buying a second home in the Valley. To make this purchase possible took working with Carling Bennett. Her organization, responsiveness, negotiation skills and local knowledge enabled us finally decide on a property. It can be challenging to negotiate and finalize a real estate transaction remotely but Carling made it possible. I might add that this transaction also took place during the COVID-19 pandemic! Although we saw the property in person, the rest of the sale was successfully accomplished by putting our trust in Carling. Her integrity as a person and a professional, combined with her warm personality made our new home purchase truly a pleasurable, successful experience. "

Unfortunately, it was a popular listing, and there were multiple offers. I feel Nicky helped to guide us through the stressful situation, and we ended up winning the contract.

We would definitely recommend Nicky to friends looking for an honest, experienced, and knowledgeable broker. "

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

The final transaction went very smoothly, with quick fixes for minor issues in the unit, clean-up, etc. Great team. "

- Singletree Buyer

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

- Kathryn L. Carson

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

Led displayed the utmost professionalism and kindness throughout the entire process, even extending after the sale was complete! He always seemed to be one step ahead of any questions I had and was constantly looking out for our best interests. I can honestly say that Led is heads and shoulders above any real estate agent we have ever worked with, and we have bought and sold over a dozen homes over the years. Thank you Led! "

- Diana and Tracy Hankins

" 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. "

" Heather Rawlings is a fantastic realtor. We have enjoyed getting to know her over the years and she treats her clients as if they are her only one. She took the time to get to know our needs and pursued what we were looking for until we were satisfied. Additionally, Heather is respectful of the real estate business and is extremely ethical. Heather is one of the hardest working realtors out there and would bend over backwards to host an open house or show a client something they were interested in. When we worked with Heather we felt that she really cared about us and went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied clients. "

- Maggie

" We have known Ed Swinford as both our trusted realtor and friend since the early 1990’s. He has been our realtor on four transactions in the Valley during that time. We have recommended him to a number of our friends who have also been extremely please and complimentary of the service they received. You will not find a more knowledgeable, concerned, or caring team to work with and for you, than Ed, Brent Rimel, and Lacey Hearn while selling or buying property in the Valley. Even after the closing of the property, they were still helping in any and all ways possible. After our closing they saw us through the packing and loading of the house, lent us a car, drove Sue to the airport, and facilitated the moving of our piano. A few horseback rides, dinners, and a trip to Brent’s dads 10th Mt. Division property was icing on the cake! "

" 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. "

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

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

- Cheryl Emmeluth Liv Trust

" 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! "

" Our experience with Jack Affleck was outstanding. Monika and I own a condo in Lionshead in Vail. We enjoy this condo as both an investment and a second home. We were interested in a new building in our area, The Lion, as a possible upgrade. Over the course of ten days Jack spent several hours with us touring the Lion, providing us with information on the building, providing us with multiple contacts for financing and getting market information on our current condo. Jack took notes during all our discussions and got back ASAP on all questions. He did everything possible to enable us to make an informed decision that was right for us. More than once, Jack said that looking for a new condo should fun and we should only decide to purchase if it felt right. There was never any pressure sales pitch. In the end we did not purchase a new condo. No regrets on Jack's part. He supported our decision. The process with Jack was comfortable and fun. We felt like we were in good hands and getting honest informed information. We would definitely go to Jack for any future Vail area real estate activities. "

Rick is simply THE BEST. "

" Carling was so responsive and invested in finding the home that was right for me. Being a first-time home buyer, myself, she didn't just go through the process and have me sign on the line. She walked me through everything to make sure I had a full understanding of the home-buying process, which was greatly appreciated. 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. We were one of the first to make an offer on the home I know own. Great experience. Thanks for all your help, Carling! "

" Over the last 25 years, we have had the pleasure of being assisted in all of our numerous Beaver Creek and Vail Valley property purchases and sales by Steve. The experience has been consistently stress-free, pressure-free and seamless. Steve's easy going nature coupled with his peerless knowledge of the market has been a tremendous benefit to us. Whenever we need any real estate information about the Vail Valley, Steve has become our #1 go-to person. We have no hesitation in recommending him. "

- Linda S.

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

- Tom and Mary Alice

" Thank you very much for closing our 6th transaction together! Excellent work from you, Janice. Where would I be without you? I will definitely use you next time. I highly recommended Janice as a professional and knowledgeable Broker. "

" Jack has great expertise in the Vail and Beaver Creek areas as he has lived in the area for many years. 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 would recommend Jack as your next real estate agent. "

- Anna Kuhn

" 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! "

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

From our first contact via email, to our local tours of properties, to finally working on through our closing, Steve was utterly fantastic to work with. He never tired of our constant questions and needs. He was always very prompt with his responses and anticipated possible issues and questions.

With her years of experience and expertise, we could trust that the answers she gave us were exact. Being in the real estate business myself, I think I am a demanding client - Cathy fulfilled and exceeded all of my demands.

" Wow, Robert comes to the table with the full package. He is extremely knowledgeable but humble. He will show up to every meeting dressed to impress with a big smile on his face. His unwavering positivity makes working with him a joy.During the process of buying my house, we hit a couple of challenges. Robert was quick to come-up with solutions. I trusted him as a complete advocate. He even helped with questions that were outside his area of responsibility (i.e. where is the mail and what is the trash schedule).Overall, he is a fantastic realtor. You will be very happy working with him. "

" We have dealt with Cathy on several transactions and she is consistently light years ahead of any other broker. She knows the market intimately and can quickly guide the customer to the right position. She is immediate and thorough in managing transactions, doesn’t miss a single detail, and is proactive in coordinating all aspects of the deal. Her support team is also reliable and proficient. She also is a pleasure to work with. I can see why she is consistently the top performer!! "

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

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

" We met Diana while she was having an open house. Not our style home but we started talking with Diana and she offered to show us other homes in the area of the Vail valley right after the open house was over which was about 20 minutes from the time we entered. She was very knowledgable of the area and knew of several homes for sale within our price point. From that meeting we scheduled followup meetings with her while she sent us information on homes and areas in the area. After 3 different days of visiting homes we found the home we purchased. Diana was ALWAYS prepared with all the information we requested and she had it when we visited and did not have to followup with it at a later date. She had country club comparison spread sheets, interest rate data, tax and transfer fee data, comp pricing, asking price to sell ratios, and days on the market information. She was also able to give us price per sq. footage data on each house without being asked. When we made an offer she was very aware of all the contract detail and helped us through it as we were from out of state and not familiar with Colorado real estate law. We did hire a real estate attny to further protect us but Diana was correct in all her direction. Diana followed every step of the process through closing and was there to help in any way she could. She also introduced us to many facets of the community as well. Two and a half years later we have remained friends and we have recommended Diana to 2 other couples interested in purchasing locally, one on the opening price end of the real estate market and one on the higher end and both are very happy with her service. She will also list our home if we ever decide to sell it. We would rate her as one of the best realtor we have ever met and we have purchased and sold 12 homes so far in multiple cities across the country. "

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

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

- Shaila Wylie

" The entire Eagle SSF team was great to work with. I loved the camaraderie of the team, the sharing of ideas in marketing the property. I especially appreciated the dedication and persistence of our designated broker, Aaron Rabins, who stuck with us over almost 3 years, who kept us well informed, and who negotiated very nicely between us as sellers and the buyers broker. He was always easily accessible, but often contacted me before I had a chance to contact him. "

" Ann Foster has been our realtor for a almost two years. During that time we looked at dozens of homes. It was not an easy process since we live in the east coast. Ann listened very careful to our necessities and was very careful in selecting which homes to show us. Her patience and friendly personality made us create a bond and today we see her not only as our real state broker but also as a dear friend of hers and her family. She never gave up on us and never pushed us to make the wrong decision. This summer she finally found us the perfect home and she managed the closing process flawlessly. I would recommend Ann to anyone who is looking for a home in the Vail área. She is absolutely the best. Thank you Ann!!! "

George is a seasoned professional and excellent communicator who made certain that all of our transactions were efficient, smooth, and respectful.

" Ann Foster was an amazing broker in our transaction. Over a period of two years, we probably looked at 70 or 80 homes. Even though a few worked along the way, my wife and I did not have a joint agreement with 100 percent confidence on any until our ultimate purchase. Ann spent so much time with us and even on short notice, she would drop everything to show a property. The purchase of our property was a funny story. After a 6 week stay in Vail, we were about to head back to Denver to catch our flight. Ann called my wife, and she didnt answer the phone with, "hello", but rather, "dont tell me you have another home....". Ann proceeded to explain that the home in Cordillera just came on the market and she emailed a listing flyer on the property. Many homes look appealing on the flyers, but this one was different because it was only two years old. I asked Ann if she could get an appointment. She said she would and then back peddled because the listing agent had a note that 24 hours was necessary to schedule an appointment. Ann said to give her 5 minutes and she called the listing broker who told her that he will show the house, but he had to leave by 5 pm for his wife's birthday. It was now 3:45 pm and we were still in Vail (with an 11 pm flight out of Denver). An important footnote to this is that the listing agent was John Tyler who also works at Slifer. We rushed to the house, and before we even walked upstairs, my wife looked at me and we both gave a thumbs up to each other (without Ann seeing). I must share this testimonial on Ann with John because John played such an important role in finalizing this transaction. We already had amazing experience with Ann, but then having a second agent from Slifer involved put the stamp on the quality of Slifer agents. We paid asking price (nothing I am bragging about) and signed the contract in the rental car return bus on the way to the airport. John told us that if we pay asking price, he will get the deal finalized. I think everyone was happy. I know we were happy, I think the sellers were happy, and both Ann and John were also happy. You have a great team and when we are ready to trade up, Ann will be our agent. Max Benoliel "

" Robert went above and beyond in every way, and was amazing to work with throughout our home buying process. Robert and his team were friendly and kind, and his experience was evident through his professionalism. Throughout our search, Robert was prompt, informative, attentive, and honest, and he always had time for each and every one of our endless questions. When we found the perfect home within our budget, Robert was instrumental in delivering a solid and competitive offer package, and his relationships with essential parties, such as lenders and home inspectors, was greatly appreciated and made the entire process seamless. If you are searching for a real estate agent that will make your home buying process simple and fun, look no further that Robert Lee! "

" Steve and Lea make a wonderful team. Each are professional, knowledgeable, kind, and thorough. Even though it was Covid, and my wife and I were 800 miles away, we had complete confidence that they both would represent our interests, provide the information about the acquisition on a timely basis, and make sure that they stepped into situations that we would normally be participating in had we been in Beaver Creek. This is my seventh transaction with Steve and Lea, and each one has turned out beautifully. I heartily recommend that anyone considering buying a property in Eagle County also consider using Steve as your agent. Our family is thrilled with our new condo and we have Steve and Lea to thank for helping us acquire it. Steve Goldberg "

" Jack Affleck spent a lot of time with me and my husband to make sure we were ready to list our home. When we decided we wanted to sell, Jack had everything ready to go. Jack shot professional photos, he studied the market and we decided on a price and time frame when we wanted to sell. Jack did everything we ask of him. We would highly recommend using Jack Affleck for selling or purchasing a home or homesite. Thank you Jack! "

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

" Doug was great to work with. Knows the market well and home values in the area. We have another property listed with him and are looking to buy another one through him-- so I'd say that shows our level of confidence in him! "

" Tina Vardaman is a rockstar! She made the entire experience a positive one. Tina was organized, strategic, available and extremely thoughtful during our often daily interactions. My wife and I liked her personally and would highly recommend her. "

" Over the course of two years Janice helped me and my wife buy a wonderful Townhome in Edwards, sell a two bedroom Condo in Eagle Vail, then sell the first Townhome and then buy a dream single family home in upper Homestead. Her extreme knowledge of Eagle County and ability to listen and provide exactly what the client wanted was amazing. She was just tremendous to work with, weather your buying or selling a home she will get the job done for you and in your best interest. Janice is Very professional and detail orientated. I would highly recommend her to anyone and my wife and I would not use anyone else for our real estate needs. "

" Andrew Cryer was a pleasure to work with (again) on the sale of our Beaver Creek home. He is very knowledgeable about Beaver Creek. He is well organized, efficient, and highly responsive. His communications are direct, clear and timely. His follow-up is terrific. The other brokers in the Highlands Team, Molly Griffin and Eric Burgund, work as a team, providing seamless backup and service. "
