" 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. "

" I have been looking for the “perfect” 2nd home in the Vail Valley for many years(8 actually!). My amazing broker Tina Vardaman stuck with me the whole time, keeping me posted on trends and neighborhoods. When the “perfect” property came up, she jumped on it, called right away and we made an offer. 6 weeks later we moved in. Tina managed every step of the closing process for me and made this the easiest real estate purchase of my life. She literally took care of everything and went way above and beyond. As an out of town buyer with a busy life and work, I could never have done it without her. Sticking with me for so many years as I tried to figure out what kind of home we wanted to buy and in what area was heroic. We are so happy in our new Vail house, thank you Tina! You are an 12 out of 10!!! "

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

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

SSF AND HIS ASSOCIATION WERE JUST THE "ICING ON THE CAKE"! AT THIS TIME, ETHICS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT AND PAUL'S WORD IS - AS LEA'S FATHER, DEL MAYNE USED TO SAY - GOOD AS GOLD AND YOU CAN TAKE THAT TO THE BANK!! LEA WAS BORN AND RAISED IN THE EAGLE/VAIL VALLEY, AND HER PARENTS HAD A BUSINESS IN AVON FOR OVER 37 YEARS PRIOR TO THE BEGINNING OF VAIL. SHE WAS RAISED IN BUSINESS ALL OF HER LIFE, AND PROFESSIONALS SUCH AS PAUL GOTTHELF, WERE THE "NORM" AND EXPECTED MANNER IN DOING BUSINESS! "

" Nancy:As we are in the midst of the Holiday Season, I am taking this time to reflect on the good things that are in my life. As you will recall, we first met many years ago, probably at least 10 or so, while I was roaming the halls at The Ritz Carlton. While at the time I never thought we would be able to buy a place in Bachelor Gulch, you put up with us, have always been kind to us, and always put up with discussions about things. This year, you made our year with the purchase of my Bear Paw.Not many brokers would do the things that you do in terms of initial working relationships and maintaining those over several years, particularly knowing the time and dedication that it took on your part to help us find our new get-away home. I have worked with several brokers in my career, you are absolutely at the top of the list in terms of professionalism and guidance. Your support, texts and kindness, are also a true and unique example of why you are a trendsetter in your professionalism! Outstanding and so so important in today’s world about relationship building, Thank you again so much. No one is better in our book than Nancy! Thank you again! "

" 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. "

She is honest, thorough, hard-working, and in control of the contractual details to get the deal completed. Her pleasant demeanor remains constant no matter the difficulties that arise while selling and closing the deal. Happy knows the Singletree neighborhood very well as both a resident and a Broker. We definitely recommend contacting her when ready to buy or sell in Singletree, Edwards, Colorado. We are proud to call Happy our friend! "

" 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. "

- Paul Schnell

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

Highly professional, friendly , and always made me feel welcome to contact him with any questions or concerns regarding our time share . "

" 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. "

" 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. "

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

- The Rousselot Trust

" 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. "

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. "

She was extremely responsive to our questions and concerns, promptly returning our phone calls and texts, and suggesting solutions to our issues.

From the moment we discussed possibly listing our home to the week we actually did, they helped guide us toward what would be needed to feature our property in the best possible listing time and various listing outlets. The entire process went smoothly and upon listing, we had it sold within 3 days. Then all through the closing process we were kept abreast of the upcoming stages and needs, right up until the actual virtual closing.

I agree wholeheartedly with the article when it says you have a “skill set, demeanor, and style” to coach not only other brokers, but also wimpy buyers through the process of acquiring luxury properties.

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

" 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. "

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.

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

Cathy knows the properties, the comparative values, the overall market, the nuances of the developments and also has the network of support resources like legal and financing that make it almost a one stop process. Her professional values, business ethics and integrity are top notch and she is personally a delight to work with and get to know. All in all... a rare combination of attributes. "

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! "

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. "

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!!! "

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

" 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. "

You will be very happy working with him. "

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. "

" Jack was a pleasure to work with--he is laid-back, patient, knowledgeable and, overall, a good guy. He voluntarily previewed properties on my behalf (including sending me pics and video clips), was always available via email, phone or text and searched diligently for the right property. He knows Eagle County well and was super helpful in narrowing our search. The transaction was straightforward, smooth and efficient. I would definitely work with Jack again and recommend him to others! "

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

- John Reed Wilcox Trust

" Working with Steve & Lea was not only a great experience but also a pleasure. I can't imagine how can they be more professional and friendly.

Thank you both, Steve & Lea for your hard work and for guiding me in the successful sale of my property. "

" Steve is a very fine agent and person. I would strongly endorse him to anyone purchasing a property in the Beaver Creek area. "

- Ron McDaniel

" 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. "

- JLM Paramount LLC

" The entire K2 team was fantastic from start to finish. They were always available for any questions I had and made the entire process of buying my home super comfortable.I would recommend the team to friends if they are in the market for a new home. "

" Met Rachel through church and was happy to discover she was in real estate! She helped us comb through about 25 properties and did background work to find out more about some of the quirks the homes had in answer to some of our questions. It was kind of nice to feel like we had not only an agent but a friend going through the homes with us to key in on what we were specifically looking for. I would definitely use her services in the future and highly recommend her. "

- Kelly

" We have worked with Andrew for 3 years. He is extremely helpful finding properties that we like. The process to purchase and sell real estate becomes stress free with Andrew’s experience. After 6 transactions we were very pleased to have Andrew help us again. After all the sales he is even better when it comes to follow up and helping us find vendors for any issues we need to address. He continues to follow up on all our real estate needs. "

- Mary & Gordon Chalmers

" Eric was great. Knowledgeable, experienced, helpful and professional. He took his time to understand what we were looking for and found us the perfect property to purchase. Eric was extremely helpful with the entire process, being hands on for us since we live in another state and we’re not able to be in Colorado. "

Truly an asset to your brand and genuinely awesome human beings. "

- Marcus B. Stewart

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

- Jennifer-Ann Drake

" Working with Kathleen Eck was a dream. She is very professional and knows what it takes to sell your home. She's VERY organized and is able to answer all of our questions in a timely manner. We would highly recommend Kathleen for any and all things real estate. Thank you for excellent service. "

" This sale was seamless because Don knew exactly what to do. I have nothing but praise for him. He sold our place in 2 days with a price we never dreamed we would get. "

- Ronald B. Johnson

" We contacted the Iverson’s thru a friend. They immediately responded with suggestions and questions seeking our interest and requirements. We researched properties they suggested and thru Zillow. We settled on a date we could meet in early September and gave them a list of properties we wanted to see. After seeing what we agreed on Billy drove us up to Cordillera and showed us around. The next morning we saw a property and fell in love with it. We made an offer that day and with some negotiating secured a contract within 48 hours, thanks to the Iversons. We are very grateful for their help and suggestions. And we love our new home! "

- Meridian Housing Company

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

" Tina Vardiman really took the time to walk me thru every step of the home sale process. She is extremely knowledgable, steady, and is very kind and patient all at the same time. She and her partner Patrice, spent a lot of time at the home preparing it for sale, tours, hosting open houses, and just doing periodic home checks. Both ladies are wonderful to work with and will represent you well. All their work is very much appreciated! "

- Mark Birner

" Our experience with our agent John Tyler has been wonderful from the start - from his introductory email, to our house tours, to our closing and beyond, John has been professional, informative, patient and kind beyond our expectations. Also, he has many helpful contacts and recommendations galore, all of which are helping us to settle into and enjoy our new home in the Vail Valley. Need we say more? "

" Heather McInerny was an absolute delight to work with and a rock star of a realtor! Not only did she help us find our dream house, but she helped negotiate a tremendous deal on price and inspection list items that we never would have thought of. Heather knows the Vail Valley and all the players in it, and left no stone unturned while helping us search for and find our home. Our only regret now that we've completed our purchase is that we won't be able to see Heather as much. Thank you for everything! "

" As one who is actively involved in the commercial and residential real estate markets here on the Front Range, I deal with a number of real estate brokers on a daily basis. As such, I feel well qualified to comment on the services of Led Gardner, who as our listing broker, recently completed the sale of our home in Vail. Led is a very professional and extremely savvy broker who truly represented our interests. He is an excellent communicator/negotiator. Led's expertise, accessibility, graciousness and willingness to do what was required played a major role in the successful and smooth completion of the sale of our home. $1,524,500 sale in Vail "

- Catherine Gorman

" I worked with Steve Cardinale and Lea Zugschwerdt on a previous transaction, and appreciated Steve's candor with regards to pricing, and Lea's timely (and not excessive) emails on the transaction process. I had the same experience on this second transaction. Very consistent, efficient teamwork by both of them. There are often unexpected hurdles that emerge before a transaction closes--in this case, there was a slight delay related to loan requirements, and then a malfunctioning stove light, noted on final walk through--and the team managed to address that, and all other issues, as we slid into home base.

" 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. "

- Roger Mendel

" You are fabulous!! Thank you SO much!! The money is in the bank! You and your team have been wonderful - the best agents ever. You've always gone the extra mile for me and I SO appreciate it.

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

" Doug has given to us a great experience while visiting all the properties. And he was also a great advisor. "

- Monica Gomez

" We worked with our agent Doug Landin for several years before finding the property we bought. Doug stuck with us as we viewed a number of different property types and considered and reconsidered our options. When we were ready to purchase Doug was invaluable in advising us on Eagle County real estate trends. In a competitive market we needed his guidance to secure a home. We enjoyed and valued working with him. We are very excited to have bought our Eagle Valley home and thankful to Doug for his excellent assistance. "

" Kelly was amazing and made simple the process of buying a home in Vail. "

- Gregory Rada

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

- George Schloegel

" 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 and Molly did a wonderful job helping us purchase our property. We will absolutely recommend them and work with them for future transactions. "

- Patricia & Lee Adams

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

- Christina, Breckenridge

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

- Rio Burgess

" 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! "

- Glen Payne

" We fully enjoyed working with John Tyler, who was energetic, professional, and trustworthy through the entire experience. John went way above and beyond what we expected a broker to do in many ways. Best broker experience we have ever had. "

" Heather Beckett has been wonderful in helping us find our Colorado home. We looked for a home on and off for over 10 years. She stuck with us even though often times we didn’t really know what we wanted. She was always encouraging, pleasant and professional. She knows the area extremely well. I would highly recommend her in assisting someone with a home search. "

" 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! "

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

- Richard A Smith

" Crissy was great. She was very professional, savvy about the market dynamics and was a good adviser throughout the process.

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

" Eric went above and beyond in helping my wife and me. He listened and made good recommendations. He achieved our goals in keeping the value of our property high. He worked with the property management team without ruffling any feathers. He even helped us move our things out of the storage because we could not come before the closing. We would highly recommend his services to anyone and would use him again in future real estate transactions. We have used numerous agents in the past but none have been better. We consider him a newfound friend that we trust. "

" Dear Led, We want to thank you for taking such good care of us during the project of selling our Beaver Creek home, from the first introductions through to the actual sale of the home. You were professional in all your dealings with us, and we so appreciated your attention to every detail (and there were a lot!), helping us to show our home at its best. Also, your helping us to see we should continue with this buyer when we were impatient. We are so impressed with your warmth and kindness throughout, and your identification with the home and with us. Your skillful handling of everything made the sale possible. Thank you for arranging for us to have such beautiful photography of our home. We will always treasure them. Thank you for being so much more than our Real Estate Man. We consider you a friend. We hope you and your family enjoy this book. $4,250,000 sale in Beaver Creek "

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. "

It's so very nice to feel like you are important to her as she always makes sure to get back to you whether it's a text or a phone call, she ALWAYS got back to us and it meant the world! Would highly recommend her to anyone :) thank you, Carolyn and Tom Kooiman "

" Steve, Lea, and the rest of their group were fantastic to work with in providing a variety of vacation home options without putting any pressure on us to close on anything. They kept the communication clear and frequent and provided us with excellent recommendations from the minute we walked into their office until the minute we closed on our vacation home. We are thrilled with our new home and the location specifically and can't thank Steve enough for his patience and guidance throughout the entire process. "

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

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

" Steve Cardinale and his assistant Lea Zugschwerdt were instrumental in assisting my family in finding a home in the Vail area that met all of our specific needs and desires. Steve consistently obtained answers to any and all questions we had and did so in a timely, thorough, and patient manner. Although it took over a year for us to locate the ideal property there was never any pressure from Steve who always had pleasant and easygoing demeanor despite the wide range of properties we explored. We look forward to working with Steve and Lea should we have future reality needs in the Vail area. "

" Having Jack Affleck as our realtor was like working with a trusted friend.

" My wife and I have had the pleasure of doing real estate transactions, first with Pam and then Pam and Brook for 20+ years. Both are extremely knowledgeable, professional and have a superior understanding of the market. Pam assisted us in purchasing a property in Cordillera and helped us work with a difficult builder. Some yeas later, Pam represented us in selling that home and buying a condo in Bachelor Gulch. We considered Pam and Brook friends then and we still do. "

" Ann has been our realtor for several transactions and is an extreme pleasure to work with. Ann excels at honesty, integrity, market knowledge, work ethic, communication, attention to detail, great personality, and genuine care for the best interests of all her clients, pretty much all the characteristics you want in a great realtor and person. We highly recommend Ann! Thank you Ann for all you have done for us! "

- Wade Cumming

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

- Andrew Ferraro

" Steve Cardinale and his team were wonderful to work with. Steve has long-term and in-depth knowledge of Beaver Creek and was instrumental in making sure we had all the information necessary to make the best decision for our vacation property. Steve's team was highly communicative throughout the process and made sure the contract and subsequent closing process occurred as planned. I highly recommend Steve and will not hesitate to partner on our next property. "

- Kelly R. Koehn

" In listing our home in the exclusive neighborhood of Strawberry Park in Beaver Creek Resort, we wanted the consummate real estate professional that understood the complexities of listing high end real estate. We actively interviewed a number of agents in the Vail Valley and chose Cathy. She lived up to our expectations and we were happy that we made the right decision to use Cathy as our listing agent. THIS LISTING WAS ONE OF THE HIGHEST PRICED HOMES TO EVER SELL IN BEAVER CREEK RESORT. "

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

" 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.

" Rachel has been tremendous to work with. I have limited time and patience for the real estate process but Rachel made the experience seamless and reletively stress free. She found the PERFECT 2nd home for us and handled all the stresses associated with purchasing a property from out of town. Further she has stayed in contact and has been a great resource to guide us into great adventures in the mountains as she's knows all the cool things to do in Vail. - I highly recomened her - Thanks Rachel!!!

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

- Cynthia Brandt Holden

" As a first time home buyer there was a lot to learn about the market and process overall. Eric was a fantastic partner, extremely patient and was never afraid to provide candid advice. Over the past year, Eric kept track of my preferences and was constantly on the lookout for an opportunity that fit my parameters. Eric deserves all the credit for finding my new home and I could not be more pleased with his work. "

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

" I knew Led before he became my real estate professional. He is an intelligent, moral and enthusiastic human being who brings the same great skills and expertise to real estate as he does to our runs down Prima Cornice! In terms of knowledge and honesty, Led is the best real estate professional that I have ever met. He made our real estate investment process in Vail very enjoyable. It is a pleasure to count Led as one of my good friends. I will definitely continue my real estate investments with him for many years. $880,000 purchase in Vail "

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

" Heather 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 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. "

" Janice was a true gem during the purchase of our first home. My wife and I were living in Australia and wanted to buy back home in the Vail Valley. 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! "

- John Logan

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

- Campbell Frey

" 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! "

" Stephanie was a pleasure to work with. She made the process as stress-free as possible and seamless. We felt very comfortable with her and her honesty and trustworthiness set her apart. I would absolutely recommend her and think anyone who works with her will understand why. "

- Colleen Tobin

" We interviewed a number of highly regarded brokers before engaging Scot & Erica Webster to handle our Singletree sale, believing their realistic goals and pricing to be perfectly in sync with our desire to sell our property quickly. They worked their network effectively and we had a commitment on our home within 4 days, at full asking price. Their pleasant manner, forthright approach, and obvious experience made the process effortless and enjoyable, so we immediately engaged them to help us find a new local property. Scot & Erica quickly learned our likes and dislikes—they “got us”—and made the process efficient and enjoyable, being highly responsive and attentive to our goals and budget. No wasted time, no wheel-spinning, thoughtful in their choices, very helpful in negotiations, well connected…and both super nice folks! Their knowledge of the market is exceptional and they are unusually honest about expectations and buying & selling strategies. On top of it all, we look forward to getting to know them better as friends. No hesitation in recommending them, and they’d be our first choice, our only choice, for future transactions in this area.

" 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 "

" 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! "

" Rachel is incredibly knowledgable very professional and overall great to work with. We had been working with another agent/company for almost a year with no success but once we connected with Rachel she had us in a great new home within a couple of months. She was so patient with us looking at homes in different areas and meeting with us at all times of the day. We absolutely recommend Rachel for anyone looking to buy or sell a home. "

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

- Walter Regal

" 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.

" We were incredibly fortunate to have been introduced to Scot & Erica Webster through mutual friends last fall as we were in the very initial stages of searching for a home in the Vail Valley area. Our family has moved several times over the years, and lived in many different areas around the country. We know that partnering with THE BEST professionals when searching for property in a new community is critical. Scot and Erica have deep roots and relationships in the community. They know the history of each project and development. Their expertise goes far beyond "listings", "comps", and "contracts". In all of our journeys across the country, Scot & Erica delivered by far THE BEST representation and guidance we have ever experienced when purchasing a home. We love our new home in Edwards! Though the property was not "for sale", Scot and Erica tirelessly worked through a very challenging transaction and made it happen!

Most importantly, I know that Diana always has my best interest in mind and her integrity over the past sixteen years is immeasurable.

" Our experience with George Lamb was beyond excellent! George is a seasoned professional and excellent communicator who made certain that all of our transactions were efficient, smooth, and respectful. He promptly answered all of our questions, some of which probably seemed quite ridiculous! (We hadn't purchased property for 20+ years.) We have nothing but high praise for George and his expertise. Thank you, George! "

They kept me completely informed and updated at all times from the listing presentation, listing appointment to after my home closed. They never missed a beat. They were extremely confident, knowledgeable and their attention to detail is extraordinary. I was a top producing real estate broker for 25 years and have had over 20 personal transactions. Tina and Patrice brought a professional calmness and energy from the listing presentation to the closing of my home, I have never witness before. "

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

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! "

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. "

" I have used Tina a number of times for listing properties I owned in both Vail and Singletree. On all occasions, she was professional and very detail-oriented, which was instrumental to the success of getting transactions closed. As an out-of-town seller, I appreciated how Tina made it so easy by personally managing punch lists and other details that would have otherwise been very difficult for me to do from afar. In listing a home recently, she saw to it that the property was presented in its very best light in regards to photography, website placement, and promotional materials. She took the time to help me under-stand the changing nature of our local market through her firsthand knowledge of relevant properties either for sale and/or recently sold in my neighborhood, and presented clear and comprehensive market data for my benefit. Tina met the challenges inherent in a competitive environment head-on, and got my property sold when very few others were selling. "

- Elizabeth Cole, Vail and Singletree

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

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

He is a consummate professional who is deeply committed to his clients and makes the process easy. I give Steve my highest recommendation and look forward to many more years of friendship! "

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 "

" 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. "

- John E. Pinkham

" George Streeter impressed us from the very beginning of our dealings with him with the anticipation of selling our home. He did a fantastic job in every way; from sitting down with us to discuss the current state of the real estate market, to hosting Open Houses, to assisting with opening and closing for showings, to marketing our property to not only Slifer realtors but numerous realtors in the Vail Valley, and so much more. George's professional approach in presenting our home was instrumental in our home sale success - no doubt. A few weeks after we closed and had moved out, we had a moment to finally catch our breath. I wrote George a text message and I feel this note shows my/our true feelings for how well he did as our realtor: George, We are finally settling down to most relaxed moment of our day. We just read your kind card - WOW! What a beautiful sentiment. Your card and gift truly shows again what a dedicated realtor you are and were for us during our home sale process. You have nothing but good things ahead and bigger things coming your way. Keep working as hard as you do and continue your prospecting. You will be busier than ever! You earned every penny of your commission George, plus some and every word of recommendation we can offer. We could not have asked for a more committed and honest realtor to work with. Please pass along any clients to us for a referral. When we checked your referrals before moving forward with you as our realtor, we heard nothing but terrific comments. And we too will gladly share our experience. You are not only a wonderful family man, but an honest and hard-working real estate agent. Thank you sincerely! "

" Good morning Amy, I feel so proud when I look at the photo of our "mountain home" and I can't wait to get up there! Thank you for taking so much time to help us find the perfect home. Your insight and thoughts on finding the right location first and then the right home were so valuable. I never thought I would feel 100 % that we found the right location with all the choices and considerations of lifestyle, it seemed more difficult than locating our home in Denver! Gary and I are completely happy and feel fortunate that we walked into your office on that random day and you were there to help us, without question you are one of the best, if not THE BEST realtor in Beaver Creek. We were the lucky recipients of all your knowledge and expertise, exactly the kind of realtor we would hope to find, and now we have the home of our dreams in the mountains. THANK YOU! "

" 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 "

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

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

" Nicky was amazing! We had a trip planned out of the country, but we happened to find our dream home just before we were due to leave. 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. Nicky helped facilitate everything while we were away, and made it all as stress free as possible. I feel she really looked after us by ensuring our contract was rock solid. We would definitely recommend Nicky to friends looking for an honest, experienced, and knowledgeable broker. "

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

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

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.

" We are extremely pleased with the job Pam, Brooke and Aaron delivered related to the sale of our home. They provided candid feedback on the market and the potential buyer's likes and dislikes regarding our home. They are responsive, diligent, insightful and courteous. We moved six weeks prior to our "closing" and they were invaluable in helping find and manage the vendors to address the various tasks required. They were fabulous and we cannot thank them enough. "

" 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! "

- EagleVail Sellers

" As a buyer, I want three things from my agent: 1. Show me properties in which I will have a real interest---don't waste my time with others 2. Help me evaluate the property and determine a fair and reasonable price 3. Then, just make life easy---help me take care of things like inspections, utilities, closing. Nobody is better than Cathy with this list! We bought our first house in Beaver Creek in one day---and only looked at two. When we told Cathy we were thinking of a larger house, she took us to see what she described as the perfect house for you---we bought it the next day. "

" I've known Steve Cardinale for over 15 years. He showed us the first condo we considered purchasing in Beaver Creek. In 2007 Steve sold us the house that's just sold on Stag Gulch. He also was our realtor when we purchased a condo at the Westin Riverfront, in Avon. Throughout every transaction with Steve, he has made the process move along smoothly and quickly. In the recent sale of Stag Gulch, Steve's guidance and patient perseverance moved this sell to completion. In my experience of working with many realtors around the US, Steve is the most committed, honest, and professional realtor I've worked worked with. If you're looking for a professional, no drama, no high pressure, realtor with your best interest in mind, I highly recommend Steve Cardinale. I say the same for Steve's assistant, Lea Zugschwerdt.

He always takes time to greet and spend time with you, asks about your family And overall makes you feel welcomed. Steve is a great asset to SSF and the Vail area, I have recommended many people to consider owning a time share in Vail and recommending Steve to help them.

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

- Steven M Hacker, MD

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

" 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. "

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

- Barbara Gibson

" "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!" "

" Dana Correia is one of the best I have ever worked with. He has a great command of the market and was able to guide us through the various properties we looked at. His knowledge of the various buildings was impressive. Dana also did a great job on the comparisons to help us decide what we needed to offer and what our limit would be. Dana also shared his network with us to help with decorating, maintenance, and property management support. I would highly recommend Dana for your real estate needs. "

I was introduced to Eric by a satisfied client and look forward to making a referral. "

" 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. "

" Heather went above and beyond in handling two residential purchases for me. She had a good grasp of the market which helped in determining a reasonable price. and which units to tour. We didn't waste time in seeing every single unit for sale but honed in on the choices that met my needs. Heather was always cheerful and happy which made the experience much more fun. She didn't exaggerate or attempt to cut corners as some Realtors tend to do. Very diligent in watching for deadlines.

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

" 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 "

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

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! "

" 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. "

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

- Kevin & Ann Brolley

" 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! "

" 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. "

We would highly recommend using Jack Affleck for selling or purchasing a home or homesite. Thank you Jack! "

" 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! "

She is awesome!! "

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

" When it was time to sell my townhouse in Edwards, I was living in Florida and listed with Didi...she took over and handled every detail right up to the closing. I've been in real estate as a commercial broker for over 40 years; Didi Doolittle is one of the most professional and effective brokers that I've ever worked with. I highly recommend that YOU call Didi before making your sell or buy decision...I know that you'll be glad you did! "

" 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. "

" It was very beneficial from a buyer’s standpoint to work with George when we had to find a new home in a difficult market. He is a longtime local, has a lot of professional and personal connections he would use to help us out, and was in the “know” with possible properties. He would also respond immediately to any questions and if he didn’t know the answer, he would find out. I don’t think we would have found a home we are so happy with without him. "

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

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

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

" We really appreciate Doug Landin's professionalism! It was easy to work with him on the initial purchase and recent sale of our Eagle Ranch lot. Doug was the original listing agent on our lot and very knowledgeable of the Eagle Ranch real estate market. He immediately prepared the lot for sale with pricing, marking property lines, website exposure, emails, signage, a variety of photographs continually updated, and postcard mailing. Doug also called us on a regular basis to give us an update on the market. He was always upbeat and never pressured us to reduce our list price. After the offers arrived, Doug professionally counseled us on the pros and cons of each offer. He assisted us with the final decision and finished the process with ease. My advice is list or buy with Doug Landin! "

" 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 "

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

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

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

" 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. "

" Dana arranged for a sale of our existing condo to coincide with the purchase of another one in a highly desirable area with limited inventory. A charge that we thought was nearly impossible.

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

" Molly does a superb job both from a buyer and seller's side! We've worked with Molly through 3 home purchases and 2 home sales. Molly provides a no-nonsense approach, has years of knowledge about the Vail Valley, and keen negotiation skills. She is always there to answer any questions and provides an enormous amount of support throughout the entire process to make any sale as simple as possible. Not only has she been an expert salesperson; she has become a friend as well. We would recommend Molly to anyone!! "

" 16 years ago, Betsy sold us our condo in Horizon Pass Lodge. Since that time our family has grown and Betsy has patiently showed us, over the years, 30 + new listings, but we always came back to HP. We recently bought a new unit in HP and sold our old one within a week with the help of Betsy and her colleagues at SSF. "

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

I checked my email before retiring one night in Tokyo and Janice's email popped up with the perfect property. By the time I woke up 8 hours later Janice had given my wife, who was in Vail, a tour of the property and we had an offer in to the listing broker! Janice was the backbone of the whole deal and made it all happen using her extensive network of contacts and her reputation as a lady who gets the job done "

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! "

- Bob and Marcella

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

" 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 "

" 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 "

" 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. "

- Karen Lejeal

" 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

" Ellie was wonderful! She took time to explain everything all the way through the process, from the sell to the closing. I have never had any realtor take so much time with a client as she did with me. She made everything became personal and I knew she really cared. Our communication was by phone, email, and texts, when I was finally able to meet her in person, I felt like I had known her forever. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy property....I’ll say it again, she was wonderful! "

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

I would highly recommend her if you are thinking of selling or buying a property. "

At the end of the day I feel like everyone won, and I could not be happier with my new home. "

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! "

I HAVE NOT BEEN DISAPPOINTED AS THE PROPERTY SOLD IN RECORD TIME. MY WIFE AND I CANNOT OVER EMPHASISE THE HELP THAT WE WERE GIVEN IN GETTING THE HOUSE FIRSTLY IN THE CONDITION TO SHOW, BUT SECONDLY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, TO MOVE OUT. IT IS INCREDIBLE HOW MUCH ONE ACCUMULATES OVER 24YEARS. WITHOUT THE MAJOR ASSISTANCE OF DIANA WE WOULD NOT HAVE GOT THROUGH IT. "

" I would highly recommend Jack Affleck! He is professional and attentive and goes above and beyond for his clients. He crafted a masterful marketing plan to sell our home during a pandemic and closed the deal! He is incredibly hard working and has a warm personality. He will get the job done! "

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

In addition, we found Dana to be very professional and keen to get us a sale as soon as possible, I would definitely recommend Dana and we will be using Dana for our next purchase, thank you! "

" Kirk with Kelly’s assistance provided prompt attention to our needs. The first lot we selected and intended to place an offer was already, unfortunately, under contract. After quickly (in one morning) locating another acceptable lot for us, Kirk and team efficiently assisted us with the successful purchase of the property. We’re very pleased with the process and provided services. "

" 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. "

" Integrity, market knowledge, legal skills, professionalism, patience; there aren't enough descriptors to credit Kathleen Eck. Her assistance in buying and selling property for me over the past ten years is simply astounding. I have adopted her as a friend and my realtor-for-life. Always upbeat and so tuned in to her clients needs and wishes, she is simply one of the finest human beings I have had the good fortune to know. "
