Veronica Carabajal Shaughnessy
Broker Associate
Veronica Shaughnessy is a seasoned Broker Associate and Realtor® with Slifer Smith & Frampton, serving clients throughout the Vail Valley, Colorado.
Licensed in real estate since 2002, Veronica began her career in Atlanta and now brings more than two decades of experience to buyers and sellers in the Vail Valley.
If you’re considering buying in Vail, Colorado, whether it’s a second home, an investment property, or a future full-time move, Veronica understands exactly where you are in the process, because she’s lived it herself.
After years of visiting the valley and eventually making the move from Atlanta with her husband, she knows what it feels like to go from “we love it here” to “we’re actually doing this.”
Today, she works with clients who are:
- Buying a second home to create experiences with family and friends
- Looking for a smart long-term investment in a market with strong demand
- Exploring a future relocation to the mountains
- Wanting a lifestyle that feels more connected, active, and outdoors
She understands the real questions behind the search:
Where should we buy?
Should we be in Vail or down valley?
Will this hold value long term?
Can we rent it, and should we?
How often will we actually use it?
Veronica specializes in helping clients answer those questions with clarity and confidence, not pressure.
Her experience spans resale, new construction, investment properties, and land, with a deep understanding of how each town in the Vail Valley offers a different balance of lifestyle, access, and long-term value. She is known for helping clients make smart, strategic decisions while still honoring the emotional side of why they’re drawn to this place.
With a background in luxury real estate and consistent top performance throughout her career, she has earned recognition including Life Member status with the Atlanta REALTORS® Multi-Million Dollar Sales Club and certification as a Luxury Home Marketing Specialist.
Born in Argentina and fluent in Spanish, Veronica brings a thoughtful, relationship-driven approach to every client interaction.
Outside of real estate, you’ll find her living the lifestyle she helps her clients step into, skiing, hiking, staying active, and spending time with her husband Dan and their three adult kids.
