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

" 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. "

I have bought and sold real estate in many parts of the country including the Vail Valley, and I have seldom if ever found a real estate professional the equal of Cathy.

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. "

" 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. "

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.

" 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. "

She has just sold our Townhouse in Vail in around two weeks during the Covid-19 pandemic for a good price. We live in the Bahamas and she has handled all the problems of having absent client owners.

We would highly recommend Tina, Patrice and Will for anyone selling their home. "

" 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.

- Ted Jadwin and Ellen Morris

" The team of Steve Cardinale and Lea Zugschwerdt were very helpful and accommodating in the the search for properties that met our requirements. They adjusted their schedules on short notice to ensure we had adequate time to review each listing and quickly followed up. The entire purchasing process was very efficient and they were responsive to any questions. I will be using them in the future as well. "

- David S. Content

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

- Alisa DeMartino

" The comprehensive and continuous experience was amazing. I have worked with other real estate companies on the other ends of my most recent moves and my broker, Stephanie, sets a high bar that no one has been able to meet. I am completely confident that nothing is missed or overlooked when working with Stephanie. I will share her contact with anyone I can and expect that kind of service whereve and whenver I need this service. "

- Michele Eggers

" Dana Correia and his assistant Jay Peterson were always helpful and responsive to all questions and requests made during the sale of Creekside and during the sale of our two lots in Singletree. The lots in Singletree were quite a challenge due to their topography. Dana had to do a lot of leg work to accomplish the sale of these properties because of their challenges. We would definitely use him again to purchase or sell future properties.. "

- Robert Blackard

" I wanted to take a moment to let you know how much I appreciate the diligence of one of your brokers, Didi Doolittle. Didi was instrumental in getting my home sold in Eagle Ranch in a very timely manner recently. She handled everything with professionalism. I'm so lucky to have been able to work with Didi Doolittle. Slifer, Smith and Frampton is so fortunate to have such amazing women representing, what I believe, is the #1 real estate company in the Vail Valley. "

- Kathleen Walinsky, Seller

- Shari Leventhal

" 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. "

- Beverly and Lynn Woolley

" 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. "

- Pam and Hank Levine

" Our broker, Tony O'Brien, goes over and above to help make transactions happen. I would definitely recommend him. "

- Richard Nichols

" Kim Bradley is a dedicated, ethical and passionate broker. Despite some trials with selling our property due to conditions outside of our control, Kim worked diligently to make sure we were always aware of our options and that we were being well taken care of. The Vail Valley is a small community of locals and in order to be successful, one mast have high integrity and a good network. Kim has both of these which helps her excel at what she does. Thanks! Dustin & Heather Kelley "

- Dustin Kelley

" Billy, congratulations on the new assignment of Arrowhead’s Branch Broker. 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. Your diligence, patience and attention to all matters with regards to my purchase has been nothing but impressive. Slifer, Smith & Frampton is fortunate to have you. "

- Bret Dixon

" Ed Levy is quite simply the BEST!!! "

- Mary Ellen Rowan

" Aaron was knowledgeable, patient, and extremely responsive. We really enjoyed working with him! I would highly recommend Aaron to any family or friends looking for real estate in Vail Valley. "

- Josh Prier

" 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! "

- Judy Rudges

" Lissa - Thanks for your efforts in getting my unit in the Westin to the closing last week. I appreciated your candor and your experience in the current Vail Valley real estate market during the listing process. I feel confident this lead to pricing the property correctly (and getting it sold). "

- Chuck

" Chris is definitely the best! He helped find the perfect ski condo for our family in the heart of Vail Village. He also assisted our friends in discovering their dream house in Beaver Creek. Thoroughly knowledgeable of the real estate market throughout the Vail Valley, Chris takes a personal interest in being of assistance long after the deal is over - a big plus to those of us residing throusands of miles away. "

- Larry & Suzanee Weiss

" We appreciated having a broker team. Communication and attention to our property was excellent. "

- Richard Davidson

" Doug was amazing since the beggining. Helped me every step of the way and got me a beautiful home. I can’t recommend him enough! Thank you "

- Juncal Gomez Diaz

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

- Gregory White

" 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

" Pleased that due to the professional and sharp attention of our broker, Lissa, we were able to close within 27 days! Unheard of, generally - especially with all that is involved. She also assisted us by helping to coordinate our exit from the rental house we were in while searching for a home. Clever, persistent, representative of our interests all the way through the closing, Lissa is awesome! "

- Anonymous

" We come from out of state and we had to look for and buy our house mostly “long distance“. We knew it was not going to be easy, but with Kim and TJ’s guidance, we found our beautiful home with all the “musts” we were looking for. Kim and TJ were there for us and helped us during the whole process. Great team! "

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

- Lindsay Webbe

" Dixie sold my property within weeks of getting the listing. She impressed me with her knowledge, professionalism, communication, and thorough attention to detail. I did not think that a realtor's advice, council and and hard work on behalf of a client could be such an important difference in listing and selling a property. I was wrong. I would highly recommend her if you are thinking of selling or buying a property. "

- Cappy Shopneck

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

- Bailey, Avon Seller

" Susan and Michael are very knowledgeable in real estate. From start to finish, they were top notch! They were prompt in answering questions and I feel they helped us get top dollar for our home. I would highly recommend them for all your real estate needs. It was a pleasure to work with them! "

- Steele Family Trust

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

- Edward C. Winthrop Rev. Trust

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

- Scott Skelton

" Eric was very professional, helpful, and available. We could not have asked for better support during the buying process "

- Eve Trumpower

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

- David Kraushaar

" Debbie was the BEST! Moving to Vail from Denver was a big leap for me, and Debbie made the transition much easier. She quickly understood what I was looking for, and kept me up to date with properties as they became available. The home buying process with Debbie and Slifer was professional, friendly and fun! I am grateful I met Debbie, and look forward to working with her in the future. "

- Barbara Nelson

" The vacant lot that we owned had a number of challenges, but Doug with his relationship with architects and builders was able to allow potential buyers to overcome the challenges of the lot. Although it took a while we were able to find the right buyer. This is the second piece of real estate that Doug has sold for us, and we will definitely use him again. "

- William Prescott

" Kim Bradley is awesome !!! "

- Derek Place

" 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

" 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! "

- Seller

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

- Johannes Pruim

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

" This was our third purchase with Andrew and he has been an invaluable resource for us on all these occasions. His knowledge, professionalism, willingness to accommodate our complicated schedule, follow up and overall communication have always been outstanding. Another thing that stood out for us was his willingness and commitment to help with various issues prior and after the close, which was very helpful because of our remoteness. We strongly recommend Andrew! "

- Laurentui Vlad

" 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. "

- Ronald Jones

" 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. "

- Matt Egan

" 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.

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

- Jake Kordich

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

" We recently purchased our first home and could not have asked for a better experience! Julie really helped us find exactly what we were looking for and walked us through every step of the process with ease. She was incredibly responsive, even showing us a place at our request on Easter Sunday with no advance notice. I can't say enough great things about Julie! "

- Anna D.

" Paul and Lindsey were truly a dynamite DREAM team! They both are incredibly warm, kind, responsive and helpful. We cannot overstate how wonderful it was to have their support in purchasing our first home. They are absolutely the people you want in your corner and have your best interests at heart. Paul has tons of building experience and knowledge of the valley; Lindsey is extremely organized and professional. "

- Holly & David

" Since we live out of state and made a quick weekend trip to CO, we were crunched for time to see all the properties on our list. Heather pumped us full of knowledge and accommodated all of our requests in such a small window! She provided us with exactly what we needed to make an offer on a beautiful piece of property and we are happy to now be land owners in CO! We can’t thank her enough for the exceptional service she provided us. "

- Jason McGuire

" Our work with your firm was a marvelous experience because of your agent; Dixie Applegate. Dixie made the entire process go seamlessly. She communicated in a responsive and caring manner. We could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you for the professionalism of your entire team! "

" We have both bought and sold a home with Julie. In both cases, Julie has gone above and beyond to make the process easy and efficient. She was always available to answer questions and make sure we knew exactly what was going on every step of the way. Julie's hard work paid off when our recent home was under contract within 2 days of listing. We would recommend Julie to anyone looking to buy or sell a home and cannot thank her enough for her help!! "

- Eric S.

" 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. "

" Big D: Just wanted to Says Thanks from Laura and Me for 35 years of Being My SSF Rep. From the First Lot at Deer and Deer through 6 Homes in BC and Arrowhead, U ALWAYS Found The Right Property at THE Right Price, and then Brought Us a Buyer when We Desired a New Property.

" 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 "

- Beaver Creek

" Amazing team! They helped us purchase our dream home. The Iverson team is absolutely wonderful to work with and managed the process so that is was streamlined every step of the way. It’s like having a friend on the “inside” that is working for you. They really care about their clients as well as the community and neighborhood they live in and work in! "

- Scott Bradley Proper

" 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. "

- Jonathan Lewis

" 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. "

- Mike S

" 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. "

- Ashley Petz

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

- Dustin and Stephanie Hansen

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

- Bill Rybak, Former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Van Kampen Investments, Inc.

" Ann was our agent for a condo we purchased. Ann took the time to understand our needs and did not pressure us through the process. Ann thought outside the box and found a property that meet all our needs and wants. When issues in the closing process appeared, she kept a cool head and provided expert advice to navigate past the issues. She knows the area and understands the market. We truly appreciate the due diligence and professionalism Ann provided us. "

- Justin Dorough

" Brooke Horan-Kates is one of the finest brokers I have ever worked with. She checks all the boxes in terms of market knowledge and finely tuned instincts to get the job done. She delivered two offers for my condo in the first week of marketing and achieved a price at the very top of the expected range. From there her attention to detail and her friendly and courteous nature made her both highly effective and fun to work with. "

- John Box

" I was beyond stressed when I had to sell my house in less than a month and the SSF Team pulled it off within the first few days of it being listed. Outstanding! "

- Dominik Scrivner

" 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. "

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

- Millie Aldrich

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

- Riverfront Holdings LLC

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

- Greg Finch, Senior Vice President, Dundee Realty USA

" Debbie was fabulous! We appreciate her expertise of the Vail/ Beaver Creek valleys and attention to detail. Debbie was very responsive to our requests to see properties. On more than one occasion, Debbie accommodated our request to view properties within 24 hrs notice, which was greatly appreciated! "

" Don Zerangue changed my life. In August 2014, Don approached me to go see a house in Red Sky Ranch, Wolcott, Co. We looked, but the house was too big and too expensive for us. Don then introduced me to the builder of the house we had just seen. Within 3 hours, the architect and builder had a quote and rough plans for me to build a house in Red Sky Ranch. Don stepped in and sold my current duplex in Edwards, Co. within 60 days. The sale was difficult in that the buyer was hard to deal with. Don never gave up and worked through every issue. This was at a time when real estate sales in the Vail area were slow. I never would have sold or built but for Don Zerangue. We love our new house and I thank Don for making it happen. "

- Red Sky Ranch Homeowner

" We loved working with Janice!!! We bought an amazing place in Beaver Creek and Janice kept the entire process rolling. We were always in the loop as to what was going on. "

- Susan Kleiboeker

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

- Jennifer B Pletcher

" Carling and Jay are the best! They are extremely friendly, responsive, and organized. We are grateful for all of their time and attentiveness in making the process easy and exciting as first-time homebuyers. Thank you! "

" Chris Ball is an excellent Realtor! He has helped us buy and sell 4 properties. In our most recent transaction, Chris negotiated a contract to sell our house just 12 days after listing it!! Then he found us a better-than-we-could-have-hoped-for-house that we now call our home. Chris is a true professional. He is honest and thorough and very easy to work with. He knows the area and he does his job well. I highly recommend Chris! "

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

" Steve's extensive knowledge of the Real Estate market in the Vail Valley is phenomenal and lends an element of extreme confidence in making both buying and selling decisions. In addition his friendliness and straight forward honesty makes working with him great. Steve has been a joy to work with over the past 20+ years and we will always count him as one of our Beaver Creek Friends. "

- Randy L. DouBrava

" We had a great experience with Kelly us our realtor. we recently purchased a property in Vail and she was always a step ahead, she knows the area very well (in fact she grew up in Vail), was very patient with us and made the process of closing very simple. Kelly is a very friendly person and knows all the people around, I highly recommend her as a realtor and still visit her when we are in Vail. No doubt I will call her again in the future if we decide to buy or sell properties in the Vail area. "

- Cesar and Rocio

" 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. "

" Brooke is a highly ethical, competent and professional broker. She handled every aspect of the transaction and added great value. "

- 510 Brush Creek LLC

" We were very lucky that Katherine was there when we walked into the Avon office. After some discussion of our needs and wants she honed in on two properties for us to look at. The second was the charm and we couldn’t be happier. Katherine guided us through the competitive market and our offer was accepted. She was there for us throughout the entire closing process. Katherine was quick to provide answers to all our questions. She stopped by after the closing to help us get settled in. We highly recommend Katherine King. "

- Lee & Barbara Levine

" Ed has been terrific to work with not only because of his friendliness and willingness to answer so many questions but also due to his fantastic knowledge of the market in which he has lived for so many years.

For everything, we could not be more grateful. "

- Edward E. Haverlah

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

- David & Kim

I have and will continue to recommend Kelly to anyone looking for a real estate agent they can trust. "

- Robbie and Amanda Strommen

" Jack was not just the best real estate agent I could have crossed paths with but he became a close friend who knew what I was looking for. He did not stop until he found the best place for me. There are no words to describe how happy I felt when I closed on my condo and I feel very lucky to have Jack there for me since day one. Jack is the best choice in the valley either for selling or buying. He helped me in both situations and I have no regrets but appreciation for all he did to make everything easy and smooth. He definitely can make your house dream come true! Thanks, Jack. "

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 "

" 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 "

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

" 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. "

" When we listed our home with Happy I was a real estate broker and member of the Vail Board for decades. Based on the knowledge we had, we chose Happy with absolutely no concerns about her integrity, qualifications, or market knowledge. And yes, she sold our home as expected. "

- Mike Bennett

" Jay was amazing - very helpful and quick to respond on everything. He knows the area very well and can assist you in finding your perfect home.

I’d highly recommend Steve to guide any buyer through the home buying experience. Thanks again Steve! "

- Andrew Thomas Dunleavy

" 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! "

" 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. "

- Very Happy Cordillera Valley Club owners

" Jack was very helpful as I began my search of the area, making time which worked around my schedule to see what we needed to see so I'd have a good perspective of possibilities.

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.

" 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!

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

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

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

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

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! "

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

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

" 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. "

We then got one email about an available property that we felt could be the right one and sure enough we worked it out. I never thought investing $6M could feel so good. "

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

- Andrew P. Daly

" 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. "

" 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. "

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

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

She is infinitely patient, gently guiding her clients to the best decision. I would recommend working with her--and her partner Brooke--to anyone looking for a home in the Vail valley. "

- Chris & Emily

" 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! "

As a lawyer, business executive and long time local in the valley she offers unique advantages to both sides. A great customer experience! "

- Mark Edward Robinson

"

- Taylor Smith Murray

" 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! "

- Donna F.

" Well, it could not have happened without you. Barbara and I are forever grateful for your dedication and diligence in concluding the sale of our property. We know it was a challenge and could not be more pleased with the outcome. We sincerely appreciate all you did to make this happen. "

" I am delighted to provide this testimonial on behalf of Donna Caynoski. She is smart, understands the market well and as such was realistic in the pricing recommendations for my home. She guided me through the pricing strategy, location benefits and weaknesses and positioned the house for a successful transaction. Donna is a lovely woman who always made herself available which was key to me as an out of state seller. I would strongly recommend Donna as she really understands her business, the local real estate market and successfully balances her knowledge while reflecting her clients interests. "

- Dianne Ater

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

- Mary & Gordon Chalmers

" Ellie Manzi does an excellent job. We bought our condo using Ellie 8 years ago. When we decided to sell it this summer, we didn't think twice about who we should list with, we called Ellie--easy decision!!! "

In addition to being very pleasant and knowledgeable, he was always very well prepared, answered all our questions and provided all requested information on a timely basis. We would definitely recommend Jack to our friends and if we are in the market in the Vail area again we will certainly use his services. "

- Wayne and Debbie Gray

" It was important that the Company and the Broker had many listings. Important that the reputation of Happy Power was excellent Important that the Company offers the Broker so many tools We were never disappointed. Everyone worked hard and always seemed concerned about meeting our needs. I would highly recommend the Company and Broker, Happy Power and her Assistant, Emily. "

- Jeanne Schuldener

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

" "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!" "

We had a long time frame for our purchase and Steve took the time to get to know us and understand our needs. He was patient and extremely knowledgeable throughout the entire process and had our best interests in mind every step of the way. With Steve's guidance and support, we were able to find and purchase our ideal place - and he went above and beyond to make sure the process was seamless. We highly recommend Steve Cardinale and his staff for any real estate needs and look forward to working with him in the future. "

- Bruce G.

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

" 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! "

- Tom & Jill Trotter

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

- Max R. Kay

" Jack Affleck was a pleasure to work with and looked out for our interests though every step of the selling process. From our first discussion, it was clear Jack was genuinely excited to have the opportunity to list our property. He is extremely knowledgeable about the Vail Valley and was very confident he could help us achieve our goal. Through his creative marketing vision and execution, he flawlessly conveyed the unique beauty of our property. Any ideas we had, or issues we uncovered, Jack was the first to raise his hand to take on the task. If the solution fell outside of his immediate skill set, he always had the right person for the job. He spent tireless hours helping us prepare for listing and quickly found the right buyer. Jack was always available, knowledgeable and supportive from listing through closing. "

- Edmund Lennig

" 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! "

I can honestly say that Led is heads and shoulders above any real estate agent we have ever worked with, and we have bought and sold over a dozen homes over the years. Thank you Led! "

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! "

" We have been here skiing for over 25 years with our children and finally decided. to buy a 2 bedroom property. We knew exactly what we wanted , saw it online and called Andrew Cryer. We flew in that weekend, Andrew picked us up at the airport and after 10 minutes looking at the condo we wrote an offer. Ten months later we needed more space and Andrew found a lovely 3 bedroom townhouse for us. We've been here since January and are building on a Lot that Andrew has found for us. He has gone out of his way to help in more ways than I can begin to tell you . He found garage door openers, a proper fireplace remote, and even set up our ring door bell. He's become a friend more than an agent. Just a wonderful person and family man. We recommend him highly ! "

" 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. "

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

We trust Paul implicitly and would highly recommend him without any reservation or hesitation!! "

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

- James Hubbard

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

- Rick

" 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. "

" 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

" Jack was an excellent broker and I'd definitely recommend him to anybody looking to purchase a home in Vail, Avon, or Eagle County. He is always available to answer any questions, including weekends. He was willing to take the time to explain things to me in depth. He was not just trying to sell me a property, but wanted to ensure that the property I was looking at was right for me and at the right price. Truly one of the best brokers out there, cannot recommend enough. "

" My husband and I recently purchased a beautiful new construction unit at the Westin Riverfront. It was a complicated transaction because it included a trade of our older Westin unit and the purchase of our new unit. Lissa Tyler handled all the paperwork and the valuation of the trade property. In addition, we did a partial remodel of the new unit and Lissa handled all the complexities of the new unit remodel and insured that both the developer and us were treated in a professional and fair manner. A HUGE thank you to Lissa! "

He continues to follow up on all our real estate needs. "

" 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 "

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

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

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

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

- Patricia L. Pacey

" Molly was my savior! I had been stumbling through the home buying process and Molly assisted in a smooth navigation of the entire process. Molly is the consummate professional! I will always entrust my real estate needs to Molly as she has the best intent for her clients and works extremely hard to ensure all parties are excited with the final outcome. Buying a home is a daunting task and I was thrilled to have Molly representing my best interests in this process! She's amazing! "

" 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. "

- Gregory Rada

" 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.

" 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 "

Even on our 1 year anniversary of owning our perfect home, she called to make sure we were still loving our home. "

- Steve and Julie Miller, Buyer

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

" I am a repeat client of Mr. Steve Cardinali. He and his assistant Lea are very professional and would recommend them. "

- Elizabeth Rienick

" 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.

She is very knowledgeable on the market - trends and value from both a buyer and seller perspective. She acts promptly and realistically to help clients gather information and quickly complete fair, quality transactions. Dixi is particularly sensitive to both investment and lifestyle ussues and the value of longer term business relationships with clients. "

- Jolin Oltman

" 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. "

" 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. "

- David Nichol

" Carling was so responsive and invested in finding the home that was right for me. Being a first-time home buyer, myself, she didn't just go through the process and have me sign on the line. She walked me through everything to make sure I had a full understanding of the home-buying process, which was greatly appreciated. She stuck to my price range, talked price down where needed and up where needed and used her relationships within the community to stay one step ahead of other buyers. We were one of the first to make an offer on the home I know own. Great experience. Thanks for all your help, Carling! "

- Liz Gladitsch

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

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

- Christopher PItts

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

- Bob and Marcia Bristow

" I have known Steve for the past 20 years or so and have purchased two timeshares from him at the St. James, he has always been professional and knowledgeable. He always takes time to greet and spend time with you, asks about your family And overall makes you feel welcomed. Steve is a great asset to SSF and the Vail area, I have recommended many people to consider owning a time share in Vail and recommending Steve to help them. Steve just recently helped us sell one of our units at the St. James and the sale went seamlessly and his assistant Lea was always in touch with me keeping me up-to-date, Steve and his team did a great job.

" 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 have used Nancy Lassetter six different times. Whether we were buying or selling, Nancy Lassetter is a fantastic real estate agent. She knows the market and works hard to give you personal, knowledgeable and expert information that you need to make a wise decision. I would not hesitate to use or recommend her to any one looking to buy or sell a home in Bachelor Gulch, Beaver Creek or Arrowhead. "

- Henry A Hutton

" Doug Landin was terrific! He was focused on getting us the perfect ski house! Kept us dialed in on what was important and helped us see the deal through and our family loves it and can't thank him enough. I would want Doug on my team on either side of the transaction we were on. We appreciate the dedication and care that was exhibited in our transaction. We would be remiss if we also didn't thank Lizzie Lenox for her help in this process as well. Please give both Doug and Lizzie our thanks again and let them know how much we appreciated all they did to help us fulfil a life long dream! Thanks, Jeff & Mindy Parker "

" If you are looking for a truly professional realtor, who really enjoys his work, in Beaver Creek I would highly recommend Steve Cardinale. 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. Our entire process could not have been more professional, more engaging, and more pleasant of an experience. I would highly recommend Steve and his assistant Lea as your buying or selling realty professional. "

- Blake & Laura Linders

" My broker was very knowledgeable, and thorough from start to finish. We closed on the property in less than a month, and i had it rented the next day. I can't say enough about Carling Bennett and would highly recommend her and Slifer Smith and Frampton. "

- Richard Delaney

" My husband I were first-time home buyers and worked with Jay to purchase our condo in Avon. Not only did he make it easy for us, he's also super fun to work with. We even had a few questions a few months after we closed and he did not hesitate to help then. We are very grateful for his guidance and expertise and highly recommend his services. "

" 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! "

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

" Led Gardner acted as our Realtor for the purchase of a house in Vail in February 2010. Led was recommended to us because of his experience with the Vail property market. We were purchasing the house partially as an investment, so getting a good deal was very important. Led really understood our personal wants and investment needs, and showed us a number of houses that fitted all of our requirements. He quickly got to know what both me and my wife liked and disliked, and was very good at finding appropriate properties. Once we found the right house, Led negotiated a very good discount with the seller, without which the property would have fallen outside of our price range. He then worked with a number of inspectors who found some minor issues, and thereafter negotiated an escrow fund to pay for repairs post-close. Even well after the sale had closed, Led continued to assist us with organizing the repair work. He also recommended builders for some remodeling work that we will be undertaking soon. Led has helped us make Vail a home, even taking the time to ski with me on several occasions last season. His insight into the Vail market was, and continues to be, invaluable and I have no hesitation in recommending him. $900,000 purchase and $2,425,000 sale following renovation "

" We were very happy to work with Steve Cardinale and his assistant Lea Zugschwerdt on our recent condo purchase in East Vail. Steve has been working in the Vail Valley real estate business for many years, and his skills were apparent. He couldn't have been more knowledgeable about the area and market, or generous with his time to help us find, purchase and close on a wonderful condo. We were fortunate to be introduced to Steve and Lea and recommend them very highly. "

You are quick to seek an answer when things appear to be heading off-track. You've stayed in touch regularly and often. You have made this a totally enjoyable process from the start. We can't wait to get to know you and your family better. Happy New Year. And, thanks a million!! "

" Tina was incredibly helpful in finding our family the right home. Her knowledge and expertise of eagle county was invaluable. As out of town buyers, we were impressed with Tina's ability to understand what we were looking for. She was able to find several homes that fit our criteria when we were away. In fact, we bought our house sight unseen knowing how much we trusted Tina's opinion. She went above and beyond in every way, sending videos, frequently checking in via email and phone call, and walked us through the negotiation process and eventual transaction seamlessly. We would recommend Tina to anyone with the highest of confidence. "

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

" 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! "

" 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. "

" 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

" As a first-time home buyer, I was nervous and slow to reach out to anyone for help. Luckily, a friend had given my information to my broker and he contacted me to ask if he could help with my search. Jay made everything easy and less intimidating, he was not only professional and knowledgeable but also fun to work with! He answered all of my questions and never pressured me to make a decision, he let me go at my pace. All because of him, I was able to find my perfect first home! "

- Kayla Wittich

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

We would not hesitate to work with Led again in the future. "

" 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. "

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

I knew of Jack and his reputation, but this interaction exceeded my expectations. From the level of effort that Jack put into this engagement, to the consistent communication to keep me up to speed (even when things were quiet), to the trust that he inspired, to the confident yet humble professionalism that Jack brought to every aspect of the process, no one could have done it better.

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.

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 "

" 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. "

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

- Stuart and Nancy Rabinowitz

" 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. "

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

" 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

" Andrew was great to work with. Andrew managed to work with our very tight schedule to show us properties that were relevant to us, coordinated with the association and title company and continued to help us with information after the close. He was always fast to response. Very knowledgeable, resourceful and accommodating, I strongly recommend Andrew. "

- Carolyn Streich

" We had an absolutely seamless and very enjoyable experience working with George Streeter! Our expectations as buyers were exceeded every step of the way throughout the transaction. From initial offer submission through closing, George's clear communication, availability, and willingness to go the extra mile were very impressive and greatly appreciated - they even helped us find & coordinate with a local day care provider for our toddler which helped alleviate so much stress. We were lucky enough to come across our dream home the first weekend we visited Eagle and needed to move quickly - George was all over it & his ability to perform swiftly and efficiently was paramount in our offer being accepted. As a Mortgage Lender who works with numerous Real Estate agents daily, I can say with 100% confidence that George is the best of the best. I very much look forward to working with him again in the future and will highly recommend him any chance I get. "

" 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. "

- Ric & Heather

" 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! "

" 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) "

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

" I interviewed several realtors before deciding to list my home in early August. I chose Lissa Tyler because of her knowledge, her marketing skills, her professionalism, and her true concern for making the entire process as stress free as possible.

" I had to pass along some really positive feedback on Lime Park's listing brokers. We first met Jenni Marquez at the house and she was great.

" We were selling my parents property from out of state. Every imaginable complication seemed to find this transaction. Kathleen was part detective, part psychoanalyst, part mediator, part negotiator, part property manager--all while being wholly professional and a pleasure to work with. Her expertise in business and ease with people made it possible to bring all the moving parts to a successful close. We are extremely grateful for her counsel and help throughout this process! "

" Jack has great expertise in the Vail and Beaver Creek areas as he has lived in the area for many years. He is very friendly and goes out of his way to make the home search process enjoyable for those he works with. He also knows a lot of people in the area and was great for making recommendations when I needed several contractors to help me with repairs. He was very helpful at finding properties for me to look at that I wasn't aware of, and also with several activities I needed help with after I closed. I would recommend Jack as your next real estate agent. "

" 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. "

" Buying or selling a home in a complex market such as the vail valley is an exciting, even exhilarating undertaking; it can be fraught with myriad pitfalls, however, even for the very experienced. And that is where Donna Caynoski comes in, offering her unique brand: an elegant combination of vision, wisdom, and the deft touch and impeccable sense of timing of a highly seasoned professional who transforms the entire experience into a harmonious strategic exercise that is implemented with precision and grace. All tasks, no matter how small or large, are handled promptly and thoughtfully, so that no detail is overlooked and no one client is treated like any other. Donna’s gift is rooted in her ability to embrace the uniqueness, diversity and humanity of each client, dedicating the time necessary to ask, listen, and understand objectives, dreams, fears and constraints, the better to customize the client journey and protect and maximize clients’ interests. Her knowledge of the various communities, neighborhoods, and indeed individual streets of Vail and its environs (including their respective weather patterns, cultural feel, proximity to amenities and the like) runs deep. Her creativity and intuition are unparalleled, and her network of contacts — e.g., the best architects, attorneys, zoning board specialists, designers, inspectors, and contractors of every kind — are an invaluable resource. In sum, Donna is one of those true rarities, someone whose unwavering commitment to excellence and unfettered love for Vail, its people, and its homes permeates everything she does and is reflected in her amazing outcomes and success.

" 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. "

- James Creighton

" 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. "

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? "

- Robert Minicus

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

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

- Kathryn L. Carson

" 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. "

Just a good guy who knows the valley very well, and is always available. He never tried to talk us into a property, is never pushy, and offers excellent perspective on the various developments, because he was around when many were built. "
