My siblings and I recently hired Mark McManis, of HomeSmart Realty Group in Summit County, to list…read moreour condo. Mark came highly recommended by another Summit County resident as, "The best realtor in the area." Mark lived up to this recommendation. Mark and his wife, Liz, are longtime residents of Summit County. They are very involved and well connected in the community, which provides Mark with a multitude of connections to draw upon when selling a property in the Summit County area. In addition to those connections, Mark's affiliation with HomeSmart Realty Group also provides Mark with hundreds of other associations to find the perfect buyer. Mark was the ultimate professional in returning calls, emails and texts promptly, and staying on top of all deadlines. His expertise in the local housing market enabled us to list our property for top price, yet sell our property in record time, even though we had been cautioned by other realtors that our desired listing price was, "Too high," and that we were attempting to sell the property during a, "Slow period," in the market. I highly recommend Mark McManis of HomeSmart Realty Group in Summit County. Thank you, Mark, for making our real estate transaction such a smooth, pleasant experience from beginning to end!

Mark helped us sell our town home and purchase a new build house. He communicated through every…read morestep of the process and provided excellent information about what we needed to fix to be able to sell (ie: broken latch on bathroom door). His knowledge of the area and real estate trends helped us to settle on a realistic asking price. Although you might think you don't need a realtor for a new build, he also helped us working with our builder. He knew the building code and was able to point out things that they needed to do to make sure our house would be ready by our closing date. Our builder was a little stubborn and he helped to push forward our needs with authority. We would definitely use Mark's office for any future real estate needs!

We own a condo in Dillon, but live out of state. When we decided to sell in January 2020, Betty…read morecoordinated with our property management company and our HOA. She and her team arranged for a handyman, painters, and a cleaning service. It was on the market for only a short time when we changed our minds about selling, and asked Betty to pull the listing. She stayed in touch and when we were ready in April of 2021, she went to work immediately. In fact, she had it ready and relisted in less than one week. We received three full price offers and were under contract in six days. I was trust Betty and was confident in having her represent us as sellers. Her judgement and flexibility in 2019 helped us get a 25% higher selling price in 2021! Full disclosure: I worked with Betty in the resort industry from 1994-1999. She has been a family friend even after I moved away. She raised her family here, plays and works here, and really knows Summit County well!

I've purchased and sold 9 properties in the past 12 years and have never had a bad experience until…read morenow. My condo went under contract in 1 day. After we went under contract, my realtor recommended we increase the sale price by $4000 and then give it back to the buyer in "concessions" at closing (to aid the buyer with his loan qualification). Little did I know that I would be paying capital gains and realtor commissions and 2% Colorado sales tax on that "$4000". Among other things, my realtor actually changed the closing date (by 2 weeks) without bothering to tell me, literally leaving me less than 24 hours to find a notary and overnight the closing docs (right in the middle of the coronavirus national shut-down). I am sure the other agents in this company are fine, but mine did me no favors. Never felt like he was looking out for my best interest.

We went to Breckenridge for a family event, it's our favorite place to vacation and we decided to…read morelook into purchasing a condo that we could stay in and rent it out when not there. This was all new to us. Elle Dice represented us on our condo purchase in Breck while we were over 1,000 miles away in the Chicago area and was absolutely the best at answering our many questions and is incredibly kind. She has lived in Breckenridge her whole life so is very familiar with the area and full of knowledge about all the activities available. We were walk- in first time buyers lost and looking for help finding a place, during our short stay in Breck mid June and after our initial meeting Elle was very efficient showing us properties in our price range the very next day. Elle seemed to go the extra mile to tour and send videos of properties, search answers to detailed questions and refer local contractors while continuing to show us comparable listings until we narrowed in on a condo we liked. We can't imagine working with anyone better and highly recommend Elle for anyone looking to buy or sell real estate in Breckenridge. She is very knowledgeable of Summit County, prompt responding to questions, is tech savvy, excellent communication skills and very professional. Thank you Elle!!

Kirk and Dak Dice recently represented us on the purchase of a new condo and the sale of our former…read morecondo in Breckenridge. They did an outstanding job on both transactions. First, they helped us find the new property after we gave them a sense of what we were looking for. Then, they capably steered us through to a timely closing. Even more impressive was their work on the sell-side. They found a buyer for our former condo before we even placed it on the market and helped us negotiate a very good price! In short, Kirk and Dak consistently went above and beyond during every phase of our two transactions, and their knowledge of the market and connections in the community paid big dividends for us. And on top of all that, they're both great guys with high integrity.

First of all we spoke with her in depth about our options and was able to optimize our offer. After we were under contract she was fast, friendly, and above all so knowledgeable.

Going above and…read morebeyond doesn't even begin to describe Jason's work ethic and total commitment in getting you the best deal possible. Without him, we have no doubt that we would not have been able to complete the closing on our condo. We live out of state and have relied on Jason for so much more than just realty. Your door lock not working and you need someone to call? Jason will get you the information you need. Need some advice on whether you should sell or buy? Jason will give you sound and direct guidance. Need to feel like someone has your back in a complicated negotiation process? Jason is the one you want. He is the most dedicated real estate agent we have ever had the privilege of working with. With Jason, you not only feel like you have the best agent ever, you feel like you have a lifelong friend who will always be there for you. We only wish Jason was licensed in every state so we could continue working with him on future deals. Best of the best and a friend for life!! -David and Susan Spicer, Austin, Texas.

It was a pleasure dealing with their staff, very friendly and gave insightful info/directions on the area since we've never been there before. They also provided us with a list of coupons/discount they have for the area, which we used a few times. The 2 bedroom condo was very nice and clean. Two new flat screen tv's, washer/dryer machine and dishwasher. It snowed quite a bit and the roadways on the property were all plowed and maintained promptly. The hot tub was fairly close to the unit and was empty both times we went. They have transportation to the mountains via Free Shuttle, but the walk to the shuttle stop is a little far so we ended up driving. Will definitely consider staying with them again next time we visit the area!
