SLIFER SMITH & FRAMPTON

& Community Builders & Big Dreamers & Connection Makers & YOU

Slifer Smith & Frampton Real Estate has been building our communities since we first opened our doors on Bridge Street, Vail in 1962. Today we have the honor of representing some of the finest properties and clients across the Vail Valley, Summit County, Aspen & Snowmass, Steamboat Springs and Denver markets, all the while building up these incredible places with the committed power of true local real estate. 

We’re proud to be locally owned and independently operated, with leadership rooted in the same Colorado communities our brokers serve. That keeps our leadership close, our decisions grounded in our markets, and our resources focused on helping great brokers build thriving careers here.

We invite you to build your career with us as we chart the course forward for these communities across Colorado we are so lucky to call home.

Take a look at what we’re about.

  • A dense forest of tall evergreen trees with sunlight filtering through the branches.

    " It just feels like these are my people. It's calm.  People are open, they're willing to share, and I can be who I am, but also scaling my business and growing in a really beautiful way. "

    — Kelsea Imanuel | Denver

  • Close-up of several pine cones and small tree branches on the ground.

     "If you need something, there's a teammate there with the answer. The collaboration that we have together is so seamless, and it is such a breath of fresh air."

    — Jack Affleck | Arrowhead

  • A dense forest of tall, slender aspen trees with white bark and black knots, showing some yellow leaves in the fall.

    " It is all about the team. There's support coming from every direction, whatever the question is, whatever the challenge is, somebody's there to always help."

    — Doug Labor | Steamboat

  • "  Having a team behind me, is so wonderful. It gives me great confidence when I go and meet with a client, knowing that I can call on any of our team members for anything from closing information to marketing ideas. "

    – Led Gardner | Vail Village

  • " The support staff at Slifer Smith & Frampton is one of the most critical resources we have here. My favorite part is walking through the door and being greeted every morning with a smile, with a good attitude, eagerness to help, regardless of the project.

    – Kelsey Withrow | Frisco

  • Locally owned, operated, and focused since day one, our owners and leaders live and work in the Colorado communities we serve, with a firsthand understanding of our unique mountain markets. That means experienced, accessible leadership close at hand to help you build a thriving business.

  • Our brokers genuinely work together. They share ideas, referrals, market knowledge, and opportunities because we believe a strong company should create more business for everyone in it. The result is a company where business moves between people and markets. In recent years, that has translated into more than $200 million in intracompany referral volume.

  • We connect Colorado. Our brokers work together across the state’s leading mountain communities, creating more ways to serve clients, build relationships, and generate referral business. Today we have over 200 agents working in high-impact sales locations from Aspen to Denver.

  • You shouldn’t have to do everything yourself. Our in-house marketing, closing, operations, and administrative teams are here to help you, prospecting, and production. We have over 80 full-time, local support team members working to allow you to focus where it matters most, on your clients.

  • No matter where you are in your career, there’s always room to sharpen your business. We invest in coaching, training, leadership, and peer learning designed to help brokers keep growing. Last year our in-house broker development team hosted over 3,700 broker attendances across their programming.

  • Our independence comes with broad reach. Through Forbes Global Properties, Leading Real Estate Companies of the World, and Luxury Portfolio International, our brokers can tap into respected referral relationships around the world. These networks combine to provide over 135,000 potential referring agents around the world for your listings.

  • We've proudly been an integral part of our communities since we opened our doors in 1962. To date we have given over $2.5 million to great causes across the state, support over 40 unique local events annually, and look forward to supporting many more in the future.

How We’re Different

Serving Communities Across Colorado

  • Rod Slifer was the Vail’s first ever real estate broker, opening his doors on Bridge Street the same year the lifts started spinning, 1962. From the beginning we have been a company focused on building up these incredible communities we call home.

    Today, we are proudly the Vail Valley’s leading brokerage with 14 sales locations across the valley, and we maintain a deep connection to these communities with our headquarters in Avon, Colorado.

  • Summit County was our first foray outside of the Vail Valley when we opened offices in Frisco and Breckenridge in 2004. Today, we are proudly the region’s leading brokerage, and consistently named at the top of Summit Daily’s Best Of Summit list. We’ve added an office in Keystone and have over 50 leading brokers all working together to serve their valued clients across the county.

Today, we have cutting-edge offices in Snowmass Base Village and just steps away from the Aspen gondola right downtown. Here our ethos of building mountain communities lives as strong as anywhere.

  • Our most recent expansion has been into Steamboat Springs serving communities across the Yampa Valley, this targeted team works out of an iconic downtown office situated right between Main Street and Howelsen Hill. They embody our vision of local real estate as a force for good within our community.

  • Denver & the Front Range are some of our mountain communities’ leading feeder markets. We’re proud to have a boutique presence located platform-side at Union Station in the Coloradan, to connect to this area directly, and to support our valued Front Range clients with our signature service.
