& Leading The Way.

Across the state Slifer Smith & Frampton is Colorado’s #1 independent real estate brokerage, as well as the #1 firm full stop in our Vail Valley & Summit County markets. We are proud of this figure, but more important to us is what stands behind it: the valued clients & relationships that our brokers have built over the past 60 years of business. Most importantly though, our Colorado focus allows us to channel this preeminence into the good of our communities.
