Jean is awesome. She helped us through a difficult negotiation and had our interests first and foremost the entire time. I highly recommend her.

"I recently experienced the residential real estate services of Janice Gerona of Village Real Estate and had an outstanding result. She sold my interest in the Franz Klammer Lodge (which we really loved) and found just the right 4 bedroom vacation house for our family in the Mountain Village of Telluride. She has a detailed knowledge of the market, and deep understanding of my needs as a buyer and works tirelessly to make sure that ALL of the details are tended to. We were very picky buyers and sellers and she met all of our little challenges along the way with a great attitude and a can-do spirit. As I am a 25 year veteran of the commercial real estate business, I know good service when I see it.  Janice delivered!" - Tony Long

My husband and his two friends first experienced the Franz Klammer in 1996 and as a result three couples all became owners. Keeping an already formed friendship together and forming too many memories to mention, our friendships expanded among the FKL owners. Although we are fortunate to still be skiing; we found the other seasons to bring wonderful enjoyment from hiking to the Film Festival. All this in one of the most beautiful parts of Colorado - what more could you ask for!!! - Joan Maclachlan

Abby genuinely cares about each and every one of her clients. She is excited and passionate about real estate and constantly learning more about the market and field. She has provided as much emotional support for me as a first-time home buyer as she has professional insight. She is super responsive and stays on top of paperwork and other details in a timely manner. I have worked with her on three different sales now!

Jean Vatter has been our realtor for about 5 years! She has shown us homes in the Telluride area for at least the last three years and was always cheerful about our endless search! We finally bought a home from her in July of 2019 and everything went perfectly! Jean recommended a great title company, mortgage company, and inspector! Jean represented us, the buyer, and the seller on our purchase and did it in a very professional way! Very pleasant person to be around!!!

Janice was attentive and prompt in handling all of the details in our sale. She was a great communicator and advocate in working through the myriad steps (and hiccups) in getting our property to close. Friendly, professional, prompt and good humored, we couldn't have found a better, more responsive broker. 

THANKS, Mike & Cindy H.

We first bought in the Franz Klammer Lodge in 2005 due to the excellent representation of Janice Gerona.  After a couple of years we decided that we wanted to spend more time in Mountain Village and needed  something that we could use more frequently. Janice was able to sell our 3 BR in a few weeks and we moved on to another property. We eventually realized that we could not spend as much time in Mountain Village as we previously thought, thus we sold our other property. After a couple of years we really missed our trips of hiking and skiing, etc. I gave Janice a call to discuss our new plans which were to utilize the many reciprocal opportunities available through the Franz Klammer. Janice as usual made it happen and we were  owners again in less than three weeks. - Mr. & Mrs. Watts, Amelia Island, FL

Emma Brown is the MOST responsive, personable and knowledgeable realtor I have worked with in over 4 decades of buying and selling property. Truly the best in the business! Her expertise in the market while taking the time to understand my needs and timing to close on the property was outstanding. From day 1, Emma ensured I understood the process, the requirements to ensure a quick and smooth sale. I would highly recommend Emma to my family and friends and have done so on several occasions. She is the best in the business and went above and beyond even at close when I had to fly in with little notice (I closed faster than expected) and personally helped me move out my belongings. With the enormous amount of paperwork that goes into the selling/buying of a property, I always felt Emma made my sale a priority, explained every clause, answered every question (more than once!) and was personally invested from start to finish. A stellar agent that I would rate 15 out of 10 if that is possible. After one meeting with Emma, you will understand why I say she is absolutely the best in real estate.
