OUR STORY Many great successes come from humble beginnings, and such is the case with Slifer Smith & Frampton Real Estate. Founded back in 1962 when Vail was just a fledgling ski mountain in it’s second season, our team has always been dedicated to creating great communities in the mountains we call home. Today, we are a dynamic team of action-oriented brokers, industry-experts, and dedicated support staff working across Summit County, Eagle County, the Roaring Fork Valley and Denver still committed as ever to building communities and delighting our clients.
