Success Stories- Words from our Clients

We worked with Deena at Summit Real Estate and could not be happier with our experience. The market was absolutely crazy, and Deena was always quick to respond to any question or request. We never missed out on touring properties that we were interested in. We started our search from Wisconsin, and Deena took us on virtual tours so we could get a better handle on what we liked/didn't like before we came out to view properties in person. We ended up purchasing a property after returning to Wisconsin and were comfortable with Deena's virtual tours and her perspective. It took us multiple offers to land a place, but we ended up getting the type of place we wanted and within our budget. Very thankful for all of Deena's work to put us in the best position in each offer. (We had strong offers, but sometimes we were jumped by cash buyers, and so we couldn't have asked for anything more from Summit Real Estate.) While under contract we had constant updates to keep us on track with Margaret, and things could not have gone smoother. If you are looking to purchase a property in Summit County, I cannot recommend Deena and Summit Real Estate highly enough.

This amazing group of women transacted the long-distance sale of two condos for me - from listing to closings in under two weeks! I couldn't believe how smoothly the paperwork was handled. The friendliness, warmth, efficiency, and laughs we shared made me feel like I was with a group of lifelong friends even though I never met them in person. I had been reading the newsletter sent by the Owner for some time and was impressed. That is how I came to choose them to handle these sales. Beyond that, there were personal issues that were thoughtfully handled for me. The entire experience was simply incredible! What a team! Thank you all so very much!

I live out of the state of Colorado. I called Kelie’s real estate office and received a quick response from her. She was very experienced and full of information I needed to complete my purchase, without being there. I have not met her yet, but it was like I had known her personally. She takes the extra mile to help her client find their property. I highly recommend Kelie.

Deena is the consummate professional and exceeded expectations in securing my new home. As a first-time homebuyer, I had basically zero knowledge and understanding of the real estate market and what it takes to purchase a home. Deena made sure that I was completely informed through the entire process and even to provide additional knowledge and guidance after I closed on my home. She was very timely in her responses and even went as far as to respond to my questions and concerns on the weekends and when she was on vacation. There was not a single moment when I felt like Deena didn't have my best interest at heart. She handled everything in a quick and easy manner and made sure I had as little of a burden as possible in the entire process. She was very upfront with how she viewed the market and what it would take to secure the home we were interested in. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home and would feel completely confident she would exceed expectations as a real estate agent for them like she did for me.

We worked with Deena & Summit on the purchase of our Summit property and can't recommend it enough. She was great to work with, especially with the challenges of being remote and helped ease our concerns around some of the properties through the process. We couldn't be happier with the end result and would recommend anyone who is looking for their mountain property, to give Deena a ring.
Leif P.
We had a great experience with Summit Real Estate! Deena was knowledgeable, responsive, and made the home buying experience so easy.
Alison O.
Isabel helped my real estate partnership find a condo in the crazy Summit County market. She was extremely responsive and had a great, positive attitude even though we had her running around all over the place. After 3 or 4 offers we finally found just the right place. I highly recommend Isabel Rawson at Summit Real Estate to help you buy or sell property in Summit County.

I loved working with Kelie Gray. Kelie really knows Summit County. She was able to quickly tell me if a property I was looking at met my criteria. She saved me a lot of time, helping me eliminate properties that weren’t really what I was looking for without me seeing them. I live in Denver and was searching for a property from a distance. Kelie was always happy to go preview a property and FaceTime with me or send me videos. This also saved me a lot of time. I was looking in a very competitive market. Buyers had to be quick and aggressive to win properties. As soon as I told Kelie I liked a property, she showed it to me via FaceTime the same day. I was often the first person to see a property. Kelie is also a direct communicator. She saved me from myself and my own impulsiveness many times. She said no to properties that I might have pursued that really didn’t meet my needs. She was looking out for me. Kelie also always made time for me. She often emailed and texted me late at night when necessary and I never felt like I was burdening her with a late-night message or multiple messages. Kelie has even been a helpful resource after I closed on my property, helping me get rid of furniture that was in our condo that I decided I didn’t want and making recommendations when I needed vendors. She’s a consummate professional and a lovely person. I liked working with her personally and professionally and highly recommend her.

We found our dream home with the help of Kelie Gray at Summit Real Estate. Excellent listening skills, encouraged and answered questions, and most of all was patient as we spent the summer finding just the right home for us!
Angela B.
We worked with Allison and Trisha. They were both very knowledgeable about the market, always available for you, and a joy to work with. We also enjoyed working with the Summit Real Estate Team throughout the process, they are all very friendly and responsive and have great resources available to you.
Stacey T.
When we made the decision to purchase in Summit County, we sought out a realtor who was professional and would work to meet all our needs. Deena Heppner met every expectation and was even available to us while on vacation with her family! As we live out of state, she willingly showed us properties virtually and was diligent in getting every question answered. The process went smoothly, and we are now delighted to be homeowners in the beautiful mountain town of Breckenridge. I would recommend Deena to all my friends and family with no reservation.
Dawn M.
My husband and I had a wonderful experience with the purchase of our vacation home. Deena Heppner is very professional and made the purchase process seamless. I would highly recommend Deena and Summit Real Estate to anyone looking to acquire real estate in the area. Thank you again Deena!

Meg B.
Deena Heppner helped us out in a way that really helped put our minds at ease. We moved out of town and she was so attentive in letting us know when things were changing at the house. She had a great team that tried to get back to us with any of our questions. We would recommend Deena!
S. Earl
Deena Heppner, our realtor with Summit Real Estate, was awesome! I couldn’t recommend her highly enough. We first met and worked with her three years ago when we bought our 2 bedroom condo in Wildernest. She contacted us earlier this year to let us know how much our condo had gone up in value and asked if we were interested in looking at larger properties. Deena ran the numbers and showed how us that it was very doable. We began looking at larger places in the area and she found us an amazing three bedroom townhome. Our condo sold and set a new price/square footage record in the area! Deena is so friendly, kind, and knowledgeable; She knows the area so well. She was always available to answer our questions and concerns no matter the time of day. If you’re looking for a stellar realtor in the area, loook no further, Deena is the best!
C. Kabel-Kotler
A great team! We had a great experience both times!
L. Rogers
Working with Summit Real Estate was a flawless and enjoyable experience. Great communication and coordination along with a friendly and professional approach was very much appreciated. Summit took the time to speak with us, understand our needs, and made the entire process as easy and flowing as possible. Highly recommended.
W. Hard
Allison did an incredible job selling my condo.
G. Baker
We worked with Kelie as well as a few of her team members at Summit Real Estate to find the perfect home for our large family. Because of Kelie's experience and the fact that she has lived in Summit County for 20+ years, we were able to quickly narrow our search to specific areas within Frisco. This was especially important and critical for us, given we were purchasing a home several states away, and knew very little about the area. Her insights and knowledge were invaluable in helping us remain focused on our original criteria and not make a "panic" buy. The wait was so worth it--we love our home and have zero regrets. The entire experience was seamless and everyone we interacted with at Summit Real Estate was immensely helpful and responsive. We highly recommend Kelie and Summit Real Estate--you will not be disappointed
P. Witt
We just bought a house in Breckenridge, and Deena was our realtor. It was a quick and easy process, and Deena (along with the Summit Real Estate team) was a huge help. She answered the many questions that I had and the process was smooth. Highly recommend.

N. Shapiro
We chose Deena Heppner as our realtor in Summit County because of her good reviews and we were not disappointed. She is knowledgeable about neighborhoods and home values in the area. She listened to us in what we were looking for and found a home that met our criteria. Just as important, she guided us in how to structure our offer to be more attractive to the sellers in this competitive market. Once we were under contract, the team at Summit Real Estate helped us keep on schedule for closing. I have to say this was the easiest and quickest closing I have had. I would definitely recommend Deena and Summit Real Estate and would use them in the future.

R. Douty
Kelie has been our Summit County realtor through 2 home purchases and one sale. She's worked hard to understand our needs and to make each transaction flow seamlessly. She is kind with a gentle toughness. Just the right mix for us! The entire Summit Real Estate team goes out of their way to be the best ---from offering the use of their moving van to awesome customer appreciation events and generously giving back to the community. We appreciate you! Mike and Carolyn Bonavida
C. Bonavida
Allison worked with Kathy and me through the process of preparing our Eagles Nest home for sale. She was invaluable in helping us stage the home for photos and showings and in quickly getting our property listed on the various services and the MLS. Our property was under contract 18 days (!) after it went up. Allison continued to work with us through the various phases leading up to a smooth closing. We both highly recommend her and her excellent team.
D. Bryant
We bought a second home from Kelie a couple of years ago and I have to say, it was the easiest and most seamless real estate transaction we have experienced. Kelie is both personable and knowledgeable, a pleasure to work with. She is also readily available with any questions you may have. Thanks again, Kelie!
L. Baker
My wife and I bought a property with Kelie Gray and Summit Real Estate. Kelie is knowledgeable and responsive, if you ask a question, she gets the answer. If she says she will do it, it gets done! Great experience and Summit Real Estate provides great community communication ongoing after the sale.
R. Hoffarth
Kelie Gray and the whole team at Summit Real Estate are amazing! Very knowledgeable, professional, and efficient! Wouldn't dream of using another realtor!

Both my son and I purchased property with Kelie as our agent. She is the best - careful to understand our needs and working hard to find the best fit. She has my strongest recommendation!

Was always quick to respond, kept the process on track and gave us great advice. She picked out the perfect place for us!
S. Drummey
My realtor Deena Heppner was fantastic in connecting me to my dream home in Summit County with a lake view in Dillon. She got to know me and my family, showed us many listings to determine the best fit, and then came up with a home that was a perfect match -- one not even listed yet, but she had the connections to make it happen. All the closing details came together smoothly. I highly recommend Deena Heppner with Summit Real Estate!
J. Kinney
My husband and I were recommended to Kelie Gray at Summit Real Estate - and now I know why! In our first meeting she quickly narrowed down our our needs and desires for location and housing options. From that day on she kept us informed of the market and updates to our inquiries regarding houses we were interested in. Once we found the property we decided to purchase, she was there for us - diligently guiding us through the buying & closing process. We were out of town buyers & Kelie went above and beyond the normal assistance of her realtor duties by meeting service people, keeping everything on schedule and keeping us in the loop as the whole closing/sale process unfolded. We really appreciated her efficiency & ability as a realtor - but most importantly we felt we made a friend in the process. Many thanks Kelie! Definitely a FIVE star Realtor !
P. Berry
Quite simply put, Kelie is THE best. She knows her stuff and possesses a plethora of pertinent, far ranging information. Though every agent has access to all mls listings, it’s what they do or do not do that is important. Kelie KNOWS what to do!
G. Moore
We have had the pleasure of working with Trisha Moore on TWO separate occasions, both buying and selling property in Summit County. My wife and I couldn't recommend her more. She provided us with so many options and really listened to what we wanted, and most importantly, helped us get it! I can promise that you're in good hands if looking to buy or sell in Summit County with Trisha or Summit Real Estate!
S. Dewitt
Working with Trisha Moore made our home buying experience the absolute best. She listened to all of our wants and needs out of a home taking time to find my husband Brandon and I the perfect place. She was there when we we needed her and helped guide us through the whole process. She is the BEST realtor in Summit County!!
A. Lorenzo
Working with Trisha Moore was an absolute pleasure! Knowledgeable, responsive, and friendly! Her help and recommendations made the entire process smoother than I could have imagined! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell property in Summit County!
P. Rubin
Deena was great at understanding our needs and finding us a perfect match.
J. Deist
We worked with Deena and reached out originally over zillow. She has been super responsive and always came through with any additional information we requested.
