Aimee's Story
I feel fortunate to be in a place as wonderful as Summit County. Never having been here before making it our home, my husband and I decided to move to Colorado. With ambitions to play in the snow full time, we got jobs working for the resorts, in Keystone and Breckenridge. I am happy to say that a season turned in to several, and we have been able to put roots in to this incredible community. Working for the reservations department for Keystone and Breckenridge Resorts afforded me the opportunity to learn the lay of the land pretty quickly. Having a strong customer service background, I was successful in that position and soon started thinking about a career in real estate. I have always viewed my role in real estate as a customer service position, not sales. I am here to help you achieve your goals and not to sell you something. Through an acquaintance, I learned of a position opening up as a front desk administrator for a local real estate company in Breckenridge. I was hired, and happily worked and learned, and soaked up all I could for the next 2 years. At that point, I was looking to grow a little further professionally, and a call from a former co-worker about a broker assistant position couldn't have been timed any better. After meeting with Todd and Barb Rankin, I knew I had found the motivated, smart, and enthusiastic team I was looking for to start my journey into being a broker myself. I thank the Rankins and Cornerstone Real Estate for giving me the solid foundation I stand on and continue to grow my business with today.
Summit County holds a special place in many hearts. Whether you live here full time, visit occasionally, or have only been once, I think it's safe to say you've shared moments that have become lasting memories. This place is unique in that we are all here because we want to be. Many, like myself, have moved here from far away places and have no intention of leaving anytime soon. Whether I'm hiking, biking, painting, snowboarding or even going to the post office, I am in awe of the natural beauty that surrounds us here in Summit. I love the people, the lifestyle, and plan on sharing my love of the mountain life with those around me for as long as possible. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to get to know you, assist you in your real estate needs, or for the chance to just share my favorite coffee spot with you!
Here is what my clients have to say about working with me:
"Thank you Aimee! If I hear of anyone looking to buy in Summit County, you will be who I refer them to! :)" - Marcus 2023
"I sold a property near Fairplay last year and cold called Aimee for help. I couldn't have been luckier with whom I called. Aimee is VERY professional, hard-working, great communicator and the BEST realtor I have worked with. And I have worked with many. She was on top of everything and when I called about something, she already had it under control! I can't say enough about her. She is the BEST!" Jeff Barnett 4/6/21
"Aimee did a great job for us, shopping for properties in Breckenridge. We pre-screened 5 agents from Texas. Aimee was one of only two who adequately responded. Once in Breckenridge, Aimee was always on time and well prepared. She learned our selection criteria and recommended additional listings that became two of our top candidates. She worked very hard for us and even responded after hours and on Sunday. Her extensive knowledge of the housing and rental market was valuable to our efforts." Jack English 6/17/19
"It was a pleasure working with you Aimee. Love the excellent customer experience you provided. Always available to help and to answer any questions I had. Definitely will work with you in the future!!" Martinez Abby 8/18/18
"Aimee is a joy to work with while attempting to find a home. She knows the area well and makes sure you feel 100% comfortable before closing a deal. She goes above and beyond, and puts the clients needs at the forefront of the deal all the way until closing. You won’t find a better realtor." Morgan Sneller 6/2/18
