“Having bought and sold a dozen properties I have worked with a few real estate professionals and I have to say Christina is one of the best! Facing almost no inventory and high prices, I could not have closed on my home without Christina. Additionally, with her market knowledge she was able to quickly sell a property for considerably more than I expected. All with a smile and being an exceptional human.”   Read Full Review

She kept me apprised at every step. She is a great choice as your agent.”   Read Full Review

“We could not have navigated purchasing a home without Christina and her team. When we first met with her, she impressed us with her knowledge of the area and interest in truly finding the right home for us. She provided us ample information on the local market history and projections. When we were looking for homes we lived in a different state and she was so wonderful in providing personal walk through videos in a timely manner. The market was very competitive but she never gave up hope. Her expertise and personalization in writing our offer letter truly is the reason we have our dream home. Not only did she help us in purchasing the home but she continues to provide us recommendations for local businesses and connections. She is the realtor you want and you won’t regret it! (Plus there are cute doggos in her office)”   Read Full Review

We were impressed with Christina’s communication, follow-up and most importantly her capacity to listen to our needs. We would highly recommend Christina for any real estate needs.”   Read Full Review

Working with Christina also felt like having a direct plug into the business heartbeat of Durango. No matter what needed done Christina seemed to be ready with a referral contact and an offer to set up an appointment for us. Thank you Christina!”   Read Full Review

“Amber was incredibly knowledgeable and responsive. She also has great resources outside of the normal real estate area. After the first day of looking around, she totally knew what we were looking for. Most agents just go thru the motions of taking people around and showing properties. For Amber it was more then that, she was genuinely interested in finding out what our needs and wants for a home were. She went above and beyond the call. When we were at a negotiation impasse with seller's, Amber really stepped up to make sure everything was being looked at and taken care of, and for us being out of state, that was incredibly important. We don't know what we would've done with out her patience and good will. We not only consider her a great agent but she's also become a great friend.We highly recommend getting in touch with Amber if you're looking for your next home.”   Read Full Review

She guided us not only through the home buying process, but also worked with us through temporary renting arrangements to ensure a smooth transition as we moved into Durango.In particular, through her knowledge of our needs and requirements, combined with understanding of the Durango area, she was able to find our new home, even before it hit the overall MLS. We’re enjoying our new home, neighborhood, and town and once again, do highly recommend Amber.”   Read Full Review

“Amber was such a pleasure to work with! She was so accommodating and helped us get through the process of buying a house on a big time crunch, most of which was while I was out of town. She offered a lot of suggestions and clarity along the way, and she made the process so easy for us. Amber was always quick to respond and gave honest input in our decisions. I highly recommend her!”   Read Full Review

“Amber was amazing to work with and we are so grateful to her for going above and beyond. She found us our dream house, which was not easy given our modest price range. She guided us calmly, steadily, and strategically through an emotional roller coaster of negotiations with the Seller. She helped us to close the deal from afar, and even held the Seller accountable to agreements at closing by inspecting the house in person (we were 400 miles away) and insisting the Seller honor those agreements. I've heard that buying a house is never easy, but Amber was exactly the guide we needed to take us through this challenging process and make our dream a reality. She is honest, trustworthy, intuitive, strategic, kind, and firm when she needs to be so. She has a great deal of knowledge, skill and experience which she brings to bear at every moment. We are so grateful to her!”   Read Full Review

“Amber helped us long distance as we lived in the Denver Metro while shopping for our home in Durango. She sent us listings almost daily during our year long search. We found a home that meet our needs and now she continues to be a great resource for local services.”   Read Full Review

“We had a fantastic experience with Amber! We selected her based on her profile, which detailed her local knowledge and expertise with land acquisition. This turned out to be a very wise decision. From the start, she showed us all the available parcels and helped us narrow down the list; all of this was done remotely initially since we are in the Chicago area. Then for our visit to Durango, she took the time to show us the lots that were the best fit for us. Once it came time to make an offer, she gave us expert guidance that led to offer acceptance. There were several complications prior to close, but Amber showed great attention to detail, a keen sense of urgency, and great negotiation skills to get us across the goal line for a successful closing. We could not be happier with her representation, and give her the highest possible recommendation!”   Read Full Review

“Amber is awesome to work with! Extremely knowledgeable & helpful. Amber helped us purchase & sale homes in the Durango area with great professionalism & ease!”   Read Full Review

“We tried selling our home off and on for over 5 years after relocating to a different state. Sadly, we had become accustomed to a lack of communication, follow up, and very little activity on our listing. Once we found Amber we suddenly had an action plan, to do lists and an engaged professional leading the charge on our behalf. She was honest and firm about what she believed it would take to find a buyer, and put us in touch immediately with local people who could help make necessary repairs and get our house ready. Within just one month we had an offer, and we closed on the sale 30 days later. Amber is a great communicator and super responsive. We couldn't be happier with the service we received - we just wish we had found her sooner!”   Read Full Review

“I have counted on Chris for more than 10 years for my real estate needs. He is the most knowledgeable agent I have ever worked with. Chris is competent, communicative, and will deliver results. Chris excels in negotiations via his vast and varied experience not only in the local market but in the national picture as well. If Chris is selling real estate I see no reason to look elsewhere!”   Read Full Review

“Bought and sold two houses with Chris. He was a pleasure to work with and had a very able and helpful team in support. He provided information that was useful in the decision making. He offered to do the extra things that make a real estate transaction run smoothly that some realtors are unwilling to do.”   Read Full Review

“Since our first interaction, Chris was positive, even-handed, and thorough. His extensive knowledge of the local market and current local trends expedited our search and purchasing process. Chris was available night and day to field our questions and concerns. Additionally, he demonstrated an excellent working relationship with the other professionals throughout our process. I would recommend him without reservation and suggest you call him first when prospecting real estate in the Durango area.”   Read Full Review

“I didn't include anything with respect to negotiation skills because, once we decided on a place, it was actually Chris' listing and he ended up being a joint realtor on the deal. I view "joint" representations as seller representations (although I'm confident his negotiation skills are very good). So, though Chris for the most part (he did show us two other properties on the same day we saw the one we ultimately purchased) technically was not working for me, I found him to be highly professional, honest, and diligent, with excellent knowledge of the local market. He is also very personable and patient, so if you are working with him as a buyer, you will like him.”   Read Full Review

“We’ve worked with Chris for 12 years. Every transaction has been smooth. He’s an excellent realtor who always picked up the phone and answered our questions and put our minds at ease. His honesty is refreshing. He was patient with us. A life long resident of Durango, he knows Southwest Colorado. I will definitely work with him in the future.”   Read Full Review

Chris did an outstanding job advising us on the different neighborhoods, giving objective advice on the homes we found interesting, and then help us negotiate an excellent price and guide us and the seller through the closing process. Highly recommended.”   Read Full Review
