Our Clients Say it Best

Purchased a Single Family Home in Buena Vista, 2022

Christian Vales

"Christian Vales and the Breck Life Group were great! He was an amazing resource throughout our home search and purchase process. Whereas many agents would just send lists of properties that met specific metrics (size, beds, baths, price, etc), Christian really took the time to understand us and what we wanted. When we came for a visit, he was very friendly and had a great attitude the whole time, even as we drug him from one outer edge of their service area to another. When we finally got our dream home under contract, he and his TC Jess were great at keeping us updated throughout the process. No texts or calls ever went unanswered for more than a few minutes. As a fellow RE broker, I had high expectations, but Christian exceeded them all."

Gretchen Gallacher

"We worked with Gretchen as our buyer's agent for a condo in Summit County and she was absolutely FANTASTIC! The place we ultimately bought was a FSBO, which provides its own challenges. Gretchen smoothly handled our side of the transaction. Even with all the extra challenges, we closed on time - no doubt 100% because Gretchen was such a professional. I absolutely recommend Gretchen and
Breck Life Group."

Pete Deininger

"Pete Deininger and his fantastic team at Breck Life Group helped us twice in the past four years. Pete helped us locate our wonderful Highland Greens townhome in 2018 while we were still living in California. He helped us as our second set of eyes to find us the perfect mountain home in Breckenridge. Pete is an excellent listener and full of real estate knowledge.

Now, four years later, Pete and his team helped us once again to sell this property. Our life circumstances changed a bit, which made us decide to sell the townhome. We met with Pete Deininger and Gretchen Gallagher to determine the most successful sales strategy. They both recommended the best listing price, which was higher than we anticipated. As it turned out, the final selling price was 10% above this listing price. It barely took a weekend to capture the perfect buyer and it was smooth sailing from there! We have bought and sold numerous homes over the years in New York, Arizona, California and Colorado. Pete and his group are the best we have ever worked with, by far. This was probably the most efficient and successful real estate transaction we ever had!

Thank you to Pete and staff for their professional and friendly manner. We highly recommend Breck Life Group for anyone looking to buy or sell property in Summit County. You can easily rely on them for up-to-date real estate trend information and advice. They are the BEST!!! Be sure and check out Pete Deininger/Breck Life Group’s marketing videos on YouTube Thank you Breck Life Group!"

Aleks Matthews

"Aleks Matthews did an excellent job helping us purchase a home in Blue River. We live in Arizona and she did all the ground work for us. She was super knowledgeable about Colorado Real Estate laws and what to look for in mountain properties. She got back to us within minutes when we had a question and worked tirelessly with the sellers to make the transition go smoothly. She really knows the area and gave us many local connections for help with everything from plumbers to trash collectors. I highly recommend Aleks if you are buying or selling in Summit County."

Christian Vales

"The group made contact with me after I signed up for the mailing list. It felt too good to be true, and I was very nervous in the beginning. That said, having just closed and visited our new home, I have to say the experience was exceptional. We worked with Christian who took us patiently through every step of the journey. His knowledge of the Market was first class. He "managed" me through the process so I wasn't chasing him to find out what was going on. He was proactive and responsive when I did reach out. Everything from exploring the viability of the purchase, determining what I wanted from the purchase through to closing and even beyond. I don't normally do google reviews, but as a thank you to the team for their exceptional service, I agreed to do this one. Christian went Above and Beyond and I would highly recommend him."

Christian Vales

"Christian was 5 stars across every metric - market awareness, data-driven, consultative, timely, & professional. We really enjoyed working with Christian. He helped us find a rental investment in what turned out to be the location for everything we would want in a property. We originally were set on a 2BR/2BA but Christian worked with our limits on investment to find a better suited property to fit all our desires (& finances)."

Purchased a Townhome in Breckenridge, 2022

Aleks Matthews

"We just completed the purchase of our townhome in Breckenridge. We first met our broker, Aleks, when she was employed as a property manager and we were checking in to rent a property. At that time we casually let her know we were interested in purchasing a condo in Breckenridge. She later became a Broker with Breck Life Group and stayed in touch with us, even though we purchased a condo in 2019 through another broker. We decided that we wanted to upgrade to a townhome and through one of Aleks calls to us, we said we had a particular townhome in mind. Aleks eventually contacted us with a new listing. This townhome had much buyer interest and I honestly felt we did not have a chance. Because of Alek's professional communication with the seller broker and her sound advice to us, we secured the purchase. Further, there were post sale issues (not due to anyone's fault) that arose. Alek's could have easily moved on as the sale was closed, but she continued to work with both us and the buyer, out of pure courtesy and a commitment to service. Aleks still stays in touch to make sure everything is fine with our new purchase."

"Pete Deininger came highly recommended and that was great advice! He recently sold my properties at 592 and 591 Ryan Gulch Road in Silverthorne, Co. His group was very professional, efficient, and pleasant to work with. His expertise came across in the photographer he chose to take pictures of the home. They were amazing! I would give Pete a 5 plus rating! You'll love working with him!"

Pete Deininger

"When we met Pete over 2 years ago, we were considering Breck as a full-time place to live but we knew little about the neighborhoods or the nuance of living in a vacation town. Pete's experience and knowledge was invaluable in every aspect of choosing and buying a home. He had insights about every block in town, and knew quite a bit about each house we considered. Pete helped us find the house that was better than we could have imagined, and we were able to buy with the confidence we would be in the right house in an amazing location. Pete and his team were super helpful and professional at every aspect of the transaction."

"We’ve worked with Pete on several real estate transactions in Breckenridge and each time his knowledge, service and command of the current market have been outstanding! Pete recently helped us sell our home. His marketing of our home was spot on and helped us sell for over the listing price in only one day! He created a video featuring the top 5 things he loved about our home. The video was creative, personalized to our home and location in Breckenridge and very professionally done. Pete’s team is also extremely helpful and easy to work with. We highly recommend Pete and his team at Breck Life Group!!"

Purchased a Condo in Breckenridge, 2021

Gretchen Gallacher

"I was recommended to use this agency to purchase a mountain home that I intended to use as a short term rental property and vacation home. Gretchen Gallacher was the best realtor I have ever worked with. She was very responsive, thorough communication, puts in a lot of time (even when she's supposed to be on vacation), and worked quickly to find a property that met my criteria in the very quick timeframe required by the 1031 exchange program. There were some issues throughout the contract process, but she was on top of them and kept me in the loop. This office specializes in the local market within Summit County, so they have unique expertise to meet search criteria. Gretchen was instrumental in pinpointing the right location for optimizing my financial investment. I had a competitive income analysis done for two properties I was interested in, and the one she was recommending with specific reasons for her assessment, was by far greater. They also have trusted relationships with key partners (property managers, lenders, inspectors), so she was able to provide all the required contacts. Her coordination and frequent communication during the contract to close process resulted in a successful closing, and I would highly recommend anyone to work with her in their future property search."

"We used Gretchen Gallacher and Breck Life Group to find our Breckenridge condo four years ago and there was never any question who we would call when we were ready to sell. Gretchen is a Summit County expert and positioned our condo for quick sale. The entire team was responsive and kept us informed throughout the process. We already contacted Gretchen about another property and she went out of her way to preview it for us. We highly recommend Gretchen and Breck Life Group! Dave & Beth."

"Gretchen Gallacher has been incredible since the beginning of our investment property search in 2018. We have now had a couple different properties in Summit County and Gretchen was there all the way to help us navigate through the competitive market and kept us on a positive track to patience and finding the right place. We would highly recommend anyone looking for property in Summit County seek out the services of Gretchen from the Breck Life Group. We are very thankful we had someone of her expertise in our corner during this crazy time in real-estate in Colorado."

Gretchen Gallacher

"Cannot recommend Gretchen Gallacher and Breck Life Group enough! Gretchen made the process of finding our vacation home so smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. Gretchen was extremely knowledgable of both the Breckenridge and Keystone areas. She helped us narrow down what location and property type was right for us based on our needs and gave great guidance throughout our home search. When it came time to put in an offer, Gretchen and her team made the process incredibly smooth. She was extremely responsive, always prepared and informed us of the best third parties to work with each step of the way. Plus, she was fun to work with! If you are in need of a realtor in Breckenridge or Keystone areas, call Gretchen - you will not be disappointed!"

Best customer service I have had in a long time! And she put up with me wonderfully. I wasn't the easiest to deal with. Absolutely wonderful person. Now she is helping me purchase more land next to me. She's the best there is out there!"

Aleks Matthews

"We were extremely happy with our experience with Aleks. The best things about Aleks were her responsiveness and thoroughness of her communications. Aleks took a lot of time teaching us about buying in Summit County, showing us various properties to expose us to different property types and options, giving us really in-depth information in response to our questions and making sure that we were always prepared for next steps. We were never left guessing about what we needed to do. Aleks also was a great strategist and provided valuable advice during the offer process. Finally, We loved her weekly snapshot emails- they were must-read for us as we learned about the Summit County market. We definitely will use Aleks again in the future."

"My wife and I highly recommend Aleks. She is professional, candid, and terrifically knowledgeable about the local market, issues that affect pricing and closing, and opportunities for short-term rental. She also was both proactive and extraordinarily responsive. Her 24/7 responsiveness was particularly important and appreciated in the current market, where obtaining timely information that allowed us to react quickly and decisively was crucial. Finally, Aleks went above and beyond to help us on numerous matters relating to the purchase and new home ownership in Breckenridge."

"Aleks is the definition of going the extra mile and she is the best agent I had the pleasure of working with. We were out-of-town investors looking for a second home, and we truly would not have done this without her support. Our situation was also complex (we are 4 partners), and she helped us navigate all the ins and outs, from finding a local lender, to helping with utility setup, all the way through finding a management company. I wish there were more stars to give, that's how great I feel about working with her!"

She was very particular how the house should look for presentation and paid off. She got pretty much what I was hoping for on price. Aleks helped make for as stress free experience as possible and was a pleasure working with her."

Christian Vales

"I have bought and sold 10 houses in the last 20 years. Christian Vales is by far the best realtor I have ever had. The septic inspection revealed a problem, which needed to be repaired. I called around and no one could even come by to look at it for at least 2 weeks. Christian called up his contactor, who was going to be doing another job for him close by. Three days later, it had been excavated, repaired, re-scoped and had an inspectors stamp of approval. BAM! Ready to close. He met everyone there to make sure it went smooth and is very knowledgable about construction. Christian also let us know about the status of the rental permit, many things about the integrity of the house, trails to hike on, the best restaurants in Breck, specifics about AT skiing, mountain biking… He is just amazing. He was always there to answer questions and do the leg work to get things done."

"I recently purchased my first ski condo with the help of Christian Vales. This being my first time purchasing I relied on Christians knowledge of the area, expertise, and resources to guide me into a perfect ski in ski out condo. I was treated with professionalism and finding a condo that matched my needs, budget, and future plans was the most important thing to Christian!"

"We found Christian blindly through the internet. Being from Denver we had many real estate connections, but wanted someone we had no ties with. We thought the process would take us much longer, but with Christians knowledge of the market and connections we found our new place within 3 months. We felt very comfortable with Christian from the start. He listened to us and tailored searches accordingly. He was very helpful and detailed throughout our entire process. Always willing to meet quickly and at off times. We would for sure recommend Christian and his team for anyone searching for there new mountain escape."

Christian Vales

"Christian Vales recently helped us purchase a wonderful home in Breckenridge that we know our whole family will enjoy! Even though we have owned a second home in Breckenridge for seven years, Christian brought a wealth of knowledge about the current real estate market in Summit County. Christian was responsive to all our needs and questions both during the looking phase and after our offer was accepted. He went over to the new house many times to clarify exactly what furniture, etc. would be left, to check on necessary repairs, and to answer specific questions we had about the new home. He was always available to walk us through each stage of the buying process, answering numerous questions and quickly following up on items when needed. We highly recommend Christian Vales and Breck Life Group to anyone that is looking to purchase a home in the Summit County area!"

"We worked with Christian to purchase a condo in the Summit county area. We originally got connected with Christian and Breck Life Group through the realtor.com website/app. His familiarity with the nuances of purchasing in Summit county were incredibly valuable and I have no doubt aided in our success in finding and purchasing our new home! Christian, Jessica and everyone on their team were always quick to respond throughout the whole process, and very patient in answering all the extra questions we had (since this was only the second home purchase we had ever made). I would confidently recommend Christian Vales and the Breck Life Group to anyone looking to purchase a home around Summit county."

"It was a pleasure working with Christian on our recent land purchase. He helped us navigate the local market, made us aware of what items to look out for, and showed us properties or lots that made the most sense for us based on our needs. He definitely went above and beyond in helping us get comfortable with the possibilities or limitations of the property, and really took the time to explain any items we had questions on or were unsure of. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to buy/sell a property in the area."

"We highly recommend Gretchen Gallacher & the Breck Life Group! Gretchen showed us many homes in the Breckenridge area and took videos of several other homes when we could not be there. She was knowledgeable about the Summit County area and was very patient with us we navigated a very tight market. Pete also spent time with us & gave valuable advice throughout the process. Ultimately, Gretchen helped us buy a property sight unseen and to close electronically. She guided us through the inspection process and worked tirelessly to get the seller to repair many items and to obtain bids and find contractors for the remaining items. This attention to detail & willingness to do whatever it takes to finalize a purchase sets Breck Life apart from other realtors. We love the house we purchased and are very grateful to Gretchen for all her help!"

Christian Vales

"I was very happy to learn that Christian has lived in the Breckenridge area in some capacity for most of his life. Not only was he very knowledgeable about the various properties in the area but also the culture and activities in Breckenridge. While looking at properties with him, he engaged us in conversation about our interests and suggested ways to connect around town. He is very personable and I knew I could call, email or text him anytime with any question during our search. Looking at listings from home and not being able to see them in person, we relied heavily on Christian to weed out the better choices and he successfully found the perfect place for us. Even after the closing he has offered to be a contact for any question or service we have moving forward as we settle into our new vacation condo and the Breckenridge community. We very much enjoyed working with Christian and would recommend using him if your looking for property in this area."

Christian Vales

"Christian represented us recently on the buy side of a complex transaction that included many unexpected hurdles and a challenging negotiation process. He was calm and clear headed in the face of difficulties and we felt confident our interests were being protected by Christian and his colleagues. I’d recommend him highly. Usually real estate transactions go smoothly and you might not fully appreciate all the behind the scenes support provided by your agent. When a transaction gets challenging, you suddenly realize how much having a good agent matters. You can feel confident with someone like Chritian Vales in your corner."

"Christian Vales of Breck Life Group met our son, Ryan, at a townhouse open house he hosted in early 2020. Ryan immediately contacted us and spoke very highly of Christian. We began our search for a family place in Breck starting in February. Most of our immediate family resides in Michigan and we had to rely heavily on Christian. He was in constant communication and the third time was the charm as we just closed on a great condo in exactly the area we wanted to be in and the price range. Christian, Jessica and others with the Breck Life Group team made our remote closing very easy and he has continued to answer a myriad of questions as we begin moving in to our place. We couldn't recommend Christian and the Breck Life Group more highly to anyone looking for professional, responsive, and caring real estate professionals."

"All I can say is call Pete! We needed to sell our home but made the mistake of listing with Liv Sotheby's. After way too long with little activity and almost no effort from our agent we came to understand the myth of Sotheby's. We asked around, looked for an agent that actually markets, and Pete's name kept coming up. We talked, Pete listened, then explained his active approach to find buyers. Pete's team blew us away as they prepped our home, took amazing photos and video then shared how they were marketing our home. Only a week later we had a great offer for more than we were previously listed at, bumped it up a bit from there. Pete's advice got the rest done smoothly and we no longer have two mortgage payments! Thank you Pete."

"We purchased our home in Breckenridge with Pete Deininger and had a great experience. Thus, when it was time to sell our home, we again chose Pete and his amazing team at Breck Life Group. We were literally blown away that they were able to sell our home in 3 months - to the date it was listed!!! In spite of really heavy snow fall, creating some minor roof challenges, Pete and his team were on top of EVERYTHING!! It's tough to sell a home when you're 2000 miles away, but Pete and his team kept us informed and updated almost daily of what was going on. They answered all questions and helped us through the process step-by-step from listing to closing. We highly recommend Pete and his entire team!!!"

"We purchased both a residential and a commercial property in Breckenridge with the help of Pete Deininger and his team. The entire experience was among the best we have had in thirty-five years of buying and selling real estate. We were guided through the entire end-to end process, and felt Team Deininger was with us every step of the way – and even after our purchases, Pete has followed up to make sure we are happy with how everything is working out. Pete and his team are professional, caring and committed to not only making the buying experience as smooth as possible, but also to sharing in the excitement of achieving a dream home or business. As new residents to the area, we valued Pete’s local knowledge, contacts and his efforts to make us feel welcome and to integrate us into his wide network across the community. Pete and his team are positive, forward thinking and are at the leading edge of property market innovation and technology, whilst at the same time offering a personal hands -on approach."

I wholeheartedly recommend Pete!"

Pete is great to work with, but his team is also amazing. They always remind you of upcoming deadlines and no detail of a deal gets overlooked. It is so much more fun and relaxing to buy/sell a property when you trust your realtor. I highly recommend working with Pete!"

"When we first met with Pete, we just wanted to tour Breckenridge for available lots and learn more about the area. We were not thinking of buying. The whole team said we want to be here to help you find a lot now or any time in the future. We found a lot, and they continue to answer all the real estate questions we have on the area and how to design a future house as a rental property and dream retirement home."

"I started working with Pete to sell my condo at Copper Mountain, Colorado on a recommendation of a networking group in my hometown in Minnesota. He and his staff were a delight to work with through the entire process. They all kept me informed of every detail from contract to showing and closing. There were a huge amount of showings compared to our previous realtors. I attribute that to their marketing and networking skills. It is difficult to find a group of efficient, thorough, polite and grateful people working together for their customer in the Mountains but the Breck Life Group are those folks and I couldn't be more pleased with the result."

"I would highly recommend Pete and his team without hesitation! Everything about them throughout the entire process was exceptional - from helping me understand the process at the beginning through to making sure I was prepared and had a good understanding of what to expect at closing, along with top notch communication along the way. I couldn't be more satisfied with The Breck Life Group!!!"

"Pete and his team did a fantastic job in helping me sell my condo. His solid knowledge of the market led to his recommendation that I raise the asking price of my condo by 10%. With this price increase I still received an offer within 6 hours of listing! He also did a great job in working with me as an out of town seller. He helped to coordinate condo clean out, painting and the closing with out my having to travel to Summit County. I would definitely recommend Pete to any looking to buy or sell in Summit County."

"We had such a great experience working with Pete at Breck Life Group. We had some complications due to the sale of another property (with a different realtor) and Pete took it all in stride with patience and kindness and really worked with us to make our purchase happen. He helped us find the perfect place for our family and we are so thankful."

"Pete was my agent for a sale of a condo and a new purchase of a home. He made the stressful work of selling and buying a home a very smooth and positive experience. Whenever there were questions, he sought out the answers. His staff is always friendly and professional. He is very professional and dedicated to his clients. Pete makes you feel like you are his only client during your time together, and you are his number one priority. For instance, when you are viewing a home, his attention is with you and the experience in the home. He is not distracted by his cell phone nor answering emails or texts when it is your time to be working together. He is there to answer questions for you, and show you through the home. He will respond to all calls, texts, and emails in a timely manner (when he is not currently with another client). If you want a broker that is willing to research what he doesn't know, drive all over the county in search of the perfect home for you, and makes it a truly personal and positive experience, then Pete is that broker! I'd highly recommend him and will use him again when it is time to buy or sell."

"Without Pete's patience, real estate knowledge, communication and creative problem solving our house would of never been purchased. We were dead in the water on this deal several times for a number of different reasons and with Pete's guidance we were able to navigate through all of the issues and solve them one by one. I'm not sure another realtor would of stayed with us throughout this entire process to make this purchase a reality. He truly does care about his clients and that alone makes Pete a unique real estate agent and a great person!"

"I have now bought two properties through Pete. Both times, Pete was a pleasure to work with and brought the deal to successful close. Pete had demonstrated extensive knowledge of the local markets and was able to provide sound advice and help me find just the right fit for my vacation/investment property in Summit County. Highly recommended!"

"I've purchased 3 properties through Pete and each transaction has been a wonderful experience! Pete listened to my needs and found properties that met all of my requirements. He worked within my hectic schedule to find time for property showings and was always available to answer questions about the local market, rental potential, and contract terms. He truly cares about his clients and is a great advocate to have in your corner! I highly recommend Pete to anyone searching for property in or around Summit County!"

"We purchased our first condo in Breckenridge under the guidance of Pete Deininger. Our overall experience was truly awesome in every aspect. I have been involved in agricultural real estate business in Iowa for over 35 years. In all my years of working with realtors and real estate professionals, I have never worked with a realtor as knowledgeable and responsive as Pete. We have since sold our first condo and purchased our second one using Pete again. We have never been disappointed with his expertise and service! He is one of the best realtors and professionals that Breckenridge and the Summit county area has to offer. I have the upmost trust and respect for Pete as a professional and an individual."

"I've bought and sold almost 50 properties over the years and have had many, many experiences with Realtors. In short, Pete Deininger is at the very top of the class! Most realtors are average, at best, but not Pete. He is highly skilled at his craft and is an extremely rare breed of professionalism and skill. Hire Pete, you won't be sorry."

"We purchased a condo in Breck (Los Pinos) with Pete in January, 2015. That was the best experience with a broker we've ever had. Pete listened to our criteria and combined that with his local market knowledge so our time looking at condos was very efficient. He was a great source of advice on renting the condo which we've done. Finally he lined us up with a fantastic mortgage provider and generally stayed on top of the buying process so it was the least painful we've ever experienced. Pete simply did a fantastic job for us and I can't recommend him strongly enough."

"We bought our condo in August 2015. We live in Miami and were attempting to set up appointments remotely. We contacted several real estate agents in Breckenridge (one of whom did not even bother to return phone calls or emails). Pete even though he was out of town, he took the time to respond to our email and we made plans to set up appointments. We conveyed our wish list including our price point to Pete. When we rolled in to town, we only had 1 day to view properties, so our time was limited. We ending up finding a property that "needed a lot of work". We agreed to put in an offer. We left town the next day to continue on our road trip. Pete kept us up to date during the entire process and responded to texts and emails promptly. He listened to our concerns. We ended up with a condo that we completely renovated and now have a place to call home while in Colorado! We were extremely pleased with the process and our experience with Pete and we plan to use him again when we purchase our next property in Breckenridge."

"I know what you are thinking: "no one is that good" right? The answer is "wrong"! Pete is REALLY that good. He knows the location, how the mountain properties historically react in the present economy, and what the market will stand. Our personal process purchasing 2 homes was seamless. He guided us though and kept the process on track involving all parties. On top of that we never had an issue reaching him at any time we needed information. After purchasing our homes, Pete was still available providing contacts for design, maintenance issues, and even where to go for fun and exploration in the area. Pete was able to negotiate the price within our range with everything we wanted to be included. I seem to be gushing on but Pete is not only truly a great real estate professional but he is a genuine good person and is interested in his clients."

He is always willing to help out and really has his customers in mind all the time! We would do business with him again and again and highly recommend him for your real estate needs!"

"Pete's great. Dropped everything (and missed a powder day) to show us around. So we bought. Then we became his crazy selling clients....And he still had to drop a few more powder days for us to get the property sold. Now we're back to being crazy buyers again....and Pete always has time for us!"

"Pete is really good to work with. As far as any real estate dealings in Breck or Summit County we are using Pete. He knows Breck well. He seems to know a lot about the different properties and locations. We very much appreciated that he listened to what we were interested in and what we were looking for. What we really liked was that he presented a good deal of info and facts and didn’t try to bias our thinking. He let us determine from our perspective and based on our wants whether something was good, bad, or otherwise. If there was something that, based on his knowledge and perspective, was a real red flag he told us. And if we asked him his opinion he was very straight forward and honest. Pete knows a lot of people in the Breck. After our purchase we asked his recommendation for folks to do different kinds of work for us such as plumbing, electrical, and carpet cleaning. This was invaluable as everyone he recommended that we used has been really good. We will say it again, any future real estate dealings in Breck we are using Pete. We have and will continue to recommend Pete to those we know that are looking for a place in Breck. Couple of notes regarding the rankings: 1) scored Communication a 5 not because it was always “immediate” rather because it was timely, and 2) we did not feel we could respond to the Negotiating Skills question as we did not directly observe this (please know that we ultimately purchased our property at the price we were looking for)."

"Pete is the most knowledgeable realtor in the Breck area. He has connections and perspectives that give you an edge as you consider your purchase. We have not been a seller in Breck at this point, but if we ever are selling, Pete will be our “go to” person. He has certainly gained our trust!"

"About 9 years ago my wife and I stopped by an open house in downtown Breckenridge on a whim. It was our first visit to Breck but we had already fallen in love with the Breck Life. The open house was hosted by Pete. Right away, I could tell Pete had a strong passion for Breck and a deep knowledge of its residential market. Over the next several years we continued to return to Breck while staying in contact with Pete. I’m sure I asked way to many questions but Pete never let on. He continued to answer questions and provide intel on the market. With Pete’s help we purchased a home in Breckenridge in 2015. His guidance resulted in one of the easiest home purchases we had completed (we been through a number of them). If you are considering a home purchase in The Breckenridge area, call Pete. You’ll be glad you did."

"Pete helped us when we decided to buy a cabin in Breck about 6 years ago. His service was spectacular and he continues to check-in with us on a regular basis to see how we are doing and if there is anything he can do. His knowledge of the local market is outstanding and I will definitely use Pete again the next time we are going to be active in the Breck real estate market."
