Testimonials

Our family has owned a property in Vail for 52 years. During that time period I received numerous brochures and marketing materials from various brokers. Led Gardner and SSF were names that kept coming up. I did my due diligence and chose Led. I did not regret my decision. Led was the ultimate real estate professional. He was calm, knowledgeable, experienced, timely. He knew exactly where the right selling price was. Based on his local contacts, we were able secure a sale acceptable to everyone involved. The property was over 50 years old and had a few moguls to navigate. Led handled it with ease. I highly recommend Led and his team.

Without a doubt, Led Gardner would be at the top of my list of superior performers. In marketing a multi-million dollar property for me, Led took total control and responsibility. His knowledge of the market, combined with his good instincts and the ability to cultivate buyer interest resulted in a sale at a price that was fair for both the buyer and the seller. Without a doubt, Led worked for and earned his commission. For anyone needing a highly motivated, hard-working, honest and ethical professional in real estate, I would urge you to consider Led Gardner.

I have bought and sold a few properties in my time and Led Gardner, hands down, is the best professional I’ve had the pleasure to work with. His devotion to detail, knowledge of the market, and consistent updated correspondence with me was gratifying. He is at the top of the list for being the best. Thank you.

I’ve known Led Gardner personally for 25 years. Led is as much a quality person professionally as he is personally. Led was the listing side of my sale transaction as well as representing the Buyers. Easy going personally and always on it professionally is as good as you can hope for. This was a successful transaction for all parties. Thanks, Led!

Led was always available every step of the way. Most importantly he was there for most showings to give and get any information the buyer asked for. During the family emergency, his wife Connie filled in superbly. What a team. He was candid with me about pricing and making a deal happen. During the pandemic, he wiped down banisters and made sure lookers wore masks. I felt very secure to come home as I was living in the house until it sold. He walked me through everything even to the title company for closing. My second sale in the valley with Led. You can have complete confidence that he is the best realtor in the valley to list your house with.

Led was recommended to us by Steve Hawkins, the manager of the Mountain Haus. We were delighted working with him, from start to finish. Granted, it is a "seller's market" in Vail now, but we feel Led helped us maximize the sales price, which was his job. His honesty, integrity, excellent communication skills, and responsiveness made the transaction very smooth. I would unhesitatingly recommend him to a friend.

I have become well acquainted with Led over the last seven years as a real estate broker and now dear friend. We have consummated seven successful real estate transactions together, including Beaver Creek, Bachelor Gulch, Vail, and Red Sky Ranch, and I anticipate there will be more in the future. His communication and interpersonal relationships are unmatched, and his representation on behalf of his clients is exceptional. Led has tremendous drive and maturity. He has a strong commitment and sincere interest in positively helping people, and wins the confidence and trust of others in a quiet and unassuming manner. Led has been involved in a number o...

Led is a pro as well as the entire team at Slifer, Smith, and Frampton. I would highly recommend your firm for any type of property.

Smoothest purchase I’ve ever experienced. Everything from video and FaceTime tours to Remote signing I didn’t even see the unit until after I closed but I felt quite comfortable with the process and it worked out very well.

Appreciate all the knowledge and professionalism that Led Gardner demonstrated.
