We have used Tony in previous transactions and have in every way been very satisfied with his professionalism and his knowledge of real estate in the Summit area of Colorado. Should anyone ever request a referral for an agent in the Summit area we would not hesitate to recommend Tony. Your firm is fortunate to have such a super agent. No, we are not related to Tony!

Tony O'Brien was great to work with, even though ours was a small transaction, he spent time to explain everything to us and scheduled various showings of the property. Despite being the buyers, and Tony being the seller's agent, we felt we could trust him completely, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Began our interaction with your agency after seeing the listing on line. Contact our agent by phone and she was very professional and Knowledgeable. Since she was out of town, she arranged to have us meet Tony at the facility and show us the condo. He was very professional and spent the necessary time answering all our questions. Enjoyed working with him very much, even though it was a very small transaction, he treated it, as if it was a major purchase! Thank you!

We have owned a unit at St. James Place 307-5 for 30+ years. Tony O'Brien was our purchasing and selling agent.....a rarity to have the same over many decades. He is outstanding, especially during our recent sale of this unit. Our family has visited the Beav over 30 times. Our kids and recently grandchildren have loved our experience with so many memories at the St. James. Tony has always remembered and treated us with utmost professionalism! We will miss our regular 5th week visits.....but someday hoping to return to Beaver Creek.
