Put Our Real Estate Networks to Work for You

I have known George Harvey for over 12 years as a Real Estate Broker and as a personal friend. George has represented me in numerous real estate transactions in the Telluride region, both as a seller and as a purchaser. He has always demonstrated the utmost care and professionalism in property selection, contract negotiation and attention to details.

We want to thank you for the outstanding service you gave us in the sale of our Telluride property. When we first decided to market our property, it was difficult to make a choice from the many firms that wanted to represent us. You were recommended by a trusted friend who was a very satisfied former customer of yours. There was never a time when we doubted anything you did - not even for a moment. You made it clear to us that you were serious about selling our property. We appreciate everything you've done for us. We want you to feel free to use us as a reference. We are forever grateful.

– Nicole and Jerald Davitz

In 1985, Telluride was a small, yet-to-be-discovered wonderland, the most beautiful spot in Colorado. At that time, there was no gondola, no airport, no fax machines, no internet, no cell phone service, no Oprah or Tom Cruise. We had been coming to Telluride for years, summer after summer, to marvel at the beauty of the mountains and hang out at Floradoras with Howie and meet new friends. Our dream was to live in this magical place, and we purchased a lot on the sunny side of the canyon right below Tomboy Road, near what used to be Keith Carradine's blue "barn house." The view from our property was spectacular, overlooking the town of Telluride, Bridelveil Falls and Bear Creek, absolutely breathtaking in the Fall. Our dream never materialized for us, and in 2003 we put our property up for sale. We hired two different brokers, but after a few years down the road, neither one had found us a buyer. Then we met George Harvey. George uncovered the problem that was scaring potential buyers away. There was an parking easement attached to our land which involved a list of issues which George tirelessly worked through on our behalf, keeping us informed and updated with the process of straightening out the legal paperwork that had never been properly done in the beginning when we first purchased the land back in 1985. In 2008, Telluride was not exempt from the economic slump, but George perservered and found a buyer for our property. We will always be grateful to George and his wife Becky for their dedication and hard work in getting the job done! Thank you George - very, very much.

Thank you to you and your team for the help with our real estate purchase in Telluride. I truly believe your experience and relationships in the Telluride market were the reason the transaction reached a successful conclusion. Marlene and I appreciated having a real estate broker who only had our needs and interests in mind throughout the transaction. We also appreciated you being a local friend to help with things beyond the real estate deal. You have been instrumental in making Telluride a very comfortable place for us.

I have spent over 20 years as a lawyer specializing in real estate development. I have worked with a lot of brokers and seen a few good ones and a lot of bad ones. Frankly, most of the advice I got from brokers was bad. I can say without hesitation your counsel has been invaluable and your friendship appreciated. I have the highest respect for you and I would be happy to make these same statements to any of your potential clients.

– Henry P. Doggrell, General Counsel, GTx, Inc.
