What do Clients Say?
We have had the opportunity to work with BJ a number of times during the last twenty years in the Aspen-Snowmass market. Throughout this period we have always been impressed with her knowledge of the market, professionalism in dealing with ALL parties involved in the transaction and, most importantly, her ability to bring the engagements to a successful conclusion. Most recently we asked BJ to represent us on the sale of our house in The Pines. BJ, her team and her firm were outstanding in not only achieving our economic objective but also made the process as easy as possible. This was especially important since the house was not occupied full time. There was no request too big or too small for BJ and her team to handle throughout the sale process. Like many businesses, technology is impacting how properties are bought and sold. Despite these changes, we believe BJ brought great value to our recent sale which is why we have engaged her, and have engaged her, multiple times over recent years. We have yet to be disappointed. Robert and Norman

BJ Adams is one of, if not the, best realtors with whom we’ve worked over the last many years. She listens to her clients and understands their needs. She finds properties that fit those needs. In particularly difficult situations, she is determined to obtain the best result possible for her clients and will not give up. She is one of the last of the “old school” realtors who put their clients first. We highly recommend her. Anne and Frank

From the first time we met BJ in 1998, we KNEW we had met the realtor for us. While looking for a large condo, she wisely steered us to a large, neglected house that became our home for the next 28 years! We have never met a more thoughtful, dedicated, and honest broker and her team continues those fine traits. With their substantial help, we successfully sold our property to a great family. Over the years, BJ has become our "SBFF" - our Snowmass Best Friend Forever. She is MUCH more than simply the best realtor in the Valley - she is a friend, community legend, and a special person. As that Tina Turner song goes: "Simply the Best"! Michael

Nothing but praise for BJ and her team! With her many years of experience, BJ has deep knowledge of the Snowmass/Aspen market and is very grounded in alternative options and approaches to finding the right situation. Impeccably professional at all times, completely trustworthy, and seems to work 24/7. Follow-up is perfect. She keeps in touch with all players as situations adjust or change, so she is the first to know what might be happening. After closing, BJ remains available and goes above and beyond to ensure that everything goes smoothly. Could not ask for a better partner! I am a big fan both professionally and personally. Angela

We first worked with BJ on the sale of our Snowmass condo in 2021. The condo sold the day it hit the market and we were so pleased with her work that we chose her to sell our Aspen condo in 2024. Her in-depth knowledge of the Aspen market was invaluable, not only in understanding its unique characteristics, but also with resources and connections. Every aspect of the process was exemplary -- staging, photography, pricing, arranging showings, deep understanding of the contracts and keeping current on legal changes, and providing sound advice. She and her fantastic team were always immediately responsive and were a true pleasure to work with. We highly recommend her. Jerry and Susan
