“Cam took over a property that had been listed for nearly five years and sold it within months. He was responsive, proactive and a pleasure to work with. In my 40 years in business, I have not worked with a more professional real estate agent. I recommend him very, very highly.”

“My husband and I have nothing but wonderful things to say about our experience working with Ben, Shelly, and the entire Boyd and Berend team. Ben feels more like our friend than our realtor. From the beginning, he genuinely wanted to understand us as people to determine the right fit for us. He offered great suggestions of complexes that met our needs, and we never felt any pressure. Once we decided to make an offer, Ben provided excellent advice throughout the negotiating process and put us in touch with a fantastic lender and inspector so we could close on schedule. Ben's attention to detail and communication was on point, and he sent us weekly emails on the most critical tasks to focus on to make sure that we closed on time. Ben also provided great recommendations in the Steamboat community and even took us skate skiing, an extra special treat! We recommend Ben without hesitation. He is exceptional at his job, wise beyond his years, and a lovely person.”

“We chose Ben of the Boyd & Berend Group to list our luxury home in Steamboat Springs. His advice was spot-on, his demeanor calm and professional, with a quick smile and friendliness combined. He and the entire Boyd&Berend team had great ideas re the best way to show our home. We were under contract within three days of listing. Of course, not every sale will be this quick, but we attribute the speed and ease in large part to the hard work and effort of Ben, Shelly, Alexa and the entire team! We recognized that the skills Ben used to be an Olympian, and more importantly all around great person, were clearly exhibited by his ability to navigate this sometimes stressful experience of buying/selling homes with ease, knowledge, perseverance and integrity. Bravo to all on the team!”
