CRESTED BUTTE SECOND HOMEOWNERS
My wife Francene and have been full-time residents here for over 13 years - but we lived in Texas for 25 years and were Crested Butte Second Homeowners for 10 years prior to that. My brother & sister-in-law Rick & Ingrid, and Francene's brother Ed & sister-in-law Carrie are Crested Butte Second Homeowners.
I appreciate the tremendous value of the Crested Butte Second Homeowners who are a big part of the engine of the local economy, and who's benevolence has made big impacts in the community. A few examples:
- The Adaptive Sports Center building
- The Center for the Arts building - "92% of funding came from Crested Butte Second Homeowners" - Jillian Liebl - Executive Director
- The Community Foundation of the Gunnison Valley
Crested Butte is a great Ski Resort Town that would not be what it is today - if not for the Second Homeowner community.
CRESTED BUTTE SECOND HOMEOWNERS ARE SPECIAL

Money is your tool to Create a lifetime of awesome memories, and affords you the opportunity and choice to give back and make an impact.

Knowing what freedom means to you starts with asking yourself … "How can I spend more quality time with my family and friends...?"
Owning a Crested Butte Second Home is a great start!
How Can I Help You?
I caught this very rare Palamino Trout in the photo in the East River here in Crested Butte. Catching any trout in live water with a fly rod requires proper equipment, preparation, expertise, knowledge, skill, attention to detail and patience. I have never caught a fish when I wasn't fishing - pretty basic, but you have to have your line in the water...
Valuable lessons that I also apply in my real estate business and all that I do.
If you are ready to begin your search for your Crested Butte dream home, or you are considering selling - I would appreciate the opportunity to earn your business - and be your Crested Butte Real Estate Agent.
