“We thoroughly enjoyed working with Trudi and highly recommend her to anyone who may be considering a home sale or purchase. Her knowledge of the Roaring Fork Valley -- and particularly our neighborhood -- was invaluable, and helped ensure that we were competitive in our pricing and listing strategy

Our working relationship with Trudi began several years ago, when we moved out of the Valley and decided to rent out our home. She became our property manager and very successfully kept the home maintained and rented with no interruptions for nearly five years. When the time came to sell our home, Trudi very expertly navigated the market, helping us determine what improvements were needed to attract buyers and marketing the property to her extensive network of contacts. This network includes dozens of local vendors, who gave us favorable rates and excellent work because of Trudi.

Trudi paid very personal, careful attention to our property, and her husband was an expert handyman for a number of repairs over the years. We felt very comfortable in her hands and knew she was capable of handling any emergency or issue that could arise. 

In short, Trudi is a gem. We owe her a debt of gratitude and consider her a great asset to the Roaring Fork community.” - Matthew and Kristen Loden, Canada.

  “Ours was a very hard property to sell but Trudi held our hand every step of the way.  I relied on her and called for advice frequently.  Trudi was always there for us.  The result was a successful sale.  Who could ask for more?

   I will seek out Trudi if our next property is in her area, if not, I will once again ask for her expertise in helping me find someone of her quality.

“Trudi Watkins-Johnson is a dynamo when it comes to real estate.  She develops detailed market analysis for the property.  Her energy and enthusiasm carry thru to the end on all deals.  Trudi pursues the details relentlessly from start to finish.  When we sold my mother’s house there was a deal in place the same day the house was listed.  You can’t go wrong using Trudi for your real estate needs.” John Filippone, Carbondale, CO
