TESTIMONIALS
We live in WA state. Kelly helped us with the long-distance sale of our CO property in a very difficult market. She was knowledgeable, straightforward, efficient, and fun to work with. Most importantly, she found us a qualified buyer and worked for a quick closing. We highly recommend Kelly and would work with her again.
Happy Thanksgiving! We're thankful that we met you :-)

Kelly,
Thank you to Kelly, Realtor extraordinaire! Not only did you sell my home in a timely manner, you combined and engaged your expertise with a caring heart. Step by step, your sensitive advice enriched with truth challenged me to finally sell my home.

Kelly has represented me over the last three years and has completed three separate transactions for me. She was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was very responsive to my questions, concerns, etc. and I would, without hesitation, recommend her to anyone looking for a truly hardworking, outstanding agent.

Kelly,
Just a somewhat belated THANK YOU for all your efforts in selling our Enclave townhome. Your advice about the market and pricing was extremely sage and the sale went off OK thanks to your hard work. You were extremely professional as well as a friend to us and it is appreciated. You obviously are knowledgeable about the Durango market and especially about the real estate in the Dalton Ranch area.
Once again, thank you for a job well done!
Bill and Barbara Daney
Kelly thank you very much, you are a great Realtor and human being. What you have done for me over the last few years is fantastic. Over and over you went well beyond what you needed to do, so that you could help me. Thanks again...when you are meeting new clients feel free to give them my number :)
John LeSage
Thank you so much for making this process fun and enjoyable and so easy. You really taught me how much more a Realtor does then “show properties”. You have been a wealth of knowledge for us as we convert from Midwest lifestyle to our dream life. Please call on us ever in your times of need.
Always, The Pinkerton’s
Kelly is not your average Realtor. She is a true professional who takes care to understand her clients' needs. She was able to sell our golf community residential land in a very difficult real estate market by finding the right buyer and brokering a deal that worked for everyone. We would work with Kelly again and again because she understands the market, is able to identify the right properties for her clients and brings a strong business sense about what constitutes a sound investment.

Kelly,
Thank you for all the time you spent helping us locate our retirement property. You really went above and beyond and we very much appreciate the excellent service you provided.
Terry & Diana Snodgrass
Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are golden…helping us find our home in Colorado and now helping us find a Realtor in Albuquerque who sold our house in a matter of days. We have come to know you as contagiously enthusiastic, positive and energetic doer and mover with a big heart. You helped us during this uncertain stock market time to move on with our lives here in magical colorful Colorado. We will always recommend you both as a competent brilliant professional real estate agent and as a great human being who Richard and I consider a friend.
Sandra & Richard
Kelly worked with us for more than a year while we waited for our previous home to sell in a very difficult market. As we changed our minds about price, location and specific needs she always rolled gracefully and graciously with the punches. Communication was excellent and easy. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anybody!

Dear Kelly,
I have been meaning to write you a big thank you for several weeks now. I think that you’ll understand why I haven’t, what with selling our old and then buying and moving into our new place. We feel fortunate to have sold our house as quickly as we did. Kris and I chalk that success up to your efforts. We clearly made the best decision to list with you. PleasE know that we appreciate your hard work and constant attention to our demands. But more than anything else we appreciate your honesty and integrity. Working with you was a pleasure. You’re the best! You will be the first person we call if or when we are ready to sell or buy again. Moreover, I’ll pass your name along to friends if they find themselves in need of a buying or selling rep. Stop by sometime to see what we have done with the new house Have a great ski season.

Working with Kelly was great. Coming from out-of-state we were concerned that we wouldn't get our house hunt done in the short time we had, but we needn't have worried. Our search with Kelly was organized, efficient, and enjoyable. We got a great house that was everything we wanted. We couldn't be happier with our experience.

"When I decided Durango was the location for my next business office, I contacted several Realtors to help me find a home/office. Over the years of buying and selling property, I've learned the incredible value of having a good Realtor on my side. Kelly Kniffin was by far and away the most professional and responsive Realtor in the area. She listened to what I wanted and diligently searched for the perfect deal. Now I happily live on 3rd Avenue, having made the best purchase of a lifetime. I highly recommend Kelly to anyone needing a Realtor who is intimately familiar with the area's local market, the economy and the best deals with mortgage lenders. Kelly went the extra mile to serve my needs fairly and enthusiastically. I am grateful for Kelly's continued support in other real estate matters, and to be living in the beautiful community of Durango."
Gregory Register, Architect
We would like to let you know how grateful we are for the excellent job that Kelly Kniffin did to sell our house as well as help us buy our new home. Not only is Kelly thorough in her work and professional, she is extremely personable so that we felt at ease as we worked through the buying and selling process.
We originally contacted Kelly when we saw a listing we were interested in. Not only did she promptly reply to our e-mail inquiry (in less than 30 minutes!) answering all of the questions posed about the property, she also e-mailed us a floor plan and property disclosure that was available for the listing.
When we met Kelly, there was no question that she was the agent for us. She was thoroughly prepared with current market information and provided answers to questions we had about the property during our showing within a few hours.
When we made an offer that was accepted by the sellers, we knew that we had to move quickly to list our house for sale. Kelly provided exceptional service in helping us accomplish this by expeditiously compiling a current market analysis as well as putting together a beautiful color brochure, getting our property listed in the MLS and having a virtual tour developed. As we began to have showings, Kelly was always quick to get back to us with feedback from the agents of potential buyers.
Kelly was extremely organized as we bought our new home and sold our old one, keeping the process on track through closing. We had peace of mind knowing that Kelly was on top of things and we didn't have to worry about missing any deadlines.
Although we know Kelly represents many clients, with such personalized service she made us feel as if we were her only client. It was refreshing to work with such a dedicated professional who consistently provides excellent customer service. We can't thank her enough for all she did for us. If we were ever to buy or sell another home, we would welcome the opportunity to work with Kelly again and would definitely recommend her to anyone we know considering buying or selling property.
Sincerely,
Mark & Jennifer Latham
Kelly was a joy to work with as we moved through the purchase process. Negotiations for a new home can be difficult at times, and Kelly's professionalism and creative solutions allowed us to buy the home of our dreams! Thanks so much for all your help...now the hard work begins! I must say the brown toilets "as a thing of the past" will remain that way! Somehow I don't think they will fit with our new scheme... Have a great summer! Regards,
Regina & Joe Dunn
Our experience with you was exceptional; you kept everything on track which was essential for us with being out of state, planning our move and starting new jobs. We really appreciate all your efforts and we will refer you to others that are looking to buy here. Thanks so much for everything and stop by sometime when you're in the neighborhood.
Leigh
Kelly helped us find our special get away home under very specific criteria. She was extremely responsive and timely, which assured us that everything was falling into place according to the tight deadlines. Kelly is very professional and friendly which allowed us to instantly feel comfortable that she was the right agent for us.
Chuck & Kim Elliot
Kelly was interviewed as a potential realtor to sell my home in Durango. I interviewed three agents and of the three she was the most prepared, she carefully inspected my property and home, she brought appropriate shoes to walk the property, and she gave me a realistic range for listing my home. All of this was important as it wasn't just a home but an 8 acre rural horse property. She continued to follow up with me after our initial meeting which was another major factor in ultimately selecting her to represent me in the sale of the home.
There were several issues with the property which were holdovers from my original purchase. Kelly spent a lot of time researching these issues and helping us accurately assess what was needed to have them resolved. There were also issues which came up during the buyers' home inspection which Kelly helped us resolve quickly. She has a good source of service people to help resolve inspection issues and this was greatly appreciated. She continued to keep me and my husband updated on what was going on even though I had moved out of state prior to closing. The closing went smoothly and we were very grateful to have the sale accomplished quickly and relatively smoothly. I would recommend Kelly to anyone interested in selling their home or buying a home in the Durango area.
Cynthia & David Malmer
Kelly is a very thoughtful and professional agent that will go far beyond the call of duty to help her clients. She is very efficient and direct. I felt comfortable knowing that all my questions and concerns were answered and there was excellent follow-up. We were from out of town and needed the type of support she gave us while trying to buy a condo. Great job, great person, great experience.
BJ Page
My husband and I are now the proud owners of a large parcel in the Elkhorn Ranch area of Durango, due in no small part to our luck in finding Kelly to work with us. We live in San Diego, CA and have looked for a number of years, in a number of states, for a larger parcel to build a retirement home on. We found Durango more by happenstance than design, but as soon as we drove into the town we knew it was home. We met Kelly Kniffin initially while doing some heavy internet surfing, researching the area and available properties. She responded to our general query EMail and continued the EMail discussion, providing all the information we could ask for. She was the only realtor we contacted this way that continued to talk to us via EMail, something that made all the difference to us. In person, Kelly made us feel entirely taken care of. She went above and beyond (even climbing over a raging creek to show us the back of our lot) carefully and patiently providing every shred of information we wanted (and we asked for a lot), showing us the town and helping us focus on what areas held parcels that met our needs and desires. She hand held us carefully through the purchase process, something we sincerely appreciated since it had to be done remotely. Kelly is energetic, thorough, knowledgeable, very professional and a lot of fun. We highly recommend her services to anyone interested in moving to this lovely area.
Sincerely,
Erin and Michael Contour
Kelly,
You took my listing with a smile and without reservation in a difficult market. Then you proceeded to sell my home in less than two weeks to my pleasant surprise. In the future when enlisting the services of a real estate broker I will use your demeanor and actions as a model of perfection in the industry. I am quite grateful you were around when I really needed you.
Sincerely,
Tim
