When we listed our home with Happy I was a real estate broker and member of the Vail Board for decades. Based on the knowledge we had, we chose Happy with absolutely no concerns about her integrity, qualifications, or market knowledge. And yes, she sold our home as expected.

We had an extraordinary experience selling our home with Happy and Emily. The listing was up for a very short time before we accepted an offer that was very near our asking price. All of the open houses and showings were very professionally handled. I would recommend them for anyone wishing to sell or purchase a home in our valley!

It's so very nice to feel like you are important to her as she always makes sure to get back to you whether it's a text or a phone call, she ALWAYS got back to us and it meant the world! Would highly recommend her to anyone :) thank you, Carolyn and Tom Kooiman

We had an excellent experience working with Happy Power and her team. We had planned on listing our home for sale in May or June 2016. At Happy's suggestion, and because of her experience in the Singletree real estate market, we decided to list our home in late February 2016. Happy realized that there were very few listings in our price range at that time and that our house would receive maximum attention from prospective buyers. Because of Happy's knowledge of market values, we listed our house at a higher price than my wife and I had thought was feasible. Within three weeks we had competing offers at a price level higher that we had anticipated. Happy handled the negotiations in a very professional, competent manner and we sold our house extremely quickly. We recommend Happy and her team at Slifer to any prospective buyer or seller.

Working with Happy was a perfect fit for us. Our pace through the property viewing process was understood and appreciated. We never felt pushed but Happy knew what was important for our family and found properties that fit our needs. Once we found the right place she guided us patiently through the closing process. She’s simply a great person who loves people and real estate.

We used Happy Power to both sell our existing home and to purchase a new home. It was a challenging assignment as we wanted to 1) sell our existing home at a fair price, 2) buy a new, larger home but not before we sold our existing home, 3) enter into a two month lease-back arrangement with the new owner of our existing home to give us time to find and close on a new home. All of this was to be done while we were out of town! Result: We had three full price offers in the first week our house was listed. We sold the house and obtained a two month lease-back from the selected buyer. We purchased a new home at a price well below the county’s assessed value and moved in at the end of our lease-back period which enabled efficient execution of various repairs and upgrades. As if this weren’t enough, Happy personally managed hiring and overseeing the contractors necessary to address the issues arising from our original home inspection report. This impressive listing of accomplishments did not happen with luck. Happy worked tirelessly to get it done, seven days a week at all hours of the day. She is responsive, reliable and knows Vail Valley like no one else. Whether you are buying or selling a home in this area, if you don’t select Happy as your realtor, you are missing out on the best realtor there is.

Home shopping in the Valley was enjoyable and successful because of the power house team of Happy and Jackie. Not only are they knowledgeable and professional but they are also patient and fun to be around. They treat you with respect and make you feel like family. With their diligence we were able to find and negotiate a property that fit our needs, in our time frame and at the right price.

Our experience was fantastic. Happy understood what we wanted for our family from space, layout, and location. She patiently worked with us to find the perfect spot.

Happy and Lisa were fantastic to work with. We worked with them from out of state which complicated our buying process, but they accommodated all our scheduling needs. Always responsive and highly service oriented, they answered our myriad questions quickly and thoroughly. They listened to us and developed a great appreciation for our likes and dislikes. They shared their extensive knowledge of the Vail valley greatly helping us understand the pros and cons of various options. They have a huge network of quality service providers from handymen to decorators to recommend which saved us immeasurable time. And, they are just really nice people.

It was a pleasure working with Happy Power. She is highly knowledgeable, patient, and very supportive. I did not feel pressured as a buyer, as I have with other agents. Instead I felt supported in the selection, negotiation, and closing process for the largest purchase of my life.

We were recommended to Happy by a business associate who had worked with Happy. Our experience was superb from start to finish. There are so many moving parts when looking for a second home, negotiating offers, thoroughly reading contracts, inspection reports and more. A lot of these details had to be long distance as our permanent residence is in Dallas. Trust is a huge factor in a realtor/home buyer relationship and we felt that Happy was trustworthy. Happy was always patient with our desires to make a deliberate decision on the home we purchased. She worked very hard on our behalf to complete the sale. We can honestly say our professional relationship was great with Happy but we can also say we count her as a new friend in our Singletree neighborhood!

We have known Happy Power for many years, and had great expectations when it was time for us to sell our Edwards, Co home with Happy as our Listing Broker. She is honest, thorough, hard-working, and in control of the contractual details to get the deal completed. Her pleasant demeanor remains constant no matter the difficulties that arise while selling and closing the deal. Happy knows the Singletree neighborhood very well as both a resident and a Broker. We definitely recommend contacting her when ready to buy or sell in Singletree, Edwards, Colorado. We are proud to call Happy our friend!
