This was our third real estate transaction with Chris Kopf over the past 12 years, and once again he exceeded our expectations. His pricing strategy was spot onaEUR"we received a full-price offer in just 10 days. His marketing was exceptional and showcased our home beautifully, generating immediate interest from qualified buyers. Chris is knowledgeable, professional, responsive, and truly understands the Crested Butte market. After three successful transactions, we can confidently say there is no one we would trust more with our real estate needs. We highly recommend Chris Kopf to anyone buying or selling in the area. Thank you, Chris, for another outstanding result!
Chris was great, he is diligent and detail-oriented. He does his research and is willing to answer any and all questions at any time of day or night. He is a hard worker and came highly recommended. He did not disappoint!
Chris is a true professional in an industry too often lacking. He is always on top of the market, is deeply connected in the community and has a very balanced, conscience approach to all things small and large, simple or complex, regardless of where you are at in the process. Chris works very hard to keep everything going in the right direction, is very accessible and responsive, and is always genuine, patient and forthright in his communications and interactions. I'd highly recommend Chris to anyone in the market buying or selling Real Estate in the Crested Butte area.
Chris did a great job assisting me with the sale of my office space. He was very knowledgeable about the value of the space and therefore got me substantially more than anyone else I had talked with. He's a true professional and I strongly recommend him. He's the guy!
Chris helped us sell our home in Almont this summer. He was very knowledgeable and a terrific marketer! He really knew how to spotlight the best features of our home. We especially appreciated the YouTube video he created. Chris was easy to work with and quite patient with us. We would highly recommend!
We are so thankful that we found Chris Kopf to help us purchase a home in Crested Butte. He knows the greater Crested Butte market better than anyone else, and also does an amazing job of tracking and presenting market data (ask him for a copy). Hes even written a book on buying a second home! Chris is intelligent and practical and, just as important, hes honest and transparent. We did much of the negotiating and vetting of the home remotely, and Chris was highly involved and responsive throughout the process. We are very happy with the second home we purchased with him, and we are now happy to call him a neighbor and a friend.
First for those that skim - We could not have been more thankful for Chris Kopf. What a wonderful agent, person, and experience does matter. You will not regret working with Chris. To that end, when we first approached Chris on our new to us now home, he was super helpful and very upfront with all the pertinent details needed to move forward here in Crested Butte. The decision on the purchase, was relegated to us asking to see the home numerous times. Even after all of that during a healthy snow season, Chris was there with a smile, accommodating and had answers or went back and got them. He even went into the dark crawlspace for us. Above and beyond knowledge of the real estate he is responsible for in my opinion is paramount and part of the profession. Afterwards, A few weeks later we decided it was a go for us and he made the transactions so seamless that frankly, we only needed to get ready to move. This has not always been our experience in this valley or in other locations. Thank You Chris!
We are thankful to have Chris Kopf handle our real estate needs, again, in Crested Butte, CO. Chris listed and sold a lot for us in rural Gunnison County in June of 2023. When considering to list our home in downtown Crested Butte, we looked to Chris for his guidance and experience in marketing, showing and eventually closing on the sale of our home in March 2024. Continue to highly recommend Chris Kopf. His knowledge and passion about the Crested Butte/Gunnison Valley region are unsurpassed.
Chris did a fantastic job helping us find the ideal lot for us to build a home in Crested Butte. We could not be more pleased. On one hand there is the ?real estate? component to what he did? which is great experience, professionalism and market insight. However, that is an incomplete description of what Chris did for us. He was (and is) a valued and well-connected advisor. He connected us with our legal representation, a well testing company, a soil testing company and an architecture firm. Chris really went the extra mile for us. As an example, the day before the well testing company was to perform water tests, CB was hit with an snow storm, which blocked access to the well. Chris knew the timing of this test was important and he drove to the lot and hand shoveled an area so the testing company could gain access to the well. Exceptional! We could not be more pleased to recommend Chris to anyone buying or selling property in CB.
Chris represented us in buying a home in Crested Butte. He was especially helpful to me and my husband because we conducted all of the process long distance. We felt such confidence knowing that Chris was actually in CB, not only guiding us but personally taking care of every detail that would have otherwise required us to physically be there. His knowledge and experience in Crested Butte eased any stress we may have had during the complicated process of purchasing a home in Colorado while living in Texas. Chris was the BEST!!
Chris will always have our trust, respect, loyalty, and gratitude. At every chance he went above and beyond any normal agent expectations. Having done dozens of real estate transactions in the past, I can say with confidence that Chris is among the very best of the best in any market. In 2020 he helped us acquire a townhome with the intention of staying there for a long time. We were pleasantly surprised by an addition to our family and decided to move back to Austin where we would be closer to family. Chris supported our sale preparation end-to-end including helping us identify the exact renovations to make, securing rock-solid contractor and design partnerships, and even helping oversee the work as it was being done. As a cherry on top, we had an issue on our side that left us with a 300 pound piece of exercise equipment in the home on closing day. We were 950 miles away and it would have been more than a little difficult to handle such a short timeframe. Chris didn?t balk for an instant and simply found some folks to help, put in the back of his truck, and within two hours found a happy home for it. Chris lives this ethos of service in a profound way. On a final note: the financial aspect of real estate is almost always important for any buyer or seller. In our case, we made exactly the right renovations with his help and went under contract at a considerable gain to us in just a day. With Chris, service meets expertise and financial acumen. He is the ultimate Crested Butte Agent.
Chris Kopf If you are not using Chris Kopf for your real estate needs in Crested Butte, you are making a mistake. The name Chris Kopf is synonymous with Crested Butte real estate and for good reason. Besides being an absolute professional in everything you would expect a real estate agent to be good at, Chris knows everything about, and more importantly, everyone in Crested Butte. When we were selling our condo, he was able to find the perfect buyer, not as much through the usual channels (MLS, realty websites, etc) but through his personal contacts and intimate knowledge of the town and its people. Once the buyer was identified, Chris handled every aspect of the transaction (price, inspections, scheduling, closing details, etc) absolutely seamlessly. We couldn?t be happier with our experience working with Chris. So I?ll say it again, if you?re not using Chris Kopf for your real estate needs in Crested Butte, you are making a mistake!
We met Chris years ago and have stayed in touch all those years until the perfect property for us popped up on one of Chris?s helpful email alerts. Chris called me back quickly, we discussed strategy, and he ran over to the place to get us on a FaceTime video tour. We made an offer that day and closed a month later. There were expected hiccups along the way, but Chris?s experience and calm approach helped us navigate through to a successful purchase. Thanks Chris!
Chris Kopf is a very experienced and professional realtor. He helped us navigate a plat discrepancy that was not a quick and easy fix. He was always very available to us and made a fairly complex transaction go along nicely. Since we are out of state buyers he was willing to help us in any way which made the experience easy and gave me a lot of confidence in making and working through the deal. He gave us a book he published about finding your dream Mountain Home which was very helpful! We can?t say enough great things about Chris and his integrity and honesty. Thanks Chris. Ty and Paige Murray
We sold our home in Crested Butte in the summer of 2020. We could have, and maybe should have, listed it ourselves as we had done in the past successfully, as any home in any condition (ours was a 10 of 10) sold quickly. I digress... Chris has good knowledge of the entire CB area, but a lot of agents do. Things got sideways when the new owners talked their agent (or the other way around?) into buying some of our existing furniture. It quickly devolved into nit-picky negotiations over used furniture. It seemed the other agent ran roughshod over the process. To give Chris some benefit of the doubt, we felt he had taken on too much business at the time (as did most agents, contractors, architects, etc.) and we felt like one of many vs. having a dedicated agent. Recomend? Yeah, why not. Check around with other top agents? Yes. Sell used furniture? Make sure the process is clearly defined, but best to leave that up to furniture sales people.
Chris was super helpful and productive in our buying experience. From showing us houses and weighing the pros and cons of each place to the offer and then the transactional (detailed) process of closing on the house. I highly recommend Chris.
I met Chris many years ago while sitting on a bench & eating ice cream outside Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. During this casual encounter I liked him immediately & kept him in mind as a future realtor. After 20 years in the valley when we finally decided to sell we selected him over several other candidates. The reason was because he was very knowledgeable about the market and presented a well organized marketing plan. We were very happy with Chris & would highly recommend him.
Chris was instrumental in helping us buy our Crested Butte home. We purchased at a time when inventory was very low and once homes were listed they were selling quickly. Chris set us up to get emails on new listings as they came in so we were able to see them as soon as they became available. We found a home we liked and decided to make an offer site unseen, trusting Chris? knowledge about the area and his confidence we would like this home based upon what he knew we were looking for. Chris helped us write the contract, set up the inspection and even went to the home to FaceTime us more details. We are extremely happy with the way Chris handled our home purchase and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home in the Crested Butte area.
Chris Kopf is an expert in Crested Butte / Gunnison County real estate. He is extremely knowledgeable and always willing to help. He is available day or night and really knows the market.
Chris did a very professional job of marketing our property. A very informative description of the property appeared on a regular basis in all the desirable publications. He also kept us informed of market developments and was helpful in the negotiation of our final sales price.
We worked with Chris to buy a second home in Crested Butte. His knowledge of the area was extremely helpful since our primary home is out of state and we weren?t sure which area would be best for us: on the mountain, in town or in Skyland. He was very patient (as we spent 3 years looking for the perfect place for us) and responsive during the entire process ? he made it feel as if we were conducting business in the same town rather than from two different states. Additionally, he is a long-term resident of Crested Butte and is very active so he was able to share that knowledge as we were researching the various areas. We highly recommend Chris and his team!
Chris Kopf handled our recent sale of land in the Crested Butte area. His sincere professionalism, his display of patience and his extensive background knowledge of the real estate market made the transaction appear seamless. Should we need a realtor in the CB area, one of these days to purchase a property, we would certainly not hesitate to call on Chris Kopf. Tony and Glynis Greening
Chris is the ultimate Real Estate Professional! He knows the Crested Butte market, both from the buyer and seller perspective. He does his homework beforehand and is able to answer questions with confidence. When there is a glitch he is prepared with a calm demeanor and potential solutions, giving us, the clients, the confidence to move forward. Chris was very patient years ago when we were searching for the right property for us. After a good deal of looking in different neighborhoods we decided that a house in town was what we wanted. When our situation changed and we wanted to sell he was instrumental in our selling in a timely fashion at a price that reflected current market trends. It is very important that Chris is also a delightful person. It is a pleasure to work with him.

We find his knowledge, dedication and passion for the region to be unsurpassed. Newcomers to the area will find Chris insights invaluable to making the best personal decision for their needs.

Chris and his team assisted in the purchase of our home in 2013 and the sale of our home in 2019. Chris kept us informed of the local real estate market throughout our time in Crested Butte. We absolutely loved the community and many friendships we made over the years. We listed our home in Skyland in November 2019. Chris and his associate Tammy Armour did a wonderful job positioning our home within the market, professional pictures and description. Despite being two weeks before Thanksgiving when initiated, we had 2 showings and offers within 24 hours. We countered and went into the Title Company 72 hours after listing. Closed withis 3 weeks...Inspections, negotiations, references for movers and Power of Attorney all went swiftly and smoothly. Everyone trusts Chris and his team! They are unflappable and professional and focused on completing the many tasks and keeping everyone informed. Over our lifetimes, my wife and I have purchased/sold over a dozen homes. Our experience with Chris and his Team was by far the most exceptional.
Chris did a great job for us selling our house. He knows the local market, is very responsive and gave wise advice on handling some difficult issues, including getting a backup contract that was vital after the first fell through due to mortgage issues.
Working with Chris was a wonderful experience. We had been looking for a home in the mountains and trying to narrow down our options, when we visited Crested Butte and fell in love with the area. Having little knowledge of the market, we began our research and Chris Kopf?s name rose to the top of the list in terms of top realtors as well as his knowledge of the market. The work that he does to maintain and distribute the Crested Butte market reports is unsurpassed. Chris is a knowledgeable and detail oriented professional and I would not hesitate to recommend him if you are looking for a home in the Crested Butte area.

Whether you are new to Crested Butte or a veteran of the area, its hard to imagine a better real estate resource than Chris and his team. Chris was the perfect partner for our family as we searched for a second home given his wealth of knowledge about all the ins and outs of each potential location (town, mountain, golf course, etc). Chris professionally navigated our all of our needs, and has been super-helpful with post-closing activities and getting us plugged into our new neighborhood now that we are proud Crested Butte homeowners. Cant recommend highly enough.
Chris was great to work with. He made sure to show us every house we were interested in and scheduled showings during our brief visits to Crested Butte. He helped us make informed decisions on each property. Chris has lots of knowledge and contacts in town which is helpful for buying a fixer upper.
Chris has a large presence in the Gunnison Valley, representing both buyers and sellers. Because of his volume and name-recognition, he?s an excellent choice whether you?re a buyer or a seller. His team is organized and responsive, steering clients through the process.
Chris listed our home after many months of soul searching as to when was the best time to list it. Careful analysis of market trends and comps led to a purchase price that truly reflected the value of our home. Before the house was officially on the market Chris negotiated a full list price, all cash, immediate closing which was this morning. His team guided us through each step with answers to all our questions. We would highly recommend anyone looking for a outstanding agent Chris Kopf for their real estate needs - both buying and selling.
Chris did a great job marketing our ski condo in a somewhat difficult segment of the market. He was very responsive and knowledgeable. I recommend him without hesitation!

We loved working with Chris! He did a nice job of understanding our goals through the process and helping us achieve them. He was very responsive, easy to work with, and highly knowledgeable. He dealt with the inevitable bumps along the way very professionally. I will use him again in a heart beat when I need another CB realtor.
Chris as been helping us look for the perfect Mountain home for some time now. Knowing us well, he immediately notified us with a new listing he thought was perfect for us, and he was right!

He was professional, diligent, timely and a complete joy to work with. My husband and I cant recommend him enough! Thank you Chris!

We worked with Chris to sell two lots in Trappers Crossing, just outside of Crested Butte. One of my best experiences ever working with a realtor - professional, knowledgeable, hard worker, and all around a really great guy. If you are looking to buy or sell in Crested Butte I highly recommend him!
Chris was honest and upfront about the marketability of our home. He made recommendations for changing furniture arrangements around and took care of them himself. He was easy to work with, even though we were out of town most of the time. He made signing for us long distance a piece of cake. He was considerate of us and very professionally handled all of the details of professional photography and adding us to the website. He put adds in the paper at times when people would be visiting the town. I would highly recommend him.

He also insured that all contractual requirements and deadlines were met. He did his job well and made the process easy for us! Thank you, Gina and John
I have not met a more knowledgeable or harder working real estate agent than Chris Kopf in over 40 years of purchasing primary and second homes. No one knows the CB market better than Chris, his market research is unmatched, he is incredibly responsive, and he has a huge network of providers for all aspects of purchasing and living in CB. We purchased a second home while living in NC, and our search was so well facilitated, it was like we lived locally. We would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for a home in the Crested Butte area.
We chose Chris Kopf as the listing agent for our home for the following three reasons; 1. Chris has deep and broad knowledge of the Crested Butte valley real estate market as evidenced by his demonstrated success in the realtor business, and by the extensive research and analysis that goes into his monthly news letter to keep his clients informed 2. Due to his marketing skills, Chris has access to potential local and out of state home buyers. 3. Chris is extremely personable and gracious. Our home in Meridian Lake Park subdivision sold in a few weeks due to the overall excellence of the listing and Chris home buyer client knowledge. The entire process from initial discussions to closing was handled smoothly with minimum disruption or issue along the way for both us as the sellers, and for the new home owners. If you are a seasoned home owner, or if you are new to the home buying or selling process, we highly recommend that you consider Chris Kopf as your real estate professional. The Mitchells
Chris is a very personable and kind man. He was patient with me through the entire process. the very first thing he did was to hold a brokers open house making other realtors aware of the property. He was very good at marketing our home and getting people in for showings. Chris was responsive to my contacts and always listened and provided advice when requested. Once the viewings started we had a contract in approximately 6 weeks. Thanks Chris for all your help.
