Stephanie L. Tanis of Re/Max Performance, Inc. is the real estate agent for you! Stephanie has been a licensed agent since 2006 and has been trained as an ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative) and GRI (Graduated Realtor Institute), as well as a Short Sale and Foreclosure Specialist (SFR). Stephanie went to college at Colorado State University in Ft. Collins and has been awarded Executive Club with Re/Max in 2007 and 2008, and 100% Club in 2009 and every year thereafter. She joined the ranks of The Platinum Club honors in 2012, and has achieved this status year after year. She decided to pursue a career in real estate because she loves working with people and her family. "It was just natural to go into business with my husband and mother-in-law, forming the Tanis Team." Her favorite part of being a real estate broker is working with the people and the different dynamics daily. Stephanie specializes mostly in residential, but also in commercial and vacant land as well. According to Stephanie, the market in Colorado is currently steady and stable, shifting to a more neutral market. For first time home buyers, she recommends getting pre-qualified and to keep in touch with your mortgage entity for changes and updates. Finally she recommends finding a great agent that you like and trust. For Stephanie, the most rewarding part of the real estate business is the relationships and bonds she builds with her clientele. The most challenging part of the business to Stephanie is keeping current from moment to moment on the facts and what is truly happening in the market. She tells us, "Having good communication with all the facets of the process is key". Stephanie tells us that the key to being a great agent lies in "Honesty, integrity, loyalty, a good listener, a good communicator, friendly, respectful, and a great negotiator. I try to show all of these characteristics in every way I can. Each transaction and client is different, some will require more of one attribute than another, but all are the complete package." Stephanie Tanis has lived in Colorado since 1976, and joined her current community in 1980. Since then she has watched it grow and evolve. "This is a great place to make a home and experience the best of everything Colorado has to offer. We are in the heart of being central to almost any type of activity, within 1 hr of skiing, fishing, Continental Divide, Denver, CO. surrounded by National Forest." There is so much to do in Colorado, including snowmobiling, ATVing, hiking, Garden of the Gods rock climbing, Florissant Fossil Beds digging for fossils, mountain biking, Pikes Peak Hill Climb, ice racing, ice fishing at the local lakes and reservoirs. Colorado has an abundance of outdoor activities and areas that can be endless to see, and also will help you to keep in good health with the high altitude breathing. This area is known as "The City Above the Clouds", the weather is usually nicer at this elevation than in the lower elevations. Colorado has some of the nicest people in the whole country, but none are more hardworking, honest, and a friend than Stephanie Tanis.

Stephanie is an exceptional agent. We are from out of the area. She knows the area well and helped us find the best property for us. Stephanie was also an advocate for us during the negotiations and closing process.

Stephanie was very easy to work with. The house needed a lot of work, and she went above and beyond to find and line up contractors to make the house saleable. In the end the house looked great and sold fast for a good price.

Stephanie Tannis provided excellent service in the recent sale of my deceased brother's house. We were not in the state, yet she handled all aspects of the sale including calling a lock smith, plumber, and septic service when needed, as well as working with the title company. She was just great, always positve, cheerful, and forward thinking. We were able to close the entire sale process in less than 4 months! We are deeply grateful to her and her staff.

I first met Stephanie as the realtor on the opposite side of a transaction as the other person's realtor AND, now 3 times as my own agent - selling a condo, a home and a piece of land.l - 2 of which were estate properties with lots of emotion, along with a very overwhelmingly difficult seller's market. She always was so personable, yet professional and ever so patient. Cannot recommend her enough.

It was a pleasure working with Stephanie to sell our home during a fairly down market. She brought expertise to the process and offered excellent advice and encouragement throughout, from staging the house to managing all of the various glitches that seem inevitable in a real estate transaction. We would recommend her without reservation.

Stephanie was dedicated to our end goal. We purchased land and sold our home with ease. This whole process was streamlined by Stephanie. We did not have to worry and or be concerned about the details of these transactions. We were in another state, and she kept us abreast of all proceedings at all times. These events went smoothly all because of Stephanie. She is simply the best.

Stephanie Tanis was our RE agent on the purchase of our home in Divide, CO and we loved working with her. She impressed us right away with her responsiveness and availability to show us homes we were interested in. We were in town for a short time over our Christmas vacation and she was available to us by phone and in person to show us houses when it was most convenient for us. That is a very special quality! If we had a question about a well or septic system or the property lines, she would hike out in the snow with us to show us the land and answer those questions for us (I was super impressed - she was so energetic and upbeat). She didnt pressure us at all. She knows all about wells (she has personal experience with wells), septic systems, and neighborhoods in Divide/Florissant/Woodland Park. She is very organized and even though most of the purchase of our home was done remotely (we were in California during most of escrow), Stephanie was able to get us through escrow without any hiccups. She is a skilled negotiator and we feel like we got a great deal on our home (we also negotiated for some repairs and furniture, tools, etc). My dad lives in the area and he came to the inspection and final walk through with Stephanie and he was also very impressed with Stephanies knowledge, work ethic and friendliness. She knows all of the best vendors in the area as well. We highly recommend Stephanie!!

Stephanie Tanis is simply the best possible real estate agent you could possibly use in this area! We utilized her services to sell our unique mountain property as winter started gripping the land. She quickly brought true professionals to bear, both staging and photography, who both contributed to the best presentation I have seen in my seven home sellings so far. Due to her and her team's efforts, our home had multiple showings in the first two days, and went under a successful contract within three. After going on contract, Stephanie continued to closely follow the buyer's progress and contribute information and advice up until closing. In summary, we couldn't be happier with our choice in agents. Highly, highly recommended.

Stephanie Tanis is the best of the best as a realtor and as a person. We were impressed with her expertise all the way along. We initially choose to work with her because we thought she nailed the market analysis. Early in the selling process she caught an error that was made when we purchased the home - that neither we nor the realtors had caught. She was persistent and proactive in getting the error fixed. She also assisted us through the inspection process and again with persistence found an engineering expert and helped us to find a timely solution to the issues. She assisted us in a multitude of ways to smooth the sales process and we credit her with the sale of our home for a very fair price. She always made herself available and was consistently on top of things. It was a privilege to work with her and to get to know her. She is a true professional. I wouldn't want to sell a house, especially a mountain property without her!

Stephanie's knowledge of what to look for in a property to meet your needs and the process of purchasing a home is so helpful, especially for a first time home buyers like us. We really appreciate the effort Stephanie made to understand what we are looking for in a property. She is available to listen and discuss potential properties. Her skills and experience are encouraging for someone new to the process. Her attention to detail and ability to share her wealth of information in terms that do not intimidate but educate and empower the buyer really stand out amongst the multiple Real Estate Agents we interviewed. Stephanie will go above and beyond throughout the home purchase process. She is an excellent communicator and coordinator with Lending Agencies and the myriad of other parties involved in a home purchase. We love our property and are so grateful to Stephanie for helping it become a reality.

Ms Tanis initially sold us our mountain home here in Colorado nearly 9 years ago. She gave us wonderful advice on issues we had never dealt with as we had always been urban people. So there was no question about selecting a realtor when we determined we were going to relocate out of Colorado! Stephanie was not only very knowledgeable regarding real estate in general, she is very knowledgeable about the Teller County Colorado area specifically. She is very personable and treats her clients very personally. She goes the extra mile to sell properties for the best price based on the current market analyses. My husband and I are very impressed by Stephanie's expertise, experience as well as that of Remax Performance of Woodland Park CO. Thanks, Stephanie!

When there were questions on, she ensured she provided accurate information and guided us through a lease-sale process in a masterful way. She was always fair and very pleasant. We felt like we were her only clients. We got a very fair price on our home and she was able to bring us the perfect buyer for our property. We appreciate her expertise and friendship very much!

I seriously cannot say enough good about Stephanie Tanis, she is the most professional caring real estate person I have ever dealt with. My wife and I have only been in our dream home in divide for about four months, my wife got some news about her health and the doctor recommended we move back to a lower altitude. I have asked Stephanie to list the house, she found a buyer immediately and the whole transition has gone very smooth and stress free. She also helped us find a new place in Colorado Springs. She saved us a considerable amount of money considering my wifes medical condition, this lady has a very big heart. I would highly recommend Stephanie and she will always be my real estate agent.

Stephanie navigated us through the sale of a vacant land parcel in divide. The seller & sellers agent were a challenge ranging from getting info to adherence to contract dates, Stephanie skillfully & professionally retrieved all info we needed to make our land purchase. She stayed in touch with us, in some instances on a daily basis so we always knew where we stood in the transaction. Her knowledge of the teller county area ( and beyond), building in the area, municipality challenges, HOA info, wells, ISDS I could go on & on she is the consumate professional & we're both so fortunate to have crossed paths with her & represent us. Our closing went smoothly as Stephanie coordinated with all parties & insured all pertinent docs were availble well ahead of time for our review maintaining our high level of comfort with the process & purchase. I'll work with Stephanie again, without hesitation, on any upcoming real estate deals, after contacting other realtors in the area Stephanie is in a class all her own

Stephanie took care of our sale for us, and was a true go getter. She treated us like important clients, even though we are in a different state and she never even saw our faces. My wife and I came to Stephanie after having a rough time with another agent, and we felt relief after our first conversation with her. She immediately had a strategy for how to sell our home, and explained the details of how we would list the house, as well as the reasons why that would be the most beneficial way to list. She set us up with a constant stream of feedback from agents and potential buyers, and contacted us often to make sure we understood the information presented to us. A wonderful photographer came, she set up staging items and even did physical labor. She truly did whatever she could to make our sale happen. I cannot overstate how comfortable we felt with Stephanie and the Tanis team. We only regret that we didn't find her first!

After looking at several existing homes and not finding what we wanted, Stephanie suggested building our own on a lot in a neighborhood we never thought we could afford. It got done and we ended up with a beautiful custom home. When it came time to sell she guided us through the whole process, even taking care of last minute issues/repairs needed to finalize closing. She knows the area, knows the ins and outs of real estate and, most important, knows how to get things done.

I have been working with Ms Stephanie Tanis for about 4 months to find property in Teller County. She has always provided outstanding service. She set up a couple websites to keep me informed of properties on the market, sends me property suggestions when she sees listings meeting my criteria, sets up property viewings and takes me to see the properties I'm interested in. Stephanie is very knowledgeable of the Teller County area and is very responsive to all my questions and requests. I highly recommend her services!

She quickly zoned in on our tastes, wants, and needs to help us eliminate homes that wouldn't be to our liking - saving us lots of time and effort.As "out of town" buyers we really appreciated Stephanie's expertise, knowledge of the area, and patience with us. Our search would have been a much harder and longer process without her.

Stephanie by far has been the best real estate agent that we have conducted business with to date. This will be our 4th house in our 23 years as a married couple and we have interacted with many agents. She is professional, courteous, thorough and a delight. Stephanie has never been pushy, nor tried to direct us in a way that would be more beneficial to her or her company. She listened to all of our requests, and helped us to find the best place for our family. We highly recommend Stephanie as a future real estate agent.
