Aspen Is Still Priceless...

How can you not love Aspen? It’s a survivor.

From its tough roots as the nation’s richest silver producer in 1891, to its economic collapse in 1893, when silver was devalued, Aspen emerged as a world-class ski destination in the 1950’s. The vision of the town’s founders was to transform Aspen into a cultural Utopia. To this day, Aspen remains an elite cultural and sport center, attracting great minds, humanitarians and outdoor enthusiasts. Throughout the years, Aspen has weathered other periods of sluggish real estate activity, notably the early 1980’s. I recall the skeptics saying back then that real estate prices couldn’t get any higher! You can’t put a price on Aspen’s “soul”, its sense of community or enduring small town charm.
