Forbes Global Properties, an international network of selected real estate brokerages that connects buyers and sellers to the world’s most exceptional properties, proudly congratulated Slifer Smith & Frampton Real Estate on the opening of its new office and property showroom in the North of Nell building, 555 E Durant Avenue #4A, just steps from Aspen Mountain.
Long regarded as a benchmark for mountain living, Aspen continues to attract discerning buyers from around the world with its distinctive lifestyle, vibrant cultural scene and premier residential real estate. The opening of Slifer Smith & Frampton’s new office reinforces the importance of local expertise and personal connection in an increasingly digital world, providing a dedicated space where clients can engage directly with trusted advisors in the heart of the community.
“As we celebrate this exciting milestone, we are honored to recognize Slifer Smith & Frampton’s continued leadership in Colorado’s residential real estate market,” said Michael Jalbert, CEO of Forbes Global Properties. “Their ability to balance a rich heritage with a forward-looking vision continues to distinguish them among the industry’s most respected firms.”

Founded by industry pioneers Rod Slifer, Harry Frampton and Mark Smith, the brokerage has built a reputation for deep local knowledge, trusted client relationships and a longstanding commitment to the communities it serves.
“Being in the heart of downtown Aspen, steps from the Silver Queen Gondola and some of the community’s most iconic destinations, gives us a unique opportunity to strengthen our presence in town,” said Matt Fitzgerald, CEO of Slifer Smith & Frampton Real Estate. “It also has a deeper meaning for us. At a time when so many industries are increasingly defined by scale, consolidation and national brands, this new showroom stands as a reminder of something different: the enduring impact of founder-led companies, family businesses and community-minded organizations that have invested decades in Colorado’s mountain towns.”
Reflecting the Slifer Smith & Frampton brand in a relaxed and approachable way, the new office features a welcoming coffee bar and soft seating to encourage conversation. The location also includes a dedicated presence for Stratos Snowmass, the final and largest residential collection in Snowmass Base Village, further connecting buyers with one of Colorado’s most significant resort developments.
Exemplifying its support of area businesses, Slifer Smith & Frampton Real Estate’s new downtown Aspen office will host regular public events during the ski season that showcase community collaborations.
