How does one (or two) say thank you for helping to make a dream come true? Your professionalism, knowledge and expertise, gentle (but business-like) manner and general demeanor are so appreciated. Your knowledge of the area, the market and its trends and all the “extras” we required proved to be more than we could’ve hoped for. Thank you, thank you!

As the former co-owner of Telluride Mountain Title Company, in business 17 years, my choices for a personal realtor were very difficult. In a small town community where over 200 realtors competed and were my clients, choosing one to represent us was extremely difficult. The uniqueness of our home presented some special marketing challenges. Mike “Shimmy” Shimkonis immediately came to mind. While working with Shimmy professionally, he was consistently reliable, diligent, paid attention to detail, and determined in meeting his clients’ needs. These attributes carried over as he represented my husband and me. We ultimately received our asking price, which is rare… especially in the current market. I feel that Shimmy’s professionalism and compassion make him the ideal choice for anyone’s real estate needs.

Hi Mike, Thanks for all you have done for us, sincerely. You are the most upstanding, honest realtor we have worked with, and there had been quite a few. Looking forward to owning a place in Telluride! Thanks again.

We know Mike as “Shimmy” and he is a true cut above all Realtors. He is patient, honest, considerate and not pushy. Shimmy is extremely knowledgeable of the Telluride market. He worked with us for six years before we bought – we should have listened sooner. If you want the best and an ethical and honest Realtor, it’s Mike Shimkonis.

Working with Mike was an experience I will never forget. Going through a first-time home buying experience can definitely be nerve-wrecking, but with Mike’s help, this was not the case. Thanks to his high level of patience and understanding of the local market and my situation, he made this ordeal extremely pleasurable and educational. Mike’s knowledge of the local assistance programs helped keep money in my pocket, which was a huge help when discussing the costs of such an investment. His follow-up since our deal has been great and I have made a new friend. I look forward to doing business with Mike again and would recommend him to my closest friends and family. He is truly “the local’s local!” Thanks Mike!

Working with Mike has been an absolute pleasure. He spent a great deal of time really listening to what my family wanted and needed before the process began. It was important to us to have someone actively involved with our entire project. Mike gives of his valuable time generously. Thoroughly professional before, during, and after the transaction.
