Forbes Global Properties Celebrates the Meaningful Growth of Telluride Properties

Two of the area’s most respected and longstanding real estate authorities join forces to offer an expanded presence, and amplified visibility through an innovative marketing platform

Telluride, Colorado (October 8, 2024): Forbes Global Properties, an international network of selected real estate brokerages that connects buyers and sellers to the world’s most exceptional properties, is proud to announce the merger of Telluride Real Estate Corp. and Telluride Properties, two of the most trusted and longstanding real estate brokerages in Telluride, Colorado. Spanning nine prime locations throughout Telluride and the Mountain Village, the team of more than 70 leading local agents will operate as Telluride Properties.

Telluride Properties was founded in 1986 with offices on Colorado Avenue, at the Gondola Base and in the Town of Mountain Village. Albert Roer and Polly Leach-Lychee, Partners at Telluride Properties, LLC shared, “Both teams have embraced this merger and we all look forward to combined and enhanced marketing programs, exploring new markets, enhanced collaboration and exchange of ideas and expertise for facilitation of transactions.”

Founded in 1981, Telluride Real Estate Corp. was established by TD Smith and Ron Allred as a subsidiary of the Telluride Company as the primary marketing arm for what was to become the Telluride Mountain Village. TD Smith said, “We are enthused with the evolution of this consolidation that heightens our visibility, marketing outreach, knowledge transfer between brokers and the prestige of a firm representing the sales effort for the preeminent Four Seasons project.”
