Buying a Lifestyle
Tory Thomas is known for her up front, no nonsense style. She shows her devotion to her clients by continually exceeding their expectations. This business practice is one of many that she developed while selling real estate in Santa Cruz County as the top sales person in a large firm for 10 years. Tory decided to move to Aspen to pursue her passion for skiing and improve her quality of life.
The Aspen Board of Realtors has elected Tory as president of the organization’s 2015 Board of Directors. Her past experience as President-Elect with the board and her track record as an exemplary Realtor in the community prove she brings a strong sense of direction to the board. Past President, Karen Toth said, "I’m excited for the members as Tory has the commitment and desire to elevate member services on all levels."
Tory’s real estate clients are not the only ones that are impressed by her devotion. Ski Magazine selected Tory as one of the United States Top 100 Ski Instructors. Seamlessly melding her two worlds of skiing and real estate, it is not uncommon for Tory to take someone that she has skied with to see property.
Her strengths and her motto go hand in hand: “I like to listen, I like to share, and I’m high energy” and “Business as usual should be anything but business as usual!"
“It’s important that my clients realize they are buying more than just property in Aspen. They are buying a lifestyle!”
