Crystal was GREAT. Knowledgeable, Patient, Helpful, Available, Professional, Connected, Informative, Caring, ... are some words that come to mind to describe her during our search and purchase of our dream home on Lake George. Since we live out of state (14 hours away), it took a special person like Crystal to guide us to the right place. After the closing, she continued to be a willing and available new friend to introduce us to other local people who have been helping us with our new project. Crystal, you are a wonderful person.

Crystal Staepel has been my agent through the purchase of my home and now through the difficult process of short selling. She has been amazing in her responsiveness to my needs, especially from a distance as I had to move from the area for a job. I would recommend Crystal Staepel highly to anyone interested in purchasing or selling property in the Yampa Valley. She is a multi-generational local who knows the area very well and using this knowledge, strives to find the perfect fit for her clients. Crystal will work tirelessly to this end.

We worked with Crystal Staepel to locate properties that met our requirements, viewed the properties and successfully bid on a very difficult purchase of a superb home with additional acreage. Crystal is extremely knowledgeable about real estate, legalities, financing, the local Steamboat / Stagecoach area and the local people. Her wide range of knowledge and experience really set her apart from others. When asked for contracting references, she referred us to professionals in the area with known track records who are very competitive and the best in the business. I highly recommend Crystal if you want a superior, professional and knowledgeable agent. Kevin Wild CEO - DVM Systems, LLC

We recently purchased a home in the Brant Lake are and Crystal was very knowledgeable in the process from bidding to closing. She was diligent in staying in contact with the attorneys and myself made the whole transaction seamless for me. She was very pleasant and easy to work with and I would be happy to recommend her.

Crystal is wonderful to work with on both sides of the process. She sold our house and also found us the perfect house to purchase. I would strongly recommend her.

Honestly we couldn’t have done this without her. She is a true and honest person and was always straight forward with us.

We just loved working with Crystal. Knowledgeable, responsive, warm and friendly.

Selling you home can be a challenging process, especially when you live 3000 miles away. Crystal made the process easy and seamless. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the local market and the transaction process. Showings were smooth and the offer/sale process proceeded without a hitch. If you are looking to buy/sell in the area, there is no one else to use.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Crystal. We were purchasing a home from a distance and she was always very accomodating and always willing to help. She made communicating easy and her use of technology really simplified what would have otherwise been a slow and cumbersome process.

Crystal is great to work with. Her experience was evident as she knew all the local market dynamics, made the process incredibly easy and even recommended great local professionals when needed. Crystal also understood and advised on our negotiation strategy. This was a real estate transaction that could have easily fell through, yet Crystal was able to work with the sellers agent to work through various issues. Given my purchase was 4 1/2 hours away, Crystal was my lifeline to the area. She arranged to meet various service companies to help me get estimates /home inspection. She was very professional throughout the process.

Crystal was fantastic. She was willing to preview properties for us since we were not local and then when she found a property that she thought was perfect she told us to jump on a plane to see it. She was right and we happily put in a bid after seeing it in person. She was always responsive and made the closing process smooth. Would definitely recommend her.

Crystal was very professional, knowledgeable and responsive. We felt very comfortable that she was representing out best interests and we felt confident in her ability to promote our home. We highly recommend Crystal.

Crystal made plans after our first meeting to perform a market assessment and when she returned approximately a week later she provided us with a $ 25,000 range for listing our home. We listed and had 11 viewings within 10 days to 2 weeks and had 2 competing offers at above listing price. We sold at an almost 5% premium due to an excellent agent and agency where NLG Realty worked as a team and obviously did their homework! Crystal and NLG Realty did a far superior job than ANY previous realtor or agent that we have used in the past! Crystal and NLG are professional, knowledgeable and experienced!

Crystal and NLG are true professionals! She sold our home in one day with multiple offers above ask. She follows through on every detail and responds immediately. She's our agent for life!

Crystal Staepel is very knowledgeable of the industry and has her clients best interest at heart. She was very easy to work with and helped me understand portions of the buying process that I was not aware of. She was very attentive and always available to answer questions with no hesitation. This was the best buying experience I have ever had and will definitely recommend her to everyone I have the opportunity to tell. She’s a gem! Thank you thank you thank you!

After dealing with 2 other agencies over a 5 yr period with no sale or interest, NLG was highly recommended by a neighbor of mine. I spoke with the staff and worked very closely with Crystal. She made me feel very confident the NLG team would do everything possible to ensure this property got the advertising and exposure it required. Within a short time an offer was presented. Crystal was quick to respond to my questions and walked me through every step of the way till the deal was completed. I highly recommend this team and absolutely loved working with Crystal.

Crystal was excellent as a selling realtor. She provided us recommendations on how to stage the house within the constraints we had, provided guidance on how to price the house, and helped negotiate the final offer. She was also very helpful in providing 'boots on the ground' work as I could not be there for in person meetings. This is the 4th house I have sold and I would definitely use her again.

Crystal is a very patient and resourceful real estate agent. We worked with her for almost a year to find our home at Lake George. In a very constrained market, she guided us through the process and provided invaluable assistance to help get over the inevitable hurdles. We highly recommend her and would not hesitate to user her services again for future transactions.

Crystal is a highly skilled real estate professional. She represented us in the sale of our home. Her in-depth knowledge of the real estate market presented us with a selling plan including an initial listing that generated immediate interest.

Her ability to read the current state of the market, attention to detail, and excellent interpersonal skills make her an exceptional real estate agent to use.

When we finally found the right home for us, Crystal helped us put together an incredible team to make the end-to-end buying process as straightforward as possible. She helped us navigate some complex issues that arose and ultimately helped us get a good deal on a home that we absolutely love. Crystal and Lonnie have deep expertise and experience in the Bolton and Lake George area that was invaluable throughout the process and even post-closing.

If you own or want to buy a Lake George property, Sherwood is the group to use. As a seller, I can tell you that I knew I made the right choice. They understand the market and values, they put fantastic photos together, and they made the sale and closing a piece of cake. I don't write reviews often, but I felt strongly about telling (buyers or sellers) to use Sherwood. Can't say enough positive about the, One last comment that is critical for me. Integrity.

I can’t say enough good things about Crystal, Lonnie, and the whole team at Sherwood Group. Crystal worked with us for a long time to help us find the right home. In a tough real estate market for buyers, she helped us stay grounded and realistic. Our search was even more challenging because we were not local to the area, which really complicated home buying in a hot seller's market. Crystal made it as seamless as possible.
