With over 23 years of experience within the Aspen valley real estate market, Laurie Laing is committed to making the buying and selling processes one of ease and confidence. Laurie’s reputation is having uncompromising integrity, an expert-level knowledge of the market and its evolving trends. She has a tenacious commitment to protecting her client’s best interests which has made her one of the top 15 brokers within her company and top 5% among a highly saturated market of real estate professionals in the Roaring Fork Valley.
Laurie’s loyal network of clients including Texas, Florida, California, Connecticut, Michigan, Wisconsin, South Carolina, New York and beyond have chosen to work with her because of her expertise, can-do attitude, and ability to negotiate to her client’s advantage.
Originally an east coast native from New York and Connecticut, Laurie moved to Michigan and graduated from Michigan State University with a BA in Materials & Logistics Management. She was then recruited to Loral Aerospace in Newport Beach, California where she refined her contract writing and negotiation skills. However, the mountains were calling and she navigated from the beach to the Rocky Mountains. When she arrived in Aspen, she launched herself into a career in Purchasing for Aspen Skiing Company and bought her first home in the Aspen valley. After going through the process, she knew a career in real estate was an opportunity to help others live the lifestyle they love by creating permanence in the valley via residential investments.
However, her commitment to uplifting her beloved community exceeds her commitment to helping people find their dream homes. Laurie has been heavily involved in the decision-making of local non-profits, such as the Aspen Valley Ski Club, the Western Slope College Fair, AVSC Academic Advisory Committee, and Aspen Sister Cities which is a student exchange program to Bariloche, Chamonix, Shimukappu, Garmisch and New Zealand.
Laurie’s 30+ year legacy within the Roaring Fork Valley makes her a local expert in helping you find your Aspen dream home. Outside the office, Laurie loves to ski, bike, run, skin, and practice yoga. Off land, she is a boater and travels to Minnetonka Minnesota, Naples Florida, and the British Virgin Islands with her husband and two children who are currently attending college at Colorado University in Boulder, and Miami of Ohio in Oxford, Ohio.
