Hi, I'm Amy Pates. For more than 30 years, I’ve been helping people discover what’s possible in the Vail Valley and Eagle County.

This isn’t just real estate to me, it’s home.

My family and I have built our life here, from teaching our three kids to ski and snowboard (including watching our son achieve his Olympic dreams) to exploring every trail, river, and hidden corner this valley has to offer.

I know you’re not just searching for square footage. You’re looking for the right fit. A sense of place. A community that aligns with your lifestyle, your budget, and your vision for what comes next.

Whether you’re moving up, scaling down, buying your first mountain home, or ready to build something custom, my three decades of experience across residential, commercial, land development, and ranch real estate ensures you understand every option available to you.

My family and I live the mountain lifestyle every day, and I’m here to be your resource and advocate - helping you connect with this community and find the place where you can live your dream, too.

Let’s schedule a call and take the next step toward your mountain future.

A Different Approach

  • Perceptions aren’t necessarily reality. My 30+ years’ experience has taught me that challenges can also present opportunities. From before market opportunities to buy-or-build options, I can present options others miss and make sure the numbers work for your budget and location needs.

  • From vetted architects and contractors to interior designers and land development resources, my trusted network locally, regionally, and globally means you have ready access to the resources, people, and processes you need so you can make informed decisions.  

  • Whether you're buying or selling, my expertise can add $200K-$300K to your bottom line, including insights on renovations that can maximize your return on investment.

  • From Vail to Beaver Creek, Singletree to Cordillera, Edwards to Eagle - I understand the personality, pros, and nuances of each neighborhood so you find the one that feels like yours.

  • This isn’t just about a sale; it’s about being a trusted resource for you and your family. I’m here to guide you through every step of the process, protect your investment, and help you achieve your dream of living the mountain resort lifestyle you envision.
