Why Mountain Homes Vail

A True Boutique Brokerage

Mountain Homes Vail is a boutique brand, not a high-volume general-market office. That means a narrower focus — luxury and ultra-luxury properties in the Vail Valley — and the depth of expertise that comes from working exclusively in that space, rather than spreading attention across every price point and property type.

Personalized, High-Touch Service

Clients work directly with founder Susie Huxford and a small, dedicated team, including a full-time executive assistant and media director and a CPA-led finance team. That structure is intentional: it keeps the client experience personal and hands-on, even as the marketing behind each listing operates at a national scale.

Luxury-Grade Marketing

Every listing is backed by a full-funnel, multi-channel marketing strategy built to reach the global luxury buyer — not just a standard MLS listing and a sign in the yard. That includes:

Premium streaming video and curated luxury CTV/OTT placements on national networks such as CNN, ESPN, Fox News, Bravo, MSNBC, HGTV, and Golf Channel

A geo-intelligent ad platform targeting luxury consumers based on travel patterns, behavior, and proximity

Programmatic and elite search & display networks for audience segmentation and keyword dominance

An advanced cross-channel ad engine that keeps messaging consistent across every platform

Video-First Marketing

Mountain Homes Vail's advertising strategy is built around video and streaming placements first, reaching high-net-worth viewers on the channels they actually watch — rather than relying solely on static listing photos and print.

Local Expertise

With more than 20 years in high-end real estate sales and strategy, and a 2024 ranking in the top 11% of Vail Valley MLS brokers by transaction volume and top 14% by dollar volume sold, Susie Huxford brings a track record of results specific to this market — not a generalist's view of it.

Global Reach

The marketing strategy behind Mountain Homes Vail listings is designed to put properties in front of ultra-wealthy audiences well beyond the Vail Valley, both locally and globally, matching the reality that luxury mountain real estate buyers are often searching from somewhere else entirely.

Skilled Negotiation

Susie personally directs strategic offer negotiation on behalf of her clients, backed by signature pre-listing preparation systems built specifically for ultra-luxury properties — designed to put sellers in the strongest possible position before a property ever hits the market.

A True Concierge Approach

Beyond marketing and negotiation, Mountain Homes Vail offers high-level concierge services for buyers and sellers, including expert property valuation and seamless contract-to-closing coordination — discreet, white-glove service built for investors, second-home buyers, entrepreneurs, and legacy-driven families.
