Ascent Sotheby's tops $100 million in sales since opening in 2009

Ascent Sotheby’s International Realty celebrates its third anniversary by surpassing $100 million in year-to-date sales through Sept. 30, 2012, and what is expected to be its most successful year since opening in October 2009.

Started by Tye Stockton and Triumph Partners’ owners Steve Virostek and James Fangmeyer, the firm opened with eight brokers and has grown to include a staff of 21, including 18 licensed brokers.

“It’s been an exciting past three years,” said Stockton. “We opened during one of the toughest economic climates for luxury real estate sales, committed to establishing Ascent Sotheby’s International Realty as the leading, boutique luxury real estate firm in the Vail Valley. We have clearly made our mark and our growing team of professional brokers, led by VP/Managing Broker Craig Denton, has helped us build a reputation for quality service and attention to detail.

Total sales volume by quarter includes $39,987,000 (Jan-Mar 2012); $39,404,523 (Apr-June 2012); and $28,036,266 (July-Sept 2012).
