“The mountains are calling and I must go.” – John Muir
Whether you are looking for a weekend getaway or your forever home, you undoubtedly share Kara’s love for the mountains. When buying or selling real estate, Kara will listen to your unique needs and work with you to make your experience efficient and enjoyable, yielding the desired results. She understands how valuable your time is and can utilize her experience in marketing, communications and technology to turn a complex process into a simple and enjoyable experience.
From an early age, Kara loved spending time in the mountains. “Whether we were hiking in the foothills outside my childhood home in Ft Collins or skiing fresh powder in Steamboat, I always loved the time my family spent in the mountains, especially when they were covered in snow.” Her family spent many a ski weekend in Steamboat where Kara’s experience with the ski and snowboard program had her hooked for life. A graduate of CU Boulder, Kara spent years handling marketing, training and communications for a quick casual restaurant company and later utilized her online and social marketing knowledge to assist book publishers with their needs. Like many others, Kara and her husband were drawn to Steamboat for its great school system, laid back feel, amazing recreational activities and of course, world class skiing. “We feel so fortunate to call Steamboat home and plan to do so forever.” Never one to sit still for long, you can find Kara hiking outside her backdoor at Spring Creek with her husband, their two young children and their malamute Bailey, enjoying story time in the amazing children’s area of Bud Werner Library, playing in the sand at Burgess Creek beach at the mountain base or at Steamboat Crossfit challenging herself in a new way. During winter months, look for Kara skiing off Storm Peak or enjoying a leisurely run down the mountain with her five year old, snowshoeing off Rabbit Ears or soaking at the Old Town Hot Springs with her family.
Whether you are new to town or have been fortunate to call Steamboat home for some time, Kara can help you realize your dream in this amazing community.
Kara was great during the whole process and kept us in the loop along every step!
We didn't end up buying a house in Kara's region. However, Kara showed us homes, researched, and answered all our MANY questions. We appreciated her professionalism and help even though in the end we ended up elsewhere.

Kara has been working with us for years now. We were undecided on what direction we wanted to go, and she was excellent about sending us a variety of things to look at over the past 2 years. When we finally decided what we wanted she helped us find the best deal for us. She stayed in contact with us the entire time we bought our new house and sold the old one. She's always professional and she acted with integrity...not something everyone has these days!!
Kara is extremely knowledgable about the Steamboat market. She is on top of everything and one step ahead always. And she has all of the right contacts to ensure a smooth buying or selling process, as we’ve used her for both. She’s also just a wonderful person which makes it just a really pleasant experience doing business with her. All the stars! Would definitely recommend!! Thanks for everything Kara!
It was a true pleasure working with Kara. Our experience from start to finish was excellent. She has great interpersonal skills, is extremely organized, a great advocate for her clients, essentially a perfect communicator, and has a great personality for the icing on the cake. One would expect in a competitive market such as Steamboat Springs for the process to be stressful, but with Kara, it was enjoyable. We are very fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with her.
Kara has helped us purchase two homes now. I always appreciate her kindness and patience while doing such a large purchase. She takes the time out of her days to help answer any questions and ensure we feel completely comfortable. Thank you, as always, Kara!!
Kara has been very helpful with the listing and sale of my lot and my search for another property in order to take advantage of a 1031 exchange. Kara has always provided answers to my many questions in a timely manner and has been a great resource in putting me in touch with the appropriate professionals in order to utilize the 1031 exchange process.
Kara was fantastic to work with. I’ve worked with a few realtors in the past and she was by far the most knowledgable and on top of everything. Not only did she have expert knowledge of the steamboat area and the nuances of the home purchase, but she surrounded herself and thusly us with an incredibly talented team of professionals to keep the process moving along seamlessly. I highly recommend her for any home purchase and would use her in a heartbeat should I have a property to put on the market.
Kara was exceptional. She made the process very easy and comfortable. Thanks again.
I really enjoyed working with Kara. My house sold in a VERY short amount of time and for a solid price! She is a great communicator and stayed on top of the details that I needed to know about. She made the entire process FUN and was genuinely excited for me and my future plans!
When I had a negative experience with another real estate agent in town, we were lucky to get set up with Kara soon thereafter. She was genuine, professional, and responsive to all of my questions. (And I had many questions, as we were moving in from out of state and had only been to Steamboat a handful of times.) She explained the different areas and helped us find a home that would best suit our family. I appreciated her ability to negotiate the price down to what we were looking for.
Kara Mann helped us find the perfect home in Steamboat Springs Colorado. She showed us properties both in and outside of town which gave us a feel for the community. We originally thought we wanted a single family home, and ultimately decided on a new construction townhome centrally located between downtown and the mountain. The process was streamlined thanks to Kara’s knowledge of real estate and attention to detail.
I would definitely recommend Kara to anyone looking for property in the Steamboat area. We knew we wanted to live in the area, but didn't know what type of property we wanted. Kara showed us a wide range of properties, from condos in Steamboat to acreages outside of Stage Coach. She understands the area well and was able to help us find our dream property. She was very patient and was willing to drop everything and show us property at a moments notice.
