AT THE FOREFRONT OF SLIFER SMITH & FRAMPTON’S (SSF)

FRONT RANGE OPERATIONS STANDS ORLY RIPMASTER, A PRESIDENT KNOWN FOR STRATEGIC GROWTH, DEEP COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENCE, AND COMMUNITY VALUES.

Ripmaster combines visionary leadership with strategic acumen, shaped by her extensive experience in the global travel & leisure industry and private equity, most notably during her decade at KSL Capital Partners prior to returning home to Boulder to take the helm alongside her father at Colorado Landmark Realtors.

The strategic acquisition of Colorado Landmark by SSF in August 2022 was led by Ripmaster, the second-generation owner of Boulder’s leading luxury boutique real estate firm, and marked a

fusion of heritage and innovation. This move expanded SSF’s market reach to the Front Range and showcased Ripmaster’s ability to blend robust business strategies with respect for historical legacies. The acquisition brought incredible new global partnerships to the Front Range including SSF’s exclusive partnership with Forbes Global Properties, further cementing SSF’s position not only as the luxury real estate sector leader in Colorado, offering unmatched global reach, but as a firm with the most renowned professionals in the industry.

“What sets Slifer Smith & Frampton apart is our ‘last mile’ approach to real estate,” said Orly Ripmaster.

“Coupled with our team’s support strategy, CREST, we ensure SSF agents have the necessary resources and autonomy for today’s market success and personalized touches.”

Since the Colorado Landmark acquisition, Ripmaster has steered SSF through a period of significant growth. Defying market trends, SSF achieved a 25% growth over prior year in 2023, marked by the opening of a new office in Cherry Creek’s Hotel Clio and two record-setting sales, including a $6.8M mansion in Denver’s Washington Park by John Jaster, a record in that neighborhood. With over $13B in sales volume since 2020, SSF has consistently earned impressive rankings on the

RealTrends Top 500 list, ranking within the Top 150 by volume in the country and No. 5 among brokerages based in Colorado with an average sales volume per agent of $8.4M, an incredible feat for a boutique, local independent brokerage.

In addition, several Front Range agents made the America’s Best Real Estate Professionals list. At SSF’s core is a world-class sales team led by sales leaders across the Front Range including Niwot’s Deborah Read Fowler, Northern Colorado’s Ed Weaver, Boulder’s Phil Booth and Wendy Daniel, alongside Ripmaster’s Father, Joel and Cousin Scott, Louisville’s Maria Scroggs, Cherry Creek’s John Jaster and Luke Corbitt and Downtown Denver’s Brad Arnold, just to name a few, alongside seasoned executives and rising stars.

Ripmaster’s impact extends beyond business. Her roles as a keynote speaker, guest lecturer, and mastermind host, strong networks with Real Estate Women of Denver, Denver Women’s Leaders, and Her Workplace, demonstrate her commitment to mentoring and elevating women in the industry. Her fundraising and volunteering during the Marshall Fire and long-standing involvement with Buffs4Life and Bixby School highlight her commitment to community impact.

Ripmaster’s approach is a blend of diverse experiences, allowing her to bring innovative solutions to real estate.

JUST AS WE STRIVE FOR INTEGRITY IN BUSINESS, WE AIM TO LIVE RESPONSIBLY, TEACHING OUR BOYS THE IMPORTANCE OF SUSTAINABILITY.

“My character was forged in Colorado and honed at top-tier institutions, but returning home has always been my goal. I believe in the value of community and lead with energy, compassion, and a belief in my team,” she says.

Ripmaster’s life in Colorado mirrors her business ethos. Residing on a lavender farm in Niwot with her husband, Sean, and their two sons, they raise livestock and produce “lavender honey,” showcasing a commitment to local agriculture and sustainable living.

“Just as we strive for integrity in business, we aim to live responsibly, teaching our boys the importance of sustainability,” Ripmaster shares. Their local presence, often accompanied by their Bernese Mountain Dogs and sporting CU gear, is a testament to their deep Colorado roots.

Orly Ripmaster’s leadership at SSF is not just about real estate success; it’s about setting new standards in

the industry, nurturing a diverse team, and making a lasting impact in the community. Her legacy is transformative leadership, community involvement, and a relentless pursuit of excellence in real estate.
