Steve Mills
Steve first came upon Crested Butte in 1979 and soon after, it became home. In 1980 he opened a sports store on Elk Avenue, then in 1991, he transitioned into a career in real estate. He served as a board member on the first Crested Butte Chamber of Commerce during his time in Crested Butte. In 1996, he and his three children moved down valley to Gunnison, where he resides to this day. While living in Gunnison, he has volunteered on the Cattlemen's Days board and has served as a president (2015) and board member (2006-2019) for the Gunnison/Crested Butte Association of Realtors.
In the warmer months, you will catch Steve pursuing his passion for road cycling, hiking and backpacking. In the colder months, you will see Steve touring around his favorite trails on his Nordic skis. Steve would love to show you around the valley he has loved to call home for many years!
Tesimonials
When looking for a professional realtor with local knowledge, great communication skills, integrity, and industry expertise, then definitely partner with Steve Mills for a successful journey with your real estate needs. We reached out to Steve to handle the sale of a home in Pitkin. He provided the information, resources, and strategy that led to the smooth sale of the home while adding a level of compassion and coaching for first time sellers. I highly recommend Steve for any of your real estate needs and know that he will diligently work towards your successful journey as both a buyer or seller.Lorraine S.
Steve Mills came highly recommended, and we could not have been more pleased with his service. Steve helped us both buy and then later sell our first house. He is a patient and caring person that is easy to trust. His knowledge of the valley and professional demeaner paired with his deep understanding of real estate put us at ease and gave us confidence during the process.Brandin
We enjoyed working with Steve selling our home in Gunnison. Steve was there to answer any and all questions that came about. He communicated with us promptly pertaining to all showing times and worked around our schedule, We were extremely impressed with the pictures taken for the listing of our home. Our experience selling our home was beyond our expectations and we are thankful for Steve's tireless efforts.David and Jayne
Steve has real patience when showing a property. And high energy when it’s time to write an offer. He knows the area, most of the residents, and will always take questions seriously. He is local and makes it a personal connection. The “client’s best interest” guides his code of ethics. I would recommend Steve to anyone buying or selling real estate in the Gunnison watershed.Sharon R.
Working with Steve Mills of Bluebird Real Estate was a great experience. My wife Missy and I have been considering relocating to the Gunnison area for 2-3 years. This spring we decided to take the leap. We were unfamiliar with the Gunnison real estate market and didn't know what to expect. Steve listened carefully to better understand our goals and objectives, assisted in refining our choices and ultimately helped us find a great property that we are super excited about calling our new home. Steve was patient, knowledgeable and completely straightforward throughout the entire process. We felt he truly represented our best interests. We would, with hesitation, recommend Steve to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate in the Gunnison area.Brett & Missy G.
I would highly recommend Steve Mills as a realtor in Gunnison Valley. Ater listening carefully to my list of needs, he recommended the perfect house and helped me negotiate the sale. I felt comfortable with the decision even before seeing the house in person because he took the time to arrange a visit for my daughter, answered many questions that I didn't even know to ask, and knew the neighborhood well. His years of experience in real estate and with the area were helpful in so many ways. He arranged for local contractors to give me estimates on potential work to be done after the sale based upon the home inspection. Thus, I knew exactly what I was getting into. Since the purchase closed, he has shown an incredible amount of care in checking on the house (informing me of a drooping gutter) and connecting me with local businesses to help me get desired renovations done. He is the type of person who goes above and beyond. You won't regret working with him.Jacqueline T.
Steve was an absolute professional. He was attentive, thoughtful, knowledgeable about the local market, proactively involved, and always on our side. We have had Steve buy and sell a few homes for us in the Gunnison area over the last decade or so, and I would recommend him to anyone who wants a smooth experience with their Realtor.Jr and Karen B.
I recently closed on a property handled by Steve Mills at Bluebird Realty. The entire experience from start to finish was pleasant and professional in spite of having a rather difficult Seller involved. I highly recommend Steve and associates at Bluebird. Their new office on N. Main Street is beautiful!Terry M.
My experience working with Steve Mills at Bluebird Real Estate was excellent. He quickly assessed what I was looking for in a property with a home and showed me a good selection that were all relevant. He provided useful insights to help me compare homes and locations. Then Steve efficiently and quickly coordinated the purchase process, assisting with obtaining all the necessary information about the property and arranged services like surveying, and linked me with everyone I needed for inspections, insurance and so on. Steve was friendly, effective, and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Steve and Bluebird Real Estate.Chuck M.
My husband and I would like to say thank you to Steve Mills and Bluebird Realtors for working so hard to find us the perfect home in Gunnison. From the moment we decide to sell our home in River Walk Estates, to moving into our new home, it was smooth sailing. Steve new exactly what we were looking for and he communicated clearly and often to keep us in the loop of what was available in our price range. And then he quickly found a buyer for our home. It could not have been easier or less stressful, we didn’t have to worry about a thing! When you are purchasing a home you want professionals handling the details and that would be Steve Mills and the wonderful folks at Bluebird.Candace and Dan C.
I cannot say enough great things about Steve. My husband and I have worked with him to both buy and sell homes and have been treated like family through each experience. Steve has been a part of the Gunnison community for a long time and it shows in the amount of knowledge and expertise he has. Steve is an incredibly diligent and generous realtor to have on your side in this competitive market. In our latest house search he went above and beyond to make sure we ended up in the perfect home. It was such a pleasure working with him from start to finish and we plan to continue working with him on anything that may come up in the future. I cannot recommend Steve enough to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home.Kirsten P.
It was wonderful working with Steve on our properties on Caddis Fly Lane. He was so kind and helpful handling some extra issues we had, he particularly has my extreme appreciation for coming to shovel our long front walk when I was injured so that the house could be shown. Steve is a gem! Bluebird is lucky to have him!Cini J.
