Chris Klug
As a three-time Olympian and Olympic Medalist Snowboarder, I’ve spent my life competing at the highest level. Since retiring after the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, I’ve brought that same work ethic, focus, and drive to Aspen real estate, closing over $1 billion in career sales and consistently ranking among the top-producing brokers in the valley.
Before real estate, I grew up immersed in hospitality. My father was a legendary hotel general manager—known to many as “Mr. Hospitality”—and I had a front-row seat to what world-class service looks like. That foundation became my springboard into real estate, where I’ve combined deep local knowledge with a lifetime of experience in guest-centric service. Over the past two decades, I’ve sold more downtown Aspen core condominiums than any other broker.
I specialize in high-impact marketing and high-stakes negotiations. My team and I have represented some of the most significant and record-breaking transactions in Aspen Snowmass, including:
• 926 Willoughby Way – www.WilloughbyWayAspen.com
• 1020 Carroll Drive – www.AspenStarwoodEstate.com
• 1627 Wood Road – www.1627WoodRoad.com
• 1500 Ute Avenue – www.1500UteAve.com
• 353 Terrace Drive – www.MeltonRanchSnowmass.com
In 2020, I sold over $206 million in real estate. I followed that with $170.6 million in 2021, and over $300 million in 2022, 2023, and 2024. Recognized as Best Male Realtor by?The Aspen Times?and known locally as “Mr. Snowmass,” I’ve earned the trust of both clients and the community.
I’m hands-on in every deal—showing properties, negotiating offers, and crafting tailored marketing strategies that work. With 20+ years of broadcast experience and a creative edge honed through Olympic sponsorships, I know how to tell a story and elevate a brand. I partner with the best photographers, videographers, and designers to showcase each property’s unique value across Sotheby’s global network, Klug Properties’ wide-reaching social platforms, and a vast database of qualified buyers.
I’m also a 25-year liver transplant recipient. In 2003, I founded the Chris Klug Foundation to support and inspire those waiting for the Gift of Life—and to show the world what’s possible after a transplant. I continue to live that mission every day. In summer 2025, I’ll compete in my 15th Leadville Trail 100 MTB Race Across the Sky to prove exactly that: anything is possible after a life-saving transplant.
I’ve lived all over—from Aspen’s West End to Smuggler, West Aspen to Snowmass Village—and I’ve loved every place I’ve called home. After traveling the world on my snowboard for two decades and visiting the best ski and snowboard resorts on the planet, there’s still nowhere I’d rather be than Aspen Snowmass.
I’m a Certified Master Negotiator who knows how to seize every opportunity. My clients appreciate my honesty, tenacity, and deep local insight. I live here full-time with my family, and I care deeply about this community and its future.
If you’re looking for an agent who combines world-class experience with local knowledge, creative marketing with relentless follow-through, let’s talk. I’m serious about real estate, and I’ll be serious about yours.
