Summit Living Team Joins PLACE to Strategically Grow and Support Team Members and Clients
“PLACE brings proven systems and expertise to help us return to profitability, dominate the market, and create better opportunities for our agents.”
BRECKENRIDGE, Colo., February 2025 — PLACE, the real estate industry’s only all-in-one business services and technology platform for top teams at any brokerage, announced today that Jason Smith and Summit Living Team are now powered by PLACE. PLACE improves profitability and production to make running a real estate business easier.
Jason Smith, owner and operator of Summit Living Team, leads a top-performing real estate team and independent brokerage serving Summit County, Colorado, including Breckenridge, Keystone, Silverthorne, Frisco, Dillon, and beyond. In 2023, Summit Living Team closed 184 transactions, representing $173 million in sales volume. Over his career, Jason has completed over 1,750 transactions, earning a reputation as a market leader in the competitive vacation and second home niche.
Jason entered the real estate industry in 1995 after earning a degree in interpersonal communication. Real estate was the only career he ever wanted, and he found immediate success by combining his people skills with a passion for building lasting client relationships.
In 2016, Jason began intentionally building his team, recognizing a gap in training and support offered by other team leaders. By prioritizing sales training and skill development, Jason created an environment where agents thrive and achieve significant results. His team’s success is fueled by innovative direct mail strategies, which have positioned them as one of the top listing teams in their market. “I believe in leading by example so my agents hear every call I make,” Jason said. “We’re in this together, lifting each other up through shared successes and challenges.”
Jason also looks forward to the leverage benefits of the partnership. “I can’t run every aspect of the team on my own,” he said. “PLACE allows me to focus on what I do best while they handle the rest.”
“Jason’s commitment to mentoring his agents and creating opportunities for their growth aligns perfectly with PLACE’s mission,” Ben Kinney, co-founder of PLACE expressed. “We’re thrilled to support the team’s growth with the tools and systems PLACE provides and can’t wait to see their continued success in this competitive market.”
“We’re excited to partner with Jason and Summit Living Team to support their growth and dedication to excellence in their unique vacation and second home market,” said Chris Suarez, co-founder of PLACE. “With PLACE’s systems and operational tools, they’ll have the resources to expand their impact, strengthen their business, and continue leading in their market.”
With this partnership, Summit Living Team aims to strengthen their leadership, streamline operations, and empower agents to reach new levels of success. “PLACE is the key to bringing us to the next level,” Jason said. “Together, we’re building a future that benefits our agents, clients, and community.”
