Congratulations on moving to a wonderful corner of the world! 

Relocation involves lots of changes, but part of my job as a realtor is to provide you with a road map that makes setting up a new life in a new place much easier. Below, you will find many helpful links and phone numbers.

Don’t hesitate to ask me for referrals to doctors, dentists, contractors or other resources you find that you need in the process of relocating.

In Colorado, your car will be registered in the county where you live. The Roaring Fork Valley includes three counties, so you will need to note which one holds your new residence. Make sure to bring your car’s title, current registration, identification and your proof of insurance form when your go to the local Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). 

If you don’t yet have the pink slip, you should also bring along the name and address for your auto loan.
You will find full information about auto registration and titling in Colorado here.
