Iva is a longtime resident of Telluride, where she has long been committed to the mountain lifestyle. Originally from Bulgaria, she was drawn to the opportunities and openness of the American people and then to Telluride’s singular beauty and the character of its residents. Her husband Tim is one of the most respected developers in the area, with a thirty-year track record of building luxury homes and developing neighborhoods. Together, they have their fingers on the pulse of the local real estate market. Iva not only buys and sells real estate in Telluride—she invests as well. But, as immersed as they both are in the market, they have one greater priority—family.
Success is often a story of perseverance and tenacity. After growing up in Eastern Europe, Iva attended college at Metropolitan State University in Denver, earning her B.A. in Business Management. Then, she launched her real estate career as a property adjuster. After several years, she moved permanently to Telluride and dedicated her career to real estate. Her success soon led to her prestigious alignment with Sotheby’s.
While she has traveled the world from Europe to Asia, Central America, and Australia, her heart is solidly in Telluride. She supports numerous organizations, including First Time Homebuyers Fund, Hoot Brown Scholarship Fund, Airline Guarantee Program, Angel Baskets, One to One, and others. She also serves on the Telluride Association of Realtors Board of Directors, advocating for homeowners’ property rights. Telluride also provides the perfect environment for Iva to pursue her eclectic passions, ranging from hiking and skiing, interior design and fashion to yoga and nutrition.
The key to understanding Iva’s effectiveness and entrepreneurial spirit is integrity—her respect for communication, transparency, innovation, creativity, and the resources entrusted to her. Iva’s top priority is ensuring every client receives a world-class service, regardless of the price point. Iva is especially passionate about the potential of real estate to change the lives of her clients—allowing them to live a more exciting and adventure-filled life. It has engendered deep loyalty and life-long friendships with her clients, vendors—and her team.
