Global luxury home brokerage plants flag in Denver


Engel & Völkers, a luxury real estate brokerage based in Germany, has established a franchise in Denver under the direction of local real estate veteran Jim Cavoto.

Cavoto has taken his firm, Ion Real Estate, which counts more than 40 advisers, and rebranded it as Engel & Völkers Denver. Cavoto will remain in charge of the office, along with J. Steven Opp.

Engel & Völkers previously had seven locations in Colorado focused on the mountain resort areas of Aspen, Vail, Beaver Creek, Roaring Fork, Snowmass, Telluride and Carbondale. The Denver office will cover high-end properties from Castle Rock to Longmont, including Boulder.
