MEET SUZANNE PRETORIUS
A PARTNER YOU CAN TRUST
Suzanne Pretorius is an accomplished real estate professional in Park City, Utah who credits her success in helping clients achieve their real estate goals to her strong work ethic, unwavering positive outlook, and years of experience serving the Wasatch mountains of Northern Utah. Suzanne began her real estate career in 1995 as a licensed agent serving the greater Park City area; she went on to become an Associate Broker in 2010. Today as a veteran sales professional, she thrives on new challenges in the market—Suzanne goes above and beyond to help her clients attain Utah’s coveted mountain lifestyle. Whether searching for a vacation home, investment property, or a primary residence, Suzanne’s years of experience and powerful affiliation with the global Sotheby’s Realty brand ensures her clients receive a luxury experience from start to finish.
After graduating with a degree in Marketing and Public Relations from San Jose State University in California, Suzanne entered the workforce in the San Francisco Bay area, gaining considerable sales knowledge in her experiences working for advertising and PR firms. After several years, she began what was to be the start of her career in real estate, assisting several prominent commercial and residential developers in California with their marketing and advertising needs. After relocating to the mountains of Park City in 1992, Suzanne quickly earned a reputation as a top-producing agent. Recognized for her compassion and ability to relate to her clients, Suzanne leverages her extensive background in real estate development and marketing to her client’s advantage.
While Suzanne’s successful career has been the result of her outgoing personality and unmatched knowledge, the pleasure of being a REALTOR ® has been one of the most rewarding endeavors she’s ever experienced. Today she is supported by her son Logan as her licensed assistant. Logan was born and raised in Park City and has real estate in his blood—Suzanne was nine months pregnant with him when she earned her real estate license in 1995. Whether it’s creating comprehensive marketing plans, participating in the design process of a new construction home, or conducting principled negotiations, Suzanne and Logan’s partnership allows them to cover every detail on their client’s behalf. Backed by the power and reach of the global Sotheby’s Realty brand, and directly supported by the in-house marketing professionals at Summit Sotheby’s International Realty, the result of their professional approach results in gains for both buyers and sellers, mutual respect and appreciation from colleagues, and referrals from happy clients.
Suzanne’s upbeat personality and wealth of knowledge often put her in the position of being a mentor to new professionals who are joining the industry. When she’s not working, she enjoys spending time outside enjoying Utah’s landscape with family and friends, spending weekends at the Jordanelle Reservoir, camping in the Uinta mountains, paddle boarding, and gazing at the stars.
CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
“ “
“If you're looking for an agent in the Park City area, then look no further! Suzanne Pretorius was just outstanding in all facets of our house hunting and purchasing process. Suzanne is not only extremely knowledgeable and completely in sync with the Park City real estate market, but she is very well connected and collaborates beautifully with other agents to maximize her client's chances of finding their perfect home. Suzanne is very detail-oriented, so she never misses a trick and is always very punctual and communicative with her clients. On top of all this Suzanne is just a wonderful person, who is warm, friendly, and accommodating of a client's needs and wishes. Thank you for all you did for us Suzanne, you were fantastic and we appreciate you greatly!"
“Suzanne was responsive from the get-go. Since we live overseas, we skyped with her several times before seeing any properties. We were very specific in what our "ideal" home would be. After speaking with us, she was also able to gauge who we were and the type of community that we wanted to be a part of. With those criteria in mind, she showed us every available property in that price point. We were specific about our preference to be in a gated community, but she insisted that I see a couple that were not to confirm that was not the case. She wanted to make sure that we had no regrets in our choices. When we finally decided on a property to buy, she was our advocate throughout the whole process. She was helpful before, during, and after the home sale. Even now, she is still recommending local hot spots and places of interest for us to visit."
“Suzanne is professional, she treats you with respect, really listens to you, and will take care of you from the moment you start working with her. She puts all of your needs first. She treats you like family. She is honest, has integrity, and trustworthy. She will do whatever she can to make your home wishes come true!”
“I would recommend Suzanne to everyone. She is the best! We have worked with her on multiple real estate transactions and she never fails to impress. Her knowledge of the Park City and surrounding markets is extensive. She takes the time to get to you. She understands what your family needs in a home and works tirelessly to help you find it. She is kind to everyone she works with and is well respected by all of her colleagues. I know she puts her clients best interests forward at all times. We are very proud to count Suzanne as a friend as well! Thank you Suzanne!!”
“Suzanne is so wonderful and professional to work with! She helped us navigate the many twists and turns of buying our first home and was always there when we needed her! We will definitely use her expertise when we buy our next home!”
“Suzanne has helped us navigate several real estate transactions in Park City both as sellers and buyers. She has a keen eye for value, and her years of experience are a tremendous resource on both ends of any transaction. We have been impressed with her ability to work with other agents and her attention to detail. We would highly recommend Suzanne in any market, but particularly in one as competitive as Park City!”
“Suzanne is a fantastic agent. I found her responsive, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and a delight to work with. From our very first encounter, I appreciated her excitement for the project. Her decades of experience in the Park City, Utah market were essential for navigating aspects of various communities and accurately pricing each neighborhood. Suzanne was also regularly accessible. She was willing to provide various design and building ideas, and she involved others in the process. I would highly recommend Suzanne Pretorius.”
“Working with Suzanne was outstanding. What an experience! She took ownership of the process and kept everything moving, making the whole experience smooth and easy. Her knowledge of the Park City market was impressive. We realized the price she indicated at the outset, and the whole thing was quick. I cannot recommend her highly enough. To top it off, besides all of the above, she is a joy to work with. Upbeat, professional, organized and motivated."
“Suzanne was an incredible representative to us in the sale of our home. While we were not always in town, she coordinated a range of details that went well beyond those expected of us by a realtor. She was a wonderful communicator and provided regular updates. As she had sold multiple homes in our neighborhood she came well recommended to us, but her familiarity with the community and neighbors, I am certain played a role in our final sale.”
