In 1989, Dana Dennis Gumber arrived in Vail with little more than a dream and a love for the mountains. Born and raised in Iowa, she knew she wanted to build a life where adventure met opportunity. What started as a career in resort hospitality soon evolved into a passion for real estate—a natural fit for someone with an eye for detail and a commitment to exceptional service.
Dana’s journey began behind the scenes, working as a Title Examiner and Escrow Agent, where she mastered the intricate workings of the industry. But she didn’t stay behind the desk for long. By 1996, she became a licensed real estate agent, channeling her expertise into helping buyers, sellers, and developers navigate the Vail Valley market. Over the years, Dana has been instrumental in some of the area’s most successful real estate developments, including both phases of the Four Seasons Private Residences Vail and the Chalets at the Lodge at Vail. With a career spanning nearly three decades, she has participated in over $1.2 billion in real estate sales, a testament to her deep market knowledge and unwavering dedication to her clients.
Consistently ranked among the top-producing real estate agents in the Vail Valley, Dana is based out of the LIV Sotheby’s International Realty office located in the Mountain Haus, Vail Village. Whether working with luxury homebuyers, investors, or those looking for the perfect mountain retreat, she approaches every transaction with the same dedication—always putting her clients’ interests first.
Beyond real estate, Dana has built a full life in the mountains. She raised two daughters in the Vail Valley, both now thriving on their own paths. When she’s not helping clients find their dream homes, you’ll find her hiking scenic trails, biking through the valley, or boating on Lake Dillon. In the winter, she embraces the season with skiing and peaceful walks on the golf course.
