Lindsey Van

Lindsey’s desire to learn and do something new each day is what drew her to real estate. Every day is different and so are each of her clients’ needs. As the only female Olympian in the Park City and Heber Valley real estate community, Lindsey takes pride in serving her clients with tenacity, grit and determination. She won’t give up. Simple as that. Lindsey honed this skill as a female ski jumper determined to realize her Olympic dreams. Raised in Park City before Salt Lake bid for the 2002 Olympics, Lindsey was in love from the first time she caught air. After the thrill and adrenaline rush of her first jump, she told her parents she wanted to go to the Olympics. Fast forward 20 years and she’d won almost every competition she could. Lindsey was a World Champion, a 16-time National Champion, and even became the first woman to go ski flying in Norway. Despite all these accomplishments, she couldn't realize her Olympic dream as her sport didn’t allow women to compete in the Olympics. As a veteran champion of the sport, Lindsey became the face of the organization in a lawsuit against the Canadian Olympic Committee to force them to allow women to compete. Although that specific suit was unsuccessful, it did lead to the IOC finally allowing the sport into the Games. You can watch the documentary “Ready to Fly” on most streaming services to learn more about the effort. Lindsey competed in the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games before retiring from competition in 2015.
Despite traveling and competing internationally for 20 years, Lindsey graduated from the University of Utah with a degree in Kinesiology. The thought of being inside a clinic all day just wasn’t appealing, though, and since she’d held a real estate license since 2004, she decided to see what opportunity awaited. She never looked back.
Lindsey loves negotiating on her clients’ behalf, bringing her Olympic-caliber competitive spirit to negotiate on behalf of her clients. Tenacity. Grit. Determination. Put them to work for you.
