A long­time Real­tor in Col­orado has been fired for report­ed­ly remov­ing Black Lives Mat­ter signs in a neigh­bor­hood where she sells homes, com­pa­ny offi­cials said.

RE/MAX Alliance Own­er Chad Ochsner con­firmed that Denice Reich was ter­mi­nat­ed Aug. 3, KUSA-TV report­ed. Reich worked for the real estate agency since 1973, spe­cial­iz­ing in lux­u­ry homes.

Ochsner said there were mul­ti­ple posts on the Hill­top neighborhood’s NextDoor, a social media plat­form for home­own­ers and res­i­dents, which accused Reich of remov­ing the signs from the Den­ver homes.

“We’re not a com­pa­ny that can con­done tres­pass­ing on people’s pri­vate prop­er­ty and theft,” Ochsner said. “For us, it doesn’t mat­ter what the pol­i­tics is.”

When reached by the tele­vi­sion sta­tion, Reich said, “you dis­tort the news, I can’t talk to peo­ple who dis­tort the news.” She lat­er hung up.

Reich was not imme­di­ate­ly avail­able for com­ment Wednes­day after mul­ti­ple calls and a voice­mail were left by The Asso­ci­at­ed Press to a phone num­ber list­ed on a pre­vi­ous home list­ing of hers.

“We had a long-stand­ing rela­tion­ship with her as a promi­nent” real estate agent, Ochsner said. Her bio has since been removed from RE/MAX’s website.

Denver’s Hill­top neigh­bor­hood is known for its mil­lion-dol­lar homes east of Cher­ry Creek.
