A note from Dave and his assistant, Terri Rasmussen: Combined, our team has more than 45 years of experience in real estate. During that time, we have seen more than a few different Realtor approaches to the business — from the bare bones of just putting it on MLS and hoping it sells, to spending a fortune on ineffective advertising, the agents benefitting from having their names and pictures out there at the expense of their clients’ advertising dollars. Our emphasis is to listen to you and focus on what matters to you and your family, dedicating ourselves to your real estate goals, and giving our all to help you enjoy a smooth and successful real estate experience. We will develop a marketing plan customized to your property and communicate clearly regarding what you can expect along the way. Working in close communication with each other, we ensure that you will never be left hanging. Whatever challenges arise, we will find the right solutions and help you maximize the return on your important real estate investment. When you add it all up, it’s easy to see why we are known as one of the Flathead Valley’s premier full-service real estate professional teams — we get results!
We enjoyed working with Dave and his team for our home purchase. They were accommodating and helpful as we navigated a move from out-of-state. They were solidly on our team and provided straightforward guidance and communication throughout the process. We'd happily work with them again on the future.

When a friend needed help selling her home, I called Dave Stone. I knew him well enough to know he would treat us fairly, which was our first priority. But I also had confidence that Dave's experience with our market would help us price the property to sell within our time requirements. A bonus was that he knows people in the valley that can get things done on short notice and at a reasonable cost. That was a big help when we needed to address some buyer's requirements to close the deal. And lastly, Dave is a good communicator. If he wasn't immediately available by phone or text, he always got right back to us. There was never any pressure, just straight talk from someone who made us feel like we were his most important clients. Thank you, Dave!

As someone who owned my own real estate business for 45 years before retiring, I can attest that Dave Stone is a competent and knowledgeable professional with many years of experience and a high level of education. I've used Dave several times with equally satisfying results. He has a warm personality and knows the market well. Real estate sales is a very competitive business with lots of excellent agents, but Dave is at the top of my list.

I can't say enough good things about Dave and his team. My wife and I were in the challenging situation of having to sell my parents' home in the Flathead Valley while living out of state. We were deeply concerned about how we would oversee and manage this process while living out of state. In the end, we chose Dave to represent us based on his success, experience, and trustworthiness. And boy did we make the right decision! At every step of the way, Dave and his team met the moment. They followed through meticulously with every commitment they made. And, when we were heading in the wrong direction, Dave had the confidence to challenge our thinking and help us get on track. In the end, we got the best possible outcome given our situation. We will be forever grateful for the role he and his team played in supporting our family in a time of need.
