livingston area market update

Signe Lahren broker, manager 406.220.2525

As we thaw out from a winter that didn’t start until February, we are now hitting the ground running. In early 2019 listings and sales were off to a slow start, but the second quarter has ramped up with new properties coming on the market every day. Sales continue to be strong in our market, but pricing seems to be leveling out.

The average in town home price in 2018 was $254,000.00.* Data from the first six months of 2019 shows an average residential in town home price of $240,000.00.* These figures are down from 2017 where the average home price was right around $260,000.00.* We are seeing more new construction and more land sales which may be a contributing factor to the price adjustment in residential home sales.

We are looking forward to another great year here at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Montana Properties in Livingston. We have added a few more agents to round out our impressive roster of experienced agents who know and understand the local market. We represent residential, ranch & recreation, luxury and commercial properties.

We are excited to provide you with our annual summer brochure that focuses exclusively on our Livingston and surrounding area listings. We have many more listings that are coming on the market every day, so be sure to visit us at BHHSMT.com.

Our agents would be honored to assist you with your next real estate transaction, please stop in at our downtown location. *As reported by the Big Sky Country MLS

7 Reasons to Work With a REALTOR®

REALTORS® aren’t just agents. They’re professional members of the National Association of REALTORS® and subscribe to its strict code of ethics. This is the REALTOR® difference for home buyers:

1 2 3 4

Ethical treatment

Negotiation knowledge There are many factors up for discussion in a deal. A REALTOR® will look at every angle from your perspective, including crafting a purchase agreement that allows enough time for you to complete inspections and investigations of the property before you are bound to complete the purchase.

Up-to-date experience Most people buy only a few homes in their lifetime, usually with quite a few years in between each purchase. Even if you’ve done it before, laws and regulations change. REALTORS® handle hundreds of transactions over the course of their career.

Your rock during emotional moments A home is so much more than four walls and a roof. And for most people, property represents the biggest purchase they’ll ever make. Having a concerned, but objective, third party helps you stay focused on the issues most important to you.

24

5

Expanded search power

Every REALTOR® must adhere to a strict code of ethics, which is based on professionalism and protection of the public. As a REALTORS® client, you can expect honest and ethical treatment in all transaction-related matters. The first obligation is to you, the client.

Sometimes properties are available but not actively advertised. A REALTOR® can help you find opportunities not listed on home search sites and can help you avoid out-ofdate listings that might be showing up as available online but are no longer on the market.

6 7

An expert guide Buying a home usually requires dozens of forms, reports, disclosures, and other technical documents. A knowledgeable expert will help you prepare the best deal, and avoid delays or costly mistakes. Also, there’s a lot of jargon involved, so you want to work with a professional who can speak the language.

Objective information and opinions REALTORS® can provide local information on utilities, zoning, schools, and more. They also have objective information about each property. REALTORS® can use that data to help you determine if the property has what you need. By understanding both your needs and search area, they can also point out neighborhoods you don’t know much about but that might suit your needs better than you’d thought.

sales associate, abr, gri

406.223.1095 Growing up in Cincinnati, Ohio, I had the pleasure of learning how to ride, hunt and fish at an early age. As a result, when I turned thirteen and I had my first good fortune to visit Montana, I fell in love with all of it’s glory. I knew one day, I would be back. Given that my background has always been in sales and marketing, and that I’ve spent so much quality time in Montana, joining the real estate world where I could share my discoveries with others and help them to find their dreams, seemed like a natural fit. I take great pride in working hard for my clients and making sure that they understand the steps, as we move through to a successful transaction. It is all about communication. I represent both Sellers and Buyers looking for land, single family homes, condos, townhomes, as well as vacation homes. It would be my honor to show you the magical Montana that I discovered so many years ago!

Kim Busby broker

406.223.7721 I moved to Livingston in 1981 and never looked back! I obtained my real estate license in 1992 and have spent decades helping Buyers find or Sellers sell very unique, specialty properties of all size acreages, with or without homes and more particularly with hard to find features such as live water, trees, history and privacy. I love people, I love real estate and I love Montana! I would welcome the opportunity to put my experience to work for you to help you find or sell that special place under the Big Sky!

Marcie Hertz broker, crs, gri

406.223.4466 The quaint, historic town of Livingston is where I grew up, married and raised a family; our children are fifth generation Montanans. Horses remain an important part of my life as I recently acquired a rescue OTTB thoroughbred who has changed my life.

In 1994 I launched my real estate career and have helped countless buyers and sellers achieve their goals since. Providing exceptional client satisfaction has always been my goal for buyers and sellers regardless of price range. I combine strong negotiation skills and marketing expertise to get the results clients expect.

I take a hands-on approach, offering buyers and sellers guidance throughout the buying and selling process to help them reach their real estate goals.

Peg Sundling broker

406.580.6501 My real estate career began in the title insurance industry. As an escrow officer in Gallatin County, I experienced the perfect introduction to an ever changing, complex, boom and bust industry. As a real estate broker I still follow the motto and #1 rule of Title: “Read, read, read!” Always read and understand your listing contract, buy-sell agreement, covenants, easements, loan information and all the intricate details. I want to make sure you have complete knowledge and enjoyment of your investment. I am a native Montanan being born in Butte, growing up in Bozeman, and now residing Livingston. My husband is a Park County native and moved us back to his roots shortly after we were married 15 years ago. He is a 4th generation rancher and a cattle broker. We have one son. I truly feel blessed to call Livingston and Shields Valley my home. I cannot imagine raising our family anywhere else.
