What Our Clients Are Saying...

"The results were very good. We worked with them over a period of time looking for land up in the Bigfork area. Scott's been incredibly responsive to all of our requests. He went out of his way on weekends to show us property when we were up there visiting and when we made the offer on the transaction that we just closed on. He went out of his way to get a lot of information for us and negotiate the deal. We're extremely satisfied. Given our experience with Scott and his team we would certainly use him again and recommend him to family, friends, or anybody. He's probably knowledgeable as anybody in that area so he comes highly recommended as far as we're concerned."

- Roger P.

"I actually purchased a home through them and it was very successful. I worked with Drew Hollinger and he helped navigate the financing situation providing all the documents that our lender needed. Drew was able to connect me with the other owners of the other side of the duplex that I purchased actually it was a two-unit condo and I purchased one side of it. We had trouble trying to understand some of the homeowner association documents and so he was able to actually locate the owner of the other side and help us answer some questions."

- Kristie H.

"My results were great I was selling a property in Polson Montana and it was a very unique property because it was a lakefront property with a building that wasn't finished yet it's an unfinished building which is kind of hard to sell. The Hollinger team was great they came out and helped me. They're always calling me and helping me and they were very good. They seemed they were always above and beyond. I wasn't always in town and they would always call me or tell me of a showing or tell me how it went afterwards. They would always be available anytime I would call, their own cell numbers or Scott Hollinger was great and the whole team. I would recommend them to anybody that I knew selling or buying a property."

- Jan G.

"I worked with Dane Hollinger who helped me put together the transaction. I was able to meet with him on short notice to ask questions and go over the transaction details. But as I look back at the sale what really stood out for me was Dane's willingness to do whatever it took to help me make this run smoothly. In fact he is at the house helping me move things into storage driving his truck down to the location and actually helping me load things up. I don't think it gets any better than that."

- Doug H.

"Good Results. Anytime we needed Scott, we worked with Scott for years showing us home. He was always right there. We love Scott, Dane, and the Hollingers. They were there every time we needed them. They would drive clear around the lake anytime we needed them. They were there, seems like they went out of their way. I highly recommend them, and I have been recommending them. We just love them."
