Sarah Swanson was my point of contact for realtor Gillian Swanson. My experience could not have been better and I cannot recommend Sarah/Gillian any higher. They are both tremendously professional, knowledgeable and responsive. Buying my property was an extremely pleasant experience with their assistance.

Look no further and consider yourself lucky to have Gillian and her daughter Sarah as your real estate agents, they will find a way to get you into the home you want. They answer their phones, your questions, and know the real estate in this area better than anyone with many years of experience and local knowledge. I am just grateful to have worked with them through the home buying process. All the best to them in the future of representing Southwest Montana real estate, and many thanks.

Gillian and Sarah made our first land purchase in Montana absolutely seamless. They were a pleasure to work with. We were so grateful to them for sharing their knowledge of local land purchases and for facilitating a straightforward closing with no surprises. We'll certainly be retaining them in the future should we have more real estate needs.

Sarah Swanson was incredible. As a first-time homebuyer, I was incredibly nervous about the process. However, Sarah made this daunting experience feel simple. Sarah always advocated for my best interests even when they weren't helpful to her. Sarah not only managed my stress and communicated with me quickly and effectively, but also carried herself with professionalism, confidence, and the familiarity of an old friend. If you're looking for an excellent home buying experience, look no further than Sarah Swanson.

Gillian and Sarah are simply awesome! I made a land purchase through them and highly recommend Gillian. I had been looking to purchase property from out of state on my own and found it to be frustrating and wasn't getting anywhere. Once I started working with Gillian it was a totally new and exciting process! They are patient, provide a thorough approach in which they offered opinions when asked. When I found my dream property, Gillian was able to negotiate for me and I could not be happier. Very strongly recommend calling her!
Barbara J.
I was connected through Zillow to Sarah and I could not have been happier. First off, Sarah's responsiveness was off the charts. Second, she always went above and beyond handling any issue, request, or need that arose during the process. Run out to a showroom? No problem. Need some pictures? On it same day. Upgrade advice? You got it. Third, documents were prepared and transmitted and otherwise handled within hours, if not faster. Finally, Sarah always made me feel like I was her only client. Sarah also has all the contacts in the area you could need, seems well networked, and has a thorough understanding of the market. I would definitely go back to her to list or buy in the area again.

Sarah and Gillian and excellent real estate agents who are attentive and well informed. They were able to answer our questions and address our needs in a timely manner with kindness and care. The experience went well considering that the sellers proved to be somewhat challenging to work with. This is all the more reason to have an exceptional real estate agent who watches over our best interests.

Gillian Swanson and Sarah Swanson are professionals at all levels. Their knowledge base of the local market and the business of realty, in general, is outstanding. Having Gillian & Sarah as your realtors ensures that you will have a realtor who truly has YOUR interests in mind. We were building/buying at a challenging time that caused the process to be months behind. Gillian & Sarah guided us through the extended process and never allowed the seller/builder to cut corners. They are organized and manage all communications effectively and efficiently. They went above and beyond as realtors and were a joy to work with! We HIGHLY recommend them!
Kirby B.
We had the pleasure of working with Gillian and Sarah Swanson to purchase our new home when we recently moved to Montana. They were both wonderful to work with and went above and beyond to help us during the housing crunch that Livingston is experiencing. Gillian provided extensive knowledge and negotiation skills during the process and Sarah was the perfect complement to that. Sarah was immensely patient with us as we looked at many homes and had many questions. She always followed up immediately on anything we needed and her communication skills were excellent in always keeping in touch with us and making sure we understood things. We had recently sold our old home and had a terrible experience with the realtor in another state, so it was a genuine pleasure to work with Gillian and Saran - they are both very professional while also providing that perfect 'personalized' touch.
Pattie O.
Sarah was an absolutely wonderful resource and provided some much needed guidance on the neighborhoods. We spanned both Livingston and Bozeman in our search, looking for both houses and condos... plus land. She never wavered and had a great demeanor throughout the process. We recommend Sarah and Gillian without reservation, and look forward to working with them again!
Matthew B.
Sarah and Gillian were amazing to work with! Sarah went above and beyond with helping us look at, inspect, and go through the buying process. Since the sellers did not have a realtor, Sarah took it upon herself to make sure that everyone was on the same page and that the transition of ownership went smoothly. Sarah and Gillian were easy to get a hold of, had excellent communication both phone and email, and were very considerate of our questions and requests. I would absolutely use Sarah and Gillian again in the future and recommend them and their services to anyone looking to purchase property (or sell) in southern MT.
