We did 2 transactions and would highly recommend.She listed and sold my house in a week.I also bought a house from her.She was always available but I tried to leave her alone on weekends.
The Bergquist/Donnelly Team has been our business' real estate professional of choice for many years. Cole and Rebecca consistently provide quality service, which is an invaluable asset to us. One of the critical aspects as we strive to operate our business successfully is establishing clear communication with our partners. The Bergquist/Donnelly team always keeps us up to date and in the communication loop regarding our transactions, contributing to the high level of trust between us. There are several other key reasons why we rely on the expertise of the Bergquist/Donnelly team. The marketing services they offer are second to none, including outstanding drone photos of our properties, as well as cutting-edge tools and an active social media presence that allows them to reach a large audience. A critical component of the Bergquist/Donnelly reputation is their ability to accurately value property. They understand how to select comparables and we find their CMA reports on point and very useful. In fact, I personally discuss home plans with them, seeking their professional advice regarding what encompasses a sellable product. Our firm is highly pleased with the service received from Bergquist/Donnelly and anticipates a continued relationship far into the future!
She began with a stressful, unique situation and negetotiated every obstacle calmly and professionally. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needed a top-rate realtor.
I lived in Washington State at the time and was wanting to purchase a home in Montana as my retirement home. I figured now was the time to find a realtor in the area that would help me achieve my dream. I started browsing the all the different realtors on Zillow and came across Heather. I wanted someone local, with significant time in the business, and not associated with one of the huge Realty Corporations. I was looking for that individual service that didn't make me feel like just another number. Boy did I hit the jackpot with Heather. She was genuinely excited to hear my story and help me with finding that perfect home, the one that checked all the boxes I had. I sent her a written description of all my boxes along with example pictures so she had a good understanding on how to filter the listings. Heather explained to me that because the home I wanted was not in town but was out into the mountain areas, inventory of available homes was low. It was the beginning of March and still very much winter there. She said May or June before inventories typically rise. I didn't want to hear that but she was right, made sense to me. A few days later I was shopping on Zillow and came across a home that I could not believe. It pretty much checked all my boxes. Its a feeling that's hard to describe, you just know that's the one when you see it. I immediately texted Heather. Her response was great. Simply, "I'm on it". From that point on, things moved pretty quickly. Heather new exactly what was needed and when it was needed and what comes next. One of the great things about Heather is that she is very good about explaining any part of the process I didn't understand, and I had a lot of questions. She actually complemented me on the number of questions and that they were very thoughtful questions. I was just trying to learn and she understood that. There was a lot of back and forth documentation wise and Heather helped me through all that. Unfortunately I had made the mistake of choosing an out of state lender to fund a small portion of the cost, and the underwriter for that company ran everybody through the ringer. Not something Heather or anyone else involved had ever seen before but we were too deep in with them to pull out. Everyone, and I mean everyone were stressed, but that's a different review for a different company. Heather kept telling me that everything would work out and try not to stress too much. Ultimately she was right again and it all came together, albeit at the last minute.Heather is your typical working mom. More than once she would answer my call or text while picking up her kids or at some family function. Wither it was then or later, she always responded to my calls. It was her down home-ness that separated her from the "Corporate" person. She is an AAA+ realtor and an even better person. I couldn't recommend her any more. She's the best.
I had to change realtors 4 months into my listing, Cole came in like a professional, with a strategic plan, took amazing photos, reasearched the best listing price, used feedback from viewers to calculate his next move, negotiated for the absolute best offer & then closed a solid deal. He stayed diligent until it closed. He is truly the wizard!
Rebecca and the Bergquist/Donnelly Team did an excellent job for me. Being 350 miles away, communication was important as well as relying on them to handle the job for me. Rebecca made time for me whenever I was able to make it to Missoula. Thank you for working so hard to quickly find the right buyer, so we didn't have to experience a long drawn out process of selling our office building. I'd definitely consider working with Rebecca and her team on my next transaction in Missoula.Kent
The Bergquist/Donnelly Team did an outstanding job of marketing our one-of-a-kind log home/horse farm. Their custom, high-tech photography and internet savvy proved to be the "secret sauce" that found the perfect buyers for our ranch. We had previously listed it with another high end real estate group without an offer anywhere close to what we wanted. They stay accessible night and day, immediately returning phone calls and e-mails with prompt follow-up. That was very important to us. We have recommended Rebecca and Cole to several of our friends and would definitely use them again as our first choice. Mike & Susie
We were very pleased with Ms. Donnelly 's professional yet personal work for us. We opted to give her 7% rather than 6% in a time based incentive to sell quickly. She earned every penny of it and we highly recommend her. Jeremy and Colette Bert .
My wife and I needed to find a house in a very short period of time. Our family was expanding and we needed the extra space as soon as possible. This was our first time buying and without a doubt, Cole and his associates, are outstanding people to work with. Cole is extremely knowledgeable about the local market and did a great job helping us get into our first home. His team is great work with and they are very organized. This process was surprisingly smooth for us. I would recommend Cole and his associates every time someone is looking to buy/sell in Missoula, MT. Thanks guys! JB
We contacted Cole to meet about listing our home. A friend of ours recommended him because of the marketing presentation he performed for them. We met, listened to his marketing presentation, and immediately listed our home. He proceeded to have photography done on the home, which included using a drone to view the birds-eye look of the home and surrounding area. He also had a 3D tour of the entire home performed. This photography was, at the very least, very impressive to prospective buyers. We received a contract after the first and only showing! Cole negotiated to a very close to full asking price. He also negotiated an additional 30 day post-closing occupancy as we were moving out of state and needed that time to properly relocate. We would highly recommend Cole to anybody for their real estate needs.
Cole did a great job with our listing and took extensive pictures that best represented our unique property. I would recommend him for any of your real estate needs.
Cole was extremely pleasant to work with. This was my first time buying a home and he made the process quite smooth. He also didn't mind answering all of my questions considering I had very little knowledge in this process. His knowledge of the area (which places are highly sought after, what will sell quickly, what will unlikely be able to negotiate, what places will have a better resale value down the road) was hugely beneficial in streamlining the process. He was also very flexible as far as my schedule was concerned to look at houses. Cole was realistic, honest, trustworthy and extremely knowledgeable!
Very knowledgeable on VA loans and we had an issue with the carpets being deep cleaned and not did she go to bat and get it cleaned again but she let them in and locked up afterwards while we were on our tenth anniversary. Thank you!
It was a pleasure to work with Cole in the sale of our home. The photos he took were amazing and he was very knowledgeable about what it would take to get out house sold. The technology and photography that Cole utilizes to showcase his home are the best we've seen!
Cole was a pleasure to work with and made the process very easy. I would recommend Cole to anyone that is looking to buy or sell a home. Cole made it so easy and our house sold in less than two days. If your looking for an expert in the industry call Cole.
Cole was friendly, professional, and did a wonderful job. He helped us navigate the process of buying and selling homes in a short period of time. He successfully negotiated a lower price on the home we bought and sold our previous home for our asking price in one day. I would gladly recommend his service.
Cole has the qualities you look for in a realtor. He listens, provides sound advice, responds quickly, researches all aspects of the property and negotiates well. He is very friendly and has a great attitude. Cole represented us very well during our land purchase, and we wholeheartedly recommend him to others buying or selling property.
We feel really fortunate to have had the opportunity to have Cole represent us in our home buying experience in Missoula. Not only that, he made my family and I's transition to a new city that much easier. His professionalism, his easy going manner and his tremendous real estate skill set helped us find the perfect home to start our journey in Missoula. From the very first time I contacted Cole to beyond closing, Cole was nothing short of excellent to work with. Cole knows the Missoula market, he's a tremendous communicator, and he made looking at countless house prospects (which can be a daunting and tedious task) a fun experience. I'd recommend Cole to anyone who asks who they should work with in SW Montana. And the next time we decide to buy / invest, we'll turn to Cole - Bart and Sara and Emmett
I just bought my first house and I was very impressed with Cole Bergquist's professionalism and knowledge. He was able to guide us efficiently through the process. We are ecstatic to move into our new home! Thank you! ~Caitlin
Cole made my house buying experience as seamless as could be. He utilizes a number of slick online tools that kept me up to date on available houses in the area I was looking for. Very knowledgeable on market prices and was able to get my place locked down at a great price. There is a reason why he's respected amongst realtors and lenders. First class cat! Look nowhere else
This guy is a "Go Getter" and a real upbeat Realtor!! He worked hard to market our property and I was very happy with him and his work. He was very knowledgeable about the Linda Vista/Maloney Ranch area.
Working with Cole was so easy! He sold my house the day it was set to go on the market; he sold my house in 1 day! He made each step easy and explained everything to make each phase of selling my house easy. Thank you Cole!
Cole blew me away in every aspect of this process. As first-time home buyers, we needed quite a bit of guidance and he was knowledgeable, helpful, and impressively prompt every step of the way. Our closing process was quick and painless, and our dream home was under contract within hours of first looking at it. We can't thank Cole enough for his hard work and dedication!
Cole Bergquist is an agent with integrity and honesty. He sold our home in a reasonable time with close to the asking price. Cole puts together an incredible marketing package. He creates a strong online presence that is essential for today's real estate industry. Thank you, Cole! K&M
Cole is as good as it gets in the real estate business. He was extremely professional, hard working and dedicated in getting the job done. Cole is a genuine guy, you can tell he really cares about his clients well being, and will always put in the work to get your property sold. I recommend Cole Bergquist to anyone, and he will always have our business.
Cole did an excellent job in helping me secure my new home. He was able to work with me through a lot of difficulties along the way, but in the end he made it happen. Cole is an excellent realtor and I highly recommend him.
Cole is professional, exceptionally responsive, and highly motivated. I had doubts that we could find a move-in ready home in Missoula, at the right price, that fit our search criteria. Cole found us exactly what we were looking for within days. He answered all of our questions quickly, and negotiated terms that were important to us into the contract. Cole uses innovative technology that made the home buying process a breeze. We couldnt be happier. Thank you, Cole. Nate & Urs
I contacted Mr. Bergquist over a year ago in hopes of locating a suitable commercial property to relocate my office. This process was slow, time consuming and at times frustrating as the ideal location was elusive. Mr. Bergquist spent many hours showing me options, giving me various referrals to professionals for any questions I had regarding construction or surveying. He made the process of writing offers simple and efficient by using electronic platforms for e-signing necessary documents and submitting offers. He remained patient, responsive and informative until we found the best property. Mr. Bergquist made my experience a pleasurable one. I enjoyed working him on this endeavor and will certainly utilize his services in the future.-M.S
We recently sold our home with the help of Cole. We contacted him just days before leaving on a vacation, in hopes of getting our home listed before we left. Not only did he get it listed, but he also lined up the photographer to take pictures right away so we could have a great listing to leave town with. At the time of the walkthrough with Cole, he told us we should be able to get an offer within 30 days, and sure enough, he came through on that. We couldn't have been more pleased with Cole's knowledge of the market and neighborhood, and will definitely be recommending him to any of our friends that are looking for a great realtor. Our move out-of-state was less stressful knowing that Cole had our home sold before we left. He also was great about following up with us in the days leading up to the closing. We have sold a few homes and this was by far the easiest one, in large part thanks to Cole.
Cole was very responsive and had a quick turnaround time to anything we needed. Being first-time buyers, there are many unknowns in the process, and Cole ensured we were on track to a successful purchase. His negotiation skills are outstanding! His presentation of comps and ability to justify an offer saved us a hefty amount of $ off the purchase price and off the closing costs. I would recommend Cole to anyone looking to buy a home. 5 star realtor.
I highly recommend Cole. Cole helped us purchase a wonderful home in the timeframe we needed. He also put us in contact with other professionals that are necessary to facilitate a successful real estate transaction such as an inspector and lender. He was very flexible with my busy schedule and used technology well to reduce time obligations. For any future transactions, we will go through Cole. Thanks.David Maldonado
Cole worked really GREAT with me. He kept me informed of the process and gave me a timeline that we stuck to and closed right on schedule. Cole provided me with a task list and all the necessary documents and information needed to expedite the whole process of purchasing a home. I was so surprised at how easy the entire process was. Cole worked really well with my lender to ensure all transactions were smooth and efficient. Cole was always available to answer my questions and my CONCERNS without hesitation. Cole also provided me with a variety of contractors to do my remodeling, as I am new to the community and did not know where to start in looking for a contractor. The final product is absolutely beautiful. I am very satisfied with my experience in purchasing a home in a beautiful neighborhood and working with Cole. I have already recommended Cole to several friends looking to purchase in the area. I am a very satisfied customer!!
I challenge you to find another realtor that will outwork Cole. The experience we had with Cole is one that I would recommend to anyone looking to buy or sell. He gave us great insight when it came to the market and how to position our home for a fast sale at a good price. And once our home was officially listed for sale, Cole put into action a comprehensive marketing plan that led to a ton of traffic and multiple offers. He essentially eliminated any of the stress that can be associated with selling your home. And he did all this while being very personable and with a smile on his face. There is no question who we will call the next time we are buying or selling. Dan and Nicole
Cole helped us purchase a wonderful home at a great price in Missoula. He was very organized and professional during the home buying process and showed us many different homes to help us narrow down the best house. He knows the Missoula property market very well and was able to help us find our dream home. He also helped us find a contractor, home inspection company, lender, everything we needed to buy our home. Thanks Cole!
After listing my home with another agent from a different company (who failed miserably) I talked to Cole and Mark about taking on the listing. They promised me they could get it sold. I was particularly impressed with the understanding that my time and property is valuable and that "lookie loos" would not be appreciated. My home was showed to serious and qualified buyers. When it comes to selling real estate the proof is in closing the deal. They got it done.
Cole has great hi-tech skills which serve him so well in the modern real estate business.The web site he created for my property was the best one i have ever seen in the state of Montana.House he listed for me did not sell....but it had nothing to do with the way cole marketed the property.Being in the real estate business for over 40 years it is quite easy for me to assess a realtors skill level.Cole has an impressive array of real estate marketing skills.Put them to good use ! Works quickly also.Would recommend Cole for any of your real estate needs. Sincerely, Kevin Kona
Cole was a professional in every sense of the word. He provided us with a high level of expertise when advising us on how to sell our home and possessed a solid knowledge of the housing market. Cole is a very hard worker and is accessible if questions/concerns arise. I would strongly recommend Cole to anyone looking to buy or sell a home and I look forward to working with him again in the future.
Cole was very good. We were unable to sell because of price disagreements but I would hire him again. He is professional, honest, friendly, knowledgable and hardworking
Cole is on top of his game. He's professional, a market expert, and willing to do whatever it takes. He's a master of technology with everything you could need at his fingertips. Couldn't ask for a better realtor and friend.
