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.
We're very pleased with the expertise, professionalism, friendliness and cooperative attitudes we received from both David Stone and Terri Rasmussen. From remote online searching to in-person viewings, they helped us narrow the search to locate the perfect home for us. From negotiating the best offer to providing information and assistance through closing, Dave and Terri were invaluable. And we appreciated their knowledge and referrals to other businesses and services to help our transition to our new location.
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.
It was a pleasure working with Dave. He is very experienced and assisted me in some important decision making. I would give him my highest recommendation for anyone who has brokerage needs both residential and commercial. I have owned my own commercial real estate business in Connecticut for over 40 years and I am glad I chose David to list and sell my property.
Dave provided everything we needed when my mother passed away and we had to sell her home. He was very prompt, professional, and sympathetic in a time when we needed all of those things. He explained the local market to us along with our options and a good strategy for selling the home including general tax implications. He also offered great recommendations for getting the home ready for sale. I would highly recommend David Stone for any seeking to buy or sell a home in the Flathead.
No one will work harder, research more, or carry your trust and best interest to heart than David Stone and his fantastic team. I honestly do not hesitate to recommend him for a second. He has researched and helped me to acquire some beautiful properties and worked equally hard to help me sell some. Over the years I am honored to say he has become a good friend and deserves your business.
David was very quick and responsive to all my inquiries regarding the property we ultimately purchased in Kalispell. He was able to thoroughly provide information regarding easements and help clean up documentation regarding the lot of land. David was definitely a key reason why communication was so smooth and the closing process from initial inquiry to title was only about a month long.
First bare land purchase and it went well. Met him on short notice when we were passing through. Helped us handle the whole transaction while out of state. Thanks!
David helped me sell an older triplex within less than 6 months of listing. He kept me informed through the process. He is a high energy type of guy with a compassion for people.
I have purchased 2 properties with the help of Dave. I found him to be very personable, exceptionally positive and the consumate professional. I will continue to use his services beyond question.
Dave is one of the most affable, knowledgeable realtors I have ever worked with. I admire his flexibility and calm demeanor. I give him my highest recommendation, and based on my experience, Dave Stone will always be my first choice of realtors in the Flathead valley.
Dave generated a comparative market analysis of a piece of property I am selling in the Flathead. He is very knowledgeable of the area and the market, was extremely responsive to my questions, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him!
We have bought a number of properties through the years and I have never before truly thought the agent helping us was exceptional, but that is the only word that comes to mind for are experience with David Stone & his associates. We were shopping for a second home in a different state which added a level of difficulty. He totally adjusted his schedule to ours whenever we could be in town both while looking at properties and later when purchasing. He negotiated a great deal for us and after closing continued to assist us while we were back at our primary home. He even drove out to our vacation home and put up house numbers so others could identify the house. I would strongly recommend him to any one in need of an excellent realtor. His associate Terri Rasmussen, was also great. We spoke many times during our transactions and she was always knowledgable, polite & professional. A great team!
Working with David Stone was nothing short of an exceptional experience. He was patient as we saw, what felt like hundreds of houses, over the last year. Once we found the house, David "worked his magic" to get us the best deal possible. We had a few hiccups with the seller along the way, up to and including the day of closing. David was helpful, steady and extraordinarily professional in getting through those issues. I would recommend everyone I know call David Stone the next time they want to buy or sell a house.
This is the second home that David Stone has sold for us. He is a true professional in all areas, especially in communication, care and timely updates. He adds a personal touch that makes the process go smoothly!
David Stone provided remarkable service and expertise to the complex process of selling a remote home and acreage in Western Montana. His skills in marketing and promoting were excellent. I would highly and enthusiastically recommend Dave Stone.
I was moving from out of state to Kalispell, and was unable to get up here to see these homes I was interested in. Dave took great videos of them to send to me -> that's pretty awesome!
I wanted to share some feedback on my experience working with David in a recently completed transaction. The realty experience I had was impressive in a number of ways but I felt like Davids competence, patience and attention to detail were particularly noteworthy. Davids proactive input in helping a client to evaluate the long term value of each prospective purchase along with the potential market hazards, across a spectrum of options, made me feel much more confident in moving forward with my final decision. A realtor who prioritizes providing their client with the proper long term perspective, rather than simply trying to close a potential transaction quickly, is the type of professional that you have confidence in returning to again in future transactions. I couldnt be more appreciative of the benefit I received from Davids demonstrated competence, accessibility, and time sensitive advice during each phase of the process.
Very Professional with the overall process. A lot of attention to detail with our wants and wishes. Availability to answer questions and get information was great. The communication was clear and always there to answer any questions we had. Great to work with and looked after us like we were family.
Awesome down to earth guy. I'd work with him again and recommend him to anyone! He went above and beyond for my family with our search for our home. Complete with a bottle of champagne when we signed the paperwork.
In the last 35 years I have purchased and sold dozens of properties. Terri Rasmussen has proven to be the most accomplished provider of real estate support and expertise I have ever utilized. I will use Terri at every opportunity in the future. She has become a valued friend and trusted advisor. I highly recommend her and her partner Dave Stone.
I requested help from David Stone in the negotiations and construction of a lease for a professional office space in Kalispell, Montana. His masterful knowledge and understanding of the greater Kalispell area and the subtleties of the business community guided me and my attorney to a successful completion of the deal. David's expertise and negotiation skills were a valuable asset, and he was always professional, available, efficient, and prompt. I have recommended him to friends; I will seek his help again when I need him, and I highly recommend him to you.
David was very easy to work with and found houses that were good choices for us and ultimately the house we bought. He also found a buyer for our previous home and worked with a difficult buyer for my wife's building. He communicated well with us and made the experience of changing homes a smooth transition. He was very patient with us and listened to our concerns. If I were buying or selling any real estate, David is who I would go to and who I will recommend to anyone buying or selling.
My wife and I first contacted Dave on accident, we wanted to look at a home and he was the first agent listed on the Zillow page for that home so we figured he was the listing agent, he was not. We were so very lucky to have made that mistake! David was a true blessing for us. We don't believe we would have gotten our new home with out his tenacious pursuit on our behalf. David took us to many houses we wanted to see, but we soon found out why each of them were still on the market. Every time my wife wanted to see a home David made himself available to show her, and then graciously did it again when my wife wanted to show me a home she liked. When we finally found our new home David got us in to be the first showing we put in an offer at the end of the showing. David meet with the owner on her lunch break, and we had a buy sell agreement before the second showing (I believe their were three scheduled the first day after it was listed). No one else even had a chance. David really did everything he could to make sure the home that we feel in love with was ours. He even lent us a lawnmower to use until we could acquire one. If you want a real-estate agent who is truly on your side give David a call.
I have been very impressed with Dave Stone! We went to look at one property and after explaining what we were really looking for - he knew the perfect property! We are still working with him on obtaining the property and we really appreciate his attitude.
I have witnessed first hand David's professionalism and heart that he brings to the real estate transaction table. His knowledge of the community and of the industry is an added plus. He not only looks out for his clients best interests and is honest through out.... his clients end up as friends.
Having spent most of our adult lives in Asia my wife and I looked forward to purchasing our retirement home in the U.S.A. We returned briefly for a visit in August 2011. It was at that time that we met Dave Stone and requested his help in finding a home with a small acreage. At that time he helped us through the process of making a bid on a property being auctioned by his agency. Failing to win the bid Dave offered to help us find a home even though we would be returning to Asia. He said that we could search for a property on the internet and he could "make it happen" by showing the place to our son, emailing videos and handling the paperwork in order for us to have a place to live in when we retired in a year or two. He did just what he said he would do. We found just the property for which we were looking. He emailed forms which we signed and are turned. Unfortunately, our offer was rejected. Dave did not give up. We sent him more places to research for us, all the while keeping our eyes on the property which we desired. There were some very nice properties but we still hoped that, just maybe, the price of our special property would be reduced to where we could afford it. About the time we retired and returned to the States, Dave found out that the property that we desired was going to be sold on a "short sale". Dave shared with us the pros and cons of buying on a short sale and told us it could take six months or more. We told him that if he was willing to go through all the work and wait time, we were willing to give it a try. Since April 2013 We have been living in a very comfortable home in a beautiful place. Thanks to Dave Stone. Dave has a desire to find out what you are looking for and help you do it. He will help you weigh the pros and the cons. He is honest and will help you through the things you may not know understand purchasing a home. We found him to be very patient and a joy to work with. Our experience with Dave involved, home auction, regular purchase and short sale. We found him to be competent in each of these areas. For us, he went above and beyond that which we expected him to do. We highly recommend both his character and services.
David's expertise and commitment in making the sale of our commercial property was excellent. Although there were numerous challenges in the process, David was able to keep focused on helping the buyers work through the hurdles while keeping us informed and involved. David's sense of humor was appreciated, as was his approachable demeanor. Thank you David! Sincerely, Mrs. Peter Gross
David Stone was very professional in dealing with the sale of my home during the summer of 2013, and was extremely knowledgable about the area market. It was reassuring to know that I had such a great real estate agent on my side during the sales process. Not only did Dave do a fantastic job in listing my home, but he was fantastic on the back end with finding a new property for my wife and I to look at. I would recommend anyone who needs to sale their home to contact David Stone, as he is one of the best in the real estate business in Northwest Montana. If you want an immediate response David is the right fit for you. - Thanks for all of your help David.
Dave worked very hard to find us what we were looking for. He was very flexible with his time and showed us all the listings we were interested in whenever it was best for us. He is very knowledgeable. We feel that he was working in our best interest. He respected our budget and offered his knowledge and advice throughout the shopping and buying process. Would definitely recommend him!
Dave Stone of Kalispell, Montana showed us an ideal property on Flathead Lake. The property was listed in January and we were in our Winter home in Arizona. We were familiar with the location as Dave had shown us a number of listings in the area of Lakeside. Dave sent us photos, description, survey and a film showing the land, views and pointing out several problems with the egress and right of way. We decided to make an offer. Unfortunately, there were multiple offers and we did not purchase the land. However, thanks to Dave, we were in our comfort zone on the offer we made. We will continue to work with Dave, and we are confident that he will find us the property that we will be happy to own. Bill Haring and Carol McSweeney, Kalispell, Mt
I highly recommend Dave Stone as a real estate agent. He helped our family find new office space, and we were extremely satisfied with his services. Dave is professional, a great negotiator, and is highly conscientious. He is extremely personable and trustworthy, and you never question but that he has your best interest in mind in each transaction. Dave is honest, and you can count on him to always act with the highest amount of integrity. We have recommended him to many friends and family members, and will continue to use his services in the future.
Dave Stone is the man for real estate buying and selling in the Flathead! He knows all the angles and connections. He is honest and careful and gives all parties his complete respect and attention. He is scrupulous about covering every detail and you trust him completely. He doesn't play any games or try to pull anything over on either party. He is like the Nelson Mandela of real estate, leaving all parties satisfied. I recommend him without reservations.
David Stone has helped me with at least five private or commercial real estate transactions over a ten year period. He has utmost integrity is well liked and skilled and fun to do business with. He knows the key people that he needs to know and knows his community well.
We worked with David on a very difficult sale as we were in Oregon and was buying in Montana. His expertise in this field is outstanding. Our purchase was very difficult as he needed to gather information from banks and other lenders and he did so in a very timely manner. He kept us up to date with every detail and followed through with the job. I have and would recommend him and his services to anyone. Great guy to work with. HE GETS THE JOB DONE.
Being first-time home buyers, we had no idea how to even begin. Meeting Dave Stone was a blessing. Dave made looking for and buying a home a pleasure. Dave's knowledge in his field made everything very comfortable. We were not even sure what we wanted or where. Dave helped explain the entire process. From our first contact til the present, Dave was and still is always available to answer our questions. We were kind of picky, but Dave would spend an entire day, driving us around, always a smile on his face, always with an honest answer to any questions we had.I have recommended Dave to anyone who is looking to buy a home.Not only did we meet a great agent, we made a great friend.Jeff and D'Ann
David Stone has been awesome to deal with and communicates very well. He is very clear in explaining the process or will dig into the situation to find out what we need to know or what he can do to make the process better. We have had a difficult situation with our mortgage company but he has went to bat for us on more than one occasion and stuck by us to the very end. Our home hasn't sold yet, but he's working with our mortgage company so that it will be possible to sell soon. I would highly recommend David Stone to anyone. Thank you for the opportunity to allow us to express our gratitude. Russ & Rhonda Marks
We were introduced to Dave by a mutual friend. We were looking for a lake home site in Montana for a vacation home. Dave was simply amazing. He had done all the preliminary research on the different lakes and land that was available. He had market comparables completed as well as recent sales data. He had researched the best locations and market values and had short listed them for us. He took the time to orient us to each potential lot and its strengths and weaknesses. In short he made it incredibly easy for us to make a educated decision. Op top of all this Dave is just a really nice guy. We found him to be completely honest and trustworthy. He is also very helpful. We bought over 7 years ago and he still does favours for us like stopping by our property in the winter to make sure it is ok and letting the furnace guys in to make some repairs. He has also helped us by making suggestions on local trades people to do work on our property. In our opinion there isn't a better guy you could have on your side when looking for real estate in Montana.
Dave Stone was the perfect choice as a real estate professional for us. He not only gave wonderful advice on the fastest way to sell our home. But he also found the dream home we wanted. He is great at answering tons of questions. It was like having a good friend thru everything! Great job Dave!Joy and Eric Brechel
We couldn't have had a better experience with David! Moving from a different state he made us feel like part of the community at our first meeting. He helped us find our dream home! Dave was always in constant communication with us, and was very helpful in our decision making. He knows tons about the area and made the home searching process relaxing and fun. We would highly recommend David to anyone looking for a great realtor!
We are so happy that David was able to find us a property for our business. David is very professional and expert in his field! David is ethical and knows the area very well. David followed up with us in a timely manner and made the process of purchasing our first commercial property very easy to understand. What a wonderful experience!!
