Rena is exceptional! She goes above and beyond what is expected. She is quick to respond to text and calls, and always willing to help accommodate your schedule and needs.
I highly recommend her services.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Rena Saunier. She helped me sell my dad’s home after he passed away, during what was already an incredibly difficult and overwhelming time for our family.
I was handling the sale from across the country, and Rena truly went above and beyond from beginning to end. She kept me informed, answered countless questions, helped coordinate repairs and everything that needed to be done locally, and was always there when something unexpected came up. There were several challenges along the way, and I never once felt like I was dealing with them alone.
What stood out most was how much Rena genuinely cared. She didn’t treat this as just another transaction or another house to sell. She understood what this home and this process meant to me and my family, and she handled everything with patience, compassion, professionalism, and an incredible amount of dedication.
Having someone I could completely trust when I was hundreds of miles away was invaluable. Rena made an extremely stressful situation so much easier, and I will always be grateful for everything she did for us.
If you are looking for a real estate agent who will truly advocate for you, communicate with you, and go the extra mile when it matters, I could not recommend Rena more highly. Five stars honestly doesn’t feel like enough.

Shannon you navigated all those challenges incredibly well and I really appreciated your positivity throughout the transaction. I am very grateful I was able to ease some of the stresses you were enduring. Your review is very kind,
thank you 🥰
As a real-estate investor, I have utilized realtors in numerous states and only wish that Rena Saunier with Big Sky Properties could represent BuyRite Properties Inc on every investment.
Rena has proven to be superior, compared to other realtors, in all aspects of real-estate. Rena has impressed me with her constant updated knowledge of the real-estate market, her negotiating skills, her knowledge of the financial side, buying or selling and her willingness to provide detailed information on every potential investment.
It has been a pleasure working with Rena and I will continue to utilize Big Sky Properties in the future.
Sincerely,
Howard Day

I’ve known Rena for a long time and worked with her professionally for about eight years. She’s incredibly kind, caring, and always goes above and beyond. With her background in title, drive to remain up to date on Montana State law, and consistent examinations of the market in our Valley and across the country, she is an invaluable resource and truly delivers a top-notch experience. I trust her expertise completely!

My fiance, my Dad and I worked with Rena after a recommendation from a friend, and we couldn’t have been happier with her as our realtor! She is kind, easy to work with, responsive and really knows her stuff! She grew up in the valley and really knows her way around. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor in the Flathead Valley area.
Derrick knew the area incredibly well. We popped in unplanned and within 36 hours he figured out what we were looking for and showed it to us. We didn’t even know what we wanted. He was incredibly accommodating and gave more time than was fair of us to ask. He showed us the first property on the second try, and if we had listened to him, it would have been the first try. Could not recommend more.
Derek helped us find the amazing home we now own today. My husband and I both appreciated his vast knowledge and expertise. He was also extremely patient with us, as we were total newbies to this process. He helped guide us the home buying process, was very responsive and answered all our questions. I will be recommending Derek to my brother & sister in law who will be moving to the area soon, and to anyone looking to buy a home in the area!
Thank you Derek!
I would 10/10 recommend Erin for any real estate needs. She helped my wife and I find the perfect house in a location that we are really excited about and she didn’t stop working for us from start to finish. No doubt that if you work with Erin, you will be 100% satisfied.
Derek did a great job representing us and surpassed typical agent responsibilities. He meet with the sellers and their agent to negotiate terms and conditions on the two properties we were buying and making sure repairs were completed per the inspection report in our absence. Derek was very professional working with us, as well as other agents. He allocated as much time as needed in searching for the right property for us and was always on time. He exhibited great knowledge about the area we were interested in and his communication and follow up was outstanding. This made the entire experience from 1st contact to the handing over of the keys smooth and void of issues largely due to his attention to detail. Derek quickly earned our trust and respect and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate.

Rena is amazing! We would not have been able to purchase the home we are in if it had not been for her. She took the time to answer all of my questions, which as a first time home buyer there were plenty. Rena went above and beyond for us. She is extremely knowledgeable and was able to walk us through the home buying process step by step. I can't say enough about her. If you are looking for an agent do yourself a favor and go with Rena.
We found Derek to be a pleasure to work with. He answered any questions we had, and worked for us in negotiating on our new home.
We would definitely recommend him to friends buying or selling their homes!
Hutson stuck with my family for 2 yrs & helped me search through EVERY property in our price range until we found the perfect home for our family. He didn't give up on us, even when we nearly did.
Hutson was extremely helpful in our journey through the process of purchasing a property. He went out of his way to provide whatever assistance was needed, and often went well beyond what we would have expected from an agent. Great job!
Recently we used Derek as our representative in our search and purchase of a residential lot in Whitefish. Our process started months prior to our actual arrival. Derek during this time was most helpful in answering phone calls, giving local knowledge, and certainly in sending us listings for properties that 1) were where we were interested in and 2) were in the price range of our proposed budget.
Upon arrival, Derek met us at the time we requested and blocked off
adequate time to only work with us - he was not in a rush. Later, when we decided upon a particular lot, we learned of some issues that needed more information. Derek had local knowledge and experience that helped immensely in investigating and clearing these issues. Negotiation was called for in our instance and he walked us through some ideas on how to proceed with this. We were finally able to purchase the lot we wanted. Now, all of this occurred during August which is one of the busiest times for a realtor in the Whitefish area and Derek's potential commission was not nearly as great with our purchase as it would be for a higher end
completed home there. This did not affect his responsiveness or enthusiasm. Could not be happier with the service we received from
Derek!
Hutson was our hero for buying and selling our home! He helped tremendously in buying our home. Our life changed and we had to sell it just a short time later and was able to get it sold quickly and for what we needed! We had a wonderful experience! Highly recommend his services!
We have dealt with other agents around the US during our 30 year military career. He has been very supportive and professional during our search to return home to our families. He is local, knowledgeable and willing to go the extra mile to close a deal. We would highly recommend Derek Blanchard!!
Working on our real estate purchase with Hutson was fantastic. From beginning to end, viewing listings till closing, Hutson made sure that all areas of the sale were being handled properly along with following-up at every stage of the process which was great. It was really nice having someone so knowledgeable of the area we were interested in since we were from out of town looking to move into an area we were not familiar with. Hutson was also able to help us find a great mortgage company for our loan and gave us great references for services we might need. We were so lucky to have found Hutson to help with our home purchase, he made it a wonderful experience!
Hutson went above and beyond in getting us in this house. There were plenty of challenges along the way. He talked us threw every step, never making us feel pressured .
Without him we wouldn't have our dream home in Glacier!
Can NOT thank this man enough. Very honest, fair and just a nice guy!
Another great experience!!!
Our purchase was done out of state and Derek made the experience painless and actually exciting. Derek was very professional and had the experience that customers need and welcome. He knew the area, people and processes. This was the easiest buy we have ever experienced. I would highly recommend Derek Blanchard for your next home or lot purchase and we look forward to dong more business with Derek in the future.
