Michelle Van Dyke- Berkshire Hathaway, Montana Properties

I was born right here in the Ruby Valley in Sheridan, Montana. After graduating from Twin Bridges High School, I attended Montana State University-Bozeman on a welding scholarship and graduated with a degree in Public Relations and a minor in Marketing. My husband, Jim, and I ranched in the Gallatin Valley for 10 years before moving back to the Ruby Valley to continue the family ranching tradition of raising registered Angus cattle. We also raised one beautiful daughter who now resides in Bozeman, Montana.

I joined Headwaters Realty in 1997 bringing a vast knowledge of the local area and a background of land stewardship which I try to pass on to my contacts. My specialty is ranch and recreational properties but I pride myself on a broad base of knowledge to represent all buyers. After 2 years of courses and a battery of tests, I acquired my Accredited Land Consultant (ALC) designation through the Realtors Land Institute, a national network of Realtors who market ranch and commercial properties. There are only few Realtors in the state of Montana who have acquired this coveted designation.

If I'm not in the office or showing property, you can bet I'm on a horse. My passion is cutting horses and it takes a successful career in Real Estate to fuel my cutting habit.
