Ben was recommended to us by a relative and we are so glad we went with him. We came into town and only had four days to house hunt. Ben did a ton of research and spent many hours driving us all over Flathead County. When we found the house we really loved, it was out of our price range. Ben did an excellent job helping us to negotiate the right price so we were able to afford it, yet it was still a fair price for the sellers. Ben was with us every step of the way, always easy to contact, and [...]

We had been looking for a lakefront property for several years and Ben graciously kept us informed as properties came on the market. He also helped us in determining price offers based on current [...]

Ben was fantastic to work with on the purchase of our new home. Response time and professionalism made the buying process much less stressful. Would recommend Ben to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home in the Flathead.

We were referred to Ben VanHelden by our Real Estate Agent in Washington. Ben met with us and determined the home we were looking for very quickly. We found our home on the first day. The whole negotiation and purchase process was done so easily thanks to Ben and his team. We highly recommend using Ben for your real estate needs.

Without Ben's counsel, we would not have won the bank auction for the house we wanted. We would not have found the house or won the auction without his expertise. When we needed to sell the house years later, we did not hesitate to ask Ben to be our agent. He made the entire process clear and smooth. He is trustworthy and excellent in his field.

Ben's what you look for in a real estate professional - knowledgeable of the market, honest in his dealings and advice, and proactive with resolving questions and tracking down options / alternatives. Highly recommended.

I have purchased at least 8 properties with Ben for significant dollars totaling 10's of millions of dollars. Ben is down to earth, honest, full of integrity, a family man, loyal, consistently effective and not pushy, very knowledgeable of the market place and people and I like being around him. I trust him. He has brought me incredible deals and delivered on exactly what he said he would.
