Bates has earned a reputation for unquestioned personal and professional integrity, providing genuine personal concern for clients, seeking always to understand their singular goals and motives. Attorneys, accountants and other brokers appreciate his attention to detail and his comprehensive knowledge of land and water values throughout the Mountain States. Pat played college baseball as a catcher at Brigham Young University and spent three seasons in the Los Angeles Dodgers minor league organization before settling into the real estate business in 1967.

Their passion for the mountains pulled Mike and his wife, Nancy, back to Montana and in December 2001, after years looking for the right man, Pat invited this remarkable young man to join in opening the Bozeman Office. Mike's strong ranching background, tireless work ethic, and extraordinary desire to first serve and then befriend sellers and buyers of high quality ranch, recreational and farm properties combined with impeccable integrity have already provided him a great career handling premier
