Tara Harbin | Bigfork Real Estate REALTOR®/Broker

Growing up in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, I gained an appreciation for the outdoors and what the land has to offer. I moved to Montana in 1992 to be closer to my family, after my brother “discovered’ the Flathead Valley. In 1996 I met my husband Steve, and together we enjoy everything Montana. We spend as much time as we can hiking, biking, kayaking, camping, fishing and hunting.

Coming from a family with a real estate background, it has always been in my blood. Through our love of Montana and the surrounding land, Steve and I developed many subdivisions in the Bigfork area in the early 2000’s. As the economy shifted, so did we, and in 2008 we began managing property. Steve and I currently own and operate a very successful property management company, Rocky Mountain Property Management. We manage long term rentals and house watch for absentee owners in and around Bigfork. The best part of our job is meeting and working with the wonderful people of our community.

With the hope and goal of always offering my clients the best service possible I decided it was time to add real estate sales to my services. I received my real estate salespersons license in 2015, and as quickly as possible, received my real estate brokers license. With my background in real estate development and management, I can help you find your dream home or piece of property to build that home. If it’s an investment you are looking for, I can help you with that as well. With my contacts and the relationships I have built with people over the years, I can facilitate the sale of your property in a timely and efficient manner.

I love Montana and all it has to offer; the people, the beauty, the opportunity. Let me share my love of Montana with you and help you find your dream home or piece of paradise.  Let Me Show You Home!

Tara is the absolute best of the best. She had a property listed that we knew would go immediately and we were out of state buyers. We called her and with the use of facetime, she put us at total ease with purchasing the property sight unseen in person. Her list of local contractors is extensive and were very helpful. Both she and the sellers were wonderful to work with and this property is a dream come true for us. A shout out to her managing broker, Jeff, and Vicki at Insured Titles as well. You can't go wrong with Tara on either side of a deal.

Tara Harbin was an amazing broker in helping us through the process of searching and then finding our house. We lived out of state for almost a year before we moved to MT. Tara kept in touch and constantly sent us information on homes. Once we finally moved and rented a house in MT. She continued to look for houses and she set up walk-throughs! She was always available and sometimes worked into the evenings and on weekends! Once we finally found the house we wanted she help set-up the inspection and cleaning which really took the burden off of us! Her personality and kindness made buying a house so easy! We were actually sad when we closed on the house because we knew we weren’t going to see her as much! We plan to stop in from time to time just to say hello because we think of her as a friend first and realtor second! If you are looking for an amazing realtor to help you find a home! She is the one to go to!

My wife and I have worked with Tara Harbin for over a year, both in property management and in selling our property. We could not have asked for better service. She is a knowledgeable person, a patient person, and very easy to work with. We recommend Tara without reservation.

Tara is an outstanding real estate agent. She had the almost impossible situation of finding us a home. Not really knowing for sure what we wanted. She stuck with us until we found the perfect home. Tara was great every step of the way.
