Tom Gierhan — ERA Landmark Real Estate, Livingston MT

Tom Gierhan

Broker · ERA Landmark Real Estate · Livingston, MT

I grew up in this business by learning this valley. Before I got my real estate license in 1997, I was the accounting manager for Yellowstone National Park’s concessionaire — which means I came to know the land, the people, and the rhythms of life in the Yellowstone corridor from the ground up.

My wife Shelley and I chose Livingston as our home, and we’ve never looked back. Our son Josh was born here. We know our neighbors. We know which ranches have good water and which roads turn to soup in March. If you want a straight, experienced take on this market — not a sales pitch — that’s what I’m here for.
