**★★★★★ — HU-57936016, July 2019**

> Paul and crew at Montana Build are top notch!  As a real estate agent, I am very careful about who I do business with - the builder needs to be reliable, reachable and able to create a high quality product.  Montana Build does just that.

**★★★★★ — BEVERLY MCGRATH, July 2019**

> Montana Build came highly recommended to us by two very satisfied and happy owners of homes built by Paul McElroy and his professional team. During our first conversation with Paul we found that he listened carefully to our ideas, what was important to include in our house and the parameters of our building budget. Paul’s talent as a builder / designer was soon made evident to us in the design he sent us which included everything we had previously discussed with him. All was carefully and expertly laid out on the house plans.
>
> The building process went smoothly with regular communication, updates and an openness to discuss revisions when needed. We always felt like we knew exactly what was happening and where we were in terms of the building process and completion date. Paul and his team are easy to work with and as time passed it felt like we were working with friends.
>
> We felt like the Montana Build Team always had our best interests at heart. Any difficulties that arose were handled professionally and with a positive attitude as a solution was determined.
>
> We are very pleased with the quality of work, the materials, craftmanship and overall look of the exterior and interior of our house. It is aesthetically pleasing and beautiful in design.
>
> We can say that it truly matters to the Montana Build Team that we love our house. When we expressed to Paul how beautiful our home is and how happy we are to be living there his response to us was – “That is exactly what I / we live for at Montana Build . . . our goal is to make it perfect.” To which our response was – “We know you will. That is what makes you an exceptional builder and an exceptional person.”
>
> We highly recommend Montana Build, Paul McElroy and his Montana Build Team.

**Comment from Montana Build, Inc.:**

> Thank you for your kind words! It was a pleasure to work with you and your husband. We are so pleased that you love your new home!

**★★★★★ — Sheri Meadows, July 2019**

> I have worked with Montana Build for many years and I absolutely love their team!  They work hard and get things done.  They also have a keen eye for the details that make their houses a home.

**Comment from Montana Build, Inc.:**

> Thank you so much Sheri! We thoroughly enjoy working with you!

**★★★★★ — Cathy Hall, April 2014**

> On a road trip to visit National Parks we decided that the Flathead Valley was the place for us. It was destiny that the Parade of Homes weekend was while we were there - and that we went to Saddlehorn - and that the Colter Cabin was open although it was not part of the Parade. It was love at first site! After having seen the workmanship of Montana Build on the Parade Home we found what we wanted in the Colter Cabin. It was our style, the right size, and with a few tweaks by the architect and working with Paul - we had the perfect home. The quality of the home is more than anyone could ask for. It's solid, well-built, full of character and of course beautiful! Let Montana Build - build your dream home!

**★★★★★ — ewnissen, March 2014**

> I refer my clients to Paul & his team for a few reasons:  1) they are great a working to deliver a quality product that fits in my clients budget, 2) they manage time & cost well throughout the project, and 3) they deliiver expertise & professionalism every time.
>
> Paul & his team have positive attitudes towards finding solutions that work.  They are funto be around and work with.
>
> I see all types of builders.  I trust Paul & Montana Build.

**★★★★★ — Whitefish Real Estate, Sept. 2013**

> As a fifteen year owner of a real estate company, I have worked with many builders. Every time, I have experienced plusses with the builders. Negatives are rare. Most are pretty good. However, every now and then one comes along that sets the bar higher than most. Montana Build is one such company. Their attention to detail is superior. The finished product is always more than promised. I like that. Pricing is fair and accurate. Customers like that.  For me, it's the way they do business that is even more impressive. It's like working with close friends. The owner, Paul McElroy, is a buyer's advocate of such repute, no one ever has to ask, "so where are we at?" McElroy and his staff are proactive from start to finish. Communications are A+. They make the experience comfortable. The buyer feels they are respected and their best interest is always paramount.
>
> I highly recommend Montana Build, Paul McElroy and his professional team.
