We hear about it when we're wrong. Here's what happens after.
"A pipe burst on a Sunday night. A tech was on-site within the hour and I had photos and a cost estimate before I woke up."
Brandy Thorpe
Owner, single-family rental — Billings, Montana
"Our vacancy rate dropped from 11% to about 4% in the first year. Their leasing team just answers the phone, which sounds small until you've dealt with the alternative."
Graye Parnell
Owner, 24-unit portfolio — Lordwith Apartments, Billings, Montana
"I've had two other managers before these guys. This is the first one that sends a statement I can actually read in under five minutes."

Twelve things to know about working with Rocky Mountain Estate Management.
Talk with our teamWhat properties do you manage?
We manage single-family rentals, multifamily properties, mixed-use properties, and homeowners associations in Billings, Montana. Tell us about your property so we can discuss the right scope of service.
What management fees will I pay?
Just an onboarding fee and a monthly management fee. There are no other owner management fees. We explain both amounts in your proposal before you get started.
What is the onboarding fee for?
It covers getting your property set up for management: gathering records, reviewing the property and existing leases, planning the handoff, and connecting you to your owner account.
What does the monthly management fee cover?
It covers our ongoing management work, including leasing and resident communication, maintenance coordination, accounting, and owner reporting. We outline the services for your property in your management agreement.
Do you charge extra to place a resident or renew a lease?
No. We do not add separate leasing, tenant placement, or lease renewal fees to your owner management charges.
Are repairs and property expenses included in the management fee?
The management fee pays for our management services. Actual repairs, materials, vendor invoices, and other property operating expenses are separate property costs. We do not add maintenance coordination fees or markups to maintenance invoices.
How do we get started?
Contact us with the property address, property type, and what you need help with. We discuss your goals, review the property, and provide a written proposal with your onboarding and monthly management fees.
Can you take over a property with residents already in place?
Yes. We review the current leases and records with you, plan the transition, and coordinate resident communication so everyone understands the handoff.
How do you market rental properties?
Through Rentvine and our marketing platforms, we promote rentals across leading listing and marketing sites such as Zillow, RentFinder, Apartments.com, Trulia, HotPads, Zumper, PadMapper, and Rentals.com. Our website also showcases properties with photos, details, and individual listing links when available.

Our team coordinates resident requests, repairs, and ongoing property care exclusively through our local vendor network. We believe in supporting local businesses and connecting property owners with tradespeople in our community. We discuss maintenance communication and authorization arrangements with you during onboarding.
