Sandy moved to Big Sky in 1996 after graduating from Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio. She fell in love with the landscape, people and the resort area immediately, and has been here ever since. Sandy has been a licensed Broker with Big Sky Properties for 10 years and has been one of 2 top-producing agents with the company for the past 2 years. Always the professional, Sandy has earned more certifications than any other Real Estate agent in Big Sky. She is a GRI (Graduate Realtor Institute), CRS (Certified Residential Specialist), EcoBroker, and ASR (Accredited Seller's Representative). She is also in the process of getting her Certified Short Sale Professional certification.
Sandy specializes in the entire Big Sky area, including Big Sky Resort, Moonlight Basin, The Club at Spanish Peaks, and the Yellowstone Club. Please visit her on-line at www.ownbigsky.com.
As all good professionals should, Sandy asked me to provide her with opinions on our recent experience working with her on our purchase of the subject property. She needn't have since we would have done so without prompting such was the great service she provided and our wish to compliment and thank her.
We contacted Sandy on the web and from that point forward she provided an exemplary level of service. From the first telephone inquiry through to letting us know we had closed, Sandy was always on top of everything - it seemed like she anticipated each of my calls!
Sandy took time to understand our expressed needs and desires. She then successfully worked with these while sensitively exploring other options both up and down in price so as to be sure we didn't overlook reasonable alternatives. The property we bought, was not on our list of candidates but one to which Sandy introduced us.
At no time did Sandy attempt to upsell or oversell us. Sandy loves Big Sky and her primary concern was that we will also enjoy Big Sky and she knows that the first step is ensuring buyers have a positive buying experience.
Buying and selling real estate is tough and emotional at the best of times and when you are 2500 miles away you need to trust your agent. Sandy quickly gained our trust and we would recommend her to anyone looking for that reassuring level of trust.
When you buy a property and can say that it was a pleasurable experience then you know you have been working with a first class realtor. That's Sandy; professional, personable, confident and caring.
I don't see Sandy as a realtor any more, I see her as a friend. Thanks Sandy.

Well, you've done it again. I don't know how you do it, but in a market that favored structures, you sold the only piece of land that changed hands in our neighborhood this season. We can't thank you enough.
I hate to admit this, but we talk to you so often (either myself or JD)that I feel like you are a family member. You never seem to be too busy to talk with us and I still can't figure out how you remember to keep us updated on such a regular basis. We deal with Realtors here in Napa, California and it's like pulling teeth to get them to return calls. Not only that, we feel like we need to keep a calendar during closing just to make sure things fall into place in the correct order. Not so with you. Sales and purchases happen so seamlessly, we've gotten spoiled.
You are what our family calls a "full service" partner with us on our investments. You always have your eye out for what you know we might want, are quick to send us updated information, give us expert knowledgeable advice, sprint through paperwork, and even make securing financing a one-call proposition. You are amazing.
What I appreciate almost as much as your energy and expertise is your uncanny ability to know exactly what is happening in the Big Sky market. You know everyone and everything that is for sale and you know it from a pragmatic point of view. The advice you give about pricing, when to sell, when to hang on, and how the market is moving is clear, positive, and always right on target. We trust you explicitly. We love having you on our side! What a lucky "stumbling on" of you it was that muddy May when we first looked at Big Sky.
Thank you again.

I am not generally a person that has a lot of faith in any type of sales person. My outlook has changed tremendously after my wife and I completed a real estate transaction with Sandy. With Sandy; "what you see is what you get." She is a genuine and hard working woman that is not just content on selling you just "anything"; she listens and understands completely what you're looking for. With her expertise and professionalism we found and purchased a place within two days! Not too bad for our first visit to Big Sky and being 1000 miles away.
I was also impressed with Sandy's drive to further educate herself in her field. She is a go getter and is very quick to return your phone calls and e-mails as well.
It is with my highest recommendation that you choose Sandy Revisky for all your real estate transactions; there is no other!

From our very first contact with Sandy, she did everything right. As an out of town buyer we were not very familiar with the Big Sky area, and Sandy's extensive brokerage experience in Big Sky coupled with her knowledge of the area proved invaluable. She was always available and willing to walk through lots of different ways of sizing up the opportunities in Big Sky. Following our initial contact with Sandy by email and then phone, she provided a wealth of information through mail and email to help us get comfortable with the area. Her ability to help us through the thought process around purchasing without making us feel like we were being pushed to an answer showed a great ability to provide information while understanding our perspective.
When we visited Big Sky, Sandy planned out a great weekend - making sure that we saw a wide range of properties and houses to get a great feel for the location and community. Additionally, she continually showed her flexibility as we scheduled showings around kids' naps and other activities we hoped to enjoy while in Big Sky. All around we had a fantastic experience thanks to Sandy's hard work and in the process found the ideal property to build our mountain home. Thanks again for all your help and guidance in our purchasing process!
-Pete and Stephanie Clemson
My wife and I first met Sandy around 2003. She was in the Summit 2nd floor foyer at a realtor’s kiosk and we were staying there for a weekend. Just for fun we asked her to show us what was available. We told her we were interested but we could not afford to buy at that time. She stated some clients look for years before buying. Well she was correct; we stayed in contact for 5 years before we finally bought.
Months would pass and I would not even be thinking about property at Big Sky, then I’d get this email from her about a deal she thought was a good one. She always kept us informed even though I told her it was not the right time to buy. My wife and I would go to Big Sky with our 4 children and always dream of owning a place. Obviously, the kids thought it was a great idea, too.
When the right time finally came, we had many choices; ski-in-ski-out, condos that require shuttling, a home on the mountain or a home in the Meadows. I definitely wanted ski-in-ski-out. The cost of some of those units for the size of our family made alternatives more attractive. Nevertheless, Sandy found ample “great deals” due to her connections in the area that would meet our needs. We looked at many units when we started in earnest and decided that a home in the Meadows was perfect for us. Not what I expected but I’m thoroughly pleased by where we ended up buying. The home is much bigger (sleeps 14 instead of 6-8 on the mountain) and has great rental income.
After we decided that home is what we wanted, Sandy really went to work for us. It had been so long since I purchased a home I forgot how much there is to do. She was constantly in touch with us, appraisers, the seller’s realtor, etc getting the sale through to our satisfaction. She would call me or fax something over to me when I needed it immediately even if she were at a social event on a weekend. She demanded the same from people she worked with. We are extremely grateful to all the hard work she put in to make our transaction go well. If it were not for an unavoidable conflict in her life, she would have even been at the closing.
In closing, my wife and I feel very strongly that Sandy is a genuine hard worker who takes care of her clients extremely well. On top of that she is professional, warm, nice, and very connected to the various people who can make a real estate transaction go well. We highly recommend Sandy Revisky to anyone looking for a real estate transaction in her area she represents.

We had the pleasure of having Ms. Sandy Revisky as our real estate agent when we decided to look for a special place in Big Sky, Montana. As we live in Florida and our trips to Montana were primary our skiing vacations, we were hoping to have a well-organized and knowledgeable agent who can show us a specific type of property that we had in mind in a short period of time. Sandy was everything that we could hope for. She arrived prepared and with a smile. We were able to see quite a few properties in only one day and Sandy had all the information that we wanted. She was very informative, pleasant and at no time did we felt that we are pushed into making a decision prematurely.
We ended up buying one of the properties that she showed us. Sandy completed the paperwork that was needed in our absence precisely and on time.
It is true that she has “an "easy job"” as she is presenting the properties in one of the most beautiful parts of the country, but she definitely made our property search and purchase easy as well. We feel that now we do not just own a small piece of Montana but have also a one more friend there.
We can recommend Sandy Revisky without any reservation.
-Vel and Ann Micovic
Sandy is terrific! With a great deal of perseverance and a willingness to listen to what we wanted, Sandy found the perfect place for us. She's knowledgeable, friendly, and very professional.

I would like to take a moment to say "Thank you," for all of your hard work, patience and professional expertise that enabled us to purchase three unbelievable Big Sky properties. From our very first conversation, you have been, not only a Realtor to me and Chris, but a friend. Immediately, we knew that you were someone that we could trust. I know that we have probably driven you crazy over the past several months with all of our questions and persistent interest in the Big Sky market and expansion.
You are truly one of the most devoted and accessible Realtors that we have ever worked with. All hours of the day you have gone out of your way to make yourself available and present things to us before we could even ask the questions. Your extensive knowledge of the Big Sky market and future expansion plans have made us even more confident in your ability to secure us the best deal and make sure that we walked away with whatever property we wanted.
The referrals that you gave us for mortgage options were all excellent options. We were able to work with a couple of them to secure some unbelievable financing. Thank you for following up with our purchase process, even helping us several days after our closings.
Having worked with many Realtors, from Florida, North Carolina, Tennessee, and other realtors in the Big Sky area, Chris and I have determined that the two most important qualities in a Realtor are efficiency and honestly. We thank you for going over the top in both areas. I would highly recommend you to my friends and family (obviously, you are working with my parents already) and anyone else who wants a top of the line real estate experience in Big Sky.
Chris and I look forward to continuing to work with you for many years to come.
-Acra Samuels
Sandy Revisky does such a grand job, you feel as though she's working just for you, not for the Seller. Sandy is not only warm and friendly; she also intelligent, well-organized and fair.
-Gil Goldberg
Thank you so much for your efforts in the sale of our home at 632 Crail Creek Club. We were amazed that you were able to get a contract on our home near our asking price within five weeks after we listed the property with you. Your aggressive advertising certainly helped, and we greatly appreciate your ability to convince the Buyers and their agent that they should make an offer even though they were leaving Big Sky shortly after seeing our home for the first time.
You were also instrumental in convincing us to buy our home in Big Sky a few years ago, and you helped us find the ideal property to fit our needs. I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone who is seeking to buy or sell a residence in the Big Sky area.
-Bruce and Barbara Kropschot
Sandy Revisky made buying our home in Big Sky a pleasure. Sandy, was always in tune with what we were looking for. She was constantly searching for the ideal house for us while we were in Florida. Sandy has a great ability to know and had a feel for properties that we would like to own. We found a wonderful home site with a house that was partially built, knowing that Sandy was there to be our eyes and ears. Numerous pictures were e-mailed to us constantly so we could enjoy seeing our home to completion. Sandy was so thoughtful to even store our excess baggage from our sold condo in Colorado!! Never once did we feel as if any phone calls to her were a bother. Sandy Revisky is someone you can depend on and know that she and BIg Sky Properties are your allies and friends. We love our home and still keep in touch with Sandy whenever we are in Big Sky. Sandy Revisky and Big Sky Properties were wonderful to work with. If we ever consider another move Sandy will be the person we call first.
-Madi and Elliot Wortzel
I highly recommend Sandy Revisky as a real estate agent for the Big Sky area. I have worked with Sandy on two different real estate deals and found her professional, knowledgeable and dedicated to doing the best she could for me. Anytime I am personally doing anything anything in real estate, she is the first and only person I call and the agent to whom I refer my friends.
I have also worked with Sandy on the Gallatin Canyon Volunteer Fire department and have had the opportunity to observe her commitment to her community. She is honest and truly a quality individual.
-Don Loyd
Our property purchase at Big Sky through Sandy Revisky at Big Sky Properties went seamlessly. Sandy was professional and straightforward at every step. Our email, phone and fax correspondences and questions were answered immediately and thoroughly. Sandy's keen knowledge of past and present listings and prices, as well as various important market conditions were extremely useful for our decision making.
I would, and will, recommend Sandy to anyone interested in buying or selling property at Big Sky.
-Paul Beck
Harold and I would like to take this opportunity to tell you what a wonderful job you did for us in selling our condo in Big Sky, Montana. We had our condo on the market for four months with another realtor in the area and it was only shown twice in that period of time. In the process of watching the local papers during that four month period, we determined that you were the realtor we wanted to use. It was very obvious that you had a very aggressive style which we thought was impressive.
Within a few weeks of placing our condo with you, it was under contract. We have been extremely impressed with your professionalism and expertise. We have already and will continue to recommend you to both buyers and sellers in the area.
-Harold and Mary Harring
I am delighted with the opportunity to offer a recommendation to others regarding the real estate services which you provided while we were in the process of buying our condo in Big Sky.
You answered my questions thoroughly, considered our needs regarding our purchases as real and honest, and helped us complete our purchase as promptly as was possible.
In additions, you listened attentively and helped us understand Boyne's requirements accurately.
-O"Neal Browder
We sincerely appreciate the service and support you provided during the purchase of the property at 1900 Little Coyote Road. I"m pleased to let you know that my sister Margaret and I are impressed by your efficiency and promptness at every step of the purchase process.
We were particularly grateful to you for your involvement in the 1031 exchange transfer, as it was important that we met very tight deadlines in this transaction. Please convey our thanks also to Wendy at Montana Title for her help in this matter.
All my family thinks it both fortunate and lucky to have had your guidance throughout this process. They will not hesitate to contact you for any help and we will certainly recommend you to others who are looking to purchase or sell real estate in Montana.
-Barbara E. Fischer
Many thanks again for helping us with our real estate endeavors over the years. You've aided us in creating a new home here in Big Sky. As our agent and friend we value your integrity, patience and great attitude.
-Martha and Tom
My husband & I moved to Big Sky in 2000 and rented for awhile until we felt like we were ready to find the right place to settle down. We had never owned our own home before and were unsure of whether to do our own research and try to manuver the buying process ourselves or hire a real estate agent. We were a bit intimidated with the idea of trying to handle all the legality issues ourselves since we had never gone through the process before.
We were referred to Sandy Revisky, Big Sky Properties, through a mutual friend and upon meeting with her we immedialtely felt at ease. Sandy showed us several properties that were in our price range and pointed out the advantages and disadvantages of one location vs. another. I was impressed with how honest and professional Sandy was and we knew that she truly had our best interests at heart. Sandy walked us through each step of the buying process and made sure that we were comfortable with our decisions. She made the entire process so easy for us that my husband and I commented how fortunate we felt to not feel like we were "stressed out" like many of our friends said they were when they had bought their first home.
We enjoyed our condo in the Meadow Village for about four years and then contacted Sandy again when we were ready to expand our living space after having our daughter. Sandy successfully sold our condo within the time frame we had hoped for and was also was our agent when we found a piece of land that we wanted to buy and build a house on.
I truly feel like Sandy made our dream of building our own home in Big Sky possible by matching her expertise of the real estate market with just what we were looking for.

Sent to Broker/Owner of Big Sky Properties in 2002:
Dear Mr. Hall,
Your sales associate, Sandy Revisky, is stellar. Some months ago I sent a general inquiry to your company about the Cedar Creek Condos. Sandy responded. We did not buy anything at Cedar Creek, but we did buy a home in Phase 2 of Southfork.
Sandy's service was spectacular! I can not think of anything - even with 20/20 hindsight - she should have done differently. Sandy is smart and energetic. She is absolutely dedicated to her client.
We snowshoed into property not accessible by road when Sandy was a day overdue with her son, Fletcher. When we returned to Big Sky, Fletcher was a few days old. He accompanied us from house to house. Absolutely nothing stops or slows this lady down!
Any client of your company, who has Sandy on their side, is indeed lucky and well served.
-Lester Loble
Thanks for a job well done. We were very happy with your prompt and eager help throughout the transaction. Although we were frustrated with our Seller's delay at the end, you stepped up and made that portion of the transaction more palatable.
-Amy and Jeff Mader
