Kurtis became involved in real estate as an appraiser in 1998 and received a real estate license in 1999; in 2001 he received his Brokers license and opened a small real estate sales and consulting office in Bozeman.  Kurtis was born in Montana, actually in Missoula, (but we don’t talk about that much here in Bobcat country) and moved to Bozeman at an early age attending Longfellow, Willson and Bozeman Senior High schools.  Kurtis also holds a Bachelors of Science degree in Business Management. Having been raised here, Kurtis knows where some of the skeletons are buried and may in fact have helped bury a few himself.    

In May 2010 Kurtis closed his small office and joined Coldwell Banker RCI Realty.
