Looking to Buy or Sell in Montana? Meet the Broker/Agent Who Puts People First

If you're thinking about buying or selling a home in Montana, you want more than just a transaction—you want someone who truly understands the heart of where you live. That's where Kelly Bishop (Kelly Bonnell), broker and leader of Rustic Elegance Montana Living, comes in.

As a fifth-generation Montanan raised where neighbors were family and community mattered, Kelly brings those deep-rooted values to every real estate interaction. "Montana is about legacy for me," she says. "The land, the people, and the way of life that gets passed down through generations." 

Her century-plus family history in Montana and her personal connection to rural communities give her an unmatched understanding of what buyers and sellers really care about—integrity, expertise, and results that last.

With over 25 years of experience in both real estate and insurance, Kelly has built her career on helping people protect and find their piece of the American West. From working with top architects like Frank Cikan on Dennis Quaid's Paradise Valley home to serving corporate clients throughout Montana, she's handled it all. Her specialization in farm and ranch properties means she understands that these aren't just transactions—they're legacies.

Whether you're relocating to Big Sky Country, upgrading your ranch, downsizing in retirement, or listing your family property, Kelly is the kind of broker who will go above and beyond to get you where you want to be. From coordinating with Nevada clients through her dual-market expertise to providing comprehensive insurance guidance through Montana Legacy Insurance, she's a problem solver with decades of "whatever it takes" experience.

Her combination of traditional Montana values and cutting-edge market knowledge gives her clients the best of both worlds. As co-founder of Rustic Elegance Magazine and mentor to over 250 agents, she's not just about closing deals—she's about opening doors to Montana dreams.

And when you work with Kelly, you're backed by the strength of Rustic Elegance Montana Living, the team she built on integrity, professionalism, and deep local knowledge. "I knew Montana deserved a brokerage that truly understood our way of life—not just for me, but for every client we serve," Kelly says.

When she's not helping clients, you might catch her enjoying time with her husband Jesse B. Lucero and their three children and grandson in beautiful Livingston, Montana. Her love for the community runs five generations deep—and it shines through in everything she does.

So if you're ready to make a move, don't just choose any agent. Choose someone who's deeply invested in your success and your Montana story.

Work with someone who knows Montana, lives Montana, and has Montana in her DNA.
