Featured City Libby
By USEPA Environmental-Protection-Agency - Libby, Montana - date unknown, Public Domain
Settled in the 1880’s, Libby was named after miner Stephen Allen’s daughter, Elizabeth, or Libby. In 1919 a vermiculite mine was discovered near Libby and by 1963 the mine produced 80% of the vermiculite produced in the entire world. The byproducts of the mine resulted in Libby being declared an EPA Superfund site and the area went through a very challenging period until about 2015.
The area now relies on the tourism industry because of the inherent beauty and nature. The nearby Kootenai Falls and the Swinging Bridge were featured in the 1994 movie The River Wild.
The Revenant was also filmed in the area in 2015
Libby is known as the “City of Eagles.” You will find several eagle sculptures around town including three 60-foot eagles, one at either end of town.

NEW LISTINGS - last 30 DAYS
Today, many local real estate sites provide you with comprehensive searches of publicly listed properties from one or more Multiple Listing Services. Therefore, instead of reinventing the same wheel, we are utilizing Homes.com for the local listings and actually belong to a nationwide MLS.
It's important to note that many homes are sold before they officially hit the market. With our exclusive Perfect Home Finder Program, you can access unlisted and pre-market homes tailored to your specific needs in your desired locations. We uncover off-market properties that no one else is aware of, much like savvy investors do. This unique service is proprietary, so reach out to West Montana Homes to simplify your home search.
