Anita & Jay Sherley

Anita has been working full time in real estate since 2005 and has found a true calling in helping people pursue their dreams. Anita is highly skilled in real estate transactions and brings her wisdom and years of experience to play in service her clients. Jay joined the Big Sky Brokers team with Anita in 2015. He has managed and owned businesses in town and brings to the table an expertise in negotiation skills and, as an avid sportsman, an in-depth knowledge of land and ranch properties as well as recreational areas and opportunities. Jay and Anita’s daughter, Cassi, joined the team in 2018, bringing with her a passion for organization, experience in graphics design and a love of our community and the surrounding area.

We have a passion for this city, its growth, people and all who value its beauty. We also value hard work, good communication, people and their stories. Our experience in real estate is marked by not only our knowledge of the market and specifics of this industry but also how we deeply care about those we serve. Many of our past clients have said that what started as simply looking for a new home developed into finding friends for life. We value your time and individual needs along with attention to detail within every transaction.

We also value knowledge of the properties and areas in and around Helena, working to stay on the cutting edge of market knowledge, as well as developments and the regulations for expansion and building in the county. Anita has been certified with GRI, ABR and taken several CRS classes which simply means she is educated in every aspect of real estate and investments. Jay is also certified with GRI and has done many classes specialized to ranch and land sales.

Outside of real estate, we have been married 36+ years, raised 3 children as well as many others who came to stay. We are immensely proud of our 11 grandkids who all live nearby. In 2006, we founded a non-profit for young adults called Life Houses, Inc., are former Bigs for Big Brothers Big Sisters and avid supporters of the Carroll College Athletic Association (Jay sits on the board). Jay loves the outdoors, hunting, fishing, and telling stories of those adventures, while Anita makes the most of the Helena area through biking, hiking, or kayaking. Mostly, we love having friends gather in the kitchen to have a glass of wine and share life.
