Raised in Ennis, Montana, Chris Murphy knows the geography, communities, and businesses of Madison and Gallatin Counties like the back of his hand. Chris’s familiarity with the Southwest Montana real estate industry began at a young age, growing up in Ennis, where his family owned a real estate brokerage. He provides clients the invaluable benefits of his unmatched understanding of the local market. He combines a lifetime of experience and community relationships with decades of ongoing learning and a uniquely matter-of-fact ethos. Working with a sense of urgency and true transparency, Chris Murphy gets things done. He is widely respected for his authenticity, practical approach, and dedication to achieving results for his clients.
Chris earned his real estate brokers license in 1996, when still in college at MSU, and has been in the industry ever since. His expertise facilitates smooth transactions for both buyers and sellers — he can foresee and avoid potential pitfalls, and unearth diamonds in the rough that other brokers might miss. Not merely content to let potential real estate opportunities arise when they will, he takes pride in continuously exploring the market, sourcing deals through his many connections — and bringing the best of the best to his clients. In addition to buying and selling, Chris’s expertise extends to land planning, lot subdivisions, tax deferring exchanges, and more.
Chris Murphy met his future business partner, Michael Schreiner, at MSU in Bozeman in the mid-90s. They bonded over a mutual passion for skiing, although Michael explains, “There is no better skier on this planet than Murph.” Chris grew up ski racing at Bridger Bowl and Big Sky, before traveling the world as a professional skier on the World Extreme Tour, winning multiple titles. Today, Chris pursues cross-country motorcycle racing, bringing his high level of athleticism to dirt biking competitions and adventures. From their home in Ennis, Chris and his wife enjoy working hard in real estate, playing hard in the outdoors, and experiencing all that Montana has to offer.
