Montana Landvest Inc.

Montana Landvest Inc. was established in 1987 and has operated continuously since as a Billings, Montana-based family office. The Nemetz family — including Russ Nemetz (President) and Jesse Nemetz (Vice President) — manages the firm's real estate brokerage and direct investment activities. The firm's core asset class is real estate, spanning ranch, farm, timber, and recreational land across the Rocky Mountain region. Its investment approach includes both fee-simple acquisitions and strategic development projects, such as timberland management and conservation easement partnerships. Notable holdings and transactions are not publicly disclosed in detail. Montana Landvest also maintains an energy and renewables practice, advising on and investing in wind and solar rights on larger land parcels. The firm lists properties ranging from working cattle ranches to luxury retreats, and it provides advisory services on land-use planning, mineral rights, and water rights. A structural differentiator is that Montana Landvest functions as both a licensed real estate brokerage and a direct capital allocator — giving it a sourcing edge for off-market properties while also executing its own principal investments in land and energy assets. The firm does not operate as a traditional co-investment vehicle and does not solicit outside capital from LPs.
