Ranch Sales, MT
Licensed in MT, WY
Kebi Smith is a fourth-generation Montanan and cattle rancher, raising commercial cattle—from calving through finishing. After graduating from National American University in South Dakota, she returned to Montana, where she spent nearly a decade working for Farm Services Agency on conservation, disaster, and farm programs prior to obtaining her real estate license in 1999. Kebi began her real estate career by specializing in the sale of ranch and recreational properties across Montana. In 2016, she expanded her scope of services, earning her license in Wyoming to allow her to assist both buyers and sellers regionally as well as statewide.
Read The Land Report article “True Grit” featuring Kebi Smith. “With deep roots in Montana, Kebi Smith was born to be a ranch broker-and a ranch owner, as well.”
Raised in the scenic West Boulder River Valley near Big Timber, Kebi enjoyed a multitude of outdoor recreational activities with her family amid the backdrop of the Beartooth Mountains. To this day, the time spent with family enjoying the Montana outdoors has sparked her desire to share her love for Big Sky Country with real estate clients from across the nation.
Kebi, her husband, Terry, and her son, Justin, currently own and operate a working ranch in eastern Montana, where they have a cow/calf and feedlot operation. In her free time, Kebi enjoys training horses and competing in nearby barrel racing events. She also enjoys spending time outdoors with family and friends hiking, fishing, and downhill skiing at some of Montana’s finest ski resorts.
Combined with her extensive knowledge and years of real estate experience, Kebi’s agricultural background makes her a valuable asset to both buyers and sellers of fine Montana and Wyoming working and recreational ranches.

Testimonials for Kebi Smith
To whom it may concern, Kebi Smith is currently our listing realtor on our property near Fort Smith, MT. Fay Ranches and Kebi's marketing skills have been very professional as well as productive. We were actually under contract with a buyer before the listing was totally up and running. Kebi has communicated and kept us informed on the progress of our sale. I believe her ties to the local area and experience are the driving factors of her success. I would definitely list a property with her again in the future.
When our family decided to sell our ranch in southeastern Montana, we researched various ranch and farm brokerage firms. Narrowing down the field of firm choices, we chose to interview at least three ranch brokers before deciding who we'd want to work with. At the top of our list was a firm's reputation and who had effective marketing platforms and superior marketing materials such as top-quality website presence, brochures, and professional photography. We wanted to work with a firm that possessed a large database of potential clients. Included in our research was to find a good fit with the firm's broker we'd feel comfortable working with and who had years of knowledge in the field, resulting in ranch transaction proficiency. Our experience with Fay Ranches as our choice of a top-notch firm and our broker, Kebi Smith, has proven to be an excellent choice. We've appreciated how Kebi has been responsive and helpful through the sales process. I would highly recommend Kebi and her team.
I have known Kebi for over 20 years, first as a buyer, then as a seller, and then as a trusted friend. Kebi has helped me and my partners successfully buy several million dollars of ranch land, and with her knowledge of how ranches operate, she has the knowledge to work with buyers, sellers, lenders, and all of the government entities. One of the few realtors who do what they say they will do with no complaints! I would trust her to represent me in both buying, selling, or operating a ranch.
