Born and raised in the once sleepy ski town of Whitefish, Montana, Vinny was immersed in Montana’s great outdoors from an early age, helping him develop a great appreciation for wildlife and the land that supports it. From fly fishing for rainbows near Glacier Park to stalking white-tailed deer in the Sweet Grass Hills to chasing pheasants in the flatlands of Eastern Montana, he has roamed around Montana since he was seven years old.
Vinny has called Bozeman, Montana, home since 2000. Shortly after graduating from Montana State University with a degree in Business Management, Vinny built an existing hunting and fishing business into one of the premier outfitters in the state. While building Montana Hunt and Fish Company, Vinny worked on some of the highest-profile ranches in Southwest Montana, expanding his knowledge of ranches and learning to identify what makes a property exceptional. From habitat and wildlife management to farming and ranching, Vinny gained invaluable on-the-ground experience during the decade of owning his company.
In 2012, Vinny joined Fay Ranches and applied his knowledge and business acumen to the ranch brokerage world with immediate success. Conservation and conservation-minded landowners are what attracted Vinny to the Fay Ranches brand, and he works hard to contribute to preserving the West and assisting in making a landscape become as productive as possible. Since his start with Fay Ranches, Vinny has represented buyers and sellers while they navigate an array of transactions ranging from a few hundred thousand dollars to large-scale, complicated, and highly prolific eight-figure deals. He takes great pride and enjoyment in working with buyers, sellers, attorneys, accountants, and ranch managers through transactions and post-closings. When Vinny isn’t working on enhancement projects on his own ranch or looking at a property with clients, he can be found in the field with his pointing dog whenever time allows. In addition to upland bird hunting, he enjoys waterfowl hunting, fly fishing, and skiing.
Vinny is a member of the Realtors Land Institute, adding value to his clients with knowledge and resources that a land specialist can provide.
Vinny has been involved in over $400,000,000 in sales since he joined Fay Ranches.
