I recently had the opportunity to close a loan with Merlin, and from our very first conversation—after my client mentioned they were working with him—I could immediately tell he was someone I would collaborate well with. Throughout the process, especially while navigating a more complex situation to get my client successfully under contract, Merlin was consistently reliable, responsive, and proactive. Having someone I could easily call or text, knowing he would promptly provide whatever was needed, made a significant difference. His communication and willingness to jump in at any moment helped ensure the entire experience felt smooth and efficient. I truly value working alongside professionals like Merlin and would recommend him to everyone!

Merlin was absolutely incredible to work with from start to finish. Buying a home can be stressful, but he made the entire process feel smooth, organized, and even enjoyable. He was always quick to respond and answered every question we had (no matter how small). He’s knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely kind, which made such a difference throughout the process. We always felt supported and knew we were in good hands. We are so grateful for everything Merlin did for us and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. 5 stars all the way!

Merlin is always responsive to queries, keeps me posted for updates and next steps during the home buying process. He listens to your concerns and gives you best response the best he can with really substantial information. I definitely recommend him!!

Merlin was a great realtor. He kept us informed every step of the way and maintained excellent communication throughout the entire process. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and always offered helpful suggestions and alternatives when needed. He truly went above and beyond to assist us and coordinate services, making the experience much smoother.

Merlin is a great realtor who has a deep understanding of the real estate market in Billings and beyond. He worked very hard for us to find what we were looking for and we ultimately were successful at meeting our goals. I highly reccomend Merlin for anyone who is in need of a competent and hard working agent!

Merlin and I worked together at his headshot session and he was an absolute pleasure to photograph! He was very personable, easygoing, and brought such great energy to the shoot, which made the process smooth and enjoyable. You can immediately tell he has a strong passion for what he does, and that enthusiasm truly shines through. With that drive and positive attitude, I have no doubt he will go far in the real estate world!

Merlin was great, super helpful and responsive, and made my homebuying experience as easy as possible! Highly recommend

We had an excellent experience working with Merlin, who helped my nephew navigate the home-buying process as a first-time buyer. From the very beginning, Merlin took the time to educate him on each step, making what could have been an overwhelming process feel manageable and clear. He was consistently responsive, extremely knowledgeable about the market, and truly listened to what my nephew was looking for. He found and only showed properties that fit his specific parameters, which made the search efficient and focused. His guidance, patience, and professionalism made all the difference, and I would highly recommend Merlin to anyone looking for a realtor they can trust.

Merlin was great to work with. I was nervous about selling my home and he made the whole process easy to understand.

Merlin is super professional and easy to work with. He helped me find exactly what I was looking for in a house, and made sure I felt good about making the final decision to buy my new home. Highly recommend him for your real estate needs.

Thank-you Merlin! We appreciate your dedicated professional manner throughout the home buying process. Your market knowledge and friendly approach was very evident. You were quite prepared for all our questions. We especially wanted to say thank-you for coordinating the resolution of the plumbing problem that occurred after the closing. We highly recommend you as an agent in the Billings area.

Merlin did an outstanding job in helping us through the entire home buying process. He was always punctual, responsive to our questions and offered excellent advice. When we found a home we wanted, he located an excellent inspector (Michael Quick) who prepared a thorough and detailed inspection report. Then Merlin proved to be an excellent negotiator and helped us secure repairs as well as an allowance from the seller. I can't say enough about Merlin's professionalism and knowledge throughout the entire home buying experience. He is truly the best real estate agent we have ever worked with.

Merlin went above and beyond to help us. Short notice that I would be in the area but he set up ten plus showings in one day. Even took time to respond to us while he was out of the area on vacation with his family. Would utilize his services again.

As a lender, I work with agents across many markets, and Merlin truly stands out. He recently helped my out-of-area buyers navigate a highly competitive market and find the perfect home. His local expertise, responsiveness, and professionalism made the entire process smooth and successful. I was especially impressed with how well he communicated and advocated for our mutual clients every step of the way. I would absolutely recommend Merlin to anyone looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable agent! Sheri Pexa, Guild Mortgage, PexaTeam.com

Merlin did an excellent job finding our family the perfect house. He could have written us off as the difficult clients, but instead he took all of our requests and requirements into consideration. He showed us numerous houses in a difficult market and after 3 failed offers, we found a house in the area we wanted. Merlin was there the whole way, and responded quickly to texts and emails. We will recommend him to anyone looking for their dream house!

My experience was really great! He was on top of things when I had question's and found the answers needed. He had also been working and answering questions after I have closed. Very good to work with and made buying easy for me! Greatly recommend him to everyone.

I've been in the mortgage industry for over 6 years, and it's always refreshing to find a real estate partner like Merlin. We've closed several deals together, and I can confidently say he goes above and beyond for his clients. Merlin treats every buyer like family, giving them honest advice and guidance as if he were helping his own loved ones. He truly looks out for their best interest every step of the way. Beyond that, he brings a fun and informative energy to real estate with the great videos he shares on social media—definitely worth checking out! If you're looking to buy or sell, hit up Merlin. You'll be in great hands.

Merlin is motivated, responsive and always does best by his customers.

Merlin was very helpful, he checked in daily and also arranged for an inspector to view the house and took me along with him. He called daily to make check in and see if I needed anything. Merlin called earlier this week and asked if the sink was fix and did I need him to get us a plumber. I was very lucky to have a realtor like him to help through the process, he is very knowledgeable and always had a answer.

Merlin is outstanding at his job, he keeps buyers up to date on how the process is going. His communications skills are awesome. I have worked with many realtors but none as good as him. He followed up on how I was doing asking if I need help, he made arrangements for me to watch the house inspection. Merlin helped me with getting an insurance for the new house, appraisal, and called out all that he saw in the house that needed fixing. I really appreciate people that go the extra mile to make sure they address everything.

I had the pleasure of working with Merlin recently, he was the buyer's agent for one of my mortgage clients. Merlin did a great job making sure his clients were well represented & taken care of. He was very open to learning new information & asking questions. When we had a last minute surprise, he jumped in with both feet to help ensure we kept our closing on time, which we greatly appreciated! We look forward to working with him again!

A massive thank you to Merlin Lipin for all the time spent to get us to this big day as homeowners! So much effort went on behind the scenes. We felt very well taken care of on this journey of touring endless homes, making an offer, negotiating, and all the piles of paperwork. To anyone looking to invest in real-estate, I can't recommend Merlin Lipin enough. Merlin is someone that takes time to call and communicate, answer questions and seek answers to questions he doesn't already know, provide contacts and resources, is available nearly all times of day nearly all days of the week (amazing). I felt educated through the process and like Merlin was truly rooting for us to find our home!
