Raised between Alabama and the Cayman Islands, Bill joined Hall and Hall as a ranch partner in the fall of 1996. He came to Montana to work as a fly-fishing guide and ranch hand during a summer break from law school. Bill returned to Montana after graduation and became the Tribal Prosecutor for the Crow Tribe. In addition to his law degree, Bill holds an undergraduate degree in music from the University of Miami and remains passionate about his music. He is also a skilled photographer specializing in underwater imagery with images having been published by National Geographic, the BBC and elsewhere. He is an FAA licensed UAS (drone) Pilot which he uses for real estate photography and cinematography. He is also a hospice volunteer and dedicated practitioner of hot yoga. It was inevitable that he found his way into a real estate career as the profession stretches back four generations in his family. His love of the northern Rocky Mountain region compelled him to move to Missoula where he handles transactions in the “backyard” as well as those stretching from Florida to California. Bill is currently licensed as a real estate broker in Montana (RRE-BRO-LIC-8609), Idaho (#AB00021997), Florida (#BK3229636), Georgia (#347418), Tennessee (#317360), and California (#01455038).
Pope Ranch has a diverse mix of habitats situated against a steep wall of mountains that provide an intense view of jagged granite with snow most of the year. Ashley Creek flows out of the mountains and onto this 910± acre ranch through a lush, fern-filled forest before opening up to the green hay meadows below. The ranch currently runs about 175 pairs and produces 660 tons of hay on average annually. All irrigation is on gravity flow which makes for a more cost-effective operation. The upper one-third of the property is timbered hills while the lower two-thirds is almost entirely irrigated with a combination of one pivot, wheel lines, hand lines and flood. The recreational resources on the ranch and in the surrounding area offer everything you’d expect from the northern Rockies.
His (Bill's) expertise in the market and marketing of the property was excellent.
