Clearwater Properties Celebrates Grand Re-Opening of White Sulphur Springs Office
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, Mont., July 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clearwater Properties proudly celebrated the grand re-opening of its White Sulphur Springs office on Friday, June 27, 2025. The event, held from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., welcomed community members, clients, and guests for an evening of connection and celebration. Attendees enjoyed appetizers, refreshments, giveaways, and the opportunity to meet the newest member of the Clearwater team, Agent Cale Updegrave. Cale brings a passion for Montana living and a strong commitment to serving the local community. Company leadership was also on hand to share Clearwater's ongoing dedication to White Sulphur Springs and its mission to help clients stake their claim in Montana. The newly refreshed office reflects the brokerage's continued growth and investment in providing high-quality, personalized real estate service across the region. 'We're honored to be part of this community and excited about what lies ahead,' said Clearwater CEO, Shaun Michael Lewis. 'This beautiful valley isn't simply another market for us - It's where our founder, Kevin Wetherell, was born and raised, and where the seeds of what would become the largest Montana-born brokerage first took root. Clearwater is a brokerage born not in London, New York, California or Germany. It was born here, in Montana and that legacy drives the way in which we serve our communities. This office holds a unique place in our company's story. Aside from the founder's upbringing in White Sulphur, this was our second location which we established back in 1995, and it served this community faithfully for 28 years before we had to make the difficult decision to temporarily close in 2023. But White Sulphur Springs never left our hearts, just as it never leaves the hearts of those in the community.' Lewis continued 'Over the past three decades, Clearwater has grown from a local Montana dream into a company with over 35 office and agent locations across five states in the mountain west. We've been recognized as one of America's Best Brokerages by The Land Report, and we're proud to be the #1 Sports Afield Trophy Properties brokerage in the world. But through all that growth, we've never forgotten our roots - the Montana values of integrity, hard work, and treating neighbors like family. Those values were shaped right here in White Sulphur Springs, in this community that, perhaps more than any other, understands the true meaning of Montana life. As we reopen these doors, we are renewing our commitment to this community. To date, we've given back over $1.3million to non-profits across Montana and look forward to continuing that tradition in White Sulphur Springs.' Clearwater Montana Properties, founded in 1993, is Montana's largest real estate brokerage firm with a network of over 30 offices and agent locations across Montana, Idaho, North Dakota, Washington, and Wyoming. Clearwater focuses on providing quality customer service, superior market knowledge, and giving back to the communities we serve.
