Sometimes before buyers ask how many bedroom and baths a home has, now one of the first questions is “How is the internet service here?” We wouldn’t be honest if we didn’t say that internet service can be challenging in NW Montana’s Flathead and Lake Counties. This question definitely has merit! More and more buyers are coming into the area that need good quality broadband not only for their favorite movies and shows but for their day to day work operations. In this rural area there are a few choices and over time they are getting better. Here are the vendors to check:
