Merlin Lipin is a licensed Montana REALTOR® and member of the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), with the Morales Group at Engel & Völkers, serving buyers and sellers throughout Billings, Red Lodge, and surrounding Montana communities. After relocating to Montana himself, Merlin developed a genuine appreciation for the lifestyle, landscape, and people that make the region special — and he now helps others make that same transition with confidence, clarity, and peace of mind. Merlin has personally closed over $6 million in residential real estate in 2025 and is part of a team that produced more than $32 million in sales in that same year. In the past 12 months, he has completed 15 transactions across a wide range of price points and currently ranks in the top 10% of agents locally by MLS production. He was recognized as a Top 10 Agent in Montana by Apple News and is supported by verified 5-star reviews on Google (13), Zillow (6), and Realtor.com (2), with updated transaction histories on major platforms. His specialties include luxury homes, relocation, first-time and move-up buyers, new construction, rural and land properties, investment real estate, and short-term rental homes. Clients often describe Merlin as calm, detail-oriented, and strategic, with amazing communication skills and a reputation as a strong negotiator who deeply cares about his clients’ best interests. He values transparency and takes pride in helping clients feel informed, supported, and comfortable throughout every step of the process. In addition to working with clients, Merlin is also a real estate investor and owner of rental properties, giving him firsthand insight into investment strategy and long-term property ownership. Originally from Belgium and having relocated to Montana himself, Merlin brings a unique perspective to clients navigating a move or lifestyle change. Outside of real estate, Merlin enjoys skiing, hiking, golfing, and spending time in Montana’s mountains — a lifestyle he is always excited to help others discover. He speaks English, French, and Dutch.
