Diane, Rapid City, a buyer from Rapid City, SD
Buying a home when you live 8 hours away is a HUGE challenge but Seth provided FaceTime walk-throughs and property videos. He traveled hundreds of miles in the search for my perfect home. He was there for me when I felt defeated and celebrated the victories with me. He is a man of integrity and so trustworthy. I relied on his input heavily and so glad I did. He is just simply amazing and I am so glad my son recommended him. Thank you Seth!!

Matt Hanley, Rapid City, SD, a seller from Rapid City, SD
Working with Seth was an absolute pleasure! His professionalism, expertise, and dedication made the process of buying and selling a home smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Seth to anyone looking for a top-notch real estate agent! Seth is just a flat out good dude.

Joshua Told, Salt Lake City Utah, a seller from Rapid City, SD
Seth is always a kind and reasonable person and easy to work with. He's knowledgeable, understanding, and patient. He was easy to talk to and relate to. Seth is personable and everyone enjoys working with him, talking to him and sharing with him. He is our friend because he took the time to get to know us and make sure everything fit well for our family. He has a passion for helping people and it shows in his professional services. We will always recommend Seth to anyone and everyone. We feel lucky to have met him and used him as our realtor and we are thankful he became one of our dear friends. Seth is a great guy! Can't say enough good things about him!

Seth was great, easy to work with, and delivered great results

Roger Nimps, Dublin, Ohio, a seller from Rapid City, SD
Seth Malott is an excellent realtor who excelled at meeting our needs in the sale of our home. Whether we were in town or out of state he kept the communication flow going and we always knew the status of our sale. The marketing materials he made for our sale were top-notch. Staff in his office were always professional and responsive to our queries as well. While preparing for our sale we needed to do some work on the house, and Seth was able to direct us to companies that completed our projects in a timely manner. His knowledge of the community is impeccable.


Angie Mason, Rapid City SD, a buyer from Rapid City, SD
Seth Malott was a great realtor would recommend him to anyone!

Jake, Rapid City, a buyer from Box Elder, SD
This is the 3rd home I have purchased with Seth. He is always available and knows this area well. He gets to know his clients and considers them friends by the time closing comes around. He works hard and has always fought for me in negotiation, whether it's purchasing or selling a home. Seth is the only realtor I recommend to people, and I will definitely be using him again.

Vichara Santos Silva, Rapid City, a seller from Rapid City, SD
Seth was attentive, knowledgeable, and he not only understood us as sellers, but understood who our family is and what we value. We felt like he genuinely cared about us and had our best interest in every part of the process! We definitely made the right choice!

Seth knew exactly what we needed to do to get the house sold. The photos and 3D tour came out amazing, and drew lots of people in to look (even from out of state virtually)!

We have worked with many realtors in the past and Seth is hands down, THE BEST! We knew that he was looking out for us with every decision we had to make. We never had anyone advocate for us the way that he did. He was patient and spent a lot of time with us... on the phone, at the property, texting, picking up keys, and etc.

Seth made sure we got what the amount we had wanted to make out of the deal and we really do appreciate that!

You cannot get a better realtor in the Black Hills than Seth!!

Holli Mitchell Rapid City, South Dakota , a buyer from Rapid City, SD
Seth was an amazing agent. He went above and beyond for our family. He offered support when asked and supported our decisions as we made them. He really made us feel like part of the Rapid City community.

Steven Drewiske , a seller from Black Hawk, SD
Professional Realtor! Very easy to talk to. Would highly recommend using Seth in the future and recommend others to utilize his services!!

Rhoda Smith, Rapid City SD, a seller from Rapid City, SD
Seth is a true professional who knows the real estate market. He is also a really great person to work with and makes buying and selling a home go incredibly smoothly. He's a 5-star agent!!

Dave, Rapid City, a seller from Rapid City, SD
Overall we were happy with Seth for both the buying and the selling of our home. Everything was done professionally, quickly, and effectively. There was only one area where we did not see eye to eye at first - that was dealing with the listing price of the home. However, Seth was fully supportive of where we wanted to start the house at and did significant leg work and extra research to find closer comps to that starting price, and we came to a starting point that was pretty close to what we actually sold the house for in the end.

I can't stress Seth's timeliness, helfpfulness, professionalism, responsiveness, and effectiveness enough. If we weren't leaving the Rapid City area I'd definitely want to work with him again.

Eric Goral, Rapid City, SD, a seller from Rapid City, SD
I was referred to Seth using the USAA matching tool to buy my house 4 years ago. He worked so hard and is so personable that I made sure to let him sell my house as well.

Seth is just a good person, through and through. He is who you want fighting for you, whether youre buying or selling. You know anything and everything he does is for you, not for him or his business. I always felt like I was the top priority, and didnt even consider he had other properties he was working just as hard for, because he is that invested in you and your family. I truly felt his greatest enjoyment came from seeing his buyers/sellers happy, not from making commission.

It was a rough sale for sure. What could have been over in just a couple weeks took a few months, but Seth was there throughout the entire process and always kept me sane and optimistic. Despite my initial, and probably constant, freakouts he pushed forward and got me more money that I ever expected... I honestly believe I could not have done it without him.

We got an offer on our first viewing and it was $15k below asking, but during counter-offer after counter-offer we got a second offer from our 4th viewing that was exactly what we expected to get before listing. We accepted this offer, went through all of the contingency removal process (which included completely replacing the roof, ripping up the front yard to fix a small hole in the main sewer line, as well as several other things)...then literally 2-3 days before closing, the buyers backed out. What was originally $2000 in escrow turned into $3000 when Seth fought hard for us to get an extra thousand. We were devastated as we had already moved out and were paying rent elsewhere, expecting the sale to go through. Seth stayed optimistic and immediately got the house back on the market the same day. He had an open house a few days later on the weekend and said it was the busiest he had ever seen.

I firmly believe he was working harder than we even know. He must have been calling all of his contacts and ensuring the house was packed, but just didnt feel the need to boast about it to us. He is just a hard worker, plain and simple. His performance speaks for itself.

Well we ended up getting a 3rd offer, which we accepted after some interesting back-and-forth with the buyer (they retracted the offer then we convinced them to resubmit it with a contingency). Then that buyer backed out less than a week later. Despite being before contingency, Seth got us $250 in escrow even though the buyer had zero responsibility to do so. At this point our house showed as being on market for almost 2 months despite being "under contract" for all but about 7 days of it. So he smartly took it off the market and re-listed it. Literally within a day or two we had the highest offer we had yet. We of course accepted and closed just a month later.

I dont know everything that Seth was doing behind the scenes but I am sure its more than you can ever imagine. And if he suggests you do something, you should strongly consider it. He is nothing like the nightmare realtors you hear/read about. Everything he says and does is for you. You will not only find a great realtor, but a really good friend, in Seth and his office.



Chris Parrish, Rapid City, a buyer from Rapid City, SD

Chris Parrish, Rapid City, a seller from Rapid City, SD
Seth was professional and knowledgable in his dealings with our property, other realtors and prospective buyers. He was so great to work with and went out of his way to help us have the best experience possible. Thanks Seth!

Gabe VanD Rapid CIty, SD, a seller from Rapid City, SD
My wife and I have used Seth for three separate real estate transactions and have been super happy with all three. His expertise and knowledge of the industry is second to none! Seth sold our house in 48 hours and we were able to close in less than a month! This would have not happened with another realtor! If you'd like to sell your house, you need the best! Seth is the best!

Vic and Deva Stewart, Rapid City, SD, a buyer from Rapid City, SD
We were repeat customers on other properties and were impressed with his professionalism and desire to meet our needs and he always went the extra mile. We came from out of state and had to do our house shopping via the website and Seth was so helpful on providing extra insight on each property. When my husband flew in to look at properties, Seth took two days with him looking at properties and was able to close an offer on our home the day my husband had to fly out. We are so pleased with Seth and our new home.

Bailee Goodwin, a seller from Box Elder, SD
We chose to work with Seth due to his knowledge and commitment to get the home sold. He is personable and understood our situation clearly. He is the best agent we have ever worked with and did an outstanding job on helping us get our home sold! I highly recommend working with Seth for any buying/selling purposes! Thank you for all of your help!

Cassie & Robby Vergil, a seller from Rapid City, SD
Seth was great! He was knowledgeable and offered great non-biased advice, but always made sure that whatever I chose was my decision and to take my time. He was a lot of fun to work with as well and prompt to get back to me regarding the sell/purchase our our homes, he also was a great advocate for us during this process. My family and I could not be happier with the turnout, we would definitely recommend Seth Malott to anyone and will for sure use him again if the opportunity presents itself!

Sarah, Rapid City, a buyer from Rapid City, SD
Seth led us through an extremely complicated transaction with patience, wisdom and grace. He was constantly there to answer all of our questions and concerns and aided us in every aspect of purchasing our home. I have been thouroughly grateful that we got Seth as our realtor.

Gabe Rapid City, SD, a buyer from Rapid City, SD

Chris- Rapid City, SD, a buyer from Rapid City, SD
We cannot thank Seth enough for his constant attention to detail and concern for helping our family find the right house. We were 75% finished with closing on a house and something fell through on the sellers end. We were devastated for the moment but the next day found an even better house and were so pleased with Seth helping us through the difficult process. We are now settled in at home and feel so blessed that we didnt have to go through this process alone. I would recommend Seth Malott over and over again and look forward to working with him in the future!
2018
Adam Carr, Rapid City, a buyer from Rapid City, SD
As first time home buyers we were new to the experience and weren't quite sure where to start. Seth made the process so easy and stress-free. He answered every question we had and was personable and easy to work with. He took the time to get to know us and was always up front and honest with us. Seth always made himself available to answer any questions we had throughout the process. Our first home buying experience was a great one. We would highly recommend Century 21 and Seth to anyone in the market for a new home!
2018
Heidi Jenkins Rapid City SD, a seller from Rapid City, SD
Seth is fantastic, and I will be using him for my next house. I see a lot of houses, and often I see them last minute. Seth was always available for me to contact him about new houses I'd like to see, and he made the process of putting in an offer absolutely painless! I have, and will continue to recommend Seth Malott for anyone who is looking for a house!

Roger Nimps, Rapd City (formerly Lima,, a buyer from Rapid City, SD
We were hiring a realtor at a distance. Seth Malott's online reviews were positive, as were those of several other Rapid City realtors. Seth was the only one who responded to our e-mailed inquiries. We were fortunate he did so. He was efficient, able to answer all our questions, and timely in all our communications (by text, e-mail, or phone). As he led us through the process of purchasing a new home, everything ran smoothly, even when we had to tour houses virtually while we were stuck in Ohio. Very quickly, we grew to trust Seth's analysis and recommendations. We would certainly work with Seth again.
2017
Cori, Rapid City, a buyer from Box Elder, SD
I'm a anxious person and this was our first home. He was super calm throughout the process and kept me comfortable throughout the whole process.

2017
Brandi Simpson, Summerset, a seller from Black Hawk, SD
We can not begin to express how great our experiences with Seth have been. We bought our house with him almost 4 years ago and didn't hesitate going back to him to sell our house. He is super friendly and knows the market well. We would recommend him to any of our family and friends!
2017
Madisen Roberts, Rapid City , a buyer from Black Hawk, SD
Seth was knowledgeable and helped me find the perfect house quickly. We didn't look at many of them which meant he listened to my requests and wants, and found houses matching those requests. Overall, I had such a great experience with little to no bumps. I will refer Seth to other friends if mine!
2017
Rapid City, SD, a seller from Rapid City, SD
Seth Malott worked as hard as he could for us and it showed. Our house was under contract in three days and the whole process was as smooth as it could be. Seth had great communication and was extremely clear on every aspect of the selling process. I would recommend Seth because he is friendly and fun to work with. We had no stress on our end. Thanks for everything!
2017
Lisa Ross, South Dakota, a seller from Rapid City, SD
Seth demonstrated honest and direct feedback with options that supported not only the price value of the home but how the home would be advertised for optimum view. This home was sold right at the start of winter. We are pleased with Seth's persistency in using all his resources and support to have a great buyer we know will take care of the home.
2017
Karla Stewart- LaCrosse Wi, a seller from Rapid City, SD
Seth Malott was patient, had to talk me down from the ledge a few times. It was my fathers home and I live 10 hours away so he was helpful in getting things done for me. The only trouble came by way of Wells Fargo, the buyers lender. We had to be patient.
2016
Scott Ashley- Rapid City SD, a seller from Rapid City, SD
I was impressed with the way Seth Malott guided a family member with the sale and purchase of his homes. Therefore I selected Seth to sell my house and was equally impressed with the professionalism and knowledge he showed.

Seth kept me informed throughout the process, and by the time the sale was complete, we had become friends.
2016
Emily, Rapid City SD, a seller from Rapid City, SD
After going through the buying process with the Malott team, it was an easy decision to have them sell our house as well. Seth and Courtney were pleasant to work with, and they were organized with property research to help explain the value of our home. They helped us with preparing the home by giving us advice on what buyers look for, and they took excellent photographs for marketing. Their marketing was direct and worked immediately! We were able to sell the house within a short weekend. It was awesome! I would highly recommend the Malott team to anyone looking to buy or sell!

Emily & Aaron - Rapid City, SD, a buyer from Rapid City, SD
Seth caught our attention with his passion to find a home suited for our style and way of living. He was honest with his opinions and kept an open mind to help us make decisions.

Seth and Courtney made the buying process fun and easy. We had such a fun time getting to know them and we are happy to recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell!
2016
Shannon K, Rapid City, a buyer from Rapid City, SD
Coming from out of town with no prior knowledge of Rapid City, we needed someone to go above and beyond the call in regards to our purchase. Seth made it easy and seamless from the beginning. His communication was spot on and exactly what we needed being so far away. Seth had great local knowledge and put up with our endless questions. He arranged everything prior to us arriving to view homes and spent his Saturday with us. Then spent that Sunday with us writing an offer. We couldn't have asked for someone as knowlegable and caring. We are looking forward to working with Seth in the future should we ever have to leave our new purchase (which we LOVE)! Seth got us and our needs and I couldn't have asked for more!
2016
Clay Schweitzer, Rapid City, a buyer from Rapid City, SD

VerBeeks, AZ, a seller from Hermosa, SD

Spencer Gossel- Rapid City , a buyer from Rapid City, SD
I could not have asked for a more attentive and knowledgeable realtor! He was so patient and always available for even the smallest concern or question. He held my hand through the entire process and has followed up several times just to check in even after the move.

The only thing Seth could do to improve... Would be if there were two of him.


2015
Jason, Rapid City, SD, a buyer from Rapid City, SD
When determining a realtor, it's important to partner with someone you trust and get along with. Seth not only has a keen sense of the market in the Black Hills, he also has a quick sense of humor. In the midst of selling and purchasing a home, that is important.
