Rita Lovell is a seasoned real estate broker and the founder of Canyon Real Estate, a respected firm serving northwestern Wyoming. With over 33 years of experience, Rita has built a reputation as a trusted guide for buyers and sellers of homes, ranches, and recreational land across Park County and Big Horn Basin. Her passion for Wyoming’s rugged beauty and open spaces runs deep—both personally and professionally.
Rita’s real estate career began during her time working with her husband in their land development company, Canyon Development, where they created 20–40 acre building lots in the Clark, Wyoming area. That work sparked her passion for helping others find their own slice of the West and she pursued her real estate license in 1995 and broker’s license in 1998. In 2004, she turned that passion into a full-time calling by founding Canyon Real Estate. From the beginning, she built the company on a model of exceptional customer service, honest guidance, and deep local knowledge. Today, the firm is recognized as one of the leading real estate agencies in the region, with a team offering over 100 years of combined experience across ranching, land development, banking, and more.
Rita specializes in recreational land, homes, and ranch properties, and is a licensed broker in both Wyoming and Montana. She brings extensive experience in 1031 tax-deferred exchanges, buyer representation, and relocation services. Her clients value not only her expertise, but also her warmth, patience, and genuine interest in their goals. Rita is known for being available seven days a week, ensuring that clients have her full attention whenever they need it.
Outside of real estate, Rita lives the Wyoming lifestyle she loves. She has ridden on horseback 1,000 miles of the historic Chief Joseph Trail and enjoys gardening, exploring the backcountry on her ATV, and photographing the breathtaking landscapes that surround her home. She is also deeply involved in the community, serving as Secretary of the New Mount Carmel Foundation in Meeteetse, Wyoming.
For Rita, real estate isn’t just a career—it’s a way to share the beauty, freedom, and sense of belonging that Wyoming offers. Her philosophy is simple: “Clients become my neighbors and friends.” Whether you’re buying your first home, selling your ranch, or relocating to the area, Rita’s combination of experience, dedication, and heartfelt service ensures a successful—and truly personal—real estate journey.
