Big Sky Country, MT – Ranches for Sale

March 28, 2025 / Montana/By Michael Brown

“Ranch closings in the first quarter of 2025 have increased by 11% compared to the same period in 2024, with 46 total transactions (Montana Land Source). As spring approaches, more Montana ranches are expected to hit the market, generating excitement among potential buyers. The increase in closings suggests a strong demand for ranch properties, and with warmer weather approaching, we can expect even more activity. Buyers looking for expansive land, recreational opportunities, or working ranches will have fresh options to consider.”
