What To Do if You Sell a Home in Bozeman
On Mar 16, 2021
Are you thinking of selling your home in Bozeman? It's a seller's market in Bozeman that's for sure. But with rising home prices and an incredibly competitive real estate market, deciding what to do next can be difficult. Here are some tips on what to do if you want to sell your home in Bozeman:
1) Upgrade
One of the main reasons people sell their current home is to upgrade. A growing family or working from home are a couple of the reasons an upgrade is necessary. While selling your home in Bozeman can be easy, moving up can be more difficult. Click here for some tips.
2) Downsize
There are a number of reasons to consider downsizing. Retirement, too much maintenance, or big life changes can make a smaller home or condo more desirable. There has never been a better time to sell your home with prices at an all-time high. If you are downsizing, this seller's market can work in your favor.
3) Consider the Surrounding Areas
Bozeman is getting expensive! If you sold your home hoping to upgrade, Bozeman may not be an option. Luckily, there are great surrounding communities. Livingston is 20 miles east of Bozeman in the beautiful Paradise Valley. They have a thriving downtown and prices are more affordable than Bozeman. West of Bozeman is Belgrade, Manhattan, and Three Forks. These are quickly becoming popular options for those looking outside of Bozeman.

4) Move to A Smaller Montana Town
The population in Bozeman is increasing by more than 3.6% per year, which is four times the growth rate of the state of Montana! If you're looking to escape the Bozeman boom altogether, there are lots of small Montana towns that still have the charm we are losing here. Click here for a list of 10 small Montana towns we love.
5) Leave Montana
Every day we hear about more and more people moving to Montana. However, there are some who decide to look elsewhere. Whether it's because it's getting too expensive or the winters are too much, people leave Montana every day. If you have sold your Bozeman home, chances are you got a good return on your investment. There are places where you can get more bang for your buck, so looking outside of Montana may be your best option.
