A second home in Montana can now cost you two and a half times what your neighbor pays in property tax.

For the exact same house.

And it's already showing up on bills across the Gallatin Valley.

From Bozeman to Belgrade to Big Sky. 

I get into why in the full video.

What the deadline actually is.

And how to check your own place in about two minutes, whether it's your primary home in town or a cabin in the mountains. 

If you own here or you're looking at buying in this area, this is worth knowing before your next bill shows up. 

Comment TAX and I'll send you the full video.

The Bozeman home buying process moves fast once your offer gets accepted.

But when you don't know what comes next, every phone call can start to feel like bad news.

Every new items adds stress on your shoulders.

Here's what I walk every buyer through before we ever look at a house. 

What the inspection covers. 

Getting your home insurance set up.

How the appraisal works. 

When the financing deadlines hit.

That way none of it catches you off guard once you're under contract.

When you don't know what coming, that's when you start to panic.

So we get that out of the way up front.

If you're buying in Bozeman or anywhere in the Gallatin Valley, this is exactly what I walk my clients through.

Step by step.

So you have a plan from day one.

Growing wealth through real estate here in Bozeman almost never comes down to money.

It's usually sitting in a house, some savings, maybe another property, 

So it's usually separate, and not treated like one plan. 

I see the same pattern across the Gallatin Valley. 

People wait for a slower week to start, and that week never actually shows up. 

Underneath both of those, a lot of them haven't decided if they're chasing more wealth or just relief from a house that's turned into another job. 

It's worth figuring out what you're actually looking for. That determines your next steps.

Gran Cielo is the Bozeman neighborhood I send almost every busy professional to.

It offers amazing proximity on the Southside of town.  

You're close to downtown, Montana State Univerisity, and the hospital.

The build quality is some of the best value I see for the price.

So the day you move in, the house is finished.

No projects waiting on your weekends. No stress on your shoulders.

Here's what most people don't know. 

The builder pays attention to what owners upgrade after they close. 

A lot of those upgrades become standard in the next homes. 

So the baseline keeps going up.

📩 DM me "Gran Cielo" and I'll send you what I tell my clients about living there, and the homes for sale right now.

The Bozeman Market Minute: September 2026

Bozeman median home price for August 2026: $786,625.

Forty percent fewer houses sold inside the city than a year ago. 

But prices didn't drop.

Here is why.

The homes that did sell went under contract in 17 days. Last year it took 31. 

And pending sales rose 15%. Fewer homes are trading hands out here, and the ones that do move fast.

Ten minutes up the road, Belgrade came in at a median of $613,900. 

That's up 11.5%. Price per square foot went up too, so this is real growth and not a few big sales.

For a Belgrade owner, that is about $64,000 in equity in one year.

Selling this fall?

You get about two weeks of real attention when you list. 

Sellers are getting 98 to 99% of asking. 

But you still need to price where the last sales actually closed. Pricing high and waiting is not a strategy.

Buying this fall?

You have more room than you think. 

It would take about five months to sell everything listed right now. 

But pending sales are up 15%, so competition is building as we get into the Fall

Comment the word VIDEO and I will send you the full September breakdown on YouTube.

This article made me happy. 

Zillow says buyers now pay more for a home that's already done.

AND homes that need work sell for less. 

It's true here too, and it actually hurts MORE in Bozeman.

Because your home competes with new builds all over the Gallatin Valley.

Even a house just fifteen years old can feel dated. 

Buyers are already paying a premium to live in our market.

I can tell you, they don't want a project at these prices.

You can fix that without a big remodel.

It starts with a plan built before you list. 

If you're selling a home in Bozeman, drop SELL and I'll send you my seller's guide.

Two weeks before closing, the seller passed away.

Suddenly no one knew if my clients still had a contract.

I didn't have that answer, and I told them so.

Then I called until I found the people who did.

That's most of this job on a hard deal.

You work out who actually can give you an answer, and you get to them fast.

I'll sound confident most of the time. I've done this a lot.

When I come up against something I've never seen...

You'll hear me say it.

And this works on your end too.

Ask every question you have.

If a question feels dumb, ask it anyway.

I've never thought less of anybody for asking.

The agent you want will tell you when you need to ask questions.

When you should dig deeper.

And WON'T make you feel like less because you're asking.
