What Homes a Million Bucks Can Get You in Montana Cities
The housing market in Montana has gone through the roof, and it looks like it won't stop any time soon. More and more people are moving to our state to get out of urban areas as more companies let employees work remotely. When I was growing up in Montana, occasionally, my dad would point to a home and say, "That's a million-dollar home right there." When I would look, I would normally see a huge borderline mansion home on a huge piece of land and I would think, "Yep, a million dollar home." At the time they were a rare sight.
Now, when someone tells me, "That's a million-dollar home right there," I think "No, way, SERIOUSLY?!" So, I went looking across the state to see what "Million Dollar Homes" Montana has to offer today. I set up a few rules for searching. I set my search for a maximum of $1,000,000 and it had to be a house. There are a lot of homes that you can get for well above the million, but I wanted it to be realistic. So, here is what I found from across the state if you had a cool million in your pockets to spend.
