Why Fall May Be the Best Time to Buy a Home in Bozeman

Everyone talks about spring as real estate season.

2916 Warbler Way, Bozeman, MT: Multi-Unit Development Opportunity in Cattail Creek

Finding developable land inside an established Bozeman neighborhood is becoming increasingly difficult. Finding a site where much of the surrounding community, infrastructure, parks, trails, and amenities are already established is even more compelling.

But when you hear that something new is “coming to Bozeman,” you need to make an important distinction.

Bears in Bozeman: How to Prepare Your Home for Wildlife

If it feels like everyone in Bozeman suddenly has a bear story, you're not imagining it.

Bear sightings have been picking up around Bozeman and other Montana communities as we head into fall. This is an especially active time for bears because they're preparing for hibernation and entering a phase known as hyperphagia, when finding calories becomes a major priority. Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks says bears may spend much of their day searching for food during this period, bringing them closer to neighborhoods and homes.

And lately, bears have been making the news well beyond Bozeman. Across parts of the West, unusually poor natural food conditions have contributed to increased encounters…
