I have broken down the numbers over a 5 year period.  I calculated anything over $800,000 in Bozeman City Limits. I went the extra step and broke the numbers down by quarter so you can decide when you should buy or sell your luxury home in Bozeman city limits.

• Quarter 2 and Quarter 3 have the most home sales
