Similar to last month, land sales and properties under contract decreased and available inventory increased significantly. The residential land market in Kalispell is moving towards a more balanced market where neither buyers nor sellers have the upper hand.  INVENTORYAs of early August, there were 162 residential land parcels for sale in Kalispell which is 72% more than July's inventory of 94. It is a significant increase and is the fourth month in a row of more inventory. Of note, much of the increase was related to two new developments.

A beautiful 26 acre parcel of Lower Valley Road land in the valley of Kalispell Montana just sold!  This property currently has a legal address of NHN (No House Number) MT Highway 82, but it's actually located about a quarter mile north on Lower Valley Road. With 800 feet of paved county road frontage, it's a very easy-to-access parcel in the middle of the valley between Bigfork and Kalispell. The property should have an official address soon as the new owners start their work on making the property theirs! Less than an hour after this property hit the market, calls started coming, and within a few days a buyer had connected with the property. Unfortunately that buyer decided to move on when his investigation determined he could not divide the land into as many parcels as he had hoped. ...

Ashley Lake is a 4 mile long by 2 mile wide lake which is located in northwest Kalispell. The lake reaches 200 feet in depth and provides a great spot for fishing, specifically for kokanee, cutthroat and yellow perch. There are three campgrounds around the lake with a total of 12 campsites. And of course, all lake-appropriate activities can be found at Ashley Lake such as swimming, boating and more. With all this activity available, you may have thought there could be no more vacant land available in the Ashley Lake area. You'd be wrong!Twenty-seven (count them, 27!) acres of land on the south side of Ashley Lake just came on the market! The listing reads:Have you been dreaming of secluded acreage with amazing views of Ashley Lake and the nearby mountains and hillsides? A place where yo...

Following is an overview of the Kalispell Montana real estate results for the residential market as of April 2022. This report covers the entire residential market, including single family homes, townhouses, condominiums and manufactured homes.  The Kalispell residential market remains a strong sellers market, but there are a few signs that changes might be coming.  Sales VolumeIn the month of April 2022, there were 100 residential sales in Kalispell which is 33% more than last year and 83% more than last month. That is quite a jump from the previous month. Because there are currently 162 homes under contract, which is 7% less than the same time last month, next month's results should be relatively flat or perhaps even decrease a bit.  InventoryIn terms of available homes on the market,...

A common question buyers of land may have is, "Can I subdivide my Kalispell land?" There are various reasons for this question. Buyers may wish to split the land among family members, giving each a deeded piece of property. Or they might want to gain income from the sale of a few pieces, and live on the remaining parcel. Or perhaps they want to purchase land as an investment and subdivide for a development. Whichever of these is true, the answer to the question "Can I subdivide my Kalispell land?" is "It depends." The two major types of land divisions in our area are: family transfers and subdivisions.Family transfers allow a land to be divided and exempted from subdivision review. Specifically, this kind of transfer means the land is being sold or gifted to a member of the landowner's ...

Wildlife is prevalent in the Kalispell, Montana area. I recently wrote about the thrill of watching a healthy herd of elk as well as the always-present deer and turkeys. There are other animals that can also be found in our Kalispell woods.  Although the most common animal sightings in our area are turkeys, deer and elk, there are many other animals we've either seen or seen sign of. Coyote: We only saw one coyote, and he was moving too fast to even get a photo. One day a few years ago, we were taking one of our walks down the driveway and we heard something coming our way. As we watched, a coyote bounded across the ground, racing towards our neighbor's ranch. A few seconds later we heard frantic squawking of turkeys. You can just imagine what happened.Mountain Lion: We haven't actually...
