Measuring Montana’s Outdoor Economy

New report says outdoor recreation pumps $7.1 billion into state economy and supports 71,000 jobs

BY JUSTIN FRANZ // AUG 29, 2017 // FLATHEAD BEACON Photo by Greg Lindstrom

COLUMBIA FALLS — For more than a century, the mountains that surround the Flathead Valley have inspired legions, from artists trying to capture the beauty on canvas to teenagers sharing the scenery through the perfect Instagram filter. But a new report suggests Montana’s scenic wonders are worth a lot more than a pretty picture.

“Montana’s public lands aren’t just for creating memories or snapping pictures for Facebook,” Sen. Jon Tester declared last week at an outdoors round table at the Cedar Creek Lodge, which was followed by a rally for public lands. “These lands bring $7.1 billion to the state’s economy every year, support 71,000 jobs and bring numerous new businesses and entrepreneurs here.”

Tester was referencing data published in a report by Headwaters Economics for the nonprofit Business for Montana’s Outdoors. The report noted that some of Montana’s fastest-growing counties are also close to federally managed public lands. Between 2000 and 2015, five counties — Gallatin, Yellowstone, Missoula, Flathead and Lewis and Clark — were responsible for 75 percent of the state’s job growth.

Kelley’s Market Trends: Western Montana Home Prices

Over the last 12 years, Flathead County’s median home price has been on average the highest of six western Montana counties.

BY JIM KELLEY // SEP 6, 2017 // FLATHEAD BEACON

At the peak of the market in 2007, Flathead County had the highest median home price of any of the surrounding counties. Flathead’s median was 13 percent higher than Missoula County, 4 percent higher than Lake County, 13 percent higher than Ravalli County, 35 percent higher than Lincoln County and 45 percent higher than Sanders County.

Of these six counties, Flathead County had a 7.8 percent increase in the median home price in 2017, which is higher than any of the surrounding counties. Lake County has had a 5.9 percent decline, Lincoln County has had a 12.3 percent decline, Sanders County had a 2.1 percent increase, Ravalli County has had a 6.6 percent increase, and Missoula County has had a 5.2 percent increase.

Real Estate Market Update

By Greg Carter, Broker, RE/MAX Rocky Mountain Real Estate

Graph by Jim Kelley, Kelley Appraisal

We are half way through 2017 and the Northwest Montana real estate market is as healthy as ever. There have been 822 sales in our area through June which is an 11.1% increase over the same period last year. Average prices have held strong with a slight increase of just under 3%. Real estate sales volume bottomed in 2009 but has consistently increased every one of the past eight years. The powerpestcontrol knows that any unwanted insect or animal is a pest. That’s why we do not limit ourselves. Our team of local, certified pest experts provide fast, safe, and effective pest control & extermination services across the Greater Toronto Area. The  pestzone Pest Control Toronto is one of the top leading pest control companies in Toronto. We use the best chemicals for handling pests whether it’s in your home, office or any other areas. We are always ready to handle any insects or pests. Bed bugs are not nocturnal, but they do exhibit nocturnal behavior. These insects are more active at night, because this is when the host is sleeping. So, they can feed without being detected by the host. To ensure they remain undetected, the  #1 Bed Bug Exterminator in Winnipeg MB| Control-Removal-Treatments! excretes an enzyme that contains numbing properties. Before injecting the feeding tube into the host’s skin, the bed bug will excrete the enzyme on the skin to make sure it is numb. This way the host does not feel anything, when the feeding tube is injected into the skin.

The most startling statistic is the relatively low inventory of available properties on the market. As of June 30th, there were 1096 residential properties listed for sale. When you compare that to the 1,680 sales made in 2016, we only have a 7.8 month inventory of available homes for sale. A1 Bed Bug Exterminator | Syracuse Division provide best pest control service. When you consider that some of that inventory has been on the market for over 90 days (probably because they are overpriced), then the number of truly salable properties is very low compared to demand. This statistic says we have a very healthy sellers market! Nature First Pest Control Serving Beaverton fix the environmental reasons for your pest problem.

If you have been considering putting your home on the market, now is the time to seriously consider doing so. Your real estate professional at RE/MAX Rocky Mountain Real Estate can provide you with a CMA (comparable market analysis) which will tell you what your property ought to sell for by looking at other sales of comparable properties in your area. This analysis will tell you what the market of buyers are paying for properties like yours. In this healthy market, if your property is priced accordingly, it should sell in a reasonably short time period. If overpriced, it will join those properties that have been on the market for months.
