Flathead Lake Real Estate - June 2024 Sales

Flathead Lake Real Estate

There were four waterfront sales reported for Flathead Lake in June bringing the year-to-date total to just over $36.5M in sales with 11 transactions. The slow start to the selling season is similar to the start of 2023 over the same period with 12 transactions and $29.9M.

Inventory has begun to increase, including some lower priced properties that have moved the median list price down. We expect this will result in increased sales activity as we move through the summer season.
