For years, fans of Yellowstone, 1923, Landman and other Sheridan dramas have dreamed of trading city life for wide-open spaces. Ranch properties aren't just riding the broader housing market up: They're outpacing it by a significant margin.

Whether buyers are looking for thousands of acres or simply a home with room to spread out, growing demand has helped push ranch prices well beyond the pace of the broader housing market.
