Welcome to
EASTERN MONTANA'S TRUSTED LAND & RANCH BROKER
Serving Billings, Joliet, and surrounding Eastern Montana with expert guidance in buying, selling, and marketing recreational, ranch, and agricultural land.
Welcome to Montana Land and Ranch
Buying or selling property in Eastern Montana isn’t just about dirt and deeds — it’s about dreams, family, and the way of life we love out here under the Big Sky. I’m Erik Erickson — a rancher, veteran, and land broker based outside of Billings, in Joliet, Montana. I work with folks who’ve called this land home for decades, and with those who are chasing the Montana dream from other parts of the country.
Whether you’re right here in Billings, Red Lodge, Columbus, or arriving from hundreds of miles away, I’ll help you find your place in this incredible part of the world. Maybe you’re looking for your first piece of hunting land. Maybe you’re selling a family ranch that’s been in your care for generations. Or maybe you’re relocating your life — and your work — under this wide-open sky.
Whatever your story, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. My approach is simple: honest advice, clear communication, and hard work to help you get the results you’re going after.
Land & Ranch Sales
From sprawling cattle operations to smaller recreational retreats, I’ll help you find a property that fits your goals and your budget. I’ll guide you through water rights, well permits, fencing laws, grazing capacity, soil health, and access — so there are no surprises after closing.
Commercial Properties
From high-visibility retail locations in Billings to multi-acre development sites, land leases and multi-family properties, I help business owners, developers, and real estate managers locate properties that align with their operational and financial objectives. Whether you’re expanding your footprint or divesting assets, you can expect strong market insight, valuation expertise, and negotiation skills to ensure your next acquisition is the right one.
Select Residential & Lifestyle Properties
While my specialty is land and commercial property, I can also help with unique residential opportunities — especially those with acreage, views, and space for the Montana lifestyle you’re after. Whether you’re chasing the Big Sky dream, moving up, or downsizing to something more manageable, I can help you find a home that's right for your next chapter.
Selling Your Montana Land, Ranch, or Home Isn’t Just a Transaction — It’s the Next Chapter of Your Life
Letting go of land that has been part of your family for generations, or selling your home, is never just a business decision — it’s personal. It’s a chapter of your history, filled with memories, hard work, and stories that have shaped your life. I understand the weight of that decision, and my role is to make the process easier, protect your interests, and help you achieve the results you’re going after.
From long-held family ranches and recreational parcels to business properties and distinctive homes, I act as your advocate from listing to closing — ensuring every step is handled with respect, transparency, and as profitable as possible, so that you can move forward to the next chapter of your life.
before you sell
Choose a Broker Who Treats Your Land Like Legacy, Not Just Another Listing --and one who knows the Land.
Proven Marketing Strategy
Every property is unique, and I make sure it’s presented that way. I combine drone footage, professional mapping, targeted online and print exposure, and a national broker network to put your property in front of serious, qualified buyers.
Privacy
Options
If discretion matters, I offer off-market sales where property is shown only to qualified buyers -- no public listings, no signs, no unnecessary traffic.
Negotiation for the Highest Price
I’m not just here to take offers; I work to secure the strongest deal possible, backed by experience and a deep understanding of Eastern Montana’s land and commercial market.
Accurate
Valuations
Not all ‘comps’ are created equal. I use the latest advanced technology and AI tools, combined with rural, agricultural, and commercial market data — along with your property’s unique features — to price it accurately and attract serious buyers.
If you’re thinking about buying or selling property — even if you just need some straight advice — reach out to Montana Land & Ranch. We’re here to help.
