Want to Own a Whole Town? This Montana Gem Is On the Market

Ever dreamed of owning your own town? Not just any town—but one sitting smack dab in the middle of Paradise Valley, one of the most jaw-droppingly beautiful places in all of Montana. Well, that dream could be a reality—if you've got the cash.

The unincorporated town of Pray, Montana, is up for sale. Yup, the whole thing. Nestled between the Absaroka Mountains and the Yellowstone River, this little slice of heaven offers views money can actually buy. It's rare that something this unique pops up for sale, and even rarer that it’s in a place like Paradise Valley.

The property is rather interesting because it is only 5 acres, but it comes with a built in rental business. In 2023 the property raked in $300k+ and it already has $100k in bookings reserved for 2025.

Here are some of the town’s highlights:

– 4 modern short-term rental units
– 1 long-term rental
– 1 RV spot
– General Store
– Management already in place
– And… a fully operational U.S. Post Office

The town of Pray still has its very own zip code (59865) and an active, government-run post office. Walk inside and you’ll feel like you just stepped back into the early 1900s—original boxes, vintage details, and that classic small-town vibe.

And who’s the mayor of Pray? That’d be you. The title is unelected, but the current owner holds it, and you’d be next in line to rule this tiny kingdom (crown not included).

Here's the big question: How much does the town of Pray cost? It will set you back $2.6 million. If you'd like to check out the listing you can view it HERE.
