A popular American television series has inspired a ranch-buying rush that’s being called the Yellowstone effect.
“There’s a renowned impulse to own ranches,” said Tyler Ruttan of CLHbid.com, an online auction website. “Maybe not sitting in L.A. no more; it’s more attractive to be sitting in Montana or Wyoming.”
Fittingly, the owners of a B.C. ranch near Beaverdell are hoping to cash in on the show’s popularity.
In fact, the owners are branding their property as a real-life version of the fictional Yellowstone Ranch.
The ranch near Beaverdell has 670 deeded acres plus 73,000 acres of grazing rights.

The ranch also has 220 irrigated acres along with a creek and lakes for fishing, along with a horse arena and outbuildings for equipment – along with a 5,000-square foot executive log home.

A lot. Qualifying offers start at $5.9 million.
