My wife and I are wanting to move to Lander. She went to school there and we cant wait to get back. Would love any info on the job world! I am a firefighter and am looking into BLM or the Forest Service. But we will take anything. Also are there alot of vacant homes for lease or sell?

Thankyou

I looked into the Lander real estate market last fall, and was impressed with how nice some of the older neighborhood homes were, as well as some of the properties on acreage on the outskirts of town.

But the price points were pretty strong for the marketplace, and my interest was buying a property for investment ... to buy and then lease out, as there appeared to be very few properties available to lease. I looked at several homes through two real estate agencies, and simply couldn't make the numbers work for me. I only needed the properties to break even on the PITI and maintenance costs, and I didn't see that happening in the current marketplace.

I think you'd need to contact the local real estate agencies directly to see what's on offer these days, and to put that marketplace in the perspective of what the wage scales are there that you can realistically expect to earn if you do get a job there.
