Kanye West Sells His $14 Million Wyoming Ranch Back to Original Owners — At a Huge Loss
Media Take Out has learned that Kanye West has officially sold his Bighorn Mountain Ranch in Wyoming — the same sprawling property he once called his “therapy ranch” — and he did so at a major loss. Sources confirm that Kanye sold the estate for less than $8 million, even though he bought it for $14 million in 2019. That means Ye took an estimated $6 million hit on the deal.
Kanye’s Dream Ranch Falls Apart
Back in 2019, Kanye purchased Bighorn Mountain Ranch — a stunning 6,713-acre property near Greybull, Wyoming — as part of his grand plan to escape Hollywood, find peace, and build a self-sustaining empire. The purchase came right after he scooped up the nearby Monster Lake Ranch for $8 million. At the time, Ye talked about constructing futuristic domes to help combat homelessness and provide housing for creatives.
But those grand visions never materialized. Following his split from Kim Kardashian and a series of public scandals, including his 2022 antisemitic remarks that cost him multiple brand deals, Kanye’s Wyoming dreams collapsed. Both properties fell into disrepair, with locals describing Monster Lake Ranch as missing windows, walls, and even a roof.
By late 2024, Kanye had listed Bighorn for $12 million — a full $2 million below what he paid. But when no serious buyers stepped up, he quietly struck a deal with the ranch’s original owners, Greg and Pam Flitner, earlier this year.
The Flitners Take Back Their Family Land
A deed filed on September 17, 2025, shows that the Flitners — whose family has owned the ranch for over 100 years — bought it back from Kanye. The sale paperwork was notarized by Bianca Censori, Kanye’s wife, acting on his behalf.
According to Pam Flitner, the land was “still intact” but had fallen into significant decay. She told Cowboy State Daily, “Unlike Monster Ranch, he didn’t knock down any of the buildings. I think his original intent might have been somewhere his family could go and be away from the rest of the world.”
The ranch features a five-bedroom, four-bath log home, a cookhouse, and three additional guest cabins. It’s surrounded by National Forest land, filled with meadows, canyons, and grazing pastures.
The Flitners said their priority was protecting the ranch’s agricultural legacy. “We’re just relieved to have it back,” Pam said. “This land has been in our family for generations. We didn’t want to see it turned into a subdivision.”
Media Take Out’s Take
What was once Kanye West’s $14 million “creative sanctuary” has now become another cautionary tale about his post-Kim era. After listing the property for $12 million and ultimately selling for less than $8 million, Kanye appears to have lost around $6 million on the deal — not counting upkeep, taxes, and staff costs.
Still, the Flitners say they hold no bad blood. “He was always polite,” Greg told reporters. “He just lost focus.”
With this sale, Kanye’s Wyoming chapter is officially over — and the once-promised “Yeezy utopia” is now just a piece of land returning to its roots.
