Most Expensive Real Estate Transaction of 2012 was…

Billionaire St. Louis Rams owner Stan Kroenke bought the 123,000-acre Broken O Ranch in Montana in November. While the final sale price was not revealed, if Kroenke paid anywhere near the $132.5 million asking price, it would have been by far the biggest residential real estate sale in the U.S. this year. It was sold by the estate of William and Desiree Moore, the late founders of the Kelley-Moore Paint Company.
