Did Little People, Big World’s Matt Roloff sell out?
The Roloff Farms sale has been confusing
The sale of Roloff Farms has been quite confusing. In May 2022, Matt originally listed the 16 acres, including the original family home, for sale for $4 million. However, he withdrew the listing in December 2023 after lowering the price to $3,395,000. After a failed sale, Matt turned the property into a short-term rental, allowing guests to stay in the family home from November 2022. Therefore, it seems that the farm has not been soldand he and Caryn still live in the property.
Matt revealed that Jacob Roloff currently runs the entire farm. However, this is not a long-term solution. Matt has previously stated on the show that Amy will inherit the property after her death to avoid conflict between their children, and Caryn agrees to this arrangement. While the farm’s decisions undoubtedly tore the Roloff family apart, Matt seems to express some remorse. There’s nothing she can do to go back in time, but maybe with a little humility she and Zach can heal, even though Zach and Tori Little people, big world term is over.
