In the Boise real estate market, there are some great times to buy and not so great times. Now could be one of the best times in history.
There are currently over 4,300 that are available on the Boise real estate market which does not include any homes that are listed by non-MLS brokers or for sale by owners. Of the available homes, over 2,300 are currently listed as vacant which is over 50%. When no one is living in a home, you can usually get them to come off of their price a bit more. The average asking price is $311,000 and the median asking price is $237,884

As you can see by the numbers, you are in a much better position to buy this year than last as there is more inventory and the sales price has dropped. With unbelievable interest rates, the Boise real estate market is going to be too tempting to pass up for many buyers.
When you are selling your home in a market like this, make sure that you understand that you have to price it right or you will be in for a long frustrating wait. On the other hand, if you are going to relocate within the Boise real estate market, you stand a very good chance of making up for your selling loss if you know the market numbers. This can be especially good when you are moving up to a more expensive house. The more expensive areas and homes have taken a bigger hit in values in most areas in percentage of drop and dollar value.
Don't be one of the people that make the mistake of waiting until the market is good to buy. You want to get the best deals available? Then purchase your investments when the supply is high and price is low. It is the old supply vs. demand principle.
