The Boise Valley

This will be the first of a new series of blogs we're calling the "5". The "5" will highlight five specific properties in any number of classes, price points, or neighborhoods in one of the markets that we specialize in here in The Boise Valley!

Located in the beautiful "Lakeharbor" subdivision. Enjoy strolls along the Boise River or find adventure in any number of Lake activities; fishing, canoeing, sailing, or just a wonderful picnic in a beautiful setting.

The January data is in and I've updated the "Local Market Reports" page on my website, TheBoiseValley.com.  Below i've put together some "average" data of Canyon and Ada counties.  There are big differences between the two so keep that in mind as you go over the data...remember "All Real Estate is LOCAL"!  If you require further filtering by area or some other criteria you can download the full reports from the "Local Market Reports" page or contact me and I can put something together with as much or little detail as needed.  I will post updated data around the middle of each month and will post "quarterly" data as it comes in.

• Average rolling Monthly sold Price: -.95%
• Average sold Price: $191,707 Ada/$107,322 Canyon
• Monthly sold Volume: 428 (282 Ada/146 Canyon)
• Inventory (12 months): 8.75 months

The "Local Market Reports" page on TheBoiseValley.com has just been updated to include the December data for Ada, Boise, Canyon, and Valley counties.  I've also added the 4th Quarter reports for each of these as well and will continue to update those as I've had good response on that view of the market data.  Again remember that "all Real Estate is LOCAL!" (click the link for a good article explaining this phenomenon) and if you need some more specific data I can get that for you in just about any shape or form you can imagine...contact me I'd love to get that put together for you!  Look for the monthly updates around the middle of the following month.  Here is a quick break down of the two counties that make up The Boise Valley. The data is for existing as well has "new Construction"...

ADA County

CANYON County

Well it looked like another good turnout for the 8th annual Zeitgeist Half-Marathon run around The Hidden Springs community in The Boise Foothills at the North-East end of The Boise Valley!  While the registration numbers pushed a thousand it was hard to tell how many showed up but It looked like several hundred anyway!  This is just one of the many foot races run through Hidden Springs each year.  Include the many bike races and the "Bicycle Friendly" Community Designation and you have one of the most active communities anywhere in the nation.  Moving here several years ago was the best "quality of life" decision our family has made.  Our neighbors are a rare blend of caring and fun!  Let me know if anyone out there has any questions concerning Hidden Springs or The Boise Valley for that matter!
