Many people are worried
about national real estate numbers and the Boise homes sales
numbers are no different. The current economic crisis has
scarred the real estate landscape like clear clut logging in
the 70's did to our forests. The fact is that the biggest
crisis in real estate Idaho has experienced has been from the
slowing job market. Nationally the jobless numbers are at 7.2%
and Idaho is no different. Unemployment is causing home sales
numbers to drop significantly, but even more worriesome is, it
is also increasing the default/foreclosure rate. Mix that with
the lower income levels in Idaho and you have a real estate
market that may take a long time to recover. Aside from areas
in east Boise real estate in the Treasure Valley has
depreciated about 15% in the last year to year analysis. I know
this sounds like a lot of bad news, but it isn't necessarily
bad.
There is a few bright spots
in the Boise homes sales numbers and that is that foreclosure's
are slowing, and that is due to many people who had market
dependant jobs have already lost their homes. In other words,
everything that can be shaken loose has been shaken. This means
that the current downturn in real estate Idaho has experienced
will begin to recover if rates remain low, and inventory will
begin to be absorbed quicker. The price trend in east Boise
real estate are still pretty sound and will continue to be
stable as the preference for the area remains.
The Boise rental market is
improving as well as property managers have started to do fewer
credit checks due to the higher number of foreclosures, and the
necessity of the people who have lost their home still needing
to rent a home. The Boise rental numbers and the Boise homes
sales numbers may seem to be in a negative corelation with each
other but as more new home owners seek to get into home
ownership that will change. The slow down in real estate Idaho
has experienced has been a large contributor to the
foreclosure/default volumes locally. The real estate industry
supplied many jobs to Treasure Valley residents. Now with
Micron laying off some workers in east Boise real estate may
suffer a second blow, but will improve within a few
years.
Boise homes sales are
starting get back into balance and the negative factors are
starting to be cancelled out slowly. It may take years for the
market for real estate Idaho once had to return, but it will.
It was previously one of the best values in the West and the
unstable parts of the market get shored up, and the California
real estate market stablizes it will be again. As the
California real estate market stability spreads east Boise real
estate will return to a normal market with marginal 3-6 percent
annually appreciation as it was before, just with better home
prices now.
