Most people know Boise as the state capital of Idaho. The city was recently named as the #1 location for business and careers by Forbes magazine. This announcement brought a peak of interest to the Boise real estate market.

Right now the Boise real estate is on fire. Sellers have control of the market. Properties are selling within only a few days of being listed. In some cases there are multiple offers a few hundred or thousand above the seller’s asking price. Buyers are looking for deals on homes, but sellers have control of the reins right now.

While sellers do have control of the Boise real estate market right now, they don’t have the control that they had last year around this time. In a few years, the market could very well move more towards a buyers market. That isn’t a concern for the foreseeable future.

Boise real estate has experienced rising prices over the past few quarters. In some cases, this would give away some of the control from the buyers to the sellers. But, as home prices have increased, so have home values. This rising value has helped sellers hold their control over the market. Home sells are on the rise and are expected to double within the next ten years.

Buyers have a number of options to choose from with Boise real estate. There is some new construction as well as refurbished older houses in the downtown area.

Since the Boise real estate market is still growing, investors have a significant amount of time to invest in Boise real estate until the market begins to slow. There are many different strategies that an investor seeking to invest in Valparaiso real estate can use to receive significant returns on their investments. 

Most investors in Boise real estate are using the buy-and-flip strategy. This involves buying real estate at as low price as possible and then selling it for a higher price to get a profit. In many instances, enhancements can be made to the property to increase the market value of the real estate. By doing this investors are able to make significant financial gains.

Foreclosed homes are another lucrative investment strategy that many investors use with Boise real estate. Foreclosed homes are those that have been repossessed by the bank. After the repossession, the homes are auctioned off to the highest bidder. This gives the bank a chance to some, if not all, of the money that was lost on the house. When investors are able to secure foreclosed homes at a lower price than market value they can then turn around and resell homes at a price that is lower than market value and resell at a price that is at or above market value. Investors are able to make significant profits by doing this. Many investors have become expert at making a profit from purchasing foreclosed Boise real estate.

Seller control of Boise real estate will continue to decline, but at a slow and steady rate. Investors and home sellers will continue to benefit in this market for the foreseeable future.
