Boise Regional REALTORS® March 2023 housing market update for Boise (ADA county)
In February, the median sales price of homes in Ada County was $492,115, down 10.5% YoY but up $5,000 from the previous month. New homes accounted for over 40% of sales, keeping prices slightly higher. The month-over-month increase might signal a new price normally.
Key data points:
Median sales price: $492,115
YoY price change: -10.5%
New homes: 40% of sales
Total sales: 613 (7.3% lower YoY)
Days on market: 78 (highest since February 2012)
Inventory: 1,039 homes available (compared to 493 last year)
Distressed sales: 0.3% (compared to 45.4% in February 2012)
The market is different from the 2012 housing bubble recovery period due to supply and demand factors, fewer distressed sales, and better credit positions for sellers. Buyers have more negotiation power and options, while sellers need to work closely with real estate agents to price and market effectively. First-time buyers can explore down payment assistance programs and Idaho First-Time Home Buyer savings accounts.
