From Our Friends At Boise Regional REALTORS®

ADA COUNTY

MEDIAN SALES PRICE —

  • The single-family MSP took a break from its $30k MOM spike last month but still bumped up $1.5k since Mar.
  • Resale homes recovered slightly from MOM hikes in Apr, easing by nearly $2k compared to Mar 2024.

HOMES SOLD —

  • We're up by about 100 home sales in Ada County compared to the previous year, a strong start to the Spring season.
  • New builds had the highest sales counts in Apr since Mar 2023 (324).

PENDING SALES —

  • Ada County hasn't seen this frequency of pending sales since Jun 2022.
  • Apr's resale pending sales outshined all months since May 2022, up by 120 new contracts since Mar 2024.

INVENTORY —

  • Apr 2024 marked the strongest YOY jump (+19.9%) since Mar 2023 (+89.3%).
  • With a spike in pending contracts, home sales, and market speeds, increased inventory is a welcome friend.

DAYS ON MARKET —

  • Single-family market speeds accelerated to Summer 2023 speeds this month.
  • Resale's DOM shrank beyond what we've seen since Jun 2022 (14 days). New builds sold 8 days faster in Apr compared to Mar.

A MESSAGE FROM BRR'S PRESIDENT —

"April experienced a seemingly balanced boost to all areas of the market: while market demand increased, so did the available number of homes. We're excited to see the uptick in both buyer and seller activity."

~Elizabeth Hume, Boise Regional REALTORS® 2024 President


CANYON COUNTY

MEDIAN SALES PRICE —
  • Single-family homes added approx. $16k to their MSP from Mar to Apr 2024, up $40k from Apr 2023.
  • New builds carried the most weight for MSP shifts, boosting by $20k from Mar to Apr 2024.

HOMES SOLD —

  • In the past year, the only month we've seen >420 home sales was Aug 2023 with 435 closed contracts.
  • There was a 60-home hike in MOM sales for resale and 11-home slide for new builds.

PENDING SALES —

  • New resale contracts haven't been this hot since May 2022 at 297 newly signed contracts.
  • On the contrary, new build trends have been back-and-forth since Jan.

INVENTORY —

  • Apr showed a much-needed recovery of inventory, nearing the selection we had prior to the initial spike of interest rates (Oct 2022 at 7.08%).
  • Like Ada, new inventory is combatting market demand.

DAYS ON MARKET —

  • DOM for Canyon County have remained unchanged for the past 3 months.
  • Canyon's new build DOM was the only sector in BRR's jurisdiction to experience a MOM slow-down.

A MESSAGE FROM BRR'S PRESIDENT —

"While availability between new construction and resale are nearly identical, trends for each sector remain unique due to price point and consumer desire."

ADA COUNTY

MEDIAN SALES PRICE —

  • The last time we experienced a >$30k leap in MOM sales price was from Mar to Apr 2023 at $32,500. Feb to Mar 2024 jumped by $33,000.
  • Resale's $56k hike marks the greatest MOM jump in Ada County's history.

HOMES SOLD —

  • Sales in Mar 2024 bumped up by more than 100 closedcontracts compared to the previous month.
  • This month's sales were comparable to Apr and Oct 2023.

PENDING SALES —

  • Pending sales spiked to the highest frequency we've seen since Aug 2022.
  • Resale market heat for Mar 2024 nearly climbed to summertime (478 signed contracts in Jul 2023) temperatures.

INVENTORY —

  • Options rebounded to pre-winter counts, surpassing the selection that was available in Mar 2023.
  • While inventory dwindled compared to Feb 2024, consumer consumption of new builds eased slightly.

DAYS ON MARKET —

  • Existing homes went undercontract 8 days quicker than the month prior while new construction speeds eased by 14 days. There were 16 new builds that remained on the market for >200 days in Mar 2024.

A MESSAGE FROM BRR'S PRESIDENT —

"Resale availability continues to struggle the most in keeping up with consumer demands, leaving room for increased home prices. Using a REALTOR® who is specialized in buyer negotiations can make the difference in a client's success in today's market."

~Elizabeth Hume, Boise Regional REALTORS® 2024 President

CANYON COUNTY

MEDIAN SALES PRICE —
  • Canyon's $4k bump insingle-family home sales price compared to Feb 2024 was significantly less dramatic than Ada's $30k jump.
  • Resale homes rose the most at approx. $17k compared to Feb 2024.

HOMES SOLD —

  • Historically slimmer pending sales in previous months led to Mar 2024's thinned YOY comparison.
  • With that said, Mar marked the third consecutive month of double-digit positive MOM increases.

PENDING SALES —

  • Mar 2024's new contract signings were similar in quantity to those in Jun 2023, showing a warming of the market.
  • This marked the fourth consecutive YOY increase in new build pending sales.

INVENTORY —

  • After an 8-month streak of either negative or single-digit increases in inventory, Canyon's new options came with a warm welcome in Mar.
  • New construction still hovers below last winter's available inventory.

DAYS ON MARKET —

  • In Mar 2024, existing homes sold 4 days faster than Feb 2024 but revved 23 days quicker than Mar 2023.
  • New builds are "leaving the shelf" 40 days faster than Mar 2023, contributing to low inventory.

A MESSAGE FROM BRR'S PRESIDENT —

"The slow squeeze of inventory versus demand caused a slight increase in March's Median Sales Price. As we move into Spring, we hope to see new listings pop up to help balance the market for both buyers and sellers."
