Need a Realtor/Broker in SW Idaho? Don't settle for just an agent, when you can work directly with an experienced broker. I serve all of the Boise Metro and surrounding areas. My strengths? First, experience- I've shown and assessed thousands of homes, written hundreds of contracts, attended & negotiated many inspections, appraisals & closings. Second, as a life-long DIYer I know how to fix/build just about everything in a home and can provide competent counsel on most issues we'll find when evaluating homes.
I take my responsibility as your agent very seriously and will always treat you with respect and patience. I relentlessly advocate for my clients' best interest without high-pressure sales tactics. I offer buyer & seller representation backed by 35 years of experience and local knowledge at a competitive price. See my About Page for background and reviews from past clients. I'm never too busy to answer your questions, so call/text me today at 208-866-3481.
Mortgage rates rose to 1-year high this week, now at 6.66%. Inflation has eased, but remains higher than the Fed's target, so don't expect mortgage rates to fall much in the near future. See below the weekly average of Freddie Mac's survey of lenders for the last year for an owner-occupied 30-year fixed rate.
Thinking about selling your home? Getting you the highest possible price is my goal. My last 50 listings sold for an average 100.3% of asking. Call/text me for a free no obligation consultation or second opinion on current value and advice on preparing the property for sale including improvements that pay off in resale value and what actions will just help it sell faster. Don't want to talk yet? Get an INSTANT property valuation now for a ballpark estimate.
Getting ready to buy a home? I would be happy to discuss your situation, mortgage programs, credit requirements and the feasibility of qualifying for the home that meets your needs/wants. I will ensure you know what to expect from out-of-pocket expenses to time-lines of the home-buying process. I can also recommend great proven local lenders to help you get pre-qualified. Don't assume you can't qualify- know what it takes! Call/text me today at 208-866-3481

What's happening in Boise & SW Idaho housing markets? Our local markets are slowly transitioning toward normal after years of sellers holding all the cards. Persistent low supply is trending upward but is still pushing prices higher during peak season as our population continues to grow. See my Market Monitor in the top menu for monthly updates and a unique perspective on the local housing markets. I've been tracking market conditions; prices, inventory levels, construction levels, supply & demand balance for years. Also see my Blog above for more market updates.
What’s happening in your neighborhood? You can create a custom market report to see what’s active, under contract, and sold in your neighborhood or general area.
New Low-down Option for First-time Homebuyers! One of my favorite lenders (Jesse Stroup at Home Loans of Idaho) just shared with me a new program for buyers of homes under $350k. Only 1% down payment required with the other 2% in the form of a grant from the lender. (3% down payment is the lowest available other than VA) If we can get the seller to pay your closing costs (typically near 3%), you could buy a home for less than $4k out of pocket and start building equity! Ask me for his contact info to see if you qualify.
Contact Me today with any questions. I've served hundreds of buyers, investors & sellers in the Boise Metro area and SW Idaho since 1991.
