Boise Idaho Real Estate And The Foreclosure Debacle!
Written by Gavin J. King

The Boise Idaho real estate market was devastated in 2009, with just fewer than 5% of all homes in the area being foreclosed upon that year. This benchmark puts Boise at the top of the country for foreclosure pace given that that statistic is up over 102% from the preceding year, which was the highest year on record. Finding your city among the top 24 most troubled real estate markets in the nation has too many homeowners reviewing the limited options that are out there. Facing 10.1% unemployment rates and not too many bigger businesses moving to the area any time soon, prospects must improve soon to have a turn around.

The Boise Idaho real estate market was devastated in 2009, with just fewer than 5% of all homes in the area being foreclosed upon that year. This benchmark puts Boise at the top of the country for foreclosure pace given that that statistic is up over 102% from the preceding year, which was the highest year on record. Finding your city among the top 24 most troubled real estate markets in the nation has too many homeowners reviewing the limited options that are out there. Facing 10.1% unemployment rates and not too many bigger businesses moving to the area any time soon, prospects must improve soon to have a turn around.

The condition of the Boise Idaho real estate market has been a product of several key ingredients. Its population has more than doubled since 1980, and its market has diversified over the past half century. With a growing technology industry, local mega-corporation, Micron Technology employees the most people of all local businesses.

As in many Western cities, the Boise Idaho real estate market place was quite unpredictable throughout the boom. Home prices increased about 80% during the boom, from about 150k to about 260k during the peak years of the boom, according to the Wells Fargo NAHB Index. Since then selling prices have decreased more than 32%.

The resident economist at Boise State University, Christine Loucks indicates that there were two main contributing factors in the foreclosure problems now plaguing the Boise Idaho real estate market, which included speculative investments and a huge economic slowdown. Whenever there is a quick population increase, there is frequently real estate speculation due to the increased demand for housing.

After prices hit their apex speculation all but stopped which left locals to fight their way through all of the inflated costs the speculation brought. The vast majority of home flippers wound up writing off much of their homes and assets. Pink slips were issued as companies needed to pare back. High tech jobs went through a serious round of layoffs with about 2000 Micron employees and hundreds of HP workers losing their jobs, increasing the misery index on the Boise Idaho real estate market.

Nearly all construction having come to a halt as one local economist states. Despite suffering through much less damaging crises than other areas of the west, the Boise Idaho real estate market has had its share of pain, but will rebound in the near future.
