Hard to find homes in Boise, Idaho
I was looking for homes in a particular price range the other day that my client wanted in the Rocky Mountain High School area in Meridian, Idaho. There were only five homes available and four were short sales and one was a bank-owned home. It's hard to make a family happy, like this foursome below, when you have to wait for banks to decide on whether they can own a home or not.
If you need to close on a home within a specific time frame, it can be hard to find homes in the Boise, Idaho area. Many of the homes available for sale are "short sales" which can carry several issues. Often the seller loses interest in the house since they are going to lose the house anyway and receive no money at closing, so where is the incentive to maintain the house.
In addition, the lender usually takes far longer to make a decision even after they have received all the required paperwork from the seller and the offer accepted between the buyer and seller. Often a buyer can't wait for the seller's lender to decide, so the same house is under contract and then out of contract, making the homes stay on the market longer and longer.
In fact, according to the Intermountain MLS, only 27% of the homes available for sale will sell this year on average for all the Realtors in the MLS. Individual Realtors have a better track record, like the Tim Burroughs Group at Keller Williams Realty-Boise, Idaho, has a 66% success of sale rate.
