I was out showing homes in the Nampa Idaho Real Estate and Caldwell Idaho Real Estate areas yesterday instead of in the Boise Real Estate area and found out you can buy a brand new home in NW Caldwell for $115,000! Some start as low as $109,900! Big shock to me that you could still find a new home for that price in this Boise Metro Real Estate area.

A little off the subject of Boise Idaho Real Estate, on March 20, 1968 I returned home from going to Basic Training and Techinal School as a Machinist for the Idaho Air National Gurad. I just wanted to take a minute here to say Gob Bless All Our Troups where ever they might be today and watch over them and their families.

Hope you have a Terrific Day! Tom Zumwalt 208-861-2344

I was just looking on the Boise MLS for Boise Id Real Estate that is 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, 2 car garage over 1,000 square feet that is $150,000 or less. I was surprised! There's 19 homes out there in the Boise Real Estate market for $150,000 or less. There's even some brand new homes that meet that criteria! I remember not too long ago that it was hard to find anything in the Boise Idaho Real Estate market for less than $200,000! It tells me that there's people out there that couldn't afford a home a year ago that can now! Prices have come down and Real Estate in Boise Idaho is starting to move! You might say, well they did away with all the programs that assist us in purchasing a home. Well, there's still down payment assistance programs out there right now and at this point in time the seller can contribute up to 6% of the sales price in buyer concessions on an FHA loan. So if you have a good credit score and have been putting off buying a home, now is the time to buy, prices are down, interest rates are good, and there assistance still out there to help you buy. There's still a first time home buyers loan out there. Most people think it's just there first ever home that they can use the first time home buyers loan on, but if you haven't owned a home in 3 years you qualify. So, give me a call, lets get you qualified for a loan, and go find you a home!

Great shot looking at downtown Boise. You're looking down Capital Blvd toward the Capital Building and Foot Hills

2008—the Best Year to Buy a Home in 35 Years! That's right! It's the best year to buy a home in the Boise Real Estate market in 35 year! Mortgage rates in April 1973 were about the same as they are today! Since 1973 the only time rates rates have been this low was during the seller's markets of 2001 and 2002 when there was very little inventory. The other two major buyer's markets were in the early 1980s and the other one was in the early 1990s, but the rates were much higher. In 1978 the interest rates were at 9.75 percent and climbing to 18-21 percent in 1980. In the early 1990s I remember the interest rate staying around 11-12 percent and remember getting a loan for 10 percent and thought it was great. Thus, take a look at the Boise Real Estate market today, lots of inventory, new and existing, with mortgage interest rate being exceptional low making this the best time to purchase Boise Idaho Real Estate in at least the past decade. So, what are you waiting for, the prices and interest rates to go up? Use my Boise Real Estate Search and start looking for that home now!

We had our office meeting in Nampa this morning at SilverCreek Realty and went and looked at Nampa Real Estate. Everyone at the office seemed to be in good humor and we had a Title & Escrow Officer talk to us and she said that the Title office was getting busier and that she felt that the Real Estate in Bosie Idaho and Nampa was picking up. We also had some lenders in talking to us about Boise Real Estate and Nampa Real Estate sales. They said they had been seeing more business also. They also explained a program for first time home buyers that they had going on. If a buyer puts $1,500 in this special Real Estate savings account the bank would match it by 3 times. In other words they would give you $4,500 dollars more to use toward your down payment and closing cost. The bank is Intermountain Community Bank, give them a call at 208-866-7651 to learn more or E-mail Missy at Missy at Intermountain Bank .Com to find out more about this program and than give me a call, 208-861-2344, and we'll go find you some Boise Real Estate or Nampa Real Estate.
