Here is the February data for The Boise Valley. I've updated the "Local Market Reports" page on my website, TheBoiseValley.com. See the "Average" general numbers below for Canyon and Ada counties. Remember that "All Real Estate is LOCAL"! That certainly goes here as well. You can download the full reports from the "Local Market Reports" page. Or if you need a custom report run ,by area or some other criteria, contact me and I can put something together with as much or little detail as you require. I typically post the updated data around the middle of each month and will post "quarterly" data as well as any "economic" reports, as deemed relevant and as it comes in. As always, if you need any assistance with real estate in The Boise Valley, or know anyone who does, please contact me and I will be happy to help in what ever way I can!
The IRS has released a "clarification" of the documentation needed when you submit for the "First Time Buyers" or "Move Up" tax credit. The 5405 form is still needed but the requirement that signatures of ALL parties be on the HUD-1 even in areas where BOTH buyer and seller signatures are not needed has been dropped. The verbatim statement: "In areas where signatures are not required on the settlement document, the IRS has clarified that it will accept a settlement statement if it is completed and valid according to local law. ... The IRS encourages those buyers to sign the settlement statement prior to attaching it to the tax return."
As for "Move Up" buyers the IRS is requiring documentation that the owners have lived in the previous home for 5 of the last 8 years. Accepted proof includes interest statements, tax records, or insurance records.
If you have any question or need any clarification on how this affects us here in The Boise Valley, please feel free to contact me.
The January data is in and I've updated the "Local Market Reports" page on my website, TheBoiseValley.com. Below i've put together some "average" data of Canyon and Ada counties. There are big differences between the two so keep that in mind as you go over the data...remember "All Real Estate is LOCAL"! If you require further filtering by area or some other criteria you can download the full reports from the "Local Market Reports" page or contact me and I can put something together with as much or little detail as needed. I will post updated data around the middle of each month and will post "quarterly" data as it comes in.
Coldwell Banker kicked has just kicked off a national ad campaign to keep the First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit on the radar of those who want to make the move to home ownership this year. Many prospective buyers do not know the details of this program such as you must have something in contract by April 30th, you will not be able to file electronically if claiming this credit, or even that current owners are elegible for a tax credit as well. Please visit my website at TheBoiseValley.com for more details or simple drop me a line and I'll be happy to shed light on this wonderful opportunity!
I am an “Accredited Buyer’s Representative” agent specializing in the Eagle, North and North West Boise, and North West Meridian, Idaho areas of “The Boise Valley”.
Growing up on a family dairy farm in eastern Idaho I learned early that hard work and your word would always serve you well. Graduating from high school in 1986 I began service for our country in the United States Marine Corps soon after. Returning to Idaho in 1991 after serving in the Persian Gulf War, I continued and concluded my education at Boise State University.
I met my wife Jennifer in 1998 and we were married in 2004 in a beautiful ceremony at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, followed by a festive Italian themed reception. Later that summer we honeymooned in Malta and the Western Mediterranean. We now have a "multi-generational" family with two precious daughters, three nephews, and a Mother/Grandmother; enjoying all that comes with raising a family and living life to the fullest.
I graduated from Boise State with an Associate's Degree in Computer Networking, followed by a Bachelor's of Applied Science and began an IT career as a Network/SMB analyst for a small consulting firm in Boise. A downturn in the local tech sector and a renewed interest in Real Estate and property management was the inspiration for a career change to Real Estate.
I am an "Accredited Buyer's Representative" Agent specializing in the North End and North West Boise and Eagle Idaho areas. I also List properties throughout the entire Boise Valley.
I also have the ePRO designation and leverage my technical background and my knowledge of local and national Real Estate markets to give my clients a unique insight and an "edge" towards meeting their specific needs. I strive to fulfill my slogan of "Valuable Properties ~ Invaluable Service" with friendly, personalized, and professional service seeking to create a truly tailored Real Estate experience.
"My wife and I recently purchased a home in Boise. Due to the nature of our purchase, a short sale, we encountered many roadblocks, delays, lack of communication, and resistance from the sellers and their lender. We are so thankful to have had Ric representing us throughout our purchase. From day one Ric demonstrated a firm understanding of Real Estate and proved a consummate professional. With his straight forward and honest communication style, Ric kept us informed and educated throughout the entire process. Ric, thank you for making what seemed impossible...possible for our family. We Love Our Home!"

"Recently I sold my home in the North West area of Boise, Idaho. During this time of financial downturn I believed that it would take a long time to sell. What I really appreciated was the knowledge and understanding of our current Real Estate market that Ric displayed. He was honest and up front with me throughout the entire process. Ric's research and knowledge helped me set the selling price competitively as it sold in 30 days and for some $5K over asking! I would recommend Ric to anyone who is buying or selling a home and know that you will not be disappointed."
Janet
"We were very lucky to have found Ric as our Realtor. He went above and beyond the typical service level expected with our long-distance move. Ric provided us with invaluable assistance in coordinating our buying and closing trip, supplementing us with important general information about the area and the real estate market so we could make an informed decision; as well as preparing our home for move-in. We attribute the smoothness of our move and our fabulous transition into life as Idahoans, to Ric's guidance and support!"
