Eagle Idaho is a desireable, upscale community nestled along the base of the Boise
foothills. Eagle offers high-end, quality-crafted homes, fine dining, boutique shopping
and a friendly community. The Boise river meanders through Eagle and you'll often
find folks walking the greenbelt or enjoying a peaceful picnic along the banks.
Eagle offers convenient access to the entire Treasure Valley and provides direct
routes to northern ski areas, foothills hiking, river rafting and other fun Idaho
outdoor activities. If you prefer newer construction homes in an upscale market
then Eagle is the place for you. Pictured above is Rembrandt’s Coffee House in Eagle’s
quaint downtown area.

North Boise is one of the most sought after communities in the Boise area. Affectionately
referred to as The North End, here you will find classic architecture and character
in the turn of the century and early 1900's era homes. Many homes in The North End
have been fully restored to their original condition with a complementary touch
of modern conveniences. If you enjoy tree-lined streets, patio-dining at corner
restaurants and quiet and peaceful neighborhoods then be certain to see a few Boise
homes in this area during your visit. Pictured above is Boise’s historic Harrison
Boulevard which runs from Boise’s thriving downtown through the heart of The North
End.

Here are 3 things to consider to help you navigate what you should or should not do prior to listing.
1. If there are maintenance items or simple repairs such as cleaning, caulking edges, or paint touch up, we suggest you do that prior to photos and listing the house. You only have one chance to make a great first impression and these simple things will help with the Wow factor!
Like all sellers, you want your hometo appeal to a wide range of buyers who can afford your asking price. However, to stand out in the market and get TOP dollar you need to make your home look as desirable as possible.
Tried-and-true tactics such as painting, cleaning or replacing carpet and decluttering can go a long way toward achieving this goal. Other simple home staging tips can up your home's WOW factor and lead to a quick sale.
Your Realtor will help you with this as they are not emotionally connected to the decorations you have lovingly placed around your home. Please pack up your personal belongings, you are moving soon and have to pack your things anyway.
2. If you are considering investing $5,000 or more in upgrades, first check to see if that changes the price you will net. Quite often we see that in a Seller's market, it may not be worth investing in because you can still get the money you need without that expense. Now, every situation is different which is why we counsel you through your specific situation so that you can make the best decision for you.
3. Look at the list through the eyes of the Buyer.
If you were looking at your home to purchase, would these items stand out as a problem to you? If so, fix it! Expensive maintenance items like exterior paint, new roofs, overgrown trees, driveway and concrete issues are a scary unknown $$$$ to many buyers.
While this list can help you discern what you should do, I am always just a phone call away to help you navigate that decision making process. Call me to make a game plan to get your house ready to sell!
The last couple years have been abnormal with fewer sales, less inventory available & values changing. New construction is still very popular in Idaho. It is really wonderful to have a brand new home.
Market conditions, politics, interest rates, higher lending costs & uncertainty have definately been a factor in recent Home Sales. Sellers may have longer Days on The Market then we perceive as Normal....
The value of your property today is based on the inventory of properties for sale, the number of buyers available, location, condition & the scarcity of similar properties.
Sellers can achieve a sale only by being competitive on their price.
If you choose to price competitively it will sell!
