Finally — and with a hat tip to my good friend and fellow old school guy, Phil Hoover, a nationally read newspaper puts into print what we have been telling our clients, and anyone else who would listen for almost two years now:
Idaho — Boise especially — is the bomb. (For you folks over 40, that means Boise is the Cat’s Meow. For those over 60, it means Boise is the Bee’s Knees.)

An in depth article on the state, including Boise, pointed out why the smart real estate investors are putting that region on their A-List of places to invest — or live.

The word’s getting out folks. When USA TODAY figures it out…
The time window for buying well located properties for sensible prices — while staying under the radar — is slipping away.

The current loan/credit problem is giving us extra cover for sure. Time, however, isn’t on your side if you’re looking to be one of those real estate investors who will be looking back in a few years, reminiscing about the good ol’ days. You know, when everyone including your Aunt Fannie didn’t know Boise’s humungous potential way back in ’06-’07 — but they were able to sneak in under the radar and score Big-Time.

Let this stand as my umpteenth declaration of how fundamentally sound Boise investments are now — and will be in the very long run.
My crystal ball remains as cracked as yours — nothing’s changed there. If there’s a real estate investment no-brainer — Boise’s it.
Enough said.

I’ve never been to Boise but the photos are nice.
The folks are as high character, easy going, and hospitable as those in your area. It’s an incredible region in every aspect, which is why it’s become so popular as a place to live, but also to invest.

Howzat Jeff?
What age group does that put me in?
We’re in the same boat, Phil. We’ve refused to acknowledge birthdays in any meaningful way.
I refuse to grow older, but have noticed that the rest of the population is getting younger
