East Boise Real Estate has long proved to be a wise move. For years, availability was limited to older homes, mostly outdated. Recent development in Harris Ranch however is changing the face of the East Boise Real Estate Market.
East Boise Real Estate & New Construction Today
In September of 2009, the completion of the East Parkcenter Bridge broke loose a log jam of pent up East Boise new construction in Barber Valley. The Mill District of Harris Ranch has been chugging along with 5 new home sales YTD with a median price of $266k. Compared to the resale activity of 9 sales YTD and median price of $267k, that’s a pretty sweet reason to buy new!
In addition to the Mill District activity, the new River Heights Community by Brighton Homes has sold 2 homes and has 5 more pending! This type of activity has gone on fairly unnoticed since most new construction at this scale hasn’t occurred in East Boise for almost 10 years!
When one considers East Boise as their location to purchase, until now, they’ve only been left with resale/used homes to choose from, many of which in their original style and design. This hasn’t stopped the East Boise Real Estate market from outperforming its competition though. Housing values in North East and South East Boise have consistently among the top performing areas to live regardless of how dated some of the homes remain.
River Heights and The Mill District have successfully combined the obvious benefits of new construction with the obvious benefits of East Boise in a manner that makes one wonder why anyone wouldn’t consider East Boise new construction as the best choice for a new home purchase.
When you’re ready for information about the East Boise Real Estate Market as well as the newest updates on The Mill District or River Heights, let me know!

New construction is always a good sign. Glad to see Easy Boise is pulling through all the bumps in the road. Thanks for this article.
Great when construction goes up. That means things are growing! Especially highways, that means even more growth out farther!
Good, New construction means also more jobs and the wheels slowly starting rolling again.
Great news. New construction means jobs. Thanks for this article.
It seems as though slowly but surely the market is coming around in Boise. Any projections for the rest of the year?
New construction means more jobs, more opportunities to sell.
If there are buyers in the marketplace, its not only jobs for construction workers, but real estate agents and all those jobs that service a home after the construction as well. Florists, Gas Stations, Grocery Stores…the list goes on and on.
My brother just went up to boise to check out your housing market, maybe ill be relocating too…

It’s good to know that good things are happening in East Boise specially for those realtors out there. Maybe if I have time I could visit Boise and see for myself what the place have to offer.
It’s nice to see you’ve got some good new homes being built in Boise and giving buyers a little variety in what they want to buy. Older houses may lose a little appeal if that is mostly what Boise has, but those homes have a lot of charm as well.
Yes building new homes is really good and changing new homes are too good.Thanks for such a great post.
