Begin with the end in mind: Start your next advisory relationship with a clear exit strategy...

Boise Area Housing Market

3/9/2017

Kelly Simon, a local Treasure Valley real estate agent, has posted the most recent information on housing in the Boise area. We intend to publish this quarterly.With a little luck I'll be able to find someone in the Inland Empire to do the same.  Here are a few of her comments on the market:

​Inventory in Ada County is at an all-time low.  January was the lowest inventory that this valley has seen in 17 years and it is down 20% from last year.   There are only 555 re-sale homes for sale versus the 994 homes  available at this time last year.   The builders in the valley are building as fast as they can to build up their inventory, but with that being said there is only a 2 month supply of new construction versus a 6 month supply of new homes this time last year.   This is at least a 9 year low for New Construction inventory in Ada County.

"Big Government"

2/21/2017

If you have an interest in the size and growth of federal, state and local governments the article posted to our blog will likely fascinate you. All of the specific, verifiable numbers are illustrated and explained.

Given the recent presidential campaign and the president's current rhetoric I found the recent article from the Brookings Institute extremely interesting. It outlines the stats on the size and scope of Federal, State and local government. The most surprising data point is that the number of federal employees has remained relatively steady even though the country's population has steadily increased. State and local government have made up the difference. I suspect it's an effort to push local control. So, state and local governments are given grants and general funding to provide services in their states and municipalities.
