Boise, ID Housing Market 2026: What Homes Actually Sell For

If you invest in or around Boise, the number that matters is what homes actually close for, not what sellers are asking. Here is what Boise sale prices look like right now, built from the closings Resideline tracked over the last six months, as of September 2026.

The snapshot

  • Closings tracked, last 6 months: 604
  • Median sold price, last 6 months: $524,900
  • Median sold $/sqft, last 6 months: $318
One thing to know about Idaho data: Idaho is a non-disclosure state, which means sale prices are not public record. The sold figures above come from closings Resideline tracked directly.

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 604 closed sales in Boise over the last six months, with a median closing price of $524,900. That median is the midpoint of what buyers actually paid, not what sellers hoped to get, which is why it moves differently from the asking prices you see on listing sites. These are the closings Resideline tracks and may differ from complete county or municipal records. 81% of the Boise closings we track here are single-family houses, so these figures primarily reflect that segment, and the citywide $/sqft figure primarily reflects that segment as well. Across the 602 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $267 and $381 per square foot.

Figures last updated September 6, 2026 from closings Resideline tracked.

Median home price in Boise, ID (September 2026)

The median home price in Boise is $524,900, measured across the 604 closed sales Resideline tracked over the last six months.

How long a sale takes here

  • Listed to under contract: a median of 12 days, across 190 Boise closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
  • Contract to closing: a median of 29 days, across 185 Boise closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
Both are measured from the closings themselves, not from listing inventory. Each sale is timed using its own listing and contract dates. That is why these counts are smaller than the 604 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

Among the Boise closings with usable living area over the last six months, single-family houses closed at a median of $324 per square foot (488 sales), townhouses at $306 (53 sales) and condos at $387 (35 sales).

From market read to offer price

A market read is the backdrop. The decision still comes down to one property and one number: what it is actually worth and what you should pay. Every Resideline report opens with this same market snapshot for the subject's exact ZIP code, then gives you the property's value, the sold comps behind it, and a market rent estimate. Pricing a specific deal? The free ARV calculator and rental property calculator run the numbers in about a minute.

And we show our work. Every estimate is frozen while the home is for sale, so it cannot be revised once the sale price is known. Grading it is a different matter in Idaho: because sale prices are not public record here, a confirmed closing price reaches us for only a small share of Idaho homes, and most Idaho estimates stay frozen and ungraded. The accuracy scoreboard is therefore a national record rather than a Idaho one. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.

Run any Boise address through Resideline and you will see the local market and the property's value together, in one report.
