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 August 2026.

The snapshot

  • Closings tracked, last 6 months: 677
  • Median sold price, last 6 months: $525,000
  • Median sold $/sqft, last 6 months: $312
  • Middle half of sales closed between: $410,000 and $699,000

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 677 closed sales in Boise over the last six months, with a median closing price of $525,000. 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. The middle half of those sales closed between $410,000 and $699,000. That spread matters more than the headline median: where a specific property sits inside it decides whether the citywide number helps you or misleads you. These are the closings Resideline tracks and may differ from complete county or municipal records. 83% 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 675 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $266 and $375 per square foot.

Medians hide the shape of a market. The distribution above covers the closed sales Resideline tracked in Boise over the last six months, trimmed to the 5th through 95th percentile, with the middle half of sales closing between $410,000 and $699,000. Where your target property sits inside that spread matters more than the citywide median.

How long a sale takes here

  • Listed to under contract: a median of 12 days, across 195 Boise closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
  • Contract to closing: a median of 29 days, across 189 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 677 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

The Boise angle

Boise asks you to spend your filters carefully. Across 677 closings Resideline tracked over the last six months, the median closed sale price was $525,000, and the middle half of sales closed between $410,000 and $699,000, a band close to typical for the markets we track. Pick the one or two attributes that actually move price for your subject, filter on those, and accept a wider geography rather than an empty result. Note also that the closed data stretches further above the median than below it, so an upper-half subject needs its own comps rather than an adjustment off $525,000.

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 and graded against the real closing price after it sells. As of August 2026, the public scoreboard showed 3.26% median error across 11,465+ graded closings. 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.

The local market statistics in this report are calculated from closed sales tracked by Resideline. Transaction coverage may differ from complete county or municipal records.

Every local market figure on this page is computed from closed sales Resideline tracked in Boise over the last six months, and is refreshed when the data is. Boise is a community within a larger municipality rather than a separate incorporated city, so these figures cover the Boise postal area rather than a city boundary.
