Treasure Valley Market Update: How the Market Has Shifted Over the Last Month
Treasure Valley Real Estate Market Update | How the Market Has Shifted Over the Last Month
As we move deeper into the spring market, one of the biggest trends we’re seeing across the Treasure Valley is how quickly conditions can change from month to month.
While year-over-year comparisons are still valuable, comparing today’s market to the same timeframe just one month ago can often provide a clearer picture of what buyers and sellers are experiencing right now in real time.
Here’s what has changed across Ada and Canyon Counties over the last month.

Inventory Continues to Rise
Over the last month, total active listings increased from 3,220 to 3,436 homes across Ada and Canyon Counties.
This increase in inventory means buyers are seeing more options hit the market as we move further into the busy spring season. More listings naturally create more competition among sellers and give buyers additional opportunities to be selective.
Buyer Activity Remains Strong, but Has Softened Slightly
Pending sales dipped slightly from 433 to 429, while the overall pending rate moved from 13.45% down to 12.48%.
This doesn’t necessarily signal a weak market. Instead, it reflects a more balanced market environment as inventory grows. Buyers are still active, but they’re taking a bit more time, comparing options, and becoming more selective with pricing and condition.
Home Prices Continue to Climb in Ada County
Median list prices continue trending upward overall.
• Ada County increased from $639,000 to $650,000
• Canyon County adjusted slightly from $499,900 to $488,375
This shows that pricing strength remains strongest in Ada County, while Canyon County is seeing a little more adjustment and flexibility as inventory expands.

Cancelled Listings Have Stayed Relatively Stable
Cancelled listings improved slightly, moving from 84 down to 83.
This suggests sellers are still finding success when homes are priced appropriately and marketed well, even as buyers become more selective.
What This Means for Buyers
Buyers are entering a market with more choices and slightly less urgency than we saw earlier this spring. However, well-priced homes are still moving quickly, especially in desirable areas.
Preparation and strategy remain key.
What This Means for Sellers
Sellers are still in a strong position overall, but today’s market rewards homes that are priced correctly from the start and presented well online and in person.
As inventory grows, buyers have more opportunities to compare homes side by side, making first impressions more important than ever.
Final Thoughts
The Treasure Valley market continues to show healthy activity and steady momentum. Month-over-month comparisons are helping paint a clearer picture of how the market is actively shifting in real time, especially during a fast-moving spring season.
As we continue into summer, we expect inventory, buyer activity, and competition to remain strong across the Boise area and surrounding Treasure Valley communities.
