MSN Money Magazine recently released a housing market study that details appreciation rates in 291 metropolitan areas across the United States.

Idaho is 4th for Fastest Growing State in West, 2007

2008-02-09T23:40:00.000-07:00

I recently found this article proclaiming Idaho as the 4th fastest growing state in the West for the year 2007! Eastern Idaho is a great place to live and buy real estate!

Fastest-Growing States in West, South

Nevada regained the title of fastest-growing state with its population increasing by 2.9 percent to 2.6 million through July 2007.

Nevada had held that title for 19 years in a row before being dethroned by Arizona last year. Arizona is the second-fastest-growing stat,e according to the current estimate, with a population increase of 2.8 percent to 6.3 million, according to the U.S. Census Bureau’s annual estimate of state population changes.

Florida saw the sharpest fall off in population growth. Florida grew 1.07 percent, only slightly faster than the U.S. growth rate of 0.96 percent and the slowest growth rate in the state since 1990, making it the 19th fastest-growing state.

The only two states in the country to lose population were Michigan and Rhode Island. Michigan lost 30,500 residents, a 0.3 percent decline.The 10 fastest-growing states in order are:

Nevada
Arizona
Utah
Idaho
Georgia
North Carolina
Texas
Colorado
Wyoming
South Carolina

Idaho Falls, Idaho Real Estate Market Still Strong!

2007-12-14T14:05:00.000-07:00

I found the following article on the Idaho Falls, Idaho Real Estate Market and wanted to share it:

Housing Markets That Are Still Thriving

The best-performing housing market in the country during the third quarter was picturesque Wenatchee, a city of more than 35,000 that is the seat of Chelan County, Wash. Prices in the Wenatchee metro area increased by 15.7 percent year over year, according to RealtyTrac.

Home prices also jumped more than 10 percent in second home markets in Utah, Idaho, and Colorado. "They're doing so well because they're getting the run-off from California, Nevada, and Arizona," says Jeannine Cataldi, senior economist for Global Insight. "When prices got so high [in those states], people said, 'there must be places that are more affordable.’”

Here are the top 10 best performing markets in the country:

Wenatchee, Wash.: 15.7 percent
Provo-Orem, Utah: 14.35 percent
Grand Junction, Colo.: 14.05 percent
Ogden-Clearfield, Utah: 13.95 percent
Salt Lake City: 13.37 percent
Idaho Falls, Idaho: 11.69 percent
Austin-Round Rock, Texas: 9.67 percent
Beaumont-Port Arthur, Texas: 9.44 percent
Asheville, N.C.: 9.44 percent
Billings, Mont.: 9.07 percent

People are what life is made of; friends are what give life meaning.
There will always be people in your life, but that doesn't mean they care about you; those who care will stand beside you with support; that will separate them from the others.

Weekend Snow Storm

2007-10-09T16:50:00.000-06:00

Hello everyone! I am going to attempt to maintain a blog on Eastern Idaho, which encompasses Idaho Falls, Blackfoot, Rexburg, Rigby, Shelley, Firth and surrounding areas!

This last weekend it snowed substantially in Idaho Falls as well as the surrounding areas. We received well over 4 inches in a short period of time. Trees throughout Eastern Idaho lost many branches from the weight of the snow on the leaves that hadn't fallen yet! Some parts of Idaho Falls even lost power for long periods of time!

Check out some news articles on the snow storm:
