The Summer Market Is Here, But It Won't Last Forever
As we officially kick off July, the Treasure Valley real estate market is settling into one of its busiest and most important times of the year.
Summer is traditionally when buyers have the most homes to choose from, families work to get settled before the new school year, and sellers hope to take advantage of strong buyer activity before the market naturally begins to slow heading into fall.
This week's numbers show a market that remains healthy, balanced, and active across both Ada and Canyon County.
Let's take a closer look.
📍 Ada County Market Snapshot
Ada County saw 284 new listings come to market this week while active inventory remained above 2,100 homes. Although fewer new listings were added compared to last week, buyers continue to have a healthy selection of homes throughout the county.
One encouraging sign is that average sold prices increased by 7%, while the number of homes sold held steady.
Ada County Highlights
284 new listings (-22%)
$738,439 average listing price (+4%)
$675,367 average sold price (+7%)
2,192 active listings (-3%)
239 pending sales (no change)
272 homes sold (no change)
2.4 months of inventory (-5%)
What This Means
Inventory tightened slightly this week while prices strengthened. Buyers still have options, but desirable homes continue to attract attention when they're priced appropriately.
📍 Canyon County Market Snapshot
Canyon County remained remarkably consistent this week.
While listing activity slowed slightly, homes continued selling at a healthy pace and inventory remained stable.
Canyon County Highlights
163 new listings (-5%)
$513,093 average listing price (-4%)
$484,162 average sold price (-7%)
1,133 active listings (-2%)
120 pending sales (-10%)
161 homes sold (+15%)
2.4 months of inventory (-4%)
What This Means
Even with fewer pending sales this week, closed sales increased, showing that buyers who entered the market earlier this summer are continuing to reach the closing table.
July is One of the Best Months to Make a Move
July is often considered one of the busiest months in Idaho real estate.
Families hoping to be settles before school starts are actively searching, many sellers still have their homes on the market, and the longer summer days make scheduling showings and inspections easier.
Whether you're buying or selling, this is often one of the most active periods of the year.
What Buyers Should Know
The good news for buyers is that inventory remains healthier than it has been in recent years.
That means:
More homes to choose from
Less pressure than during the peak frenzy
More opportunities to compare neighborhoods and pricing
Time to close before the school year begins
If you've been waiting for the "right time," July continues to offer strong opportunities before late summer activity begins to shift.
What Sellers Should Know
Buyer demand is still present, but today's buyers are paying close attention to value.
Homes that are priced well, professionally marketed, and move-in ready continue to stand out.
As we move deeper into summer, presentation becomes even more important as buyers have more inventory to compare.
Looking Ahead
We'll be watching several trends over the coming weeks:
Whether inventory continues to tighten
Buyer activity after the holiday weekend
Pricing trends across Ada and Canyon County
How quickly newly listed homes are going under contract
July often provides one of the clearest pictures of what the remainder of the summer market may look like.
