Market Trends & Recommendations
For Sellers
With longer days on market across Kootenai County, proper pricing and presentation are crucial. Focus on repairs, staging, and professional photography to stand out in a less frenzied market. Consider pre-listing inspections to identify and address issues before buyers discover them.
For Buyers
Take advantage of more inventory and less competition. This is an excellent time for negotiation on price and terms. Focus on value-oriented neighborhoods like Rathdrum and Post Falls where prices offer more square footage and amenities for your investment.
Market Forecast
Expect continued price stabilization through 2025 with moderate growth in high-demand areas. Interest rates will remain a key factor influencing buyer activity. The luxury market above $800K may see extended selling timelines as that segment becomes increasingly price-sensitive.
