As we move into the heart of the summer market, the Treasure Valley continues to tell two slightly different but equally compelling stories.

In Ada County, we're seeing many of the seasonal trends we'd expect: inventory has grown since the beginning of the year, giving buyers more options, while homes are selling more quickly and median sales prices have continued to climb. One of the most interesting trends is in new construction, where available inventory has declined year over year, yet sales have increased—evidence that buyers remain highly interested in newly built homes despite having fewer choices.

Meanwhile, Canyon County continues to demonstrate the stability that has characterized the market over the past year. Inventory remains below last year's levels, sales activity has increased modestly, and both pricing and days on market have remained relatively unchanged.

The common thread across both counties? Buyer demand remains healthy, and the Treasure Valley market continues to show resilience as we head into the summer season.
