Real estate commissions are one of the most common questions we hear — and there’s also a lot of confusion about how they work.

The most important thing to know? **There isn’t one standard commission rate.** Real estate commissions are negotiable and can vary depending on the agent, brokerage, property, and services being provided.

And with changes in the real estate industry over the past few years, **seller and buyer-agent compensation should be discussed separately and clearly before you sign anything.**

If you're thinking about buying or selling, we're happy to walk you through the costs, what services are included, and what you can expect from start to finish.

Have a real estate question? Send us a message or give us a call at **208-409-7606**.

One of Boise’s favorite traditions is back! 🎈

The **Spirit of Boise Balloon Classic** returns **September 2–6**, bringing five mornings of colorful balloons over the Treasure Valley — plus some fun special events throughout the week.

A few highlights to know:

🎈 **Wednesday – Kid’s Day:** Free tethered balloon rides for kids, first come, first served
🎈 **Thursday – First Launch:** A great morning to catch the balloons with potentially smaller weekday crowds
✨ **Friday – Nite Glow:** Food, vendors, live music, activities and the always-popular evening balloon glow
🎈 **Saturday – Family Morning Launch:** An early start, but one of the best mornings to bring the whole family
🌅 **Sunday – Great Launch:** Dawn Patrol followed by the final morning flight

Most morning activities start around 5:30–6:45 AM, with flights typically happening around 7:20 AM.

Keep in mind that ballooning is completely weather-dependent, so be sure to check for updates before heading out.

Grab some coffee, bring the kids, and enjoy one of those events that makes Boise such a special place to call home. ❤️

**September 2–6, 2026 | Boise, Idaho**

🏡 What’s happening in the Boise real estate market this September?
The market is staying active as we head into fall. With 347 new listings and 329 homes sold, buyers are still making moves, while homes are averaging just 24 days on the market.

The average sales price is currently around $686,000, and inventory remains relatively tight — which means well-priced homes can still attract serious attention.

Thinking about selling but wondering what your home could actually sell for in today’s market? Online estimates can only tell you so much. A personalized Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) looks at recent sales, current competition, your location, and the unique features of your home to give you a much clearer picture.

Curious what your home is worth? Send us a message and we’d be happy to put together a complimentary CMA for you — no pressure, just useful information.

Looking for an excuse to head to Stanley next weekend? Here you go.

The Sawtooth Salmon Festival is happening August 27–30!

It’s one of those uniquely Idaho events that combines the Sawtooths, wildlife, community and plenty to do over the course of the weekend.

If you’ve been looking for one more summer adventure before we head into fall, a trip to Stanley sounds pretty good to us.

Anyone planning to go this year?

A home is so much more than the number of bedrooms and bathrooms.

It’s your morning coffee spot. The neighborhood you walk through after dinner. The kitchen everyone ends up gathering in. The backyard where the kids play.

When we help someone find a home, we’re not just looking at the property — we’re thinking about how they actually want to live.

Because you’re not just buying a house.

You’re choosing a lifestyle.

What if your next home could also be an investment?

6105 W. Post Street is a Boise fourplex that opens up some interesting possibilities — live in one unit and rent the others, or add the entire property to your investment portfolio.

Opportunities like this can be a great way to think beyond the traditional single-family purchase.

Want the numbers, property details or to schedule a showing?

Call Alison at 208-409-7606 or send us a message.

Boise coffee stop to add to your list: Common Ground.

We love finding local spots that have a little personality, and Common Ground definitely does.

Located on the Bench, it’s part coffee shop, part local market and a great place to grab a drink, something to eat and hang out for a while.

If you haven’t been yet, give it a try!
And tell us — what Boise coffee shop should we feature next?

Boise investors — this one deserves a look.

This fourplex at 6105 W. Post Street is offered at $689,900 and could work for an investor OR a buyer who wants to owner-occupy while generating rental income from the additional units.

Multi-unit properties can be hard to come by, especially when you’re looking for options right here in Boise.

Want the rental details or to see it in person?

Call Alison Blake at 208-409-7606 or message us here.

Thinking about buying a home, but not sure if you’re actually ready?

You don’t need to have everything perfectly figured out before you start looking.
A solid credit score, manageable debt, money set aside for a down payment and some breathing room for the unexpected are all good signs that you may be closer than you think.

And sometimes the best first step isn’t scrolling through homes — it’s simply finding out what buying would look like for you.

Have questions about buying in the Treasure Valley? Send us a message. We’re always happy to talk through it — no pressure.
