Idaho Real Estate Agent Don Wixom Says Meridian Real Estate Market Has Fewest Vacancies
MERIDIAN, Ida. – Don Wixom, broker/owner of RE/MAX Advantage in Nampa, Idaho, says that Meridian market continues to maintain the lowest vacancy rates for pre-existing homes in the Treasure Valley. He says this is a testament to Meridian’s strength as a place to buy, and is due to a number of factors affecting the Idaho real estate market.
Wixom says that some of the more popular subdivisions in many price ranges are in Meridian, making Meridian more attractive to a wider set of buyers.
“Meridian subdivisions tend to be newer than those in other parts of the Treasure Valley. Schools are great, and amenities like shopping and freeway access are great as well.”
He says that the benefits Meridian has going for it mean buyers will pay a little more to live there, but property values have also been much more stable in Meridian than elsewhere.
“Meridian real estate offers a level of safety for home buyers that other areas don’t always have, simply because it’s more in demand.”
Wixom said he’s helped many out-of-state buyers purchase homes in Meridian, whether it’s someone who is relocating due to a job transfer in the Boise area, or someone fleeing a bigger state like California for a better quality of life.
“Meridian’s proximity to Boise real estate, along with its small town feel, are two of the biggest things going for the city. It definitely attracts local and out of town buyers to the area.”
“With the current market conditions, it’s not hard to find good deals, including Meridian short sales, foreclosures, and traditional home sales.”
