Twin Falls Real Estate Market Update: October 2024

Buying, Market Update, Relocating, Selling, Twin Falls / November 18, 2024

This October, a balance of increasing inventory and strong demand describes the Twin Falls real estate market. This dynamic environment influences prices, sales activity, and buyer and seller expectations across existing and newly constructed homes. Below is a closer look at the data and what it means if you’re considering entering or already in the market.

What You Need to Know About the Twin Falls County Market:

Number of Residential Sales
Months of Inventory (MOI)
New Listings
Average Sales Price
Days on Market

Number of Residential Sales

•Total single-family homes sold: 103, a notable 15.7% increase from October 2023’s 89 sales.

•Existing homes sold: 91, an increase of about 23% from the previous year’s 74 sales.

•Newly constructed homes sold: 12, reflecting a 20% decrease from October 2023’s 15 sales.

This rise in existing home sales points to a strong preference for established neighborhoods, possibly driven by price sensitivity as average prices continue to rise. New construction, meanwhile, saw a decrease, suggesting that higher costs in construction and materials may be making newly built homes less attractive to budget-conscious buyers. Buyers may see greater affordability in existing homes, while sellers can leverage the demand for resale properties.

Steal This!

Months of Inventory (MOI)

•Current MOI: 3.61, a slight decrease of 4.7% from the previous month and 2.4% lower than October 2023.

The current MOI of 3.61 months indicates that if no new homes were listed, it would take just over 3.5 months to sell through the current inventory at the existing sales pace. While a balanced market typically has around 4-6 months of inventory, this slightly lower MOI still reflects a seller-favorable environment, though with increasing options for home buyers.

The minor decrease from last month suggests that demand remains strong, but inventory is gradually catching up. This leveling out can benefit buyers by providing more choices- while sellers still enjoy a competitive market. If inventory continues to grow in the coming months, we might see a shift toward a more balanced market.

New Listings

•Total active residential listings: 385, up from 348 in October 2023, indicating increased seller activity.

•Newly constructed listings: 91, a slight increase from 90 listings last year.

•Existing home listings: 294, growing from 258 in October 2023.

The boost in new listings suggests that sellers are confident in market stability, leading them to list their properties. This trend benefits buyers by providing them with more options while balancing out the market dynamics slightly. If the trend of increasing new listings continues, it may gradually create more equilibrium between supply and demand.

Average Sales Price

•Overall average sales price: $465,743, a 14% year-over-year increase, reflecting steady appreciation.

•Existing homes average price: $457,563, up nearly 20% from last year’s $382,094.

•Newly constructed homes average price: $527,773, a slight decrease of 2.1% from last October’s $539,027.

This continued rise in the price of existing homes highlights a persistent demand for established neighborhoods and properties. The high average price of newly constructed homes, though slightly down, may suggest that developers are adjusting prices to remain competitive in light of buyer preferences for more affordable options. As existing home prices rise, sellers may find themselves in a strong negotiating position, while buyers could face higher price tags, especially for move-in-ready properties in desirable locations.

Days on Market

•Average days on market for all homes: 51, down from last year’s 64 days, signaling a market that’s moving quickly.

•Existing homes DOM: 50 days, down slightly from 54 days the previous year.

•New construction DOM: 53 days, a significant reduction from 95 days last October.

Homes in Twin Falls are selling faster than in previous years, which is an indicator of strong demand and buyer urgency. A shorter DOM in new constructions suggests that builders may have found the sweet spot in pricing, making new homes more attractive despite rising interest rates. For both buyers and sellers, this fast-paced market emphasizes the importance of being well-prepared and ready to act, as properties do not stay on the market long when properly priced.

Key Takeaways

For Sellers: Rising prices and low DOM create an ideal environment for those looking to sell. Properties are moving quickly, and competitive pricing can result in multiple offers, particularly in high-demand neighborhoods.

For Buyers: While inventory is improving, higher average prices and a quick-moving market mean that pre-approval and readiness to make swift decisions are crucial. Buyers may need to consider expanding their search criteria or exploring emerging neighborhoods where prices are more affordable.

For Investors: With a balanced mix of inventory growth and price appreciation, Twin Falls offers attractive long-term potential. Current trends suggest resilience, making it an opportune time for strategic investment in both existing properties and select new builds.

Twin Falls Real Estate Snapshot: Rising Inventory and Shifting Prices – August 2024 Market Trends

Buying, Market Update, Relocating, Selling, Twin Falls / September 24, 2024

Here is your Twin Falls Real Estate snapshot for August! The Twin Falls real estate market remains active, with steady movement throughout the area. Recently, the Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 50 basis points, and while mortgage rates have initially reacted slightly negatively, the long-term outlook remains positive. Over the past 18 months, we’ve seen a general decline in rates in anticipation of this decision, and we expect rates to continue to trend downward in the months ahead. Whether buying, selling, or simply watching the market, staying informed is key. Read on to explore what unfolded in the Twin Falls real estate market in August.

What You Need to Know About the Twin Falls County Market:

Number of Residential Sales
Months of Inventory (MOI)
New Listings
Average Sales Price
Days on Market

Number of Residential Sales

In August 2024, Twin Falls saw a slight decline in residential sales, with 97 single-family homes sold, down 4.9% from 102 homes sold in August 2023. Existing homes accounted for 79 of these sales, while newly constructed homes contributed 18. Overall, year-to-date sales reached 815, marking a 6.12% increase compared to the same period last year.

Steal This!

Months of Inventory (MOI)

In August 2024, total active residential listings rose to 407, up from 336 in August 2023, signaling an increase in inventory and offering buyers more options. Twin Falls County now has 3.96 months of inventory, marking the most balanced real estate market the area has experienced in the past five years. Typically, a balanced market is considered to have 4-6 months of inventory, creating an even playing field for both buyers and sellers.

New Listings

In August, Twin Falls County saw 178 new listings, closely matching the 183 from the previous month. As we move closer to the holiday season, we can likely expect the number of new listings to start decreasing, a typical trend during this time of year.

Average Sales Price

Home prices in Twin Falls County have continued to grow steadily, with the average price of a home reaching $405,093 year-to-date, reflecting a 3.66% increase. This is a return to more typical annual price growth, contrasting with the double-digit appreciation of recent years. Interestingly, while overall prices rise, new construction homes in the county are seeing a price decrease of 3.68%, with the average price now at $456,014. This drop is partly driven by the increased availability of entry-level construction to meet demand.

Days on Market

The days on market in Twin Falls County have remained relatively stable, with an average of 65 days, down just 2 days from last year. The median time homes spent on the market is lower at 35 days. As we approach the holiday season, it’s expected these numbers will increase slightly. However, the recent rate cut could potentially keep the fall and winter market busier than usual, making it an interesting time to watch.

The market in Twin Falls remains active but shows signs of a slowdown in sales and slight price adjustments. With more homes on the market, buyers may have more negotiating power as inventory continues to grow. If you’ve been thinking about making a move, but are unsure where to start, let’s connect today!

Keep reading to learn everything from the number of homes sold to market predictions, giving you a clear picture of what’s happening. Let’s dive in and see what the numbers reveal about our market!

What You Need to Know About the Twin Falls County Market:

Number of Residential Sales
Months of Inventory (MOI)
New Listings
Average Sales Price
Days on Market

Number of Residential Sales

In June 2024, Twin Falls County saw a total of 112 single-family homes sold, a slight decrease from the 121 homes sold in June 2023. This represents a year-over-year decline of 7.44%. Breaking it down further, 90 existing homes were sold, compared to 106 in June 2023, marking a significant decrease of 15.09%. Conversely, newly constructed home sales increased by 46.67%, with 22 homes sold compared to 15 in the same month last year.

Steal This!

Months of Inventory (MOI)

The months of inventory, a crucial indicator of market balance, reflects how long it would take to sell all current listings at the current sales pace. For June 2024, the total active residential listings stood at 339, up from 294 in June 2023. With the slower sales pace and increased listings, the MOI has slightly increased, indicating a shift towards a balanced market.

New Listings

In June 2024, there were 339 new residential listings in Twin Falls County, compared to 294 in June 2023. This increase in new listings, along with a decrease in sales, is providing people moving near Twin Falls with more options and potentially greater negotiating power than they’ve seen in the last few years.

Average Sales Price

The average sales price for single-family homes in Twin Falls County saw a slight increase. For June 2024, the average price was $400,439, a modest rise from $383,202 in June 2023, reflecting a year-over-year increase of 4.5%. For existing homes, the average price increased by 3.28%, from $386,423 to $398,138. Newly constructed homes experienced a slight decrease in average price, down 2.27% year-over-year. However, this is likely because of a lot of new construction availble this year that is more budget friendly.

Days on Market

The average days on market (DOM) for homes in Twin Falls County varied between existing and newly constructed homes. Overall, homes sold in June 2024 had an average DOM of 49 days, compared to 67 days in June 2023, indicating quicker sales. Specifically, existing homes had an average DOM of 38 days, a reduction from 57 days the previous year. Newly constructed homes, however, took longer to sell, with an average DOM of 96 days compared to 111 days in June 2023.

The real estate market in Twin Falls County is showing signs of transitioning towards a more balanced market, with an increase in inventory and new listings, coupled with a slight decrease in the number of homes sold. Despite this, average sales prices remain relatively stable, and the days on market have decreased for existing homes, indicating that well-priced properties still attract quick interest. For moving near Twin Falls, understanding these market dynamics will be crucial in making informed decisions.

Stay tuned for further updates and detailed analyses as I continue to monitor the trends in the Twin Falls real estate market.

Buhl, Buying, Filer, Kimberly, Market Update, Relocating, Selling, Twin Falls / June 17, 2024

Do you live in Twin Falls or are interested in relocating here? Here is what happened in the Twin Falls housing market in May: Home sales surged throughout Twin Falls and the surrounding Magic Valley. With school out and summer almost officially here, the peak of the buying and selling season has arrived.

Stay tuned to gain valuable insights that will help you develop a strategy for your moving goals and understand how the current market could affect you, whether you’re considering buying or selling in 2024.

What You Need to Know About the Twin Falls Housing Market:

Number of Residential Sales

New Listings
Average Sales Price
Days on Market

Number of Residential Sales

Home sales skyrocketed in May with 120 homes sold in Twin Falls County. This number is up 23.71% from May 2023 and has helped balance out the overall number of sales year-to-date (YTD), bringing it to about even with last year. Despite national news reporting a dramatic decline in home sale numbers, here in Twin Falls County, we are down only about 1.53% in total sales so far, with a total of 452 homes sold YTD. Only time can continue to tell where we’ll be by the end of the year, but this is a good sign for our local market.

Steal This!

Months of Inventory (MOI)

With the influx of sales, we observed a slight increase in the Months of Inventory (MOI). We are still in a seller’s market, with approximately 3.37 months of inventory. The MOI is a reliable indicator of market health and trends. We have consistently seen the MOI remain below 4 months, often closer to around 3 months. This consistently shows that we don’t have enough inventory to meet demand, favoring sellers in the market.

New Listings

May was a significant month for new listings, with 207 new homes hitting the market in Twin Falls County. If you’re a buyer disappointed by the lack of available options, this might be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for. New listings in May increased by 48% from April 2024. Even better news for buyers: rates are nearly the lowest they’ve been in 30 days, and even begin with a 6. The Federal Reserve is meeting this month, and we can expect to learn more about where rates will head for the rest of the year.

Average Sales Price

The average sales price year-to-date in May was $399,521, reflecting a 5.75% increase from May 2023 when the average sales price in Twin Falls County was $377,812.

Home prices vary significantly depending on which of the eight towns you live in. Generally, the further you are from the city of Twin Falls, the more affordable the home prices. For example, the average cost of a home sold in Buhl or Castleford in May was $314,967. The most expensive area to purchase in Twin Falls County is the Kimberly, Hansen, and Murtaugh area, with an average sales price in May of $496,872. This higher price is largely due to the vast amount of new construction in the area.

Days on Market

In May, the average days on the market (DOM) was 59, while the year-to-date average was 72. However, the median DOM for Twin Falls County in May was just 31 days.

Homes that are properly priced and marketed continue to sell quickly. While the market isn’t as fast-paced as it was during the pandemic, it remains highly competitive.

Please remember that this is general information and should be taken with a grain of salt. As always, I’m here to answer your questions. Feel free to reach out any time—I’d be happy to discuss your real estate goals and explore how we can achieve them together.

Twin Falls County Real Estate Market Update: April 2024

Buhl, Community, Filer, Kimberly, Market Update, Relocating, Selling, Twin Falls / May 13, 2024

Are you a homeowner in Twin Falls County- or interested in becoming one? Here is the information you’ll need about what happened in the real estate market in April 2024. Competition and prices are on the increase, and days on the market are on the decrease. Don’t miss out on learning more about reducing the cost of your mortgage or getting a lower rate, make sure you read until the end!

What You Need to Know About the Twin Falls County Market:

Number of Residential Sales
Months of Inventory (MOI)
New Listings
Average Sales Price
Days on Market

Number of Residential Sales

April continued the trend of the downward number of sales in Twin Falls County this year. For April, there were a total of 92 single-family homes sold in Twin Falls County, down 12.38% from April last year, which had 105 homes sold. Year-to-date (YTD) sales are down 8.29% from 2023.

Interest rates continue to increase as inflation remains elevated. Because of the higher rates and high property values, a lot of the people in today’s market are people who have to move or first-timers. Despite the number of residential sales being down, property values are continuing to rise- I’ll get more into that later.

Steal This!

Months of Inventory (MOI)

Twin Falls County is currently experiencing a seller’s market, with only 2.9 months’ worth of inventory available. The months of inventory refer to the amount of time it would take for all the homes on the market to be absorbed, assuming no new homes were listed. Although some seller compensations are being offered at certain price points in the area, many homes are still receiving multiple offers, particularly those that fall within the $200,000-$400,000 price range.

New Listings

In April, Twin Falls County had 139 new listings on the market, of which 58 have sold or gone pending. Homes that are well-maintained, located in a good area, and priced appropriately are selling quickly. If you’re planning on selling your home this spring or summer, it’s crucial to take the time to prepare your home properly and partner with someone who has a great marketing plan. In today’s market, this will often result in a quick sale.

If you are planning to purchase a property, it is crucial to plan for a successful experience. Before beginning your home shopping, take the time to compare lenders. With current interest rates, it is essential to review the different programs that lenders are offering and compare their fee structures. This will help you make an informed decision when selecting a lender and ensure that you get the best possible deal. I have seen lenders recently offering credits for their fees, rate relief programs, and more. I’m happy to provide you with these lenders’ information.

Also, if you can get your loan underwritten upfront, this will help your offer stand out when you’re ready. Of the 92 homes sold in April, 22 were cash deals. Having your loan underwritten upfront will help you be as competitive as possible.

Average Sales Price

The average sales price YTD in April was $396, 464. This number is up 7.54% from April 2023 when the average sales price in Twin Falls County was $360,341. Property values continue to increase month after month in the Magic Valley.

Days on Market

The average days on the market (DOM) in April was 56, while year-to-date was 77. However, if you look at the 92 homes sold in April, 49 of which were between $200,000-$400,000. The average days on the market for these homes was 40, while the median was just 11. The market is moving quick- especially for homes under $400,000.

As always, this market update is an general overview of things going on. Everybody has their own situation, and I am happy to take the time to learn more about your real estate goals and show you how I can help make them happen. You can set up a no-pressure phone call here.
