...thinking of relocating or investing in the Boise, Idaho area? Well, you have come to the right spot. We both grew up in Southern California and relocated to the Boise area in 1992. We love Boise and would not consider living anywhere else. In fact, moving to Boise was the best thing that we ever did.
That said, there is an adjustment period. Some things here are different than in California. We would be happy to assist you in setting realistic expectations for housing, employment, travel, recreation, social activities, kid activities and life in Idaho in general. You may have heard the saying “You don’t know what you don’t know” - let us help you get in the know!
If you are looking for investment property we also own rental property ourselves. We have represented many absentee owners over the years. There really is no “national” real estate market – everything is local and down to the individual neighborhood level. We know the neighborhoods in and around Boise. Cash flow, turnover, tenant laws and expenses are all different from California. Give us call.
Just this week we had a client experience a problem with his loan that will cost him over $1,000 up front and a additional thousands over the life of the loan. The really sad part is that the whole situation was completely preventable. Basically what happened is the lender failed to secure the loan they said they had. Because this loan program had limited availability (time sensitive) the program essentially disappeared and as a result our client had to pay additional fees to secure another loan. We know that this is a people business and people make mistakes and this was clearly the case in this situation. The problem is that we had referred this client to several other lenders who we have strong and lengthy relationships with. Now, is it possible that the lender we referred could have made the same mistake? The answer is yes - they certainly could have. The issue is that if the same mistake had happened with our referral that lender would have been in a position to make amends or other compensation to not only right a wrong but they have a vested interest in keeping our business.
Think of it this way. If you are are obtaining a loan or any other kind of service from just someone out of the phone book who "seem" to have the better deal. It is likely that they operate on a purely transactional basis as opposed to a relational one. Said another way they are looking at this one transaction only and not the multitude of transactions you might do with them over the years nor the multiple transaction we refer to them every month. So if our business partners fail to keep you happy they are potentially loosing a large share of their business.
It is important to note that not just anyone can be a referral partner with us. They must have…
Since our business depends on you and your your referrals, we give those people our highest level of service. Without you we have no business.
