About Phil Hoover

I am a real estate broker with 38 years’ experience who specializes in Boise Area residential real estate.

I am a dedicated, full-time professional who still enjoys helping people buy and sell homes.

Over the years, I have become good friends with many of my thousands of delighted past clients.

I am also a recovering Californian, having spent 20 years in real estate while living in the Bay Area, Sacramento, and Grass Valley areas prior to moving to Idaho in 1991.

Finally, I am also the author of SELLING REAL ESTATE . . . . How To Succeed In The Real World, a popular real estate text that sold out three printings.

I also recently self-published 101 Real Estate Success Secrets ~ a concise text that explains how I provide an exceptional level of personalized service to my clients.

I am not a mass-production mega-agent with a “team” and a big ego.

Rest assured that you will not be handed off to an inexperienced, junior agent.

Instead, I work personally ( by appointment) with only a few clients at a time in order to ensure a very high level of personal service and expertise.

Think of me as your personal real estate consultant who’s here to educate, advise, and help you ~ not a pushy salesperson intent upon “closing the deal”.

My business model is simple:

  • I show up (on time).
  • I tell the truth.
  • I allow my clients to make informed decisions without the usual sales persuasion.

My promise to you, should we decide to work together, is that I will present all aspects of your proposed transaction to you, even if it is to my detriment.

I am not a real estate cheerleader; I deal in facts.

Through this blog, I hope to educate and inform you about the inner workings of real estate and local market conditions.
