2019 Ada County Property Tax Assessments

June 24, 2019

The 2019 Ada County Property Tax Assessments Have Arrived.

Unsurprisingly, they indicate a substantial rise in assessed property values for most property owners.

Here’s More Information About Property Tax Assessments

Ada County homeowners can expect their tax bills to increase when local taxing districts apply their levies to the new, higher assessed values.

It’s important to understand that the assessor’s office does not determine the amount of your property taxes.

Ada County property tax assessments are used by the various taxing agencies to determine the amount of property taxes.

Higher Property Values

Over the past year, the overall Ada County median sales price for a single-family home, on lot or acreage, increased 13.1%.

Some areas of Ada County rose more or less than the countywide number.

Our hot real estate market, with strong demand vs. minimal listing inventory, fueled those rising property values.

The Appeals Process

Homeowners who are unhappy with their new assessed value can file an appeal with the Ada County Board of Equalization.

If you decide to appeal your assessed value, be prepared to provide proof that the assessor erred in determining your new assessed value.

If the assessor used incorrect data for major assessment criteria, such as land size, bedrooms, baths, square footage, comparable sales, or other significant criteria, you might have a chance of getting an adjustment.

The assessor’s office will not agree to a lower assessed value just because you don’t like their value.

Eagle Idaho New Homes

June 16, 2019

Eagle Idaho New Homes Are Preferred by Many Relocating Buyers!

Eagle Idaho offers that upscale country feeling without the isolation of being out in the middle of nowhere!

Quaint downtown Eagle remains much the same as it was twenty years ago with its old buildings and tree-lined streets.

For many newcomers, it’s like stepping back in time.

Many of my buyers opt for new Eagle ID homes to achieve that elusive country setting without being surrounded by commercial development.

Some of Eagle’s best developments are just minutes away from excellent shopping and dining while providing the peace and quiet of a country location.

Most of our new home builders offer a selection of desirable semi-custom spec homes while avoiding the pure custom home market that requires extensive client interaction with design and selections decisions.

Some higher-end builders still offer design/build homes, but those builders are the exception in today’s Eagle Idaho home market.

You can expect to find new homes built by Eagle home builders who pre-select desirable options, colors, and options.

That business model allows builders to utilize construction management systems with precise scheduling and cost controls before starting construction.

While that may sound restrictive to some buyers, most of our builders have a keen sense of what today’s buyers want and build homes that are desirable to most buyers.

That’s proven by the fact that few homes reach completion without selling during construction.

The sweet spot, for many buyers, is to find a builder they like and determine what that builder has under construction.

Buying a new home during construction allows time for the buyers to sell their present home, arrange financing, and prepare for a smooth move when the home is completed.

I live in Eagle and specialize in new Eagle Idaho homes.

I know the developers, builders, and developments and can help you find your ideal new home.

Give me a call at (208)938-5533, or e-mail me, and let’s talk about how I can help you find the perfect new Eagle Idaho home!
