Boise Airport (BOI) Ranked #2 Most Relaxing

Boise Idaho Airport (BOI) named the second-most relaxing U.S. airport.

Boise Airport

The Travel Channel ranking was based upon the ease of getting through security, parking, food, drinks, cocktails, artwork, and other criteria.

It’s also interesting to note that BOI had the lowest number of flight delays and cancellations during the December 2018 holiday travel time.

If you’ve flown to or from the Boise ID airport, you know how smoothly everything operates while serving four million passengers a year.

Friendly Airport Security

Getting through the Boise Airport security is usually easy with just a few people in line ahead of you.

If you fly in/out of BOI regularly, you already appreciate our friendly TSA employees (no attitudes) who provide a good experience while going through security.

Some of my clients who fly frequently have even commented that they’ve gotten to know the airport’s security personnel on a first name basis.

Convenient Parking

Parking at the airport is convenient (and inexpensive!) with the parking garage located just a few steps from the terminal.

Unlike some other, larger airports with remote locations, the Boise ID Airport is located just minutes from downtown Boise, Meridian, Eagle, and other nearby destinations.

Dining

BOI also offers a number of outstanding options for dining, including Bardenay, 13thStreet Pub & Grill, Parilla Grill, Einstein Bros. Bagels, Smashburger, River City Coffee & Café, Cross Grain Brewhouse, and other eateries.

Airlines Serving BOI

  • Alaska Airlines
  • Allegiant Airlines
  • Delta Air Lines
  • Frontier Airlines
  • Southwest Airlines
  • United Airlines
  • Private air charter service is available from Gem Air and McCall Aviation.

The False Promise of “We Buy Houses!”

Have you seen those “We Buy Houses” signs on utility poles?

We Buy Houses

They’re intended to snare unwitting homeowners who think they can sell their home quickly without a Realtor®.

The people behind those signs prey on unknowledgeable homeowners who are often facing financial challenges.

If you call the number on the sign, realize that you will be dealing with someone who knows far more about real estate than you do.

Those buyers are shrewd deal-makers and your best interests are not their best interests.

Their motivation is to take advantage of your desire for a fast sale and make a huge profit in the process.

When It Sounds Too Good To Be True . . .

They’re going to deduct all ordinary sales costs as part of the deal, including commissions, closing costs, fix-up costs, and carrying costs.

Then, they’re going to build in a substantial profit for themselves.

Perhaps those signs should say “We Buy Houses At Deep Discounts”?

You may avoid paying a commission, but the cost of the commission will be deducted from the offering price.

The bottom line is that you’re essentially paying a commission while not having a skilled, experienced Realtor® representing your best interests.

If the offer is indeed legitimate, and the buyer is actually able to perform, you may end up with a closed sale, but you must be careful.

Beware Of The Fine Print

Never sign over the title to your home to anyone without using a title/escrow company and ensuring that everything is done correctly.

Above all, make sure that all encumbrances against your property are paid off at closing.

Understand that simply deeding your home over to someone else will not relieve you of your mortgage debt and other obligations.
