Don?t Litter!
2007-12-06 21:51:00 If you do, I’ll be picking it up… We are now responsible for the clean up of State St. (Hwy 44) west of Glenwood for 2 miles.

Boise Homes Under $150,000: Yes and No
2007-12-05 20:21:00 The Idaho Statesman printed an article today about Boise homes available for sale under $150,000. Now, I think the article is pretty much junk as it is more of an ad for a couple of agents than real news. I also think it is somewhat misleading in an attempt to encourage people to ...

The Dreaded DMV
2007-11-03 17:11:00 I’ve watched stand-up comedians hundreds of times and most of them seem to have a joke about waiting in line at the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV or MVD in some states). Apparently, none of these people have had to renew a driver’s license in Idaho (well, Boise at least). I now know, ... More About: Real Estate , Real Estate Investment , Treasure Valley , City
Why Do Entrepreneurs Like Boise?
2007-10-25 20:13:00 A recent Seattle Post-Intelligencer article highlights everything we already know and love about Boise: a vibrant downtown, beautiful outdoor areas, low unemployment, reasonable home prices (well, compared to Seattle) and a lot of entrepreneurs that have made it to the national stage. According to the author, the last item is what separates Boise ... More About: Real Estate , Real Estate Investment , Treasure Valley , City , Entrepreneurs
Where Have All The Men Gone?
2007-10-20 22:14:00 The garage in my old house was nearly perfect just days before I moved out. I had lived there for about four years and spent many nights and weekends insulating, drywalling, painting and organizing my garage. The garage was so clean and fresh looking that I almost felt like removing my shoes when ... More About: Real Estate , Real Estate Investment , Treasure Valley , City
The Other Boise Zoo
2007-10-11 19:07:00 One of the reasons so many people live in the Treasure Valley is our proximity to the “great outdoors.” We have the foothills, Bogus Basin, and Lucky Peak Reservoir right out our back door, just to name a few. Along with the great scenery, we also get wildlife: deer, elk, bears, mountain lions and ... More About: Real Estate , Real Estate Investment , City , The O
Bad Neighbors in Boise? Nah?
2007-10-09 00:12:00 Would you consider yourself a good neighbor? My good neighbor status may be questionable at times (I really need to clean those gutters), but for the most part, I’d say I’m a good neighbor. At least I haven’t yet shown up on RottenNeighbor.com (yes, that is a real site; and no, I’m ... More About: Real Estate , Real Estate Investment , Treasure Valley , City , Neighbors

Idaho - Above Average
2007-08-14 21:29:00 Subprime, subprime, subprime. I’ve been trying to avoid the latest addition to the consumers’ vocabulary (subprime) that the media has been spewing constantly, but after reading an article in the Statesman today, I just had to talk about it. The article is titled “Idaho foreclosures up 21 percent.” This might lead one to believe that we ... More About: Foreclosure , Treasure Valley , Average
