FALLING FOR YOUR NEW HOME: Navigating North Idaho's Autumn Real Estate Market

October 2, 2024

Autumn has arrived!

As we transition from the hot busy days of summer into the cool embrace of fall, the North Idaho real estate market remains as active as ever. This past summer was a whirlwind, with buyers eager to secure their dream homes in our beautiful hometown, and motivated sellers placing their homes on the market. And the good news? The momentum hasn’t slowed down yet!


At our office, we've been busier than ever, helping clients navigate the market in Boundary County and the rest of North Idaho.


Why Move Now? Winter is Coming!

With winter just around the corner, now is a great time to make your move. Whether you’re buying or selling, acting before the snow starts to fall gives you a distinct advantage. Winter tends to slow things down, making fall the perfect time to finalize deals and get settled before the holidays. Moving before the cold weather also makes the process smoother and more efficient.


For you sellers out there, listing now means you’ll capture the attention of serious buyers who are eager to close before the winter months. Buyers, on the other hand, can find great options in the current inventory, but keep in mind that competition is still strong. Some sellers with listings that have been on the market for a while may be more willing to negotiate so that they can sell before the winter.


At Century 21 Four Seasons Realty, we’re here to guide you every step of the way. If you’re thinking about making a move, now is the time to act. Let’s get you to your next home before the snow starts to fly!


The Idaho Fall Lifestyle: Outdoor Adventures & Community Spirit

Fall in North Idaho is truly something special. The mountains come alive with the golden tamarack trees, crisp air, and stunning sunsets; its one of the most beautiful times to get outside! Hiking trails in the Selkirk Mountains and along the Kootenai River are at their best this time of year, ideal for day hikes, wildlife spotting, and soaking in the breathtaking views. Fall in North Idaho also means hunting season! Hunting is a huge part of Idaho culture, when locals enjoy the outdoors and the excitement of the hunt. We have a variety of wildlife and game animals, such as deer, elk, bear, mountain lions, wolves and more! Stay safe and good luck!


Fall is also a time when our community comes together. Local events like harvest festivals, farmers markets, and craft fairs pop up throughout Boundary County. The Bonners Ferry Farmers Market, for instance, is a must-visit for seasonal produce and handmade goods that highlight the best of local living. And with the holidays fast approaching, the community puts on several fun events for the whole family to enjoy, such as the Thanksgiving Turkey Trot!


If you’re dreaming of a home where you can enjoy the best of Idaho’s fall lifestyle—whether it’s cozying up by the wood stove or exploring the great outdoors—there’s no better time to start your real estate journey.
