The Links

On the right side, I have placed some very useful links. Let's go through them. Firstly, we have the statistics page at our iMLS website. There is some useful information here, mostly comparing 2006 to 2005. It also breaks out the different areas and new construction vs. resale. It it a good source of information but it does not serve as a snapshot of what is happening now. For that, you need an agent.

The next link we have is to the Ada County Assessor online property information system. A lot of you have probably already seen this. It's a good place to see various detail about a property and a photo of the front side of the home. You can see current tax information about a parcel and even get an aerial shot of the neighborhood. All in all, it is an agent's good friend. I only wish Canyon County would get on board.

Next up, is a link to this area's MLS search. Go right ahead and knock yourself out. In fact you should probably bookmark this one.

This one is the same as the last, except it is for Mountain Central. Think McCall, Donnelly, Cascade, New Meadows, and some surrounding areas.

Lastly, here is the eAppraisal. This one is from Ditech.com and it is basic next to what zillow.com is doing, except this one 'works' in Idaho. I say that because the accuracy here is not always accurate. It's more of a fun toy, and you should probably think of it that way. Value is a delicate thing and it should probably be figured out by a human rather than a few lines of code.
