Boise STR market context

Boise supports a moderate STR market — workable for well-located properties, but without the demand premium of top vacation markets.

Boise is an appreciation play that ran ahead of fundamentals. Buyers today should underwrite flat year-one rents and require strong reserves.

Underwriting cautions

  • Verify STR permit availability at the parcel level before closing.
  • Apply a 75% haircut to top-quartile AirDNA comps when projecting revenue.
  • Budget 35–45% expense ratio (cleaning, supplies, management, channel fees, utilities).
  • Model a long-term-rental fallback scenario in case STR rules tighten.
