Auroras Light Up North Idaho: October 8, 2024On the night of October 8, 2024, residents of North Idaho were treated to a brief display of natural beauty as the auroras danced across the night sky. This spectacular phenomenon captivated onlookers with vibrant colors and swirling patterns that illuminated the dark landscape, creating a scene that will be remembered for years to come.What Causes the Auroras?Auroras, commonly referred to as the Northern Lights in the northern hemisphere, are caused by solar winds colliding with the Earth’s magnetic field. During periods of high solar activity, charged particles from the sun interact with gases in the Earth’s atmosphere, resulting in a stunning light show. These interactions produce vivid colors—greens, pinks, purples, and reds—that can stre... 10/08/2024

Need a house now but higher interest rates got you down?  Maybe a 2/1 buydown credit from the seller can help you.  A 2-1 buydown is a type of financing that lowers the interest rate on a mortgage for the first two years before it rises to the regular, permanent rate. The rate is typically two percentage points lower during the first year and one percentage point lower in the second year.How do I get the 2/1 buydown.  When its time to write an offer on a house, your agent will ask the seller to provide a credit out of the proceeds towards your buydown.  This money is held in an escrow account and prepays a portion of your payment each month for the first two years giving you time to refinance when rates are lower.  Save over $700 a month your first year on 246 Holmes Rd Bonners Ferry ID... 03/25/2023

It finally sold!  This lot was with a fellow agent for several years before I got it and it is officially the longest listing I ever had.  While it had all the makings for a great homesite it was in an area that just wasn't having any new construction.  This was just one of those properties that needed that special person to fall in love with it. Each and every time the listing was expiring, I was just sure my seller would drop me and each time he would say he knew how hard I was working on it and he hoped this would be the year.  This wonderfully loyal client stuck it out through thick and thin and finally sold this lot.Water, gas, phone, and electric to the property line.

Bonners Ferry Bannana Belt with 16 hours of sunlight during summer months.I often hear from people that Bonners Ferry Idaho is so far north and close to Canada that it must be hard to grow things. What a treat to know that Bonners Ferry is a Bananna belt. No we don't grow bananas or oranges here but just about everything else. Bonners Ferry actually has a surprisingly "long" growing season with a zone 4 rating and an average of 128 frost-free days, due to its relatively low elevation of 1,790 feet. Boundary county is bisected by the Kootenai River, a major tributary of the Columbia River. The river’s course lies between two great mountain ranges creating this agricultural rich valley growing such diverse crops as hops, wheat, canola , potatoes, fruits, berries, flowers and nursery trees... 06/17/2016
