Hey everyone, today I am excited to talk to you about home warranties. People are always asking us questions about this topic, so today we want to clear the air.

A home warranty is from a 3rd-party company that will cover different components of your house for the first few years you own it. It's very similar to the coverage on an insurance policy, but the deductible is a little lower and the claim response is a little faster.

We recommend home warranties for all of our buyers and sellers. For sellers, you can buy a home warranty and advertise it as an incentive to buyers. If you use one of our home warranty companies, your coverage starts on the day you list your home with us, and transfers over to the buyer, who will have it for a full year. We think this is a great option for sellers, especially if something goes wrong. In that case, you don't have to deal with the hassle of renegotiating repairs, you can simply give the home warranty company a call, and they will have someone come out and fix it for a low cost.

Generally, a home warranty is around $400, but you can add different components to give you more coverage. If you have any specific questions about this, or any real estate questions at all, give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to speaking with you!

Hey everyone, today I wanted to talk to you a little bit about the state of the real estate market here in East Idaho.

Much like last month, we are still in seller's market. It's not dramatically in favor of sellers, but our inventory is continuing to creep down, and now sits at 4.3 months.

As of yesterday morning, we had 603 homes on the market, but sales are increasing enough to make up for the influx of inventory. This is having an effect on home prices, which are starting to rise a little bit. If you've been living here for the last 7-10 years, you have seen many months of declining or stable prices. We have seen them rise greatly in the last 6 months, however.

Of course, interest rates have the potential to slow down those prices, but they are still favorable right now for buyers in the market.

If you have any questions about our market or if you're interested in buying or selling, give us a call or send us an email. We would love to speak with you!

What our happy Idaho Falls clients have to say

"We have recently had the pleasure of working with Shawn to sell our home. We were very impressed with Shawn from the first meeting. When he told us about his team and their team approach to selling homes, it just felt so right. They were all awesome -- very knowledgeable, professional, friendly and very responsive to all of our needs.

We were living out of State while the house was on the market and were very impressed that when the appraiser required a pressure extension be put on the water heater, Shawn went shopping for the parts and installed them himself. We definitely saw that as above and beyond the call of duty.

We were very happy with Shawn's performance as a Real Estate Professional and would definitely recommend him to others."

"I would highly recommend using the Anderson Group. After our initial meeting with Shawn, my wife and I were both impressed and chose Shawn over the other realtors we had met with earlier that day. As a result, we sold our house in less than a week for pretty near what we were asking for it. Shawn and his group made the entire process painless. Aside from keeping the house clean and the lawn mowed, there was very little work on my part. Shawn is very friendly and kknowledgeable. The bottom line, my house sold in less than a week for a price near what I was asking for it. I highly recommend using him and his group."
