Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Hillcrest real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Hillcrest home values have inched down about 0.2% over the past year, a much smaller decline than Boise’s 5.2% drop. Inventory has fallen sharply year over year, down about 62.5%, and new listings are off by 30%. Pending sales have slowed even more, down about 66.7% compared with a year ago.
In February 2026, the typical home value in Hillcrest was about $440,000, with a median list price around $450,000. Homes spent a median of 33 days on the market, which is dramatically faster than a year ago, and roughly 30% of recent sales closed above the list price, supported by an average sale-to-list ratio near 0.99.
Supply stayed very tight in February, with only 3 active listings and 7 new listings matching 7 pending sales. Looking ahead to March 2026, typical values are projected to ease slightly to about $438,750, while median list price is expected to hold near $450,000 and inventory is projected to remain at 3 homes. Conditions still lean toward sellers, reflected in a seller’s market gauge of 4, but limited options and subtle pricing shifts matter for both sides. Whether comparing Hillcrest to the wider Boise market at about $473,750 or navigating current listings on one street, buyers and sellers can both benefit from Agent Pronto connecting them with a skilled local real estate agent.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Hillcrest offers residents a friendly, walkable community with tree-lined streets, accessible parks and services, and a tight-knit local scene that makes everyday life convenient and enjoyable.
Hillcrest in Boise stands out from nearby Bench neighborhoods with its classic mid century character, mature trees, and hilltop golf course setting that overlooks the city core. It offers a quieter, established feel while keeping downtown and the Boise River Greenbelt within easy reach.
Built largely in the 1950s and 60s, Hillcrest features mostly single level ranch homes on larger lots, along with a few infill projects that add choice for modern buyers. Many residents are drawn by proximity to Hillcrest Country Club, neighborhood schools like Grace Jordan Elementary and Borah High School, and everyday conveniences along Vista Avenue. Local favorites such as Guru Donuts – Vista and Hillcrest Library add to the community feel.
Outdoor access is a key part of Hillcrest’s identity. Residents can reach Ann Morrison Park and the Boise Bench bike corridors quickly, while the Depot Bench and Central Bench neighborhoods provide additional dining and services nearby.
The Hillcrest market moves steadily, and the most appealing homes can attract strong interest from across Ada County. Whether you are planning upgrades before listing or hoping to move into the area before your ideal home hits the market, timing and preparation matter.

“I would highly recommend Lynn Moore! We have brought homes before overseas but not here in the U.S. and it is a daunting and very difficult process but with Lynn she made everything feel lighter! Her professionalism, communication and availability to answer any of our questions even after hours really helped us feel at ease not only that her character as a person is warm and caring, she naturally goes above and beyond. We are so grateful to Lynn she genuinely cared about our family and our situation, she got all the things done ASAP and made things move for us!! If we ever need a realtor again we will definitely reach out to Lynn again! Thank you Lynn!!”
“Brooke was extremely knowledgeable of the area we were interested in despite us looking in both Montana and Idaho. She was able to explain and answer all our questions that we had in a timely fashion and took the time to make sure we understood every part of the process of buying a home! She was a pleasure to work with and will definitely be giving her call when we're ready to sell or buy again!”
“I sold 4 different lots over the last 5 years from out of state. Creta was an essential part of our success . We got the price we wanted and she handled all of the road blocks we encountered and all the clients requests. She is knowledgeable and professional in her dealings with others and we truly appreciate our decision to let Creta handle our listing. I wish I had more land for sale.!!”
“I’ve known Stacey for over 15 years, and she has always been someone I can trust completely. She has helped me with my home more than once, and every single time she shows up fully—prepared, organized, and ready to handle anything. Stacey is truly on top of everything. She follows through, communicates clearly, and keeps the process moving smoothly from start to finish. She’s dependable, efficient, and incredibly knowledgeable.”
“We loved working with Chantelle, her experience, knowledge and professionalism were outstanding. Chantelle helped us and communicated with us continually throughout the process. Chantelle's personal contact made the sale of our loved ones property less stressful.”
“Sydney was the listing agent of the property we were interested in viewing. We had to travel over 11 hours to get to Sandpoint and another offer had come in. Our request was to please let the sellers know that there would likely be an offer coming in, and hoped they would wait for 3 days until we could get there. She relayed that information, and the sellers waited for us. It's sometimes a very hard task to be the listing and selling agent, but Sydney has a skill set that many don't possess and her dual roll in negotiations ended up with the successful contract. Additionally, she helped us by making calls and directed us to proper agencies and professionals to have our questions answered regarding rules and regulations for building a home in the area. Excellent, excellent. Sydney is a jewel!”

“Matt and Dianna continued to work with me to get this house sold. It was a long process and I think both buyer and myself were happy in the end. To me, that is a win!”
“Debbie Taylor was a pleasure to work with. We are moving from out of state, which creates some special concerns. Debbie was always available to answer questions, calm our nerves, and advise us on situations that we had not considered. Debbie went above and beyond by face timing the property, making a floor plan to help us plan our furniture, and guiding us to a list of local professionals that also were extremely helpful, accommodating, and pleasant. She has been very welcoming. I feel like I have a new friend. I would highly recommend Debbie Taylor!”
