Idaho's Buy-Side Real Estate Market: Q1 2026 Analysis

Idaho Market Snapshot: Q1 2026

Idaho's single-family market tightened sharply across the first quarter of 2026, with inventory declining each month as supply moved steadily toward seller-favorable territory. Active inventory opened January at 6,347 homes, declined to 5,945 in February, and reached 5,886 in March, a 7.3 percent decrease across the quarter. Months of supply tightened each month. The reading opened at 4.1 months in January, eased to 3.2 in February, and tightened to 2.6 in March. All three months sat below the 6-month balanced-market benchmark, with the quarter ending more than three months under that threshold and well inside seller-favorable territory.

Median sale prices moved within a range across the quarter. The statewide median opened January at $504,500, dipped to $475,100 in February, and recovered to $481,800 in March. Days on market declined from 79 days in January to 78 in February and 70 in March, compressing nearly 9 days over the course of the quarter.

Year-over-year context shows a market that ran distinctly tighter than the prior year throughout all three months. January 2026 inventory of 6,347 homes was 7.1 percent below January 2025, with supply running 0.6 months tighter at 4.1 months versus 4.7. By March, inventory was 19.4 percent below the prior-year reading of 7,298 homes, while months of supply landed at 2.6, fully 1.1 months below March 2025's 3.7. Days on market in March ran nine days longer than the prior year at 70 versus 61. The median price of $481,800 in March 2026 ran 1.9 percent below March 2025, reflecting modest year-over-year softening in the context of substantially tighter supply conditions.

Idaho's Top 25 Buyer's Agents and Teams: Q1 2026 Rankings

Agent Pronto/CINC has ranked Idaho's top 25 buyer's agents and teams based on total transaction volume in Q1 2026. This proprietary buy-side data reveals both high-volume operators and luxury specialists who dominate Idaho's diverse real estate market.

What the Data Shows

Idaho's top 25 concentrates in the upper-mid-market, reflecting the state's elevated price environment. Two agents and teams operate with median prices below $500,000, fourteen sit between $500,000 and $1 million, seven fall between $1 million and $3 million, and two carry medians at or above $3 million. Matt Bauscher leads the rankings with 19 closings at a $970,000 median, generating $24.9 million in total volume, the highest in the state. Jennifer Stacey ranks third with 20 closings at a $580,000 median for $12.1 million, the highest closing count in the top 25. Janna Scharf ranks fourth with 12 closings at a $706,675 median for $10.4 million, and Hayden Anderl ranks second with 12 closings at a $1,944,348 median for $19.5 million.

A different model appears among the rankings. Chris Neu ranks eleventh with two closings at a $3,436,000 median, generating $6.9 million in total volume from a fraction of the transaction count of the volume leaders. Desiree Jones ranks fourteenth with two closings at a $3,112,500 median for $6.2 million, and Jeff Doty ranks fifteenth with three closings at a $2,050,000 median for $6.2 million. Brian Rosborough, Will Rhodes, John Beutler, and Blake Swain each reach the rankings through two to five high-value closings at medians between $1.2 million and $3.0 million. These agents and teams reflect the dollar-volume ranking bias toward luxury work in an elevated-price state.

The shape of Idaho's top 25 is wide in price and compressed in closing counts. Median prices range from $414,485 to $3,436,000, and closing counts span from two to 20. Because the rankings are ordered by total sold dollar volume, agents and teams in Idaho reach the list through two paths: transaction counts of ten or more at price points in the $500,000 to $1 million range, or small numbers of transactions at price points above $1 million. Both paths are well-represented in the top 25.

Conclusion

Idaho's first quarter of 2026 saw supply tighten from 4.1 months to 2.6, inventory fall 7.3 percent, and the median sale price move within a range while ending 1.9 percent below March 2025. The quarter ran distinctly tighter than Q1 2025 in every month, with March inventory 19.4 percent below the prior year and months of supply 1.1 months tighter than March 2025. Within this environment, the top 25 buyer's agents and teams closed 207 transactions across median prices ranging from $414,485 to $3,436,000. The list spans upper-mid-market volume operators and nine luxury specialists with medians at or above $1 million.
