Foreclosures are a part of every market these days, but 2009 ravaged the Boise Idaho real estate market so savagely that just fewer than 1 in 20 homes were foreclosed upon. The fact that Boise has had a year over year increase in foreclosures of 103%, besting the previous record of 2008, putting Boise atop the nations list of highest foreclosure rates. Finding your city among the top 24 most troubled real estate markets in the nation has too many homeowners reviewing the limited options that are out there. Given that the unemployment rate in the region is a constant 10.1%, and there is no scheduled company moving in, it may take a while to turn this market around.
