But keep in mind, they are extremely 'popular' and have plenty of other 'offers' (::cough:: bribes).

I guess I don't really have a choice but to keep my fingers crossed and hope nothing happens that wouldn't be covered while I only have one or two tenants.I am going to make a few phone calls today to see if I get the same response from other agents.  

Add to that it is one of a few conservative counties in the state with a solid financial foundation, and you'll understand why it's so popular.

I'm always careful w/1031s, those deadlines come up fast and the temptation is to take a second choice deal because the first isn't going well.

However if the choice is equity build up or cash reserve build up, cash reserves win every time. 

What I particularly love about having properties in Boise is that residents by and large love to be here, and many have arrived here strictly for a lifestyle choice. 

@Lakeisha Black the #s might work but if I have a choice then I'm always going with 3 or 4 bedroom homes because you increase the size of potential tenants who will rent from you.

You have a couple choices one would be the air test if your lender will accept it.

Each unit can only be considered one bedroom, which are not popular for middle class in the area.  

What determines the success or failure of your choice is luck, your level of understanding, and your passion for it.If real estate is a goal simply to diversify, it doesn't have to be a primary business for you.
