Posted in Long & Foster and Living by Suzanne Whitenight Pilcher


It’s February – winter’s not over yet, but spring is right around the corner. If you have cabin fever from being inside, cleaning and freshening up your house can help you get through this last month of winter and be ready to get outside when spring arrives. Once you check these items off your to-do list, you’ll be able to relax by the fire with a good book and enjoy the last few weeks of winter.

Central Washington Real Estate Market Update

Thumb_17450_cenwa_gardnerreportq4_masthead

Posted in Central Washington Real Estate Market Update by Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist, Windermere Real Estate


The Washington State economy added 104,600 new jobs over the past 12 months. This impressive growth rate of 3.1% is well above the national rate of 1.4%. Interestingly, the slowdown we experienced through most of the second half of the year reversed in the fall, and we actually saw stronger employment growth.

Idaho Real Estate Market Update

Thumb_17451_idaho_gardnerreportq4_masthead

Posted in Idaho Real Estate Market Update by Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist, Windermere Real Estate


Idaho added 14,700 new jobs in 2017, representing a growth rate of 2.1%. Although this is still a reasonable figure—and well above the total U.S. rate— this rate continues a cooling off we’ve seen over the past few quarters, which is to be expected as the state has essentially reached full employment.

The State of Oregon added 30,600 new jobs over the past 12 months, representing an annual growth rate of 1.7%. Although job growth continues to slow, solid gains were still seen in the Construction (+7,400), Education & Health Services (+6,400), and Leisure & Hospitality (+5,200) sectors.

Utah Real Estate Market Update

Thumb_17447_utah_gardnerreportq4_masthead

Posted in Utah Real Estate Market Update by Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist, Windermere Real Estate


The State of Utah added 41,200 non-agricultural jobs over the past 12 months, representing a solid growth rate of 2.8%. Although the area has experienced a slowing in employment gains, the economy is running at full employment, which limits how many new jobs can be created. In last quarter’s report, I forecasted that the pace of employment growth was likely to kick back up during the last...

Posted in Colorado Real Estate Market Update by Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist, Windermere Real Estate


Colorado added 45,300 non-agricultural jobs over the past 12 months, a growth rate of 1.7%. Although that is a respectable number, employment growth has been trending lower in 2017 as the state reaches full employment. Within the metropolitan market areas included in this report, there was annual employment growth in all areas other than Grand Junction, where employment was modestly lower.
