Although Southeast Boise took a lesser hit than other areas in the recent housing market crash, several Southeast Boise homeowners who purchased homes at the height of the market were still finding themselves underwater in their mortgage at the beginning of this year. Fortunately, however, things are looking up for Southeast Boise home values, which are now surpassing the already rising home values for the rest of the Boise area.
