Description

Spokane’s wildfire devastation has obliterated over 900 structures, igniting a housing crisis that could push prices higher and crush first-time buyers. With a pre-existing shortage of 20,000 to 30,000 homes, survivors face years of rebuilding, underinsurance, and modern code costs — while rental markets buckle and some flee to North Idaho. Officials scramble to speed up permits and recovery, but rebuilding is a marathon, not a sprint — and insurance hikes may leave many uninsured for good.
