Small city, serious growth, built for remote owners

Star is the Valley’s small city success story, growing faster by percentage than almost anywhere around it while keeping its river valley character. Many Star rentals belong to owners who moved for work or family and kept the house, which makes clear remote reporting the difference between confidence and worry.

AIM owners watch everything from a 24/7 online portal: owner statements, rent roll, profit and loss, market rent analysis, and scanned vendor bills tied to every work order. Rent arrives through the resident portal, income is distributed by the 10th, and if anything is unpaid you know by the 10th with a plan already in motion.

Star Neighborhoods

Where we manage rentals in Star

Star has grown from a small farm town into one of the fastest growing cities in Idaho, and most of its rental homes are less than twenty years old. The differences between neighborhoods come down to location, lot size, and which HOA rules apply.

Downtown Star and State Street

Homes near the city center along State Street, close to local shops, schools, and parks. Tenants like the small town feel and the straight commute east toward Eagle and Boise.

Along the Boise River

Neighborhoods on the south side of town near the river and its pathways, where outdoor access is the draw. Irrigation and riverside landscaping need a clear plan, and we spell out yard responsibilities in every lease.

North Star subdivisions

Newer master-planned subdivisions north of State Street, many with community amenities and active HOAs. Every AIM managed rental in an HOA gets regular compliance checks, so lawn, parking, and exterior issues are fixed before they become violation letters.

West Star toward Middleton

Newer homes on the western edge of town, some of them across the Canyon County line. These homes often lease at lower price points than central Star and appeal to families who want a newer home with room to grow.

Star Rent Prices

What Star homes rent for right now

As of fall 2026, most 3 bedroom houses in Star rent for roughly $2,100 to $2,450 a month, and 4 bedroom homes for about $2,450 to $2,800. The average rent for a house in Star was about $2,500 (Zumper, September 2026). Star has a small rental market, so published averages move quickly and should be treated as a starting point.

With fewer rentals to compare against, pricing a Star home well takes local knowledge of recent leases in Star, Eagle, and west Meridian. Request your free rent analysis and we will send a written rent range with an expected leasing timeline.

What people say about working with AIM

4 months ago

Tbh, never thought I’d say this about a property management place.. but yeah, 5/5 for sure. I got into the house and it has had a few issues (normal issues) and they literally always investigate and fix the issue within 24 hours usually. I feel I’m a good tenant, I take care of the place and def pay my rent on time always.. but they have been very fair, they haven’t harassed me at all about anything the last year, and they get things fixed or even updated as soon as I told them about any issue at all. Very solid place to rent from!

I can't say how much I appreciate it thank you assets and investments and for your quick response time and amazing maintenance workers!

Owning a Rental in Star

One city, two counties: what Star owners should know

Star sits on the line between Ada and Canyon counties, and part of the city lies in each. Depending on the address, your Star home may have a different county assessor, a different property tax rate, and in some cases a different school district than a home a mile away. We note the county and district in every rent analysis, because families ask about schools before anything else.

Many Star rentals belong to owners who moved for work or family and kept the house. If that is you, keep one detail in mind: Idaho’s homeowner’s exemption only applies to your primary residence. Once your Star home becomes a rental, check with the county assessor, and budget for a higher property tax bill in your rental numbers.

This is general information, not tax advice.

Common Questions

How long does it take to lease a home in Star?

Leasing time in Star depends on pricing, season, and how the home shows. Star’s smaller market is offset by the marketing reach of a manager with 450+ Valley homes: directional signage, cross traffic, and community referrals all feed Star vacancies.

Do you manage homes outside Star?

Yes. From our Meridian office we manage rentals throughout the Treasure Valley, including Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Caldwell, Eagle, and Kuna. Pricing and service are identical in every city we serve.

How much does property management cost in Star?

A flat 7 percent of collected rent, plus a one time $275 tenant placement fee for single family homes with all advertising included. There is no management fee while your Star home is vacant, no leasing commission, and no lease renewal fee. See the full fee schedule.

How much can I rent my Star house for?

As of fall 2026, most 3 bedroom houses in Star rent for about $2,100 to $2,450 a month, and 4 bedroom homes for about $2,450 to $2,800. Star has a small rental market, so we price every home against recent leases in Star and nearby Eagle and Meridian in a free written rent analysis.

Can you manage my Star rental if I live out of state?

Yes. Many of our Star owners live elsewhere. You see owner statements, the rent roll, profit and loss, and scanned vendor bills in our 24/7 online portal, and rental income is distributed by the 10th of each month.

Will renting out my Star home change my property taxes?

It can. Idaho’s homeowner’s exemption only applies to a primary residence, so a home that becomes a rental usually loses it. Check with the Ada or Canyon County assessor, depending on where your home is, and include the higher tax bill in your rental budget.
