Market Overview
Boardman Housing Market
Boardman is a township of approximately 35,000 residents in Mahoning County, Ohio, functioning as the commercial and residential hub of the southern Mahoning Valley. It is where most of the region's retail, dining, and medical infrastructure is concentrated — anchored by the Boardman-Canfield Road corridor, Southern Park Mall, and the Mercy Health Youngstown campus. For real estate, Boardman offers the widest range of housing stock in the Valley: affordable starter homes under $100K, solid mid-market ranches and colonials from $120K-$250K, and newer construction pushing above $300K in the southern sections. Property taxes are moderate compared to Canfield and Poland. Malinda Koncar's office is located at 1315 Boardman-Canfield Road, and Boardman is where she has completed more transactions than any other community.

Buying in Boardman
Boardman has the most diverse housing inventory in the Mahoning Valley, which means more options but also more variation in condition, taxes, and neighborhood quality. Do not skip the home inspection — Boardman's housing stock ranges from well-maintained to deferred-maintenance, and the price will not always tell you which is which. Get pre-approved before your first showing. Malinda's office is in Boardman and she knows the township parcel by parcel.
Selling in Boardman
Boardman's wide price range means your competition is other Boardman listings, not Canfield or Poland. Accurate pricing based on your specific neighborhood and condition is critical — overpricing a Boardman home by even 5% can add weeks to your timeline. Malinda prices from closed comp data in your exact section of Boardman, not township-wide averages. Her three MLS memberships ensure your listing reaches buyers from Ohio and Pennsylvania.
