City-by-city price comps
|
Prices in the Research Triangle town haven't dropped as much as other cities, but the median price is likely to decline this year as more distressed properties come on the market. Sales activity is expected to be flat. Part of the reason is that relocations will slow as people find difficulty selling their homes elsewhere, according to John Burns Real Estate Consulting. | | Median price end of 2008: | $230,900 | | Median price end of 2007: | $235,600 | | Percent change: | -2% | | Projected change through Q3 2009: | -0.6% | | Affordability rating: | 1.1 | Foreclosures in 2008:
