You can see that 2009 was a good year for real estate. It began with a bang and ended with a wimper, but overall the prices and activity were very high. Most are anticipating that the average prices may fall about 3 to 5% in 2009. Of course, only time will tell, but our market is still quite strong and activiy during this first week of 2009 has been up compared to the past 2 months, from my perspective.Read the full report and analysis of the results with graphs of prices and trends at this page:
