Housing Prices 2006 over 2005

Surprisingly, and amid all the hoopla of a slow market and lower sales volumes, the average price for a home in Phoenix was up slightly in 2006 compared to 2007 according to the ASU Real Estate Center.

By December of 2006 average home prices were $222k compared to $205k for the same period the previous year. What you read in the newspaper about a "crashing" market is doom and gloom and I suspect a ploy to sell newspapers and generate water cooler gossip that turns into more bad urban legend.

Take heart owners, not all is bad. Although it may be a bit of a buyers market, you're still looking good.

Hi Darryl,

Welcome to the ActiveRain Blog network.
Shortly after I started blogging on Active Rain, I started having questions on how to do things and could not find the "Operating Manual".

I asked some questions to other bloggers and soon realized the the power was in the network since most questions had already been answered by other users more familiar with this website.

If you find yourself in this situation, and need to know how to do things, visit the post below and you will find tips, info and many features of ActiveRain that have been documented by other members.

Instructions, Getting Started on ActiveRain Blog community, Google Ranking, Networking info
Nice having you on board,
Mario
