DataQuick's March, 2006 Results

Here's DataQuick's take on the March, 2006 sales results for the Bay Area; markets continue to erode. DataQuick's March report for Marin County is consistent with that found elsewhere on this blog -- year-over-year, prices remain essentially flat and sales volume continues to be negative.

I look forward to see how the Marin IJ spins this.

I love how none of the local news media goes near the inventory question. Are sales lower in the face of similar or higher inventory levels compared to last year? Would be nice to know -);

How about this: "Real Estate Inventories Increase slightly as Median Prices Continue To Rise"

Do you suppose Marin homeowners will overlook the sales volumedrop, concluding local prices are "stable"?

the press democrat says the market is stable as the median in march 05,and march 06 is identical a 575k.of course it was at 619 k in october....and inventory went up 1100 homes between 3-20 and 4-20 in sonoma county.add up the number of pages that real estate ads make up of all the ads in your paper,this might,perhaps have some minor affect on the editorial stance and content of the paper.

tom - Did somebody yell "fire" or are people just moving orderly toward the exits?

LOL... SFJack... someone whispered "fire" and none of them are aware that other people heard it too... they seem to be unaware of how many houses are on the market in our area... they take all the for sale signs as nothing more than a symbol of prosperity reinforcing that someone is going to make a killing because everyone wants to live here.
