Prices in our neighborhood look good, because there have been few sales recently; the comps are based on sales going on a year old.

When prices are consistent: going up, going down or steady, information like this report is useful. But when things begin to change, shift, fluctuate, it can take a long time (maybe years) for any trend to appear. Remember, a car sliding on ice can look like everything is ok…til it looks really bad.
