The Top 10 Most Stable Housing Markets in America:
- Seattle, WA – 3.09% est. price increase from 2007–2008
- Pittsburgh, PA – 3.37%
- Columbus, OH – 3.49%
- Dallas, TX – 5.45%
- St. Louis, MO – 3.01%
- Cincinnati, OH – 2.65%
- Atlanta, Ga – 4.4%
- San Antonio, TX – 5.35%

Seattle the most stable? That’s not saying much.
My friends had to reduce their price by $100k (over 13% off) before they even got their first offer on their house.
In my condo complex prices have gone down about 10% since Spring.
Maybe they meant stably declining?

Real Estate Market nationwide is turning around & profit is coming back.
I been in Real Estate since 1981 and seen 3 big slow downs, but they turn back around & millions make money again on the new ride back up. As what is starting right now, so tell your friends to get out & buy something that has an upside profit & enjoy the money.
Your Welcome

i’m somewhat surprised to see Seattle so close to the top of the list. in Canada, Vancouver has really been hit quite hard, and I might have expected their economies to be somewhat similar. very interesting
