Recently (this week) there was an article in Fortune that rated the best places to own real estate and Albuquerque comes in at #3 on the list nationally with a projected increase in 2007 of 5.9% and .6% in 2008. So for those thinking of selling end of 2007 or early 2008 that is a good thing.
Median house price is $179,620. I personally think that is a bit low considering what I've seen in the last couple of years since I've been here.
