Your friend is wrong. I can tell you this as I have many friends in New Jersey. And relatives. And former bosses and co-workers. And teachers and former classmates and...Well. Anyway, homes in general, in most major areas--New Jersey as a state certainly doesn't have the market cornered on this--are coming down a bit now. But "low-end" houses being the only to sell? That is just beyond silly.

It's worth it. Many people want to live in New Jersey. The house was bought...right?

McMansion? But I thought she hated the McMansions in Jersey?

McMansion in Tennessee=Desirable, all-brick home with 65 windows in neighborhood with millionaires who sold their homes in California for millions and bought $400k homes with low taxes, all the while driving sports cars because they like speed

McMansion in New Jersey=Undesirable, vinyl-sided home in neighborhood with 20 and 30-something owners with 20:1 debt to income ratios who drive leased Hummers and menance their neighbors with shopping carts, all the while being thisclose to foreclosure

Did I get this right?
