Perhaps we have a misunderstanding here. When I began my original post to you with the statement "The increased price of homes is regional" I meant the increases that were causing the term "bubble" to be tossed around. Median increase seem to be about 12-17% with the higher median increases in the areas I mentioned and some truly outrageous increases in places like Boston, Cape Cod and the Suburbs of NYC as well as the west coast.
