In the table below, www.brokerforyou.com looked at selected San Diego neighborhoods
that had 10 or more closed condominium sales in October 2008 & October 2007.
compiled by DataQuick Information Systems & published in the San Diego Union-Tribune.
One should keep in mind the above chart is just for a one year period (October 2007 vs. October 2008) and
San Diego home values topped out around the Summer of 2005!
Lastly, I would note that these figures do not take into account the very prevalent seller concession
(usually payment of thousands in the buyer's closing costs) necessitated by an ultra strong buyers market place.

I remember in 2005 that it seems every month the paper reported that real estate sales were down by double digits though the values seem to be holding up. You would think an intelligent person would realize sales cannot drop by such a magnitude without values following.
