Still No Spring Rally for Median Home Prices
The size-adjusted median price for San Diego resale homes fell again in May, dropping 2.0 percent from April's median.
However, that number hid some widely disparate behavior between property types: the size-adjusted median was actually flat for single family homes while it fell a whopping 5.9 percent for condos.
From the peak of the series in September 2005, the size-adjusted median has fallen 28.0 percent for single family homes, 32.5 percent for condos, and 29.6 percent in aggregate. The bulk of that decline has taken place within the past year.
