8 Markets Where List Prices Have Fallen the Most

Daily Real Estate News | Wednesday, February 22, 2012

Median list prices nationwide are up 3.69 percent year over year, according to Realtor.com data, which tracks 146 metro areas. More housing markets are showing signs of stabilizing, as inventories of for-sale homes are dropping.

But a few metro areas continue to see falling list prices. Many of these areas are plagued by foreclosures that are chipping away at home prices.
