The Desert Sun, Sunday Oct. 26:
"Foreclosures and lower prices lead to huge boost in home sales.
The rising number of foreclosures and ever-lowering median prices gave Riverside County's housing sales a tremendous boos in September.
Figures released by DataQuick last week show 4551 homes sold countywide--up 106.1% over a year ago.
A big reason is price: Countywide, the median price dripped 36.8% to $237,500 from $375,000 in Sept. 2007.
Coachella Valley-specific numbers for Sept. have yet to be released. But, sales reported on the Desert Area Multiple Listing Service indicate the same trends are occurring here.
In Coachella Valley , a total of 1,400 homes were in some stage of foreclosure in September."
