The pricing distributions are out for Texas cities through September 2009.  It’s absurd to begin a comparison because 2008 data includes twelve months, but 2009 data has only nine.  The data is posted for trend foreshadowing.  For example, in the $30,000 to $39,999 price category, Corpus is already up 9.7 percent from last year.  This indicates a high number of purchases of extremely low priced homes.  The percentage of the purchases in categories under $89,999 are also much higher than their 2008 counterparts.  Most home purchases in Corpus are likely to be lower moderate to low priced homes for 2009.
