Boy, according to what I'm reading here, we must have gotten lucky and bucked the trend. The home we bought in Hadley was originally bought for $296,800 in December of 2007 and we bought it in January of this year for $264,500, a drop of 10.9%. Also, according to the Zillow.com website, the asking price of $269,000 was only a few thousands below it's estimated market value at the time and has gone up a few more since. At the same time we missed a golden opportunity by not going out and buying a lottery ticket on the day we closed!
