The reason the median price is going up is because the top end is getting crushed and more sales(% wise) are now occurring at the upper end skewing the median price higher.

I just saw a closing today for 690k here in Kona. The guy paid 900k at the bottom of the last recession in 1994. Minus his 7%+ closing fees, I'm guessing his ass hurts really really bad today. House was likely in the $1.8-2m range at the 05/06 peak.
