'I recently sold a 4B/2B older home 2 blocks from downtown Kona and the beach for $189,000' So what would that have sold for at the peak 2006 or back in say 1999? Sounds very reasonable to me..I hope to get a contract on a 3/2/2 house of mine, two docks, no fixed bridges to the harbor and Gulf of Mexico for just $169k. That is down 65% from the peak and double what it sold for way back in 1979.. Your story only strengthens my point that much less of the country now has inflated home prices than at anytime since this board was started near 10 years ago.
