June 2008: Houston median house price buoyant despite slower sales

While most housing market indicators have been tracking negative for months, Houston’s median home price for existing single-family housing is positively buoyant despite steady declines in sale volumes in recent months — the median price increased 1.5% in June 2008 when compared to last year.
