DCAD says my little Dilbeck duplex in E. Dallas has gone up 260% in the last 5 years. I don’t think 2% off is going to help!

Reporting on housing prices is always incomplete and lazy.
Steve Brown’s report this morning about falling prices fails to make an important distinction between “existing home sales” and “new homes sales.” That would be much more telling. It also requires some effort. Steve Brown doesn’t work very hard to provide useful information.
I confirmed his laziness when I saw his picture. Wow. Sloppy, careless work, sloppy careless appearance.
