Homes from 1800 to 1999 square feet are HOT!

Homes below 1600 square feet are selling well -- approaching a buyer's market.

Homes over 2400 square feet are NOT --

- as in not selling.

None in this range sold in the last three months.

Homes over 2200 square feet have an

aggregate available inventory of

20 months.

The $8000 federal tax credit is driving the sizes at or below
the (1400-1599 square-foot) median home size.

Nothing comparable is driving the sale of large homes.
