According to UPI.com, among the 2.8 million listings on Realtor.com, median prices in January were at $199,000, a 0.5 percent decrease from last year. Chicago was the No. 1 most-searched market, followed by Detroit, Mich.; Los Angeles-Long Beach, Calif.; Phoenix-Mesa, Ariz.; Las Vegas, Nev.; Dallas, Texas; Tampa-St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Fla.; Atlanta, Ga.; Orlando, Fla.; and Philadelphia, Pa.-N.J.
UPI says inventories rose compared to last year, a result of the flood of distressed sales and foreclosures on the market.
