Kennewick Expected to Gain 3.4% Appreciation by June 2010

According to a new forecast of real estate prices, CNNMoney.com has indicated that home values will drop in 342 out of 381 markets during the next year.  Overall, the national median home price is predicted to drop 11.3% by June 30, 2010, according to Fiserv, a financial information and analysis firm. For the following year, the firm anticipates some stabilization with prices rising 3.6%.

However, a handful of metro areas will buck the trend, according to Fiserv. Six markets will remain flat, and 33 will actually post gains. The biggest winner will be the Kennewick, Wash., metro area, where home prices have ramped up 8.9% over the past three years and are expected to increase another 3.4% by June 2010.
