I actually read that article this weekend. Definitely interesting. It seems like though, what's more important than month-to-month median price trends, is the Year over Year trend. There's a normal curve to prices over the course of a year, so considering month-to-month prices kind of obfuscates the real price trends. Year-over-year is a slightly clearer indicator of the market, or so I've been told. That could be misinformation though, so take it with a grain of salt.

With that in mind, http://seattlebubble.com/ has a *lot* of interesting data. Seattle's YoY index for March is down 3.3% vs 2007.
