Miami Metro Median Home Price Is Stable?

Below is a chart that shows the trends for median home price and home sales for the Miami Metro area from January 2007 through August 2011.



It appears since the beginning of 2009 that the median home price has stablized. That is some good news, unfortunately though home sales are flat.
