Really? Hmmmm Now why would someone post that home sale prices are up, if that was not their intent to say that home sale prices were up? What was the intent?
It's called obsessing... you seem to be obsessed with what I posted. I'll post some data again that I read and the link so you can read it yourself (Exactly as I did in my original post)
Average price per square foot for Schenectady NY was $105, an increase of 19.3% compared to the same period last year. The median sales price for homes in Schenectady NY for Apr 12 to Jun 12 was $150,000 based on 71 home sales. Compared to the same period one year ago, the median home sales price increased 23%, or $28,000.
It's the exact same SCHENECTADY NY data that I posted before that you seems to have you in such a snit. (My guess... a "snit" is your normal state) Go to the posted link... Look at the data displayed there. Their data is what you are obsessing over, not mine. If you don't like what you read... don't read it. If you disagree with Trulia Schenectady Real Estate Overview, that's your problem, not mine. If you think that these real estate numbers are incorrect... then write Trulia a letter of complaint. I'm sure they will appreciate your correction.
But... if you want to keep this obsessing thing going... if ranting and raving about data on a real estate site is what you like to do... then please continue.

Box, you tried to respond to a post of mine and try to produce evidence that contradicted what I said.
But what kind of research did you do when you presented the copy/paste thing? Did you bother to identify what the definition of Schenectady was on that website? I trust you DO know that the copy/paste job you did includes sales OUTSIDE the city (including Guilderland in Albany Co). So you were presenting evidence on oranges when I was asking about apples.
All you need to do Box, is to admit you actually failed to produce evidence that home values were up in the city, because you failed to find out what comprised that median value that you presented.
I stated that home values in the CITY were going down and I challenged anyone to produce evidence to contradict that. You tried to contradict my evidence by using sales outside of the city, and especially when you include Guilderland (Guilderland alone had an increase of 10% in sales prices for the first 6 months of this year compared to the same period last year).
So again, I can state the facts - home values in Schenectady (CITY--as indicated by the reference to the mayor) are decreasing, are plummeting big time, far more than the mayor claims (his announced 4% reduction in values). No one can produce evidence to contradict my statement that home values in the city are plummeting.
Optimists close their eyes and pretend problems are non existent. Better to have open eyes, see the truths, acknowledge the negatives, and speak up for the people rather than the politicos and their rich cronies.

~I'm glad you've calmed down from your snit. (I knew you could do it!)
1. I did not "try to respond" I did respond. 2. Why do you assume that I posted to "contract" what you said. I posted something on the subject. That's all. It wasn't "EVIDENCE"... it was on the issue. Take from it what you want. 3. Nope. 4. Of course I read that. I wasn't concerned with it. 5. Again... I WASN'T PRODUCING EVIDENCE... just a resource on the subject being discussed. 6. (One of your best) "All I need to do???" LOL! Funny!!! I don't need to do anything!!!!! 6. Again - "admit you actually failed to produce evidence"??? I never produced EVIDENCE... or tried to. Just a link. 7."You tried to contradict my evidence"... Nope. (you obsess on "contradict your evidence") I posted info. if you see it as a contradiction, that's your issue. 8 You are stating your position... I never had a problem with that position... and I don't know if your position is valid or not. (and don't much care) but everyone on this board is welcome to their opinion. Everyone includes you and I.
Oh... and Graham is still a dweeb!

But in Schenectady, we all KNOW that the mayor claimed he lowered values by 4%, but further, we all know---and the EVIDENCE proves it--that home have fallen probably 20% in Schenectady on the average.
And anyone one who wants to contradict these statements should produce evidence.
… Schenectady NY … The median sales price for homes in Schenectady NY …. Compared to the same period one year ago, the median home sales price increased 23%, or $28,000.
... but I did produce EVIDENCE... a link to some facts about home prices in Schdy.
…
I stated that home values were DOWN in Schenectady, you responded with alleged evidence, i.e., some "facts" about home prices in Schenectady when, in fact, the evidence you produced was "a link to some facts about home prices 'in the suburban towns around the city AND in Guilderland in Albany Co'"
All that is needed is to do the research before the copy/paste posting. That's just like DV - he copied and pasted from election propaganda when he said that county taxes were the lowest in 50 years, but he did no research whatsoever so his (copy/past) statement was wrong and to this day he has not been able to prove that the county taxes are lower, he cannot provide one shred of proof using the numbers.

Um.... How long do your pushy "I DEMAND EVIDENCE" snits usually last?
You do realize that an actual 'snit' which continues for over a week will automatically turn into a full fledged "HISSY FIT"! Please use caution!

it only takes a FEW folks with metroplex/IDA $$ to 'over purchase' and raise the values....not to mention the banks making it more difficult to get mortgages and moodys to play along and there's your recipe.....
no one jump around there's a souffle in the oven....it's VEEEEEERY light and airy
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
STOP BEING GOOD DEMOCRATS---STOP BEING GOOD REPUBLICANS--START BEING GOOD AMERICANS
HISSY FIT....LOL....haven't heard that in a long time....
Yea from his/her posts... I'm afraid that he/she is prone to tantrums! Sad.

I don't think of them as tantrums as much as exasperation of current poor management
Well I hope he/she calms down a bit. I'd hate to be responsible for causing a dreaded "conniption fit"!

But again, Box, WHERE are these houses that make up that price.
Just ADMIT that this is NOT Schenectady CITY.
Just ADMIT these prices INCLUDE Albany Co.
Just ADMIT you did a copy/paste without confirming these were sales IN SCHENECTADY CITY.
You don't have a clue that these websites have no clue that the 12303 zip code is in Albany Co as well as Schenectady Co outside of the city. You have no clue that these websites have no clue that the 12309 zip code includes areas OUTSIDE of the CITY. Ditto 12306.
Now can you provide information on home values IN THE CITY OF SCHENECTADY??
Now throwing a hissy fit nor tantrum, just expecting that when you post information that you know what you are posting, and I trust you will admit that you included sales from the high priced Guilderland in Albany Co in order to make it seem like prices are up in Schenectady when clearly they are down, WAY DOWN.

When the house of cards tumbles, anyone with a college degree will be dead, so the remaining stunads on welfare who can't add will be there to keep voting democrap.
"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

Admit, admit ADMIT!!! First it was "EVIDENCE"
Now it's "ADMIT"
If you have a problem with these "SCHENECTADY" home values in the two well respected real estate sites that I linked... you should take it up with them. Every one makes mistakes and possibly, they made a mistake... Both of them... Possibly!
I'm sure they will both appreciate your correction.

Why do you refuse to admit those "increased values" include homes in Albany?
Do you have any stats on the CITY of Schenectady that proves the values are up?
