6525 N Longfellow Drive sold for 980K by Long Realty; it last sold for $1,250,000 in the fall of 2005 at the peak of the market. This shows a decrease of almost 22% which is very par for the course for those selling homes that they purchased at the peak of the market. In fact this Seller did well since many homes around the 1 million figure or higher see even more depreciation. This may be a sign of things to come where the true bargains are lessening. We have seen the bottom reached with some appreciation looming for the high-end homes that have suffered the most depreciation in the past 7 years.

Unfortunately River Gate Estates became a new development just before the crash so had a very hard time selling as new, and has never fully recovered. It is gated and the located off of River Road with very nice high mountain and city views so this community should have taken off, but it never really did.
Prices are sure to go up and likely have bottomed here.
