In general, prices have leveled off and/or dropped almost everywhere from what I understand (with exceptions, obviously).Business is way slower in both the real estate and title insurance businesses in Florida. This I know. From what I understand, it's the same on the west coast. Mortgage brokers are surely doing well though...since everyone who lost their ass has had to take out second, third, etc. mortgages on their homes.
edit:
I can not believe I actually just posted in this topic.
