WHY? Home prices are plummeting in the rest of the U.S., and our economy is in a recession!
Why is El Paso unique and prices keep soaring, even in light of the fact that this is a poor city?
Answer, can you say governmental greed? Our idiot mayor and county government won't stop over taxing us until there's no one left here to pay these never ending onerous taxes and fees!
Someone please stop the madness!
There are two reasons that prices are going up here still. First, this area never truly experienced the bubble experienced by other major cities. The second reason is an influx of new residents who are affluent with good jobs and can afford nicer houses which drives up the rest of the market.

I think what a lot of the up in arms blame the tax appraisal office people on here are missing is that the increase is based on the selling price of the houses, what people are willing and able to pay for homes, not what the tax appraiser says is the price of the home. The figures in the article were not calculated by our local tax appraisal office.

Everywhere we've been in the country the housing values have increased mostly because of out of town investors. In our neighborhood three years ago, investors from California bought numerous investment rental homes and sold them shortly after for incredibly inflated prices.

Maybe you should just take your little boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife whatever to California and live happily. They like "weanie washers" there. Hve fun.
