Walnut Creek Price Drops

When we say price drops, we mean price drops; actually, in the case of the first property, the price was shockingly low in the first place. Prices are going down even in the hot town of Walnut Creek, from the humblest to the ritziest abodes, as these listings demonstrate. (Drops courtesy of aussiegal on flickr.)
1232 Skycrest Drive #4, Walnut Creek: 2 bedrooms/1 bath, 1,054 sq ft, was $154,200, now $150,200. As you might expect for such a jaw-droppingly low price, this condo is not knock-down gorgeous, but hey, it’s got a dishwasher and looks immaculately clean. Guess those $711 homeowners’ fees are part of the problem, but still!
106 Ready Road, Walnut Creek: 5 bedrooms/3 baths, 2,913 sq ft, was $1,189,000, now $1,159,000. Speaking of from the humblest to the ritziest, the drop in this home’s price could make a nice down payment on the one above.
33 Mulberry Lane, Walnut Creek: 2 bedrooms/1.5 baths, 1,008 sq ft, was $569,000, now $499,000. Two fireplaces and a deck, a detached dwelling in the Walnut Creek school district – what’s not to like?
346 Kinross Drive, Walnut Creek: 3 bedrooms/2.5 baths, 1,915 sq ft, was $649,900, now $600,000. This condo has a fireplace and a gleaming natural wood deck surrounded by trees, and has been on Redfin 56 days. Whoa.
208 Hamlin Loop, Walnut Creek: 4 bedrooms/2.5 baths, 1,604 sq ft, was $660,000, now $574,950.
