Local Appraiser and Real Estate Consultant, Bryan Flaherty, keeps track of the numbers that make up Missoula's housing market, "our sales were down this year, 10% from last year but compared to other parts of the country, our overall sales volume is good." So far in 2009, sold signs popped up in the front yards of 643 homes, the majority with price tags of $200,000 to $275,000. Sales in that range in Missoula are outpacing sales in other parts of the country. source: http://www.montanasnewsstation.com/Global/story.asp?S=11403919

Considering the National Market Missoula Real Estate is looking pretty good right now.
