For the 11th straight month, existing home sales were up in the Valley.

Buyers were taking advantage of discounted foreclosed homes.

Seventy-one percent of the Las Vegas area houses and condos that re-sold in February were foreclosures.

The median price for re-sale homes fell to $86 per square foot last month.

That's down nearly 35 percent from last year.

The median home price for new and existing homes is now $150,000, a 40 percent drop from last year.
