Not Bad, seems to me like Dallas is just flat.

Most of the places that normally have great increases have slowed down or stopped. Some smaller citites/areas are seeing nice increases in value.

Your feeling is right on. According to the OFHEO index The Dallas-Plano-Irving, TX (MSAD) housing market registered a 4.1% increase during the whole 2006 but in the fourth quarter prices did remain flat just rising a notch (0.6%).
