Check out the latest home sales in Bakersfield!
Our latest home sales map is ready for a peek. No need to grab a map and figure out where to find Kings Canyon or Queensbury drives. (Homes on both royalty-themed streets recently sold.) We’ve done the work for you in this map. This map is updated with homes that sold in Bakersfield Jan. 28 to Jan. 231, 2008, but includes earlier weeks of the month too, color-coded by sales price. You can easily check out what homes are going for with the information from First American Real Estate Solutions compiled by reporter Vanessa Gregory. Highlights from the week: 13 homes were sold. Priciest? One sold for $590,000 in the 93314 ZIP code. Cheapest? One sold for $135,000 in the 93305 ZIP code. — Christine Peterson 3 comments from 3 users

You're very welcome! I'm actually starting on the February map now, as we have a few sales from Feb. 1 to share. We'll update weekly, and whenever we have data for the next month, start a new map. So for now we have one for December 2007 and one for January 2008. February is coming soon! — Christine Peterson posted by

The culprit is the collapse of the U.S. housing market. California, the birthplace of the subprime mortgage industry, is paying the highest price of any state as the housing meltdown persists. Its gross domestic product will drop 1.5 percent in the first half of 2008, the most in the U.S., analysts at Lexington, Massachusetts-based Global Insight Inc. estimate.
