I would also like to add that after speaking with the homeowner, she has stated that her quote in the paper with regards to the $100,000 price decrease was a complete misquote and did not make that statement.

I am a local realtor who has sold many homes in the beautiful Inspirada community. There is not a community like it in Vegas! I have been selling homes there since the community first opened and I have "NOT" seen a $100,000 price drop nor do I expect to. As we all know, the Vegas housing market has seen a slump for the past 24 months. Anyone who thinks Inspirada is in a bubble of its own and should not be affected by the declining market is living in a dream world. However, the homeowners who were lucky enough to buy in this market were the lucky ones because in a normal market the beautiful homes they purchased would be much much more.

As for the homeowner with the statue, I drive by it quite often and love it as do my clients. I have spoken to the homeowner personally and have found her to be sensitive, normal and most concerned with what her neighbors think. I find it quite interesting how crule people can be when they are writing a blog!
