ARLINGTON, Va., Dec. 22 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Angels come in all forms and, this holiday season, 15 families displaced by Hurricane Katrina have found their angels in Oprah Winfrey and filmmaker Tyler Perry ("Diary of a Mad Black Woman," "Madea's Family Reunion"). Perry, a native of New Orleans, donated $1 million to Oprah's Angel Network, which in turn funded Habitat for Humanity's "Operation Home Delivery" to replace homes lost in the New Orleans flooding that followed Hurricane Katrina. Fifteen families moved into their new, fully-furnished homes in Baton Rouge, just in time for Christmas. For the first time in its U.S. operations, Habitat for Humanity is using modular, or factory-built, homes in order to speed up delivery to displaced families. Not enough volunteers are available for the scope of rebuilding needed in the Gulf Region, and modular homes can be delivered in almost move- in condition, whereas site-built homes require months of labor to complete.

-The housing correction. My prediction in the 2006 "What's In, What's Out" I forecasted a soft decline in home prices in most markets. In 2007 project a 5-8% decline in prices on average between single-family and condominium homes.
-Homes that are priced right.
