FIRST ANSWER

Trulia gets their information from the county records and the local multiple listing service. They rely on closed escrow data to average the sales price information which skews the numbers due to the large volume of bank foreclosures.
Websites like Trulia and Zillow are a decent guide, but I would not recommend making a final decision to list or sell a home based on the information they dissiminate.
