I guess this lends support that people across the income range have been 'buying up' over what they could afford.

Plus, I would assume the fraudsters would be buying up lots of million-dollar flips. After all, if you are not planning on paying off a mortgage, might as well get a huge one!

It's not too surprising that California is #1, since about half of all million dollar homes in the country are located in this state.

Yeah, this is kind of like finding out that 98% of all Martians live on Mars.
