Some local MLS's maintain ...

Some local MLS's maintain historical data for many years while others do not. You may want to contact a seasoned agent in your area to see if they can find the data feed for homes sold in 2001 and 2002 and thus create a CMA for the time period you asked about. Another technique might be to go back as far as possible and then back out the average increased during the years that are missing. In Phoenix, we could look at the sales numbers in 2004 and back out 5% per year for two years and give you an approximate value in 2002. The data after 2005 is too unpredictable to use for this scenario but figures for 2003 or 2004 would have been "pre-frenzy" and be rather reliable.

Hope this helps,
