Home Price Index Declines Again in October 2011

The October 2011 Case Shiller Index showed continuing declines in home prices for the national scene and for the New York Metro area. Historically low interest rates have yet to ignite an upward trend in house prices. Most analysts still predict a positive trend for 2012.

Case Shiller National Index Declines for September

The release of the Case Shiller Home Price Index shows a 1.2% decline in the seasonally adjusted index for the month to month change from August to September 2011 and a trivial increase of 0.1% in the unadjusted number. The New York metro area also showed a trivial improvement of 0.2% in the seasonally adjusted number and 0.1% in the non adjusted number. Nationally these results bring us back to home price levels of approximately early 2003 and brings New York back to about mid 2004.

Case Shiller Flat for August

The non-seasonally adjusted Case Shiller index, which we use in these posts, shows small increases in the markets that we track, with the continuing exception of  Las Vegas. However the seasonally adjusted numbers show a small decline. Essentially the housing market is flat. Most analysts don’t expect real price increases until the job market improves.

Home Price Index Up for July

The Case Shiller unadjusted home price index showed another small increase for July. However analysts, citing declining sales volume over the summer, warn that this trend will not continue and that we will likely return to static or declining prices.

Case Shiller Home Price Index Up Again for June

The non seasonally adjusted Case Shiller Index once again shows gains for the June report compared to the prior month. While the seasonally adjusted numbers are decidedly more mixed, increasing numbers of reported sales, along with record low interest rates suggest that we are not likely to see more dramatic drops.

Case Shiller Continues Upturn for May 2011

The Case Shiller Home Price Index continued its upturn through May 2011. Though much of the increase was related to seasonal spring buying strength, most metro areas showed some increases. However on a year over year basis May 2011 was still below May 2010.
