HPI Decline Rate Holds, Improving Market Prospects

“No-Acceleration” Rate of Decline Trend Continues

"As of July, nominal U.S. home prices declined 10.9 percent from a year ago,” said Mark Fleming, chief economist for First American CoreLogic, “while early August data indicates a 10.8 percent decline from a year ago. This continues the positive trend of no further acceleration in the pace of the rate of decline, a trend similar to what we saw in the Massachusetts and Texas house price declines in the 80’s and 90’s that took approximately two years to bottom out. In both cases the rate of decline stabilized before the lengthy recovery in price levels could begin." Added Fleming: “There is reason now to be cautiously optimistic, because the price decline stabilization we’re observing in this cycle is necessary before any improvement in price levels can occur (more).”
