Housing Prices Continue to Fall

May 26, 2009

The S&P Case-Shiller home price index was released for March and the results don’t look very good for home owners.  House prices continued to drop and are now 19.1% lower than they were 12 months ago.  For people looking to buy a house, things look pretty good.

The problems for buyers is that no one is sure where the bottom is.  Also many sellers still think their house is worth what it was a few years ago.  The best deals may not be had for several month.
