Interesting. So this index is looking this bad and it doesn’t even include much of the lowest value/fastest dropping part of the total housing market.
Thanks for confirming that for me.

I have a question regarding the Case-Shiller HPI. I’ve been reading through the methodology, found at http://www2.standardandpoors.com/spf/pdf/index/SP_Case_Shiller_Home_Price_Indices_Methodology_Web.pdf and came across the following on page 5, “The S&P/Case-Shiller indices do not sample sale prices associated with new
construction, condominiums, co-ops/apartments, multi-family dwellings, or other properties that cannot be identified as single-family.”
Is this intended to mean the index excludes ALL condos, or only newly constructed condos? I read it as meaning the first.

Pretty sure this has been shown here before, but I thought I would point out that it is now being displayed in the MSM.
The last time prices spiked like this-around 1895, they didn’t catch back up, adjusting for inflation, for about 95 years. At first I thought the argument that housing prices would never reach this point again seemed absurd. The data seems to say otherwise. Could very well be another 100 years before we’re above 2005 levels in Real dollars. Now that’s a longterm investment. Guess those 100 year mortgages Do make sense.
