The December report is a little more mixed:

“The turn-around in home prices seen in the Spring and Summer has faded with only seven of the 20 cities seeing month-to-month gains, although all 20 continue to show improvements on a year-over-year basis. All in all, this report should be described as flat.” says David M. Blitzer, Chairman of the Index Committee at Standard & Poor’s.

Are we headed for positive year-to-year gains in this national poll sometime this Spring? We’ll see, but we’d also note that ‘all real estate is local’. Indeed, the week of December 24th thru January 3rd yielded the biggest single week of contracts for OSRG since May of 2008. Here comes the pent up demand!
