The all-transactions House Price Index (HPI), which includes data from mortgages used for both home purchases and refinancings, fell for the U.S. overall during the latest quarter (2nd quarter 2010). The national index declined 0.54 percent in 2010q2 and 4.95 percent over the four-quarter period 2009q2 to 2010q2. Among metros, the Bend, OR MSA had the largest the four-quarter period 2009q2 to 2010q2 HPI percent decline -- an 18.59 percent decrease, a slight improvement from the previous four quarter HPI change -- 23 percent decrease, yet it continued to decrease. 348 metros of 384 (metros for which HPI is computed) experienced a four-quarter period 2009q2 to 2010q2 HPI decline; with only 35 metros experiencing an increase. Metros with highest four-quarter HPI percent change were Lawton, OK (4.94) and Ithaca, NY (3.15). Use the ranking table presented below to examine states and metros of interest.

Differences in State versus Metro HPI Values
Comparing HPI values in the above table for states versus metros shows that states HPI values that are much larger than metro HPI values. The reason for this is that state indexes have a base of 100 for 1980Q1, whereas metro indexes have a base of 100 for 1995Q1. While the indexes can be re-based, the data are presented here just as estimated by FHFA. For more information regarding HPI re-basing and analysis, contact Proximity. Different bases have no impact on the percent change measures, as shown in the table, which will typically be of most interest. The graphics in the expanding sections below illustrate the differences between using the same versus different base years for the State of Arizona and Arizona metros.
