When Bobby Shiller, Karl Case, and I first developed it, it was called the Case Shiller Sizzle index.<BR/><BR/>The CSSizz index was heavily focused on arlington. Karl & Bob found my obsession on ARL misplaced so they kicked me out - now its just the CS index.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, the CSSizz index is by far more accurate than the CS index when it comes to arlington. The CSSizz says ARLINGTON IS DOWN 40%.

Mid end and low end housing are off by much more.<BR/><BR/>Not only that, but even in the high end, there is a big difference depending upon where that high end is located. Case shiller admits "high end" far from the city center is doing far worse than "high end" out in the exurbs<BR/><BR/>http://www2.standardandpoors.com/spf/pdf/index/052708_Housing_bubbles_collapse.pdf<BR/><BR/>So sleep well Jethro.

Even with the huge price declines we are seeing now, we are still 94% above 2000 level pricing.<BR/><BR/>It also appears unlikely that we will get down to that level ever again. Other cities like LA, San Diego, etc. got far above 2000 prices and are now crashing back towards them. By comparison, our price drops are about 1/2 what they are out there, and the burn rate is so slow, we are unlikely to ever get as far down as they all will. <BR/><BR/>None of this is good news mind you. It just means that in a beauty contest where all the contestants are morbidly obese, our muffin top phisique makes us much hotter than all the competition. WERE #1!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
