Ninety percent of Illinois real estate professionals and 80 percent of Illinois homeowners predict home values will decline or stay the same in the next six months
HomeGain, one of the first companies to provide free instant home valuations online, released the results of our first quarter 2012 nationwide home values survey of over 400 HomeGain current and former members and more than 1,700 home owners. The survey asked their opinions on home prices and what they thought of President Obama’s performance as President. On this real estate blog we published the 1st quarter 2012 national results as well as the complete 1st quarter 2012 regional results, including commentary from real estate agents and brokers.
Earlier this month we released the California 1st quarter 2012 home values survey data, the Florida 1st quarter 2012 home values survey data, and the 1st quarter 2012 Texas home prices survey data. In the coming days we will be releasing home values survey data from New York, New Jersey, Arizona, and other states.

Those figures and value in the chart above are interesting indeed. Look how big the percentage of the home value decreased for 2012 and to think that 40% of homeowners believed their homes 10-20% worth higher.

38% believe their home price is 10-20% higher which according to me is good sign. But that needs to continue to make investment roll-in real estate market.
