Fifty percent of Texas real estate professionals and 62 percent of homeowners expect home values to 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.

We’ve already released the first quarter 2012 California home values survey and 1st quarter 2012 Florida home values survey data. Today we are releasing the Texas home values survey data. In the coming days we will be releasing home values survey data from Illinois, New York, New Jersey, Arizona and other states.
