Real Estate Report - Home Prices Increasing Nationally and in Raleigh

S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices show a 6.8% increase in national home values since the bottom of the market.

Home prices saw a very definite increase in the second quarter of 2010.  Good news for homeowners and those looking to sell.

- 2010 second quarter values increased 4.4% versus the first quarter.

- Home values have increased nationally by 6.8% since the first quarter of 2009 (the bottom point of the housing market)
