Future Home Price Risk

CoreLogic is forecasting low risk of our homes going down in price over the next 12 months (see chart below). Our area falls into the “very low” category, with a less than 10% chance of price depreciation. As the U.S. population continues to shift in our direction, I agree with the company’s assessment that it is much more likely we continue to see rising home prices in the next year.
