Philadelphia House Price Indices, 2011 Q1 Philadelphia’s Decline in House Values Slows Significantly in Q1 . . . House prices decline 1.3% in 2011 Q1.Following several consecutive quarters of sharp price declines, the Philadelphia housing market appeared to have tapped the brakes this past winter.The typical Philadelphia home fell in value by an average of 1.3% on a quality- and seasonally- adjusted basis this past winter, according to the latest data from the City’s Recorder of Deeds. This comes after several consecutive quarters in which price declines totaled nearly 9% following the expiration of the Federal homebuyer tax credit last spring. And, while the winter season is normally a down period for both home sales and prices, this winter’s price decline is the smallest since 2007. With this most recent decrease, the average Philadelphia home has now fallen in value by a cumulative total of 16% since the bursting of the national housing bubble several years ago. Philadelphia’s house values have now reverted back to 2005 levels. (April 25, 2011)

Philadelphia House Price Diffusion Index

Philadelphia HPIDiffusion Index

The diffusion index measures how varied the direction of house price changes are across Philadelphia neighborhoods. It is computed as the percent difference between the number of nieghborhoods in which prices rose in a give quarter, and the number of neighborhoods in which prices fell. A value of -100% indicates that prices fell citywide in a given quarter, while a value of +100% indicates that prices rose citywide. A value of 0% indicates that house price changes were evenly split between increases and decreases, across neighborhoods. Diffusion indexes are commonly used in financial economics as a leading indicator of turning points in a market's direction.
