Drop in home prices slows
Declines in the Twin Cities market were the smallest in several months, the Case-Shiller report said.
By JIM BUCHTA; STAFF WRITER Star Tribune
Twin Cities home prices late last year fell at a much slower rate than in previous months.
The Standard Poor's/Case-Shiller home price index released Tuesday said local prices dropped 5 percent in November while the nation declined 3.7 percent. Though the Twin Cities was higher than the national average, it was one of the smallest annual declines in several months. Back in May, annual prices were down 11.7 percent.
"In six months that's a pretty decent recovery," said Maureen Maitland, vice president for SP Indices.
Nevertheless, Maitland said she's concerned that several recent month-to-month price declines might result in softer prices. From October to November, for instance, prices were down 0.7 percent.

Mortgage rates to stay low for most of 2012
Rates will likely stay below 5% for at least the first half of the year, industry experts say.
By Amy Hoak of MarketWatch
Mortgage rates should remain low in 2012, especially in the first half of the year, according to the predictions of several industry watchers.
"We may spend the entire year below 5%," said Greg McBride, senior financial analyst for Bankrate.com, referring to the average interest rate for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage.
Rates may even fall to new lows early this year, particularly if the European debt crisis hits a crescendo, McBride added.
