Home Price Growth Leads the Nation
The CoreLogic February 2014 Home Price Index Report ranks Inland Southern California as the number one region for year-over-year home price growth which far outpaced the national average. Home prices in the region have increased 22.2% since February 2013 compared to the 12.2% nationwide gain.
The Inland region was followed closely by the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale region which experienced an 18.8% increase in home prices. California leads the nation in the top 5 States with the largest year-over-year appreciation with 19.8% growth, followed by Nevada, Georgia, Oregon and Michigan.
