US Housing market slips into Depression territory

Is it just giving up the rapid gains of a quick inflationary bubble or is this going to be a long term trend?

Quote:
Home values have fallen 26 percent since their peak in June 2006, worse than the 25.9-percent decline seen during the Depression years between 1928 and 1933, Zillow reported.

November marked the 53rd consecutive month (4 ½ years) that home values have fallen.

What?s worse, it?s not over yet: Home values are expected to continue to slide as inventories pile up, and likely won't recover until the job market improves.
