5 Percent drop for Denver in Home Index

Home prices in Denver fell 5 percent during the past year, the Standard & Poor’s/Case-Shiller home price index showed. Denver also shows a drop of 1.1 percent between January and February, and a 0.1 percent decline between February and March. The complete 20-city index, published Tuesday, was down 14.4 percent year-over-year. Las Vegas was in the worst shape, with a 25.9 percent decline, followed by Miami at 24.6 percent and Phoenix at 23 percent. Charlotte, N.C., was the only market to show an appreciation in home prices, at 0.8 percent.

The index for Denver homes was at 127.43 as of March. The induces have a base value of 100 in January 2000, so Denver’s current index translates to a 27.43 percent appreciation for a typical home since then.
