SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- First American LoanPerformance, a member of The First American Corporation family of companies and a leader in residential mortgage data and analytics for the mortgage industry and Wall Street, today announced the release of its September 2007 LoanPerformance Home Price Index (HPI).

The LoanPerformance HPI provides a comprehensive set of monthly home price indices and median sales prices covering 7,416 ZIP codes, 956 Core Based Statistical Areas (CBSA) and 659 counties located in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The indices, which are the most comprehensive available in the industry, are reported as early as five weeks after each month ends.
"LoanPerformance's HPI continues to track the nation's housing market's progress. This latest release reveals that 17 states show a negative home price appreciation over the past 12 months," said Damien Weldon, vice president, collateral and prepayment analytics for First American LoanPerformance. "However, most states continue to have stable home values while states like Wyoming, Utah and North Carolina show a moderate growth in prices," added Weldon. Click here for a state-by-state map.
