It's not a national market but a regional one...these were some interesting numbers

What I found interesting is that when you take out the short sales and bank owned homes, the prices in California actually ticked up! 

 

April Home Price Index

Overall home prices fell by 7.5% in April over the same period a year earlier, according to CoreLogic. If you exclude distressed sales, which are short sales and sales of homes owned by a lender or bank, prices were off just 0.5%. Click on column headers to sort data.
