National home prices declined once again in the second quarter of this year compared to the same three monthslast year, but the pace of decline appears to be slowing, according to the S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Index data released today.

Home prices nationwide dropped 14.9 percent year-over-year in the second quarter. But the year-over-year drop in the first quarter was 19.1 percent, according to the data. The report reveals “hints of an upward turn,” said David Blitzer, chairman of S&P’s index committee.
