The second graph is from CoreLogic. The year-over-year comparison has been positive for thirty nine consecutive months suggesting house prices bottomed early in 2012 on a national basis (the bump in 2010 was related to the tax credit).The YoY increase had been moving sideways over most of the last year, but has picked up a little recently.
