Technical analysis is no longer just for Stocks and Commodities trading. The S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Index was created by Robert Shiller of Project Syndicate blogging fame. Not only can you create your own custom index of real estate prices both regionally and nationally, but also chart where housing prices were historically.
For example, the most recent report, released in spring 2008, in home-buying time, says that prices in Las Vegas are down 20.76 percent back to their June 2004 pricing levels. So, if you are looking for real estate timing indicators, visit http://www.macromarkets.com/.

The above chart was created from a free down loadable excel file from macromarkets.com. Here I used, Los Angeles as the S&P/Case-Shiller Index and San Diego, Las Vegas and Phoenix for tier markets. This is an excellent tool to review the past real estate cycle and their correlations.
