"Top and Bottom US Housing Markets for Value and Growth"
Markets in Michigan and Ohio rank among the worst for home value growth and stability, according to a SmartAsset study. The study took stock of 400 US housing markets and the amount the values of homes increased over the past 25 years. Flint, Michigan ranks worst in the country, according to the study. Home values have increased by as little as 70% since 1998 in some of the worst markets, slower than the pace of inflation. The study took into account how many fiscal quarters a home value decreased by more than 5% in the 10 years after a home was purchased.
