It has been a slow recovery and many home owners are still holding out for a full recovery before they dare put their home on the market.Market prices are very localized and the differential of pricing in zip codes exists. In the luxury real estate market this is especially true. Some homes were made to sell others were made to enjoy.

"We are actually seeing not only a pretty strong performance in home values but also a consistent performance now."While home prices are up 3.2% on the year, Humphries expects growth to moderate next year. The real estate Web site predicts home values will increase 1.7% over the next twelve months because of the high number of homeowners who are underwater on their mortgage.Related: Housing Recovery Stalled By Banks: Harvard AnalystEven though home values continue to rise nationally, it will remain an uneven recovery for some time, notes Humphries. It's all dependent on the market. For example, home prices are up in large metros like New York, Los Angeles, Washington D.C. and Miami but are down considerably in areas like Atlanta and Philadelphia."Real estate has always been very local" except during the housing crash when most markets were in decline, says Humphries. "But now I think the local dynamics are really reasserting themselves." Many political battleground states were also in the red last quarter, including New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Virginia and Wisconsin."It is stunning to me how little we are talking about housing in the presidential election," says Humphries. "I think part of it is because while we are seeing some good news on the housing front overall."Humphries says the housing market is still down 21% from its peak, one reason why the president may not be talking about housing as much as he could be. Moreover, because Obama has pursued centrist housing policies, it makes it difficult for the Republican candidate Mitt Romney to tout policies that very conservative, says Humphries.Of the 252 markets that the Zillow Home Value Forecast follows, 183 have already "hit bottom" and 41 more are expected to hit a low point in 2013."[Overall] it's been a long time since we've seen a housing market this good," Humphries adds.Do you agree?
