The PMI Group has come out with their summer analysis of the metropolitan regions that have the highest risk of housing losing it's value in the next two years. The Inland Empire region of Southern California is leading the way followed closely by Phoenix and Las Vegas. All 3 of these regions experienced huge housing gains during 2004 - 2005 so expectations of a flat or negative period are not expected.
PMI Group is one of the largest underwriters of Private Mortgage Insurance so it is in their best interest to know and understand markets and calibrate their PMI rates to counter the risk that is faced.
