BALDWIN: You own a home that lose (sic) value this year? Well, it happened to a number of Americans. But some cities did see some gains and losses that were a bit smaller than they were just a year ago. Felicia Taylor at the New York Stock Exchange with the results of this new home value survey. Felicia.</s>FELICIA TAYLOR, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Hey, Brooke. As a homeowner myself, I find this a little depressing. By the end of the year, U.S. homeowners will have lost about $500 billion in value on their homes. That's according to a real estate Web site Zillo.com (ph), and that tracks home values in over 150 metro areas. That sounds like a lot, but that's actually the good news. It's nothing compared to what we saw last year, which were over $3.5 trillion in lost value. Zillo's Cheap Economist says home values stabilized, though, significantly in the second half of the year, thanks to historically low mortgage rates and that government tax credit for new home buyers. Not out of the woods, as you well know. Homes in most cities are losing value, and Zillo says values could fall again in the first part of 2010 as mortgage rates creep higher and there are still a great deal of foreclosed homes on the market. Brooke?</s>BALDWIN: Sorry to end on that note, Felicia, but got to go. Felicia Taylor for us covering Wall Street. Thank you. Again, I am Brooke Baldwin. Thanks for sticking around with me.
