House prices in Los Angeles and Orange counties rose in November at the slowest rate since the last housing slump ended in 2012, according to a new housing report.

U.S. home prices are at "high tide," but they will top out well before they inflate to the dangerous highs seen during the 2006 housing boom, according to a recent study.

Dallas-area home price gains slightly outperformed the national average in November.

Rising mortgage rates are helping decelerate home price growth, which is expected to slow further during the coming year, according to CoreLogic. Consumer uncertainty in the economy due to stock market declines may also weaken house values.

Southern California home sales fell sharply in November, deepening a retreat from a sustained housing boom that placed home ownership out of reach for many.

Home prices in 20 U.S. cities slowed in October for a seventh consecutive month, extending the longest streak since 2014, a sign of waning demand amid higher mortgage rates and elevated property values.

CoreLogic is exiting its loan origination software and default management operations over the next 24 months and instead accelerated plans to transform its appraisal management company unit.

Rising rents combined with growing housing inventory could lead to increased purchase mortgage originations in the near future.

Other than in areas hit by natural disasters, delinquency rates are falling with help from a healthier labor market, but a rise in riskier lending habits could signal trouble for borrowers should housing conditions change, according to CoreLogic.

As home value appreciation slowed, gains in home equity for the third quarter fell to the lowest level in two years, according to CoreLogic's homeowner equity report.
