The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller Home Price Index tracks changes in US residential real estate prices using a repeat-sales methodology, comparing the sale price of the same individual home across multiple transactions over time, which corrects for the changing mix of homes sold in a given period in a way that a simple median sale price cannot. Developed by economists Karl Case and Robert Shiller in the 1980s and published monthly by S&P Dow Jones Indices since the early 2000s, the index is produced both as a 20-city composite tracking major metropolitan areas and as a US national index, and it became particularly prominent as the benchmark gauge of the mid-2000s housing bubble and its subsequent collapse.
