Q2 Homeowner Confidence Survey

Zillow's Q2 2008 Homeowner Confidence Survey queried 1,367 U.S. Homeowners for their take on how the current housing market is affecting their home's value.  Nearly two out of three homeowners (62%) believe their home's value has increased or stayed the same over the past year; however, the reality is that 77% of U.S. homes have declined in value.
