The blog 24/7 Wall St. has identified the ten metropolitan areas where home prices are projected to increase the most from the second quarter of 2011 to the second quarter of 2012.
Six of these ten metropolitan areas are also among the top 50 areas that experienced the worst housing prices declines from the second quarter of 2008 to the second quarter of 2011.
