Fiserv Lending Solutions' (FLS') Market Performance Gauge depicts
home-price performance among the metropolitan areas highlighted.
The gauge is derived from Case-Shiller Indexes (CSIs(TM)), which are
based upon repeat sales. These indexes are widely accepted as the
most meaningful indicators of market-specific home-price changes
through time. FLS measures home-price changes by aggregate market
change and by low-, middle- and high-price tiers within each market.
Price-tier thresholds are market-specific and are calibrated to
capture one-third of each market pertier. Additional information
regarding these and related measures is available on the Internet
at www.fiservlendingsolutions.com.
