Report: 'Perfect Housing Storm'

More bad news about housing where you live: The Greater Boston Housing Report Card for 2006-2007 gives the region a broadly low grade on the housing front here.

In fact, the survey says some big stresses — declining home values, a troubled mortgage market, flat or falling incomes, and a drop in housing starts — all coalesce to form what the authors call a "perfect housing storm."
