Ah, I figured that underline was for emphasis. Sadly your source doesn't cite its own sources. It's pretty rare to see a home both for sale and for rent, so you'd likely be comparing oranges for sale with apples for rent. A lot of the magic of Case-Shiller is in finding valid comparables over time, so I'm hoping someone has put together a similar time regional series for rents themselves. Maybe not -- it's not like there's a huge market for derivatives on rental properties.
