Oil Prices and Home Prices

With the ridiculous price of a barrell of oil and gasoline, do you think prices of homes will continue to drop over the next 12-15 months? I happen to believe that because of the economy and the price of oil and gas, home prices here on long island are going to be in for a 10-15% drop in value. Any opinions?

I just read something today that the home prices are expected to drop at least 25%
I'll take a look and see if I can find it.

I think that the economy in general is going to hurt home sales. People don't have as much extra income and with other things going up it's harder to save for a house or be able to pay a mortgage.
I know so many people who have switched to using CC's for gas purchases alone...it's going to end up causing them problems down the road.
