I heard this today in seeking more clarity from the Lord,
“In 3 years what has been submerged will begin to emerge. This is a comfort to trust in Me to keep you in your home with air to spare and you will live as if not under water. Breathe and live and know I am holding you in the palms of My hands.”
An image that immediately came to mind after I wrote the above is the following scripture. I had not remembered this event covered three days. I believe the number “three” is not a coincidence:
Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that darkness will spread over Egypt--darkness that can be felt.” So Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and total darkness covered all Egypt for three days. No one could see anyone else or leave his place for three days. Yet all the Israelites had light in the places where they lived. Exodus 10:21-23 (NIV)
Update as of September 27, 2012:
When I received this vision and prophecy the real estate market was still declining and the outlook both by industry pundits like Case-Shiller and the press was very negative. However, in just one year from this prophecy home prices are now rising. I believe this prophecy is in motion and will occur by fall 2014 as stated.

Update as of October 27, 2013:
This prophecy, given as the market was declining and a half
a year before the national real estate market fell to new lows, is already
starting to come to pass this year. I took hope from the prophecy that real
estate values would begin recovering from being underwater in a relatively
short time frame of 3 years, by fall 2014, despite the widespread carnage of
values nationally. Please note the prophecy stated, “what has been submerged
will begin to emerge,” thus, it is not a promise that every single underwater
home will emerge. It is a promise,
however, of a recovery and restoration for many if they hold on and trust in the Lord, “This is a
comfort to trust in Me to keep you in your home with air to spare and you will
live as if not under water. Breathe and live and know I am holding you in the
palms of My hands.”
The S&P Case-Shiller Home Price Index showed, “as of May 2013, average home prices across the United States are back to their spring 2004 levels…. The recovery from the March 2012 lows is 15.9% and 16.5% for the 10-City and 20-City Composites.”

Zillow writes in their August 20, 2013 press release, “All 30 of the largest metro areas covered by Zillow registered both monthly and annual appreciation in July, and all have hit their bottom and are expected to show appreciation in the next 12 months.”

Update as of November 22, 2013:
“Fast-paced price increases have helped bring many
underwater homeowners afloat. In the third quarter, 1.4 million homeowners rose
to the surface as their home values once again outranked their equity…. The
negative equity rate now stands at 21 percent, down about one-third from its
peak of 31.4 percent.”
Update as of October 18, 2014:
I thought it time for an update since it is 3 years from
this prophecy. “According to the second
quarter Zillow Negative Equity Report, the national negative equity rate
continued to decline in Q2 2014, falling to 17 percent, down 14.4 percentage
points from its peak (31.4 percent) in the first quarter of 2012. Negative
equity has fallen for nine consecutive quarters as home values have risen.” Negative equity, aka homes under water, have
fallen from 31.4 percent to 17 percent, almost half the homes have emerged from
being under water.

Update as of September 8, 2015:
The word I received from the Lord on October 19, 2011 said
that “In 3 years what has been submerged will begin to emerge” and I commented,
“I had the impression not all homes that have been underwater will emerge in
three years but that is the beginning, when the waters that have submerged
homes will begin lowering and eventually, over time, disappearing.”
Here is a telling graph from Zillow that the percentage of negative
equity (i.e. underwater homes) actually stayed high between 30% and 31% about 9 more months from
October 2011 through the first half of 2012 (as nationwide home prices were still declining in value). The percentage of negative equity homes didn’t start dropping substantially until the second half of 2012. Negative equity (underwater homes) have
declined from about 31% of all homes at the time of the October 2011 prophecy to
14.4% recently in the second quarter of 2015.
This Zillow chart shows the prophecy coming to pass. God is good!
