Knowing the risk, or not, is very relevant because the price paid for the homes in question had the risk already reflected in the price. Once the risk became reality it was already reflected in the price and therefore did not have a negative impact.
On the other hand, the people who paid a premium for homes at HH had no reasonable expectation of what would eventually happen in their neighborhood. That risk was not priced into their purchase price and will definitely have a negative impact on the value of their homes. I guess it will take time to tell exactly how negative it will be, but it will be negative.
