Purchase price of the house = $360,000

Price of the house after 1 year = $253,800

Percent decrease in the value of the house = \frac{Purchase price of the house - Price of the house after 1 year}{Purchase price of the house} * 100

⇒ Percent decrease in the value of the house = \frac{360,000 - 253,800}{360,000} * 100

⇒ Percent decrease in the value of the house = \frac{106,200}{360,000} * 100

⇒ Percent decrease in the value of the house = 29.5%

Hence, the price of the house decreased by 29.5% over an year.
