HOME PRICES END THEIR DOUBLE-DIGIT INCREASE

Home prices ended their double-digit increasing streak just 2 weeks shy of a full year at this pace.

The housing market is still firmly in seller’s market territory, but buyers shopping for a home this fall are likely to find much better conditions than last fall.

Weekly Housing Trends Key Findings:

The median listing price grew at 8.9 percent over last year, marking the end of a 50-week streak of double-digit price growth. The good news for buyers is that the pace of price growth is now roughly half of April’s 17.2% year over year pace. The good news for home owners and potential sellers is that despite slowing, home prices continue to grow. The median home listing price hit a record-high in June at $385,000. We expect prices to ease as we head into fall, as they have historically, which means we may not see new all-time highs, but are likely to see the highest prices ever for the fall and winter season..…READ MORE
