The average sales price of new homes in the United States experienced a slight decrease in 2024, dropping to 512,2000 U.S. dollars from the peak of 521,500 U.S. dollars in 2022. This decline came after years of substantial price increases, with the average price surpassing 400,000 U.S. dollars for the first time in 2021. The recent cooling in the housing market reflects broader economic trends and changing consumer sentiment towards homeownership. Factors influencing home prices and affordability The rapid rise in home prices over the past few years has been driven by several factors, including historically low mortgage rates and increased demand during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the market has since slowed down, with the number of home sales declining by over two million between 2021 and 2023. This decline can be attributed to rising mortgage rates and decreased affordability. The Housing Affordability Index hit a record low of 98.1 in 2023, indicating that the median-income family could no longer afford a median-priced home. Future outlook for the housing market Despite the recent cooling, experts forecast a potential recovery in the coming years. The Freddie Mac House Price Index showed a growth of 6.5 percent in 2023, which is still above the long-term average of 4.4 percent since 1990. However, homebuyer sentiment remains low across all age groups, with people aged 45 to 64 expressing the most pessimistic outlook. The median sales price of existing homes is expected to increase slightly until 2025, suggesting that affordability challenges may persist in the near future.

The number of U.S. home sales in the United States declined in 2024, after soaring in 2021. A total of four million transactions of existing homes, including single-family, condo, and co-ops, were completed in 2024, down from 6.12 million in 2021. According to the forecast, the housing market is forecast to head for recovery in 2025, despite transaction volumes expected to remain below the long-term average. Why have home sales declined? The housing boom during the coronavirus pandemic has demonstrated that being a homeowner is still an integral part of the American dream. Nevertheless, sentiment declined in the second half of 2022 and Americans across all generations agreed that the time was not right to buy a home. A combination of factors has led to house prices rocketing and making homeownership unaffordable for the average buyer. A survey among owners and renters found that the high home prices and unfavorable economic conditions were the two main barriers to making a home purchase. People who would like to purchase their own home need to save up a deposit, have a good credit score, and a steady and sufficient income to be approved for a mortgage. In 2022, mortgage rates experienced the most aggressive increase in history, making the total cost of homeownership substantially higher. Are U.S. home prices expected to fall? The median sales price of existing homes stood at 413,000 U.S. dollars in 2024 and was forecast to increase slightly until 2026.

Purpose and brief description The house price index measures the inflation in the residential property market. The house price index reflects price developments for all residential properties purchased by households (apartments, terraced houses, detached houses), regardless of whether they are new or existing. Only market prices are taken into account, so self-build homes are excluded. The price of the land is included in the price of the properties. Population Real estate transactions involving residential properties Periodicity Quarterly. Release calendar Results available 3 months after the reference period Definitions House price index: The house price index measures changes in the prices of new or existing dwellings, regardless of their use or previous owner. Inflation - house price index: Inflation is defined as the ratio between the value of a given quarter and that of the same quarter of the previous year. Weighting - house price index: Weighting based on the national accounts (gross fixed capital formation in housing) and the total number of real estate transactions involving residential properties. Type of dwelling according to the classification set out in Regulation (EU) No 93/2013 on housing price indices. Technical information The house price index measures the price evolution of real estate prices on the market of private property. The index follows price changes of new or existing residential real estate purchased by households, irrespective of their purpose (letting or owner-occupying). Only market prices are taken into account. Houses built by their owners are therefore not included. The price of the building plot is included in the house price. The house price index is based on real estate transaction data from the General Administration of the Patrimonial Documentation of the FPS Finances. The prices used are those included in the deeds of sale. Given the time between the date on which the preliminary sales agreement is signed and the date on which the deed is executed (between three and four months), this index measures the price evolution with a delay compared to the actual date on which the sales price is set. This delay is inherent to the data source. The house price index is calculated by the European Union Member States, Norway and Iceland. Eurostat calculates the index for the Euro area (as well as for the European Union as a whole) using the harmonised indices of the Member States. Given the role of the housing market in the economic and financial crisis of 2008, the house price index was included in the indicators used in the procedure to prevent and correct macroeconomic imbalances in the European Union. The house price index is calculated under the European Regulation 2016/792 on harmonised indices of consumer prices and the house price index and 2023/1470 laying down the methodological and technical specifications as regards the house price index and the owner-occupied housing price index. Data are available from 2005 onward for Belgium as well as for the European Union and the majority of European countries. The house price index can be broken down by new houses and existing houses. The weights of these two items in the overall index are determined by the gross fixed capital formation in houses (for the new houses) and the total value of transactions of the previous year (for the existing houses). Until 2013, the house price index of new houses was roughly estimated based on the output price index in the construction sector. Since 2014, it is also based on real estate transaction data. House price index for existing houses is available per region since 2010. The data have therefore been completely reviewed when the results for the fourth quarter of 2023 were published in March 2024. Since the houses that are put up for sale differ from one quarter to another, the changes in characteristics are processed with hedonic regression models to eliminate price fluctuations due to changes in characteristics of the properties sold. These models aim to estimate the theoretical price based on the characteristics and location of the houses sold. The index is then calculated based on changes in the average prices observed and adjusted by a factor depending on the differences in quality observed between dwellings sold during the different periods.
