Key information about House Prices Growth

• US house prices grew 3.3% YoY in Sep 2025, following an increase of 4.1% YoY in the previous quarter.
• YoY growth data is updated quarterly, available from Mar 1992 to Sep 2025, with an average growth rate of -12.4%.
• House price data reached an all-time high of 17.7% in Sep 2021 and a record low of -12.4% in Dec 2008.

Global house prices experienced a significant shift in 2022, with advanced economies seeing a notable decline after a prolonged period of growth. The real house price index (adjusted for inflation) for advanced economies peaked at nearly *** index points in early 2022 before falling to around ***** points by the second quarter of 2023. In the second quarter of 2025, the index reached ***** points. This represents a reversal of the upward trend that had characterized the housing market for roughly a decade. Likewise, real house prices in emerging economies declined after reaching a high of ***** points in the third quarter of 2021. What is behind the slowdown? Inflation and slow economic growth have been the primary drivers for the cooling of the housing market. Secondly, the growing gap between incomes and house prices since 2012 has decreased the affordability of homeownership. Last but not least, homebuyers in 2024 faced dramatically higher mortgage interest rates, further contributing to worsening sentiment and declining transactions. Some markets continue to grow While many countries witnessed a deceleration in house price growth in 2022, some markets continued to see substantial increases. Turkey, in particular, stood out with a nominal increase in house prices of over ** percent in the first quarter of 2025. Other countries that recorded a two-digit growth include North Macedonia and Russia. When accounting for inflation, the three countries with the fastest growing residential prices in early 2025 were North Macedonia, Portugal, and Bulgaria.

In this Economic Commentary , we compare characteristics of the 2000–2006 house-price boom that preceded the Great Recession to the house-price boom that began in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. These two episodes of high house-price growth have important differences, including the behavior of rental rates, the dynamics of housing supply and demand, and the state of the mortgage market. The absence of changes in fundamentals during the 2000s is consistent with the literature emphasizing house-price beliefs during this prior episode. In contrast to during the 2000s boom, changes in fundamentals (including rent and demand growth) played a more dominant role in the 2020s house-price boom.

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 U.S. housing market has slowed, after ** consecutive years of rising home prices. In 2021, house prices surged by an unprecedented ** percent, marking the highest increase on record. However, the market has since cooled, with the Freddie Mac House Price Index showing more modest growth between 2022 and 2024. In 2024, home prices increased by *** percent. That was lower than the long-term average of *** percent since 1990. Impact of mortgage rates on homebuying The recent cooling in the housing market can be partly attributed to rising mortgage rates. After reaching a record low of **** percent in 2021, the average annual rate on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage more than doubled in 2023. This significant increase has made homeownership less affordable for many potential buyers, contributing to a substantial decline in home sales. Despite these challenges, forecasts suggest a potential recovery in the coming years. How much does it cost to buy a house in the U.S.? In 2023, the median sales price of an existing single-family home reached a record high of over ******* U.S. dollars. Newly built homes were even pricier, despite a slight decline in the median sales price in 2023. Naturally, home prices continue to vary significantly across the country, with West Virginia being the most affordable state for homebuyers.

A commonly accepted threshold for affordable housing costs at the household level is 30% of a household's income. Accordingly, a household is considered cost burdened if it pays more than 30% of its income on housing. Households paying more than 50% are considered severely cost burdened. These thresholds apply to both homeowners and renters.

The Housing Affordability indicator only measures cost burden among the region's households, and not the supply of affordable housing. The directionality of cost burden trends can be impacted by changes in both income and housing supply. If lower income households are priced out of a county or the region, it would create a downward trend in cost burden, but would not reflect a positive trend for an inclusive housing market.

House prices grew year-on-year in most states in the U.S. in the first quarter of 2025. Hawaii was the only exception, with a decline of **** percent. The annual appreciation for single-family housing in the U.S. was **** percent, while in Rhode Island—the state where homes appreciated the most—the increase was ******percent. How have home prices developed in recent years? House price growth in the U.S. has been going strong for years. In 2025, the median sales price of a single-family home exceeded ******* U.S. dollars, up from ******* U.S. dollars five years ago. One of the factors driving house prices was the cost of credit. The record-low federal funds effective rate allowed mortgage lenders to set mortgage interest rates as low as *** percent. With interest rates on the rise, home buying has also slowed, causing fluctuations in house prices. Why are house prices growing? Many markets in the U.S. are overheated because supply has not been able to keep up with demand. How many homes enter the housing market depends on the construction output, whereas the availability of existing homes for purchase depends on many other factors, such as the willingness of owners to sell. Furthermore, growing investor appetite in the housing sector means that prospective homebuyers have some extra competition to worry about. In certain metros, for example, the share of homes bought by investors exceeded ** percent in 2025.

House Price Prediction Dataset.

The dataset contains 2000 rows of house-related data, representing various features that could influence house prices. Below, we discuss key aspects of the dataset, which include its structure, the choice of features, and potential use cases for analysis.

1. Dataset Features

The dataset is designed to capture essential attributes for predicting house prices, including:

Area: Square footage of the house, which is generally one of the most important predictors of price. Bedrooms & Bathrooms: The number of rooms in a house significantly affects its value. Homes with more rooms tend to be priced higher. Floors: The number of floors in a house could indicate a larger, more luxurious home, potentially raising its price. Year Built: The age of the house can affect its condition and value. Newly built houses are generally more expensive than older ones. Location: Houses in desirable locations such as downtown or urban areas tend to be priced higher than those in suburban or rural areas. Condition: The current condition of the house is critical, as well-maintained houses (in 'Excellent' or 'Good' condition) will attract higher prices compared to houses in 'Fair' or 'Poor' condition. Garage: Availability of a garage can increase the price due to added convenience and space. Price: The target variable, representing the sale price of the house, used to train machine learning models to predict house prices based on the other features.

2. Feature Distributions

Area Distribution: The area of the houses in the dataset ranges from 500 to 5000 square feet, which allows analysis across different types of homes, from smaller apartments to larger luxury houses. Bedrooms and Bathrooms: The number of bedrooms varies from 1 to 5, and bathrooms from 1 to 4. This variance enables analysis of homes with different sizes and layouts. Floors: Houses in the dataset have between 1 and 3 floors. This feature could be useful for identifying the influence of multi-level homes on house prices. Year Built: The dataset contains houses built from 1900 to 2023, giving a wide range of house ages to analyze the effects of new vs. older construction. Location: There is a mix of urban, suburban, downtown, and rural locations. Urban and downtown homes may command higher prices due to proximity to amenities. Condition: Houses are labeled as 'Excellent', 'Good', 'Fair', or 'Poor'. This feature helps model the price differences based on the current state of the house. Price Distribution: Prices range between $50,000 and $1,000,000, offering a broad spectrum of property values. This range makes the dataset appropriate for predicting a wide variety of housing prices, from affordable homes to luxury properties.

3. Correlation Between Features

A key area of interest is the relationship between various features and house price: Area and Price: Typically, a strong positive correlation is expected between the size of the house (Area) and its price. Larger homes are likely to be more expensive. Location and Price: Location is another major factor. Houses in urban or downtown areas may show a higher price on average compared to suburban and rural locations. Condition and Price: The condition of the house should show a positive correlation with price. Houses in better condition should be priced higher, as they require less maintenance and repair. Year Built and Price: Newer houses might command a higher price due to better construction standards, modern amenities, and less wear-and-tear, but some older homes in good condition may retain historical value. Garage and Price: A house with a garage may be more expensive than one without, as it provides extra storage or parking space.

4. Potential Use Cases

The dataset is well-suited for various machine learning and data analysis applications, including:

House Price Prediction: Using regression techniques, this dataset can be used to build a model to predict house prices based on the available features. Feature Importance Analysis: By using techniques such as feature importance ranking, data scientists can determine which features (e.g., location, area, or condition) have the greatest impact on house prices. Clustering: Clustering techniques like k-means could help identify patterns in the data, such as grouping houses into segments based on their characteristics (e.g., luxury homes, affordable homes). Market Segmentation: The dataset can be used to perform segmentation by location, price range, or house type to analyze trends in specific sub-markets, like luxury vs. affordable housing. Time-Based Analysis: By studying how house prices vary with the year built or the age of the house, analysts can derive insights into the trends of older vs. newer homes.
