—House Price Growth Nationally Likely to End the Year Not Too Hot, Not Too Cold, says Chief Economist Mark Fleming—

SANTA ANA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- First American Data & Analytics, a leading national provider of property-centric information, risk management and valuation solutions and a division of First American Financial Corporation (NYSE: FAF), today released its October 2024 Home Price Index (HPI) report. The report tracks home price changes less than four weeks behind real time at the national, state and metropolitan (Core-Based Statistical Area) levels and includes metropolitan price tiers that segment sale transactions into starter, mid and luxury tiers.

Highlights

  • House prices nationally are now 54.2 percent higher compared to pre-pandemic levels (February 2020).
  • House price growth reported in last month’s HPI for August 2024 to September 2024 was revised down 0.08 percentage points, from +0.1 percent to +0.02 percent.

Chief Economist Analysis:

“National annual house price appreciation stabilized in October, ending a nine-month streak of annual deceleration,” said Mark Fleming, chief economist at First American. “While mortgage rates slid downward through September, they unexpectedly rebounded in October, wiping out the short-lived affordability boost from lower mortgage rates. As a result, potential home buyers may hit pause, dampening home buying activity through the rest of 2024. Heading toward the new year, house price growth seems poised to maintain a steady, balanced pace—neither too hot, nor too cold.”

October 2024 Local Market Price Tier Highlights

The First American Data & Analytics HPI segments home price changes at the metropolitan level into three price tiers based on local market sales data: starter tier, which represents home sales prices at the bottom third of the market price distribution; mid-tier, which represents home sales prices in the middle third of the market price distribution; and the luxury tier, which represents home sales prices in the top third of the market price distribution.

“House price trends vary significantly by market, and annual price growth in October was slowest in markets in the South and West,” said Fleming. “Affordability challenges, and in some markets a bump in inventory relative to demand, are keeping a lid on price appreciation.”

First American Data & Analytics HPI Methodology

The First American Data & Analytics HPI report measures single-family home prices, including distressed sales, with indices updated monthly beginning in 1980 through the month of the current report. HPI data is provided at the national, state and CBSA levels and includes preliminary index estimates for the month prior to the report (i.e. the preliminary result of July transactions is reported in August). The most recent index results are subject to revision as data from more transactions become available.

The HPI uses a repeat-sales methodology, which measures price changes for the same property over time using more than 46 million paired transactions to generate the indices. In non-disclosure states, the HPI utilizes a combination of public sales records, MLS sold and active listings, and appraisal data to estimate house prices. This comprehensive approach is particularly effective in areas where there is limited availability of accurate sale prices, such as non-disclosure states. Property type, price and location data are used to create more refined market segment indices. Real Estate-Owned transactions are not included.
