CoreLogic®, a leading global property information, analytics and data-enabled solutions provider, released the CoreLogic Home Price Index (HPI™) and HPI Forecast™ for June 2024.
U.S. year-over-year home price gains inched down, reaching 4.7% in June, falling further from the previous month’s 4.9% in what will likely be a continual slide throughout the next year. Although June marked the 149th consecutive month of annual growth, the rate of growth is expected to decrease by more than half of its current rate, with prices expected to grow by only 2.3% on a year-over-year basis next summer.
Month over month, home prices rose just 0.3% from May to June. The CoreLogic HPI Forecast indicates that prices will repeat that pattern, rising by 0.3% again from June 2024 to July 2024. In the years prior to pandemic, monthly gains from May to July generally saw stronger increases. The cooling of monthly gains during the spring home-buying season reflects the impact of high mortgage rates on home buyers’ budgets and constraint on affordability.
While no states posted annual home price declines in June, only one – South Dakota – posted double-digit growth, coming in at 10%. Behind South Dakota, the other states with the highest increases year over year were New Jersey (9.3%), Rhode Island (9.2%), Connecticut (8.5%), and New Hampshire (8.2%).
