National Real Estate Market – May 2014
On a national level, home prices are up 5.4% from last month and are up 7.7% from the same time last year. The median sales price is $191,600. Fewer homes are selling on the national level as home prices continue to rise. Affordability, tight credit, and a diminishing supply of available homes are starting to slow down the purchase market activity.
National home prices are still down about 21% from their peak in 2006.
Foreclosure sales continue to decline and are down 37% from the spring of 2013.
Interest rates are at 4.33% and are projected to steadily increase as the Fed diminishes its quantitative easing program later this year. Home prices are also projected to continue rising due to fewer foreclosure sales and fewer homes on the market.
