The combination of higher for-sale inventory and ongoing affordability challenges has dampened price appreciation this year.

Homes.com, a CoStar Group leading online residential marketplace, released a new report today analyzing home price trends in June (based on the data collected to date), including price trends across major metros and house types.

Home Price Index

Preliminary price data for June showed a modest 1.3% increase in the median home price nationally, consistent with this year’s trend of moderating home price inflation. The June increase is significantly below the increases that were typical for the month of June in recent years. The median home price rose by about $5,000 from June of last year to $395,000. The median prices of townhomes and condos declined compared to last June.

Moderating price growth reflects a recent uptick in for-sale inventory and ongoing affordability challenges. The increase in inventory is giving buyers more negotiating power. Still, demand is yet to pick up, as home prices remain high after the run-up during the pandemic years, and mortgage rates stay elevated.

Regionally, the Midwest and parts of the Northeast experienced the highest home price appreciation in June compared to June 2024. Five of the 10 major metros with the biggest price increases were in the Midwest. Several key metros in the Northeast also outperformed the nation in June. However, almost a quarter of the 40 largest metros saw outright year-over-year declines in the median home price, with the weakness concentrated in several major Sun Belt metros, struggling with elevated inventory levels and lower demand.

The data shared in this report could change slightly once all home sales are accounted for. Erika Ludvigsen, National Director of Residential Analytics at Homes.com, is available for interviews to provide insights on the data and the residential real estate market in general.
