- Annual Price Growth: The S&P Cotality Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index recorded a 1.4% annual increase in October 2025, slightly up from 1.3% in September, indicating a weak recovery but still below the 5.1% average growth seen in 2024.
- Significant Regional Divergence: Chicago led the 20 cities with a 5.8% annual increase, followed by New York at 5.0% and Cleveland at 4.1%, while Tampa experienced a 4.2% decline, highlighting the resilience of traditional markets.
- Weak Monthly Performance: Sixteen cities saw month-over-month price declines in October, as high mortgage rates exert pressure on the market, leading to reduced demand and limited price momentum.
- Inflation Impact: Despite the annual price increase, it lags behind an estimated 3.1% consumer price index, indicating a decline in real home values under inflationary pressures, which may hinder future price growth.
