U.S. Housing Update

Time for my quarterly update of the housing situation in the United States, using the National Association of Realtors’ (NAR) database for existing home prices.

This time we look back at the second half of the year. Spring is around the corner so activity will no doubt pick up, as should prices. 

For 2017, the average median home price was up 5.8% over 2016. 

The following is the national median home price.

2017

July....$258,100

Aug…$177,200
Sept…$175,900
Oct….$172,000
Nov…$170,000
Dec…$170,500

Using the NAR’s data, the median average for a full year was as follows.

2004…$185,200
2005…$219,600
2006…$221,900*
2007…$219,000
2008…$198,100
2009…$172,500
2010…$172,900
2011…$166,100
2012....$176,800
2013....$197,100
2014....$208,300
2015....$222,400
2016....$233,800
2017....$247,300 

*Existing home prices first peaked in July 2006 at $230,200, according to NAR. You can play around with the numbers but generally you’re talking there was then a ‘formal’ decline of 30%, peak to trough, nationally, after the summer of ’06, before the big rebound. Today we are back up to $263,300 (this past June).
