WOW! HOME OWNERSHIP ANNUAL GAINS HIGHEST SINCE 2017

DateSunday, February 28, 2021 at 5:16PM

The prices in California are consistently through the roof! This type of information is always interesting to me.  From what i found reviewing the results from the S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller Data that was released, it shows me that the Rate of Home Price Increases across the U.S. has continued to go through roof!.  See below:

YEAR-OVER-YEAR The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price NSA Index, covering all nine U.S. census divisions, reported a 8.3% annual gain in January, up from 4.6% in the previous month. The 10-City Composite annual increase came in at 10.2%, up from 3.7% in the previous month. The 20-City Composite posted a 13.6% year-over-year gain, up from 8.1% in the previous month. Las Vegas, Phoenix and Minneapolis reported the highest year-over-year gains among the 20 cities. In January, Las Vegas led the way with a 15.5% year-over-year price increase, followed by Phoenix with a 10.5% increase and Minneapolis with a 8.1% increase. Only one of the 20 cities reported greater price increases in the year ending January 2020 versus the year ending December 2019.
