-2.7%

Latest News

Existing-home sales decreased by 2.7% in June. Month-over-month sales declined in the Northeast, Midwest, and South, and rose modestly in the West. Year-over-year, sales fell in the Northeast and West, while rising in the Midwest and South.

According to NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun, “Multiple years of undersupply are driving the record high home price. Home construction continues to lag population growth. This is holding back first-time home buyers from entering the market. More supply is needed to increase the share of first-time homebuyers in the coming years even though some markets appear to have a temporary oversupply at the moment.”

The Existing-Home Sales data measures sales and prices of existing single-family homes for the nation overall, and gives breakdowns for the West, Midwest, South, and Northeast regions of the country. These figures include condos and co-ops, in addition to single-family homes.

Existing-Home Sales for July 2025 will be released on Thursday, August 21, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern.
