Freshness note: This observation is older than the normal release window for a quarterly series. Treat it as the latest available reading, not a current estimate.

The median home price sits at $411K, up 25% from six years ago but essentially flat over the past year as the market stabilizes after years of wild swings. Prices peaked around $443K in late 2022, pulled back through 2023 and 2024, and are now hovering in a narrow range with no clear directional momentum.

Why it matters.

If you're shopping for a home, this sideways market means less bidding pressure than the frenzy of 2021-2022, but prices remain elevated compared to pre-pandemic levels. For homeowners and investors, the stability suggests the worst volatility is behind us, though gains from here won't be automatic.
