A comparison of current indicators with those at the end of the Great Recession gives insights into what has changed for the housing market and what the future could hold.

A new report compared home price appreciation at the entry-level of the housing market with prices in the high tier. Here’s what it found.

A recent forecast by an enterprise risk management and collateral valuation service shows property values appreciating across the U.S. But where is the appreciation rate rising most rapidly, and what metro areas are expected to see an actual drop in value? Find out here.

Is the foreclosure crisis finally over? While many numbers point to a decline in delinquencies, the market might need to brace for a slight increase by early 2020 according to a report on the state of the U.S. housing market.

In a recent report, residential market values were predicted to continue their upward trend for the next 12 months in every market. See which metros will be experiencing the most—and least—appreciation.

According to a new report issued on Friday, home price appreciation rates are disparate between the nation’s most and least expensive cities—and that gap is only widening. While 16 percent of U.S. markets have seen housing prices jump 40 percent since the year 2000, another 30 percent of cities actually saw prices decline over the same period. Despite the discrepancy, nominal prices rose in 97 out of the nation’s 100 biggest metro areas last year due to high demand and tightening supply. As a result, affordability is on the downslope across the nation; an estimated 19 million households spent more than half of their income on housing.

A recent report from FHFA stated that home prices are up more than 6 percent year-over-year, with many states seeing double-digit growth.

New data shows a considerable drop in the number of homes available for purchase, as well as a significant year-over-year increase in home prices.
