House Price Growth Nationally Slips to
Slowest Pace in Over a Year
—Slowdown Likely to Continue in the Near
Term, but a Re-Acceleration May be on the Horizon, says Chief
Economist Mark Fleming—
First American Data & Analytics, a leading national
provider of property-centric information, risk management and
valuation solutions and a division of First American Financial
Corporation (NYSE: FAF), today released its September 2024 Home
Price Index (HPI) report. The report tracks home price changes
less than four weeks behind real time at the national, state and
metropolitan (Core-Based Statistical Area) levels and includes
metropolitan price tiers that segment sale transactions into
starter, mid and luxury tiers. The full report can be found
here.

Chief Economist National HPI Analysis:
“Annual house price appreciation nationally slowed for the ninth
consecutive month, falling to the slowest pace since the summer of
2023,” said Mark Fleming, chief economist at First American. “While
home prices reached a new record high in September, the pace of
growth continues to slow. Lower mortgage rates have improved
affordability, which will likely stimulate demand in the coming
months, especially if rates continue to ease. If housing supply
does not increase amid that potential increased demand, it’s
possible that price appreciation could accelerate again.”

Metro Area: September 2023 to September 2024
The First American Data & Analytics HPI segments home price
changes at the metropolitan level into three price tiers based on
local market sales data: starter tier, which represents home sales
prices at the bottom third of the market price distribution;
mid-tier, which represents home sales prices in the middle third of
the market price distribution; and the luxury tier, which
represents home sales prices in the top third of the market price
distribution.

“Price appreciation in 11 metros outpaced the national 3.9
percent annual increase, and house prices increased year over year
in most markets we track as well,” said Fleming. “The ongoing price
pressures in the starter home price tier across many markets
highlights strong demand from first-time home buyers now armed with
improved house-buying power, who face limited inventory at this
price point.”

First American Data & Analytics HPI Methodology
The First American Data & Analytics HPI report measures
single-family home prices, including distressed sales, with indices
updated monthly beginning in 1980 through the month of the current
report. HPI data is provided at the national, state and CBSA levels
and includes preliminary index estimates for the month prior to the
report (i.e. the preliminary result of July transactions is
reported in August). The most recent index results are subject to
revision as data from more transactions become available.
The HPI uses a repeat-sales methodology, which measures price
changes for the same property over time using more than 46 million
paired transactions to generate the indices. In non-disclosure
states, the HPI utilizes a combination of public sales records, MLS
sold and active listings, and appraisal data to estimate house
prices. This comprehensive approach is particularly effective in
areas where there is limited availability of accurate sale prices,
such as non-disclosure states. Property type, price and location
data are used to create more refined market segment indices. Real
Estate-Owned transactions are not included.
