In a typical seasonal trend, the monthly median house sales price in October 2023 declined slightly from September - but was up 3% year-over-year.
Long-term, annual median house sales prices since 1980, with an estimate for 2023 YTD.
Q3 median house price appreciation since 1990. Over the long term, home-price appreciation has far outpaced inflation.

As a percentage of total sales, all-cash purchases remain at their highest level in 9 years. These buyers are less concerned about interest rates.
After a steep plunge in October, stock markets have seen an astounding recovery in November.
