U.S. home price appreciation reached 20.7% in August 2021, marking the third straight month it has reached a new record mark, according to the latest findings by First American.

New listings of homes for sale fell 9% from a year earlier, and closed home sales were down 5%.

A new study has found that monthly growth in both home values and rents eased in September, continuing a seasonal calming that began late summer.

In a letter to the White House, NAHB Chairman Fowke outlined three major areas of concern for home builders that may negatively impact the overall U.S. economic landscape.

The share of available homes hit its lowest level since 2013 and it could be years until builders can meet growing demands of buyers.

Housing relief could still be a long way in the Golden State, where affordability and the demand-supply gap are making homebuyers and builders rethink their strategy.

Even as builders remain optimistic about the demand for single-family homes, these factors are likely to impact their outlook in the near term.
