CoreLogic: Home Prices Rise 6.2% Annually
press release
   

CoreLogic, a leading global property information, analytics and data-enabled services provider, today released its CoreLogic Home Price Index (HPI) and HPI Forecast data for April 2016 which shows home prices are up both year over year and month over month.

Home prices nationwide, including distressed sales, increased year over year by 6.2 percent in April 2016 compared with April 2015 and increased month over month by 1.8 percent in April 2016 compared withMarch 2016,* according to the CoreLogic HPI.

The CoreLogic HPI Forecast indicates that home prices will increase by 5.3 percent on a year-over-year basis from April 2016 to April 2017, and on a month-over-month basis home prices are expected to increase 0.9 percent from April 2016 to May 2016. The CoreLogic HPI Forecast is a projection of home prices using the CoreLogic HPI and other economic variables. Values are derived from state-level forecasts by weighting indices according to the number of owner-occupied households for each state.

“Low mortgage rates and a lean for-sale inventory have resulted in solid home-price growth in most markets,” said Dr. Frank Nothaft, chief economist for CoreLogic. “An expected gradual rise in interest rates and more homes offered for sale are expected to moderate appreciation in the coming year.”

“The appreciation in home prices over the past year reflects the gathering pace of the recovery in housing in most states and regions in the U.S.,” said Anand Nallathambi, president and CEO of CoreLogic. “The rate recovery does vary somewhat based on local conditions. Price increases in a significant number of states in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions lagged the national average with Connecticut, Maryland, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, New Jersey and Vermont registering gains of 1 percent or less over the past year.”

Full-month April 2016 national data can be found at the CoreLogic Home Price Insights page.

*March data was revised. Revisions with public records data are standard, and to ensure accuracy, CoreLogic incorporates the newly released public data to provide updated results.
