+4.2%
Existing-home sales rose 4.2% month-over-month to a seasonally adjusted rate of 4.26 million in February 2025. Year-over-year, sales fell 1.2%.
According to NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun, "Home buyers are slowly entering the market. Mortgage rates have not changed much, but more inventory and choices are releasing pent-up housing demand."
The Existing-Home Sales data measures sales and prices of existing single-family homes for the nation overall, and gives breakdowns for the West, Midwest, South, and Northeast regions of the country. These figures include condos and co-ops, in addition to single-family homes.
Existing-Home Sales for March 2025 will be released on Thursday, April 24, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern.
