Read this with care

List prices are what sellers ask, not what homes sell for, and a one-year change in them can swing with what happens to be on the market. The FHFA trend covers 2020 to 2025, including the pandemic-era run-up, so it may overstate where prices go from here. The projection is both trends carried forward, not a call on the next turn.
