Description: 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 fell 2.4% in March, with month-over-month sales remaining steady in the Northeast but declining in the other three regions of the U.S. All regions posted year-over-year decreases.
Existing-Home Sales for April 2023 will be released on Thursday, May 18, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern.
NAR Media Communications issues a news release close to mid-month with the latest existing-home sales figures. The releases include analysis and quotes by NAR's Chief Economist Lawrence Yun regarding the sales volume, prices, inventory and interest rates.
