The latest S&P/Case-Shiller House Price Index (HPI), which tracks price fluctuations of single-family homes in 20 major metropolitan areas, showed a 4.2% increase — slightly above the expected 4.1%.
Although this result indicates a slowdown compared to the previous reading of 4.6%, the difference relative to market estimates was not significant. These figures suggest that the real estate market continues to operate within a stable range, without any clear signs of a sharp price decline.
