Home Sales Dip
Existing home sales take a dip in August as median price growth slows
Existing home sales decreased 0.4% month-over-month in August to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.80 million (Briefing.com consensus 4.70 million) versus an upwardly revised 4.82 million (from 4.81 million) in July. That is the seventh straight month that existing home sales have fallen. Total sales in August were down 19.9% from a year ago.
The key takeaway is higher mortgage rates are taking slowing existing home sales, having created affordability pressures forcing some sellers to lower asking prices. Higher rates are leading to a moderation in the pace of growth in median selling prices.
