More data in this week regarding the continued rise of housing prices. CoreLogic reported that home prices rose 12.2% in May 2013 compared with the same month a year ago. It was the largest monthly increase since February 2006. Month over month, May prices rose 2.6%, including distressed home sales. Excluding distressed sales, May prices rose 2.3% compared with April, and the year-over-year price rose by 11.6%.
Most interestingly, among the 100 largest U.S. cities, 97 showed a year-over-year increase in home prices. Some of the largest gains (including distressed properties) came in the Los Angeles metro area (up 19.8%) which mirrors what we’ve been seeing in this hot market.
What does the future hold? CoreLogic indicates that June housing prices will rise another 13.2% year over year and an additional 2.9% month over month. Excluding distressed sales, CoreLogic’s year-over-year increase for June is forecast at 12% and the month-over-month estimate is forecast to rise by 2%. All more signs that this market shows no signs of cooling off.
