July 2025 Housing Market Update: Existing-Home Sales Show Positive Growth
August 22, 2025 - 19:07
In July 2025, the housing market experienced a notable rebound, with existing-home sales rising by 2.0%. This increase can be attributed to a combination of factors, including a rise in available inventory and stable home prices, which have encouraged potential buyers to enter the market.
The uptick in sales indicates a growing confidence among consumers, as they navigate through a more favorable buying environment. The increase in inventory has provided buyers with more options, reducing the competitive pressure that has characterized previous months.
Moreover, the stability in home prices has reassured buyers, mitigating concerns over potential market volatility. As interest rates remain relatively low, many first-time homebuyers are taking advantage of the current conditions to make their purchases.
Overall, July’s data reflects a positive shift in the housing market, suggesting that the sector may be on a path toward sustained recovery in the coming months.
