Why Are Home Prices Rising in July 2024 Despite Fewer Sales?

Why Are Home Prices Rising in July 2024 Despite Fewer Sales?

Published 07/09/2024 | Posted by Dan Price

What's Happening in July 2024 with the Average Price Going Up So Much


July 09, 2024 : In July 2024, the residential real estate market is witnessing significant changes that are noteworthy for both buyers and sellers. While we have projected that 2,526 homes will be sold this month, this projection is based on the data from the 514 homes that have already been sold so far. Despite this drop in sales compared to previous months and the same period last year, there has been a noticeable increase in home prices, capturing the attention of market analysts and participants alike.


The projected total number of homes sold in July 2024 is 2,526, which represents a 6.4% decrease from June 2024, where 2,698 homes were sold. When compared to July 2023, the decline is even more pronounced, with a 10.5% drop from the 2,821 homes sold last year. This decrease in the number of transactions indicates a cooling in the volume of sales, which could be due to various factors such as seasonal trends, economic conditions, or changes in buyer behavior.


Interestingly, while the number of homes sold has decreased, the average selling price has seen a significant increase. Based on the sales so far this month, the average price of a home sold in July 2024 is $630,037. This is a substantial 9.4% increase from the previous month of June 2024, where the average selling price was $575,980. Compared to July 2023, the average selling price has risen by 6.0%, up from $594,567. This upward trend in prices suggests that the demand for homes remains strong, or there is a limited supply of homes available, driving up the prices.



The median selling price also reflects this upward trend. In July 2024, the median price of homes sold so far is $475,000, which represents a 6.1% increase from June 2024's median price of $447,500. Compared to July 2023, the median price has increased by 3.3%, from $460,000. The median price is a critical indicator as it shows the middle point of all transactions, providing a more accurate reflection of the market without being skewed by extremely high or low prices.


Another important metric to consider is the sold-to-list price ratio, which indicates how close the final selling price is to the initial listing price. In July 2024, the sold-to-list price ratio is 97.42%, slightly down from June 2024's ratio of 97.49%. This small decrease shows that homes are still selling relatively close to their asking prices, suggesting a competitive market where buyers are willing to meet sellers' pricing expectations.


These trends highlight a unique situation in the real estate market for July 2024. While the number of homes being sold is decreasing, the prices are climbing. This could be indicative of a market where supply is not meeting demand, causing prices to rise even as fewer transactions take place. For buyers, this means facing higher costs, while sellers might find themselves in a favorable position to capitalize on the current market conditions.


Understanding these dynamics is crucial for anyone involved in the real estate market, whether you're buying, selling, or simply keeping an eye on market trends. The increase in average and median prices, despite fewer sales, is a significant development that could influence market strategies and decisions moving forward.
