Home prices

Here's a look at 12 of the nation's most affordable housing markets, based on the lowest shares of median local income needed to buy a house in the area, according to Redfin.

Albuquerque, N.M., home prices dipped slightly last month, but still maintained their torrid rate of growth over the past year.

The spring home buying market — traditionally the strongest of the year — didn't do much to boost overall home sale prices in greater Hartford this year.

The Jacksonville, Fla., housing picture continued its trend of mixed results in July.

While talks of an impending recession pick up steam, the housing market remains fairly stalwart and won't be to blame this time around, according to Zillow.

July brought some zip to a Portland area housing market that had been in the doldrums relative to the past few years, but the rally might prove short-lived.

Despite a record streak of higher prices, some economists believe homes in certain Bay Area communities should be considered a bargain. And that's even with median price tags easily topping a million bucks.

Sales activity in the metro Atlanta housing market has chilled this summer, but prices continue to rise steadily, according to a report released this week.

Massachusetts home sale agreements shot up 9% in July, compared to a year ago, and the median price of a single-family home put under agreement last month rose to almost $440,000.

With bidding wars subsiding, new-home sales prices dropped, causing the largest decline in new construction since 2013, according to Redfin.
