U.S. Housing Market Now Worth Record $52 Trillion
The total value of the U.S. housing market has surged 49% since the start of the pandemic, and more than $2.6 trillion over the past year alone, to a record $52 trillion. Of the six markets where property values have grown the most since before the pandemic, four are in Florida—Tampa, Miami, Jacksonville and Orlando. Unsurprisingly, these gains have helped the Sunshine State surpass New York as the second most valuable housing market in the country. California, with more than $10 trillion of value in its housing market, remains at the top of the ranking. Zillow

U.S. Property Prices Hit New Record in July
U.S. home prices reached a new record high in July, pushed up by historically low inventory. Values rose 0.6% from June and were up 1% from the same time last year, the prior peak, according to the S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller National Home Price Index. “The increase in prices that began in January has now erased the earlier decline, so that July represents a new all-time high for the National Composite [index],” said Craig Lazzara, managing director at S&P Dow Jones Indices.
