US home prices have stayed stubbornly high nationwide, but there are a handful of places that will likely see declines in 2025, according to CoreLogic.
In a recent note, the real-estate-analytics firm highlighted five metropolitan housing markets that have a more-than-70% chance of seeing declines this year.
“The cooling home price growth trend is expected to continue well into 2025, partly due to the base effect and comparison with strong early 2023 price appreciation and partly due to higher mortgage rates coming into this year and the expectations of higher rates over the course of 2025,” Selma Hepp, CoreLogic’s chief economist, said in a statement.
Here are the five metro areas highlighted by the firm:
