“Although U.S. housing prices remain substantially above their year-ago levels, July’s report reflects a forceful deceleration,” stated Craig J. Lazzara, managing director at S&P DJI. “The theme of strong but decelerating prices was reflected across all 20 cities.”
Tampa, Miami and Dallas reported the highest year-over-year increases among the 20 cities, increasing 31.8%, 31.7% and 24.7%, respectively.
