While 2019 saw some slowdown in the appreciation of home prices, recent data show the market is firming, with some experts striking a bullish note going into 2020.
The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index, which measures average home prices in major urban centers across the United States, grew by a year-over-year rate of 3.3 percent in October, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices. That rate of housing stock price growth was higher than the 3.2 percent annual rise in September.
