The sale of new homes across the United States rose last month on both a monthly and an annual basis, with cheaper home loans acting as an incentive for buyers.
“Sales of new single-family houses in February 2025 were at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 676,000,” the Census Bureau said in a March 25 statement. “This is 1.8 percent above the revised January rate of 664,000 and is 5.1 percent above the February 2024 estimate of 643,000.”
