Housing Market Snapshot: Price Changes by State
Key Takeaways
- The five states with the fastest-growing prices were all in the Northeast, apart from Wyoming.
- Mississippi was the only state to see a drop in home prices from 2023 to 2024.
- In nearly all states, the housing market has risen faster than real GDP growth (2.5%) and inflation (2.9%).
U.S. housing prices rose 4.5% from the fourth quarter of 2023 to the fourth quarter of 2024. But which states were booming, and which ones were cooling?
This Markets in a Minute graphic, in partnership with Terzo, highlights how housing prices have shifted in each state over the last year.
State-by State Housing Market Data
The Federal Housing Finance Agency measures average price changes in repeat sales or refinancings on the same properties. It’s a broad measure of the shifts in single-family house prices.

The highest housing market growth was primarily in Northeastern states like Connecticut, New Jersey, and Vermont. These states have inventory far below pre-pandemic levels, and higher incomes that are better able to support higher home costs.
Outside the Northeast, Wyoming is the only state to make the top five fastest-growing housing markets. The state faces low housing supply driven by a growing population and a low supply of affordable housing. Areas around Yellowstone National Park are particularly desirable with some properties seeing multi-million dollar price tags.
At the other end of the scale, the only housing market to see a drop in home prices was Mississippi. The population was flat from 2023 to 2024, and the state has seen an increase in housing inventory.
A Resilient Market
Despite elevated interest rates driving up mortgage costs, the housing market has been resilient. Most states saw home prices rise faster than real GDP growth (2.5%) and inflation (2.9%).
