US home price gains slow in April in latest sign of sluggish housing recovery
– canadianbusiness.com
WASHINGTON – U.S. home prices rose in April compared with a year earlier, but the increase was the smallest annual gain in 14 months. Price gains have slowed this year as sales have faltered.
Data provider CoreLogic said Tuesday that prices rose 10.5 per cent in April from 12 months earlier. That is a healthy gain, but it is down from March’s 11.1 per cent increase and February’s 12.2 per cent rise.
On a month-to-month basis, April prices rose 2.1 per cent. But CoreLogic’s monthly figures aren’t adjusted for seasonal patterns, such as warmer spring weather.
Higher mortgage rates, tight credit and a limited supply of available homes have slowed the housing recovery. Sales of existing homes ticked up in April after falling to a 20-month low in March. They were still 6.8 per cent lower than a year ago.
Prices rose in the 12 months ending in April in every state, CoreLogic said. The states with the biggest price gains were California, 15.6 per cent; Nevada, 14…
