In July 2026, the S&P Cotality Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index showed a 1.9% annual increase, up from 1.6% in June, marking continued nominal home price growth despite 14 consecutive months of real-term declines due to inflation outpacing gains. Inflation stood at 3.4%, higher than the home price gain, reducing housing affordability. Regionally, Chicago led with a 6.9% rise, while Seattle saw a 1.6% decline, highlighting a strong East-West divide in market performance. Seasonal adjustments indicated that seasonal factors weighed on prices in July, and core inflation excluding energy rose modestly at 2.5%, impacting housing affordability more directly than energy price spikes.
