The real estate frenzy spurred by the coronavirus pandemic continues, though at a slower pace. Buyers are still competing for a limited supply of housing, driving up prices for affordable properties in cities throughout Southern California.
The typical home value in the United States was $360,385 in October, 2.4% higher than the year before.
Increasing mortgage rates have slowed growth, with prices even declining in some places. But some areas are still seeing price jumps compared with the year before.
