FNC: Residential Property Values increased 5.7% year-over-year in June

In addition to Case-Shiller, and CoreLogic, I'm also watching the FNC, Zillow and several other house price indexes.

FNC released their June 2015 index data today.  FNC reported that their Residential Price Index™ (RPI) indicates that U.S. residential property values increased 1.2% from May to June (Composite 100 index, not seasonally adjusted). 

The 10 city MSA increased 1.7% in June, the 20-MSA RPI increased 1.6%, and the 30-MSA RPI increased 1.4%. These indexes are not seasonally adjusted (NSA), and are for non-distressed home sales (excluding foreclosure auction sales, REO sales, and short sales).

Notes: In addition to the composite indexes, FNC presents price indexes for 30 MSAs. FNC also provides seasonally adjusted data.

The year-over-year (YoY) change was larger in June than in May, with the 100-MSA composite up 5.7% compared to June 2014.

The index is still down 15.2% from the peak in 2006 (not inflation adjusted).

This graph shows the year-over-year change based on the FNC index (four composites) through June 2015. The FNC indexes are hedonic price indexes using a blend of sold homes and real-time appraisals.

Most of the other indexes are also showing the year-over-year change around 5%, but increasing a little faster over the last several months.

Note: The June Case-Shiller index will be released on Tuesday, August 25th.
