September 2024 Housing Index Shows Lower Buyer Activity

September 11, 2024 by Danielle Edwards

September 2024 Housing Index Shows Lower Buyer Activity

The September 2024 housing index reveals that buyer activity has slowed across the United States. According to the MBS Highway Housing Index, the national buyer activity index dropped to 34, down from 40 in August 2024. This decline in activity reflects a cooling market, especially in regions like the Southwest and Southeast. However, some areas, like the Northeast, continue to show resilience in buyer interest.


Buyer Activity in September 2024

The MBS Highway Housing Index shows a sharp decrease in buyer activity, particularly in the September 2024 housing index. Nationally, the index has dropped to 34, signaling that fewer buyers are actively looking for homes. Regions like the Southwest saw significant reductions, with the buyer activity index at 29. This is a 6-point drop compared to last month, reflecting slower market movement.

Home Prices Show Mixed Trends

While buyer activity has declined, the September 2024 housing index indicates that home prices are experiencing mixed trends. Price reductions were noted across the nation, but some regions, like the Northeast, continue to see price increases. Nationally, the price direction index remained at 48, signaling a slight decline from 2023’s levels. Price reductions are prevalent in slower markets, which may benefit potential buyers.

Regional Breakdown of the Housing Market

Across the regions, the housing market varied significantly. In the September 2024 housing index, the Northeast remains the most active, with a buyer activity index of 56, while the Southwest is seeing the slowest pace at 29. The Mid-Atlantic and Midwest markets are stable but still reflect cooling trends in activity. Price reductions are more common in regions like the Southwest, offering opportunities for buyers seeking better deals.

What to Expect in the Coming Months

Looking ahead, the September 2024 housing index suggests that buyer activity may remain slow as we move into the fall and winter seasons. However, price trends could stabilize or improve in areas with stronger buyer interest. Keeping an eye on the regional variations will be essential for buyers and sellers alike as the housing market adjusts to the new normal.
