Sales of newly built homes tank in April
Sales of newly built homes fell 4.7% in April compared to March and dropped 7.7% from the previous year, according to the U.S. Census.
March sales were also revised significantly lower.
Higher mortgage rates are affecting sales, with the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate rising from the high 6% range at the end of March to 7.5% in April, reducing affordability.
The median price of new homes sold in April was $433,500, up 4% from April 2023, primarily due to the sale of higher-end homes.
Builders face high costs for land, labor, and materials, preventing price reductions, CNBC has reported.
