US median home sale price stood at $403,200 in 2026, down 2.2% on the previous period.
US median home sale price in current dollars, published through FRED. Since 1963 the series has ranged from $17,800 (1963) to $442,600 (2022); the latest reading is $403,200 for 2026, down from $412,300 the period before.
Dollar levels compound both real activity and inflation, which is why long charts of nominal series climb so relentlessly. The informative parts are the interruptions: recessions flatten or bend the curve, and policy responses show up as sudden jumps in the financial series.
