Housing prices did not face sustained downward pressure through end of 2025. The FHFA HPI showed prices rose 1.8% year-over-year in Q4 2025 and up 0.8% quarter-over-quarter. Case-Shiller (seasonally adjusted) rose for five consecutive months through December, with the national index up 1.3% year-over-year.
