According to ATTOM’s Q2 2023 Home Affordability Report, 98% of median-priced U.S. single-family homes and condos were less affordable than their historical averages in the second quarter of 2023, up from 94% in the first quarter, with the decline in affordability attributed in part to rising sales prices, which have continued to outpace wage growth. Nationally, median single-family home values rose 10% from the first quarter to the second quarter, with residents needing 33% of their income to cover major homeownership expenses, the highest level since 2007.
