Home price jumps are losing altitude.

Driving the news: Year-over-year home price growth declined by 2.3 percentage points from June to July, the largest one-month drop in the more than 27-year history of the S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price NSA Index.

  • “Although U.S. housing prices remain substantially above their year-ago levels, July’s report reflects a forceful deceleration,” Craig Lazzara, managing director of S&P DJI, said in a statement.

Yes, but: Prices still rose 15.8% in July, compared with a year earlier.

  • Tampa (31.8%), Miami (31.7%), Dallas (24.7%), Charlotte (23.6%) and Atlanta (22.8%) were the top five hottest markets in year-over-year price growth.

What we're watching: How rising mortgage rates — which have spiked further since the latest Case-Shiller data was collected — affect prices.

  • "7% or close to it is the new 30yr fixed rate reality for now," Mortgage News Daily reported.
  • Capital Economics property economist Sam Hall wrote Tuesday that he's expecting a "sustained decline over the next 12 months" and "we think it is only a matter of time before month-on-month price growth also turns negative."

After street vendor crackdown, Corona Plaza market is a changed place - Gothamist

Image
The stretch of pavement in Queens where Liliana Sanchez used to sell aguas frescas has been empty since city sanitation police forced her to pack up her pop-up tent canopy. Her 16-year-old daughter now spends school nights and weekends busing tables to help pay rent. Across the street from Corona Plaza, sales at Alondra Cardoso’s hair salon have dipped 30%, or some $200 to $300 dollars a week, since the clientele from the former street vendor market no longer venture into her shop. Delivery worker Jorge Marin, 35, now orders breakfast from a bakery at a nearby intersection. He used to load up on tamales and yogurt and steaming cups of champurrado at the market, which expanded during the height of the pandemic. Now, at the bakery, he said he spends more for less. “It’s been dead,” Queens Borough President Donovan Richards said of the plaza since the vendors’ departure. “It’s taken the life out of the community.” The scene on a recent day in Corona Plaza, Queens, where a crack...

Chiefs' Market Movers heading into the Bengals game - Arrowhead Pride

Image
At this point, the Cincinnati Bengals are an interesting opponent for the Kansas City Chiefs . In recent seasons, they have been an important rival — ending one of the Chiefs’ Super Bowl runs and watching Kansas City continue another. But as the 2023 season winds down, the Chiefs are the ones who have been bungling things. S ince the bye week, Kansas City has dropped four of six games. In what looked like the easier half of the season, this is hardly the result we expected. Rather than making progress, the Chiefs’ offense feels like it’s been going backward. Can the team turn things around to clinch the AFC West? If so, they’ll rely on these players to continue (or reverse) their recent trends. Bulls Photo by David Eulitt/Getty Images EDGE George Karlaftis: 2022’s first-round draft pick is on the verge of achieving something many of us never expected of him: with nine quarterback sacks heading into this weekend’s game, there’s a very good chance that he reaches double-digits...
