Why New-Home Prices Are Falling in Summer 2025 – and Where Buyers Can Find Deals Now
UNITED STATES, JUL 14 – Nearly one-third of the largest 100 U.S. metro areas saw home prices fall at least 1% in June 2025 amid rising inventory and high mortgage rates, reports ICE Mortgage Technology.
- New-Home prices have been falling significantly in many U.S. markets by mid-2025, including Florida, California, and Texas, reflecting a cooling housing market.
- This decline results from rising inventory, high mortgage rates in the high 6% range, and slowing buyer demand following the pandemic housing boom.
- Markets such as Salt Lake City and Austin saw price drops over 14%, while Denver faced a large inventory surge and price correction with median home prices down 3.6%.
- Real estate analyst Nick Gerli noted May's unprecedented inventory spike, and Realtor.com reported 20.7% of listings had price cuts in June 2025, the highest since 2016.
- These trends suggest new opportunities for affordability and buyer leverage, though economists warn that these lower prices and incentives may not last.
