Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale Home Prices Up 5.2% Year Over Year, According to First American Data & Analytics Monthly Home Price Index Report

—Homeowning ‘Grinches’ Hoarding Housing Supply from Willing Holiday Buyers—

—Starter Home Price Appreciation Remains Robust in Most Markets—

First American Data & Analytics, a leading national provider of property-centric information, risk management and valuation solutions and a division of First American Financial Corporation (NYSE: FAF), today released its November 2023 Home Price Index (HPI) report. The report tracks home price changes less than four weeks behind real time at the national, state and metropolitan (Core-Based Statistical Area) levels and includes metropolitan price tiers that segment sale transactions into starter, mid and luxury tiers. The full report can be found here.

Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale HPI

In the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale CBSA, home prices increased by 5.2 percent in November compared with a year ago and decreased by 0.3 compared with October 2023. See below for price-tier data.

November 2023 National HPI Highlights

The First American Data & Analytics’ non-seasonally adjusted (NSA) HPI showed that nationally in November1 2023:

  • Between October 2023 and November 2023 house prices increased 0.3 percent.
  • House prices increased 7.6 percent between November 2022 and November 2023.
  • House prices reached a new peak for the eighth month in a row in November 2023.
  • House price growth reported in last month’s HPI for September 2023 to October 2023 was revised down 0.3 percentage points, from 0.4 percent to 0.1 percent.

“The October spike in mortgage rates thankfully retreated in November, providing an affordability boost to prospective buyers and fueling home price appreciation. Preliminary November results indicate that home prices increased for the eighth consecutive month,” said Mark Fleming, chief economist at First American. “This holiday season, homeowners are the ‘grinches,’ hoarding housing supply from willing buyers and keeping upward pressure on prices. However, the new year offers hope to discouraged buyers as sellers’ anchor bias to historically low mortgage rates fades and the potential for slightly lower mortgage rates further improves affordability.”

Year-Over-Year Price-Tier Data for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale Metro Area:

November 2022 to November 2023

The First American Data & Analytics HPI segments home price changes at the metropolitan level into three price tiers based on local market sales data: starter tier, which represents home sales prices at the bottom third of the market price distribution; mid-tier, which represents home sales prices in the middle third of the market price distribution; and the luxury tier, which represents home sales prices in the top third of the market price distribution.

“Unsurprisingly, starter home prices grew the fastest in many markets. Would be first-time buyers hoping to become homeowners usually do so with a lower-priced starter home," said Fleming. “While the homeownership rate for millennials recently surpassed 50 percent, there are still a lot of potential buyers bidding against each other for the rare starter home that comes to market."

First American Data & Analytics HPI Methodology

The First American Data & Analytics HPI report measures single-family home prices, including distressed sales, with indices updated monthly beginning in 1980 through the month of the current report. HPI data is provided at the national, state and CBSA levels and includes preliminary index estimates for the month prior to the report (i.e. the preliminary result of July transactions is reported in August). The most recent index results are subject to revision as data from more transactions become available.

The HPI uses a repeat-sales methodology, which measures prices changes for the same property over time using more than 46 million paired transactions to generate the indices. In non-disclosure states, the HPI utilizes a combination of public sales records, MLS sold and active listings, and appraisal data to estimate house prices. This comprehensive approach is particularly effective in areas where there is limited availability of accurate sale prices, such as non-disclosure states. Property type, price and location data are used to create more refined market segment indices. Real Estate-Owned transactions are not included.
