2026.01.1415:00:00UTC+00U.S. December Existing Home Sales Soar to New Heights, Posting 5.1% Increase

In a surprising turn of events, the U.S. existing home sales surged to a remarkable 5.1% in December 2025, reflecting a significant jump from the prior month’s modest increase of 0.5% recorded in November. The latest data, updated on January 14, 2026, reveals a dynamic shift in the housing market's activity during the final month of the year.

This month-over-month analysis shows an impressive recovery and growth in home sales compared to November. Analysts attribute this sharp increase to favorable interest rates and an uptick in consumer confidence as the festive season sparked a wave of property purchasing.

The surge in existing home sales highlights a strong closing performance for the housing market in 2025, setting a positive tone for real estate while economic commentators continue to watch for any lingering aftereffects of wider economic trends as we venture further into 2026.
