Every month, CoreLogic release the results of their Home Price Insights Report, which includes the actual year-over-year change in national prices and their predictions for the following year.
According to their predictions, the average appreciation over the course of 2018 should be 4.8%, which is greater than the national appreciation average of 3.6%.
What does this mean?
The 2018 real estate market is one of low inventory, high demand and rising prices. The forces currently at work can be simply explained with the theory of supply and demand. However, if a large supply of inventory were to hit the market, prices will start to appreciate closer to the forecasted rate, still greater than the historic norm!
