Case-Shiller Home Price Index

The Case-Shiller Home Price Index measures changes in the value of residential properties in the U.S. over time. It tracks home prices in various cities by comparing repeat sales of the same homes, providing a more accurate reflection of market trends. The index is often used by economists and investors to assess housing market health and predict future price movements. Higher index values indicate rising home prices, while lower values suggest declines, making it a key tool for understanding real estate dynamics.
