“Nationally, year-over-year home price gains were lower in May than in April, but not dramatically so and a broad-based moderation continued,” says Philip Murphy, Managing Director and Global Head of Index Governance at S&P Dow Jones Indices.

“Among 20 major U.S. city home price indices, the average YOY gain has been declining for the past year or so and now stands at the moderate nominal YOY rate of 3.1%.”

Las Vegas, Phoenix and Tampa posted the highest year-over-year increases. In May, Las Vegas led with a 6.4% year-over-year price gain, followed closely by Phoenix at 5.7%, and Tampa at 5.1%.
