Housing Price Index (MoM): release dates, results and history
Housing Price Index (MoM) last printed 0.3 on Tue, Sep 29, 2026 against a 0.1 consensus forecast and a 0 prior, a +0.67 standard-deviation surprise. The next release is Tuesday, October 27, 2026 at 9:00 AM ET. Captured live by Helious the moment it printed.
The FHFA index is purchase only. It follows repeat sales, meaning the same house selling twice, financed with conforming mortgages, and refis never enter it at all. That makes it the cleanest read on what buyers are actually paying. Rates traders watch it for the lag. Home prices turn up in shelter CPI a year or more later, and shelter is the stickiest part of the inflation basket, the part that takes longest to come down. Case-Shiller lands the same morning, and between the two of them you get the month's home price story.
The trend
How it moves Treasuries
It rarely moves Treasuries on the day. A run of reaccelerating prints keeps shelter disinflation in doubt and leans against cuts. Cooling prices build the case for them. See it scored live on the Helious desk, or read how the standard-deviation surprise is computed.
