U.S. existing-home prices rose in June as RE/MAX reported stronger sales

NAR said the June median price for existing homes rose to $440,660, while RE/MAX's 47-metro June 2026 report showed higher sales, modest inventory growth and a $460,000 median sales price.

Fact Check
The claim's core assertions — a 1.8% year-over-year rise, a year-ago median of $432,700, and an extended upward price trend (all-time high) — are all confirmed by the primary NAR source and CBS News reporting. The only discrepancy is the exact price: NAR's official newsroom page reports $440,600, while the claim and multiple major outlets (CBS News, Yahoo Finance) report $440,660, a $60 difference most consistent with a transcription error propagated across news coverage. Because the percentage change, baseline value, and trend all match exactly, the substantive claim is accurate; the assessment is likely_true with a minor caveat about the precise last digits of the median price.
