" The Housing Opportunities and Market Experience (HOME) report was created to monitor consumer
sentiment about the housing market. This report covers core topics that will be tracked on a monthly
basis, such as views on if now is a good time to buy or sell a home, the perception of home price
changes, perceived ability to qualify for a mortgage, and the outlook on the U.S. economy. " - NAR 2019
The most interesting part of NAR's most recent HOME Survey was the data collected nationwide on home prices over the past year.

People all across the country were asked to analyze their community's house pricing. Sixty-seven percent of people believe that prices have gone up within their communities in the last 12 months, which is an increase from NAR's second quarter report of 2019 at 63 percent. Twenty-seven percent believe prices have stayed the same and six percent believe prices have gone down.
