Methodology: For this piece, GOBankingRates used Zillow’s February 2024 Single-Family Residence (SFR) home value data to discover the current state of the housing market in every state. First, for each state GOBankingRates found the following: (1) February 2022 SFR home value; (2) February 2023 SFR home value; (3) September 2023 SFR home value; (4) January 2024 SFR home value; and (5) February 2024 SFR home value. With these figures collected, GOBankingRates next found the following for each state: (6) two-year (February 2022 to February 2024) change in SFR home value; (7) one-year (February 2023 to February 2024) change in SFR home value; (8) six-month (September 2023 to February 2024) change in SFR home value; and (9) one-month (January 2024 to February 2024) change in SFR home value. All data was collected and is up-to-date as of April 10, 2024.
