根據房地產經紀公司紅芬的報告，美國5月份的房屋銷量跌至過去十年來的最低水平，需求和供應都在高利率環境中趨緩。房價上升至歷史新高，30年期固定抵押貸款利率約為7％，壓低了需求和供應。根據紅芬的數據，待售住宅數量仍比疫情前水平低約25％。5月份共售出40.7959萬房屋，是過去十年中僅次於2023年10月（39.8537萬）和2020年5月（36.9300萬）的最少銷量月份。房屋銷量在5月份季節性調整基礎上月跌1.7％，年減2.9％，而月度中位房屋銷售價格則飆升至歷史新高，reaching $439,716，月增1.6％，年增5.1％。季節性調整後的新上市房源5月份月增0.3％，年增8.8％。但仍比疫情前（2019年5月）水準低約20％。紅芬高級經濟學家Elijah de la Campa表示：“由於高昂的購房成本讓房屋搜索者和潛在賣家都感到不安，銷售疲軟。在一些市場，由於待售房屋太少，買家正在參加競價戰，這有助於推動房價創下歷史新高。”
