Monday, September 14, 2026
A ratings-agency report found that approximately 81% of U.S. housing markets are valued above historical norms based on price-to-rent ratios and other metrics, with the Northeast region showing the highest concentration of these markets. The report did not specify which agency conducted the analysis or the methodology used to determine overvaluation thresholds. Home prices remain near record levels across the country as of the report's publication.
