Considering the first quarter of the year, house prices went up 1.7 percent. "Because of the lag between contract signing and sale closing when our data are recorded, we judge the first quarter’s housing statistics were relatively unaffected by the COVID-19 outbreak. However, we are unable to account for any modifications or cancellations of sales later in March", said Dr. Lynn Fisher, Deputy Director of the Division of Research and Statistics at FHFA.
