stock picks and a broker-level newsfeed that powers Wall Street. Upgrade NowLucia MutikaniWed, Feb 26, 2025, 4:11 PM 4 min readBy Lucia MutikaniWASHINGTON (Reuters) - Sales of new U.S. single-family homes fell more than expected in January as persistently high mortgage rates sidelined potential buyers, the latest indication that housing market and overall economic activity slowed early in the first quarter.The steep decline in new home sales, reported by the Commerce Department on Wednesday, also likely reflected the impact of snowstorms and extremely cold weather in much of the country last month. The report followed data this month showing a decline in retail sales in January and a job growth cooldown.The outlook for the busy spring home selling season is cloudy, with mortgage rates not expected to budge much from current levels amid policy uncertainty. The median house price increased to more than a two-year high in January, even as supply rose to levels last seen at the end of 2007."Today's drop in new home sales is just one more piece of the puzzle and it is becoming clearer, the economic activity in the first quarter is off to a slow-as-molasses start," said Christopher Rupkey, chief economist at FWDBONDS.New home sales plunged 10.5% to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 657,000 units last month, the Commerce Department's Census Bureau said. The sales pace for December was revised higher to a rate of 734,000 units from the previously reported 698,000 units. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast new home sales, which make up about 15% of U.S. home sales, would slide to a rate of 680,000 units.Sales tumbled 20.0% in the Northeast and plummeted 16.7% in the Midwest, likely chilled by frigid temperatures.
