Weekly Housing Market Activity Report for the Twin Cities

For Week Ending December 3, 2022
Publish Date: December 12, 2022 • All comparisons are to 2021

Rising interest rates and higher sales prices have caused affordability to decline

significantly this year, and U.S. homebuilders have taken note. New homes have
been getting smaller throughout 2022, with the U.S. Census reporting the median
square footage of homes under construction was 2,276 in the third quarter of 2022,
down 2.5% from the fourth quarter of 2021, when the median square footage was
2,335. The trend toward smaller homes is expected to continue in the months
ahead, as homebuyer budgets remain constrained.
In the Twin Cities region, for the week ending December 3:
• New Listings decreased 18.8% to 717
• Pending Sales decreased 34.3% to 637
• Inventory increased 14.4% to 7,879
