REMAX NATIONAL HOUSING REPORT FOR JULY 2025
July's Home Sales Match 2024 Levels But Take Longer to Sell DENVER, Aug. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- After five consecutive months of gains, U.S. home sales dipped slightly in July, falling 0.7% below June's total. Compared to July 2024, sales were up 0.6%, but homes took longer to sell—averaging 44 days on the market, up from 37 days a year ago and three days longer than June, according to data from the 52 metro areas surveyed. The Median Sales Price in July was $450,000, down 1.1% from June – a typical seasonal trend. Year-over-year, prices were 2.3% higher. Inventory also saw a slight month-over-month decline of 0.8% but was 27.7% higher than July 2024. A 2.5% drop in new listings contributed to the monthly decrease, though new listings were still 4.4% above last year's levels. Shop Top Mortgage Rates A quicker path to financial freedom Personalized rates in minutes Your Path to Homeownership "July's housing data reflects a market that's adjusting seasonally," said REMAX CEO Erik Carlson. "Homes are taking a bit longer to sell, but inventory has remained consistent and prices have held steady. That's a sign of resilience—and continued opportunity for both buyers and sellers." In San Antonio, Texas, one of the top five markets in the report for housing supply, the 5.6-months' supply of inventory signals a more balanced environment. As the market continues to normalize, local expertise can be even more critical in helping clients navigate pricing and strategy. "While the number of sales was down and the days on market increased, the average sales price also continued to increase," said Sara Briseño Gerrish, Broker/Owner of RE/MAX Unlimited in San Antonio. "Now more than ever, it's crucial to work with an experienced real estate agent who understands the local market dynamics. This will ensure sellers have a comprehensive pricing strategy and buyers are able to leverage that expertise into a strong offer." Other metrics of note: Months' Supply of Inventory rose to 2.8 months, up slightly from 2.7 in June and higher than the 2.2 months recorded last July. Buyers paid an average of 99% of the asking price in July – the same as in June 2025 but below the 100% seen in July 2024. New listings grew year over year for a 17th consecutive month.

Brazil bolsters economy in response to U.S. tariffs
Aug. 20 (UPI) -- After Washington imposed 50% tariffs on Brazilian exports, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's government launched the Sovereign Brazil Plan, a $5.5 billion emergency package combining subsidized credit and guarantees for the hardest-hit exporters. The initiative also includes tax deferrals, tax credits through 2026, expanded access to insurance against canceled orders and public purchases to absorb agricultural and industrial surpluses. The aid -- tied to preserving jobs -- is paired with a diplomatic push and efforts to open new markets to prevent production cuts and protect growth. "We cannot be scared, nervous or anxious when there is a crisis. A crisis is for creating new things," Lula said Aug. 13 as he presented the measures. According to Brazil's Ministry of Development, Industry, Commerce and Services, the 50% tariff imposed by the United States affects 35.9% of Brazilian exports to the U.S. market. That was equal to $14.5 billion out of $40.4 billion in 2024, hitting key goods such as coffee, beef and sugar. In the short term, the Sovereign Brazil Plan will serve as a liquidity and risk buffer for the hardest-hit companies, providing loans and guarantees to ease cash shortages and prevent production shutdowns. At the same time, public purchases will act as a "demand floor" for sectors facing perishability or sudden drops in orders -- including meat, fruit and seafood -- to stabilize producers' income and prevent ripple effects in transport, logistics and services. The measure also buys time for the external track of the plan: challenging the unilateral tariffs at the World Trade Organization and, foremost, diversifying markets. According to the Brazilian government, 397 new markets have opened in less than three years, expanding the customer base for "Made in Brazil" products. With partial access to the U.S. market cut off, Brazil has moved on two fronts: the BRICS/Global South and deeper trade agreements with China. According to Brazil's presidency, Lula and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke by phone Aug. 7 to discuss the economic situation and the unilateral tariffs that have hit both countries hardest. Lula and Modi agreed to strengthen bilateral trade and pledged to expand the Mercosur-India agreement to raise exchanges to more than $20 billion before 2030. They are preparing visits and business missions to open opportunities in trade, defense, energy and technology. With China -- its main partner -- Brazil relies on a strategic relationship backed by about $4.7 billion in Chinese investment in infrastructure, renewable energy and agribusiness, helping redirect exports and reduce dependence on the dollar. At the regional level, Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa met Monday with Lula in Brasília, where they agreed to boost bilateral trade and coordinate responses to what they see as U.S. protectionism. Brazil also signaled it was willing to lower tariffs on some Ecuadorian products hit with an additional 15% U.S. duty, which affected exports of bananas, shrimp and flowers. In recent months, Brazil has revived its Mercosur agreement with the European Union, reached a deal with the European Free Trade Association and advanced negotiations with the Gulf states and Canada, along with new contacts with Vietnam. Ricardo Alban, president of the National Confederation of Industry, called the federal government's measures positive steps to mitigate the impact of the 50% U.S. tariff on Brazilian exporters. "We welcome these measures because they address many of the demands raised by industries, federations and industry associations, and also because they include two basic principles: continuing negotiations as a priority and adopting new measures if needed," Alban said. Brazil's National Confederation of Commerce in Goods, Services and Tourism said reducing risks in foreign trade requires diversifying markets, expanding trade agreements and strengthening economic diplomacy. The group also called for steps to contain production costs, rising prices and slowing economic activity, while preserving jobs and supporting solid growth in Brazil. The International Monetary Fund projects Brazil's economy will grow 2.3% in 2025, down from 3.4% in 2024. Copyright 2025 UPI News Corporation. All Rights Reserved.
