The increase in new U.S. home sales in June came after a two-month decline, with a rise of 1.6% pushing the annual rate to 628,000 units. However, sales were still down by 5.6% compared to the previous year. Rising mortgage costs and increased interest rates, which reached their highest level in 11 months at around 6.58%, have slowed the market.

Although the supply of homes remained nearly steady at 485,000 units, the higher interest rates are hindering the sustainable recovery of the U.S. real estate market.
