Chicago Ranks Second in Home Price Growth According to Case-Shiller Data

Chicago's home price growth was the second fastest among 20 major U.S. cities in April, rising by 4.1% from a year earlier, according to S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller Indices. This is a dramatic change from consistently being at or near the bottom of the 20 big metros for a five-year stretch that ended with the advent of the COVID-era housing boom. Nationwide, home prices dipped by 0.2% in April, the first negative figure since at least January 2017.
