The total value of U.S. housing climbed to $55.1 trillion in June 2025, a record high and a dramatic $20 trillion gain since before the pandemic. About one dollar in eight (12.5%) of that five‑year run‑up came from newly built homes; the rest was price appreciation on the existing stock. But growth has cooled in the past year, with U.S. housing wealth rising $862 billion, or 1.6%, a far slower pace than during the 2020–2022 boom years.

Housing isn’t worth more, the dollar is worth less.
Viewed another way, this is just the collapse of the US dollar, and the inflated stock and real estate markets are shelters of real wealth running away from cash.
