U.S. house prices rose 0.4% in August as Denver gains continue
WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- U.S. home prices rose 0.4% in August to stretch year-on-year gains to 5.1%, according to the S&P/Case-Shiller 20-city composite released Tuesday. Eighteen out of 20 cities reported monthly gains. That's not unusual for the summer, and after seasonal adjustment, five were down, 11 were up, and four were unchanged. Portland and Denver had the strongest monthly gains, while only fast-growing San Francisco saw a decline, of 0.1%. Compared to Aug. 2014, Denver and San Francisco have the fastest growth at 10.7%; New York, Chicago and Washington D.C. each have growth of under 2%.
