Fannie Mae published the results of its May 2025 National Housing Survey (NHS), indicating a notable increase in the Home Purchase Sentiment Index (HPSI). The HPSI rose by 4.3 points to 73.5 in May.
The HPSI was also up 4.1 points year-over-year, demonstrating a sustained improvement in consumer sentiment towards housing. This index measures consumer confidence in the housing market.
The significant monthly and annual increase in HPSI suggests strengthening consumer confidence, which is a positive indicator for future housing market activity. This sentiment can translate into increased demand for mortgages and housing, benefiting Fannie Mae's business volumes.
