Home prices in the US are set to rise by 1.6% on average over the next 12 months, according to Zillow forecasts.
But some cities are poised for even more robust growth.
In a recent analysis, financial information site SmartAsset compiled Zillow's price growth forecasts for 192 US metropolitan areas over the next year.
Below, we've listed 22 cities where Zillow expects to see the largest price growth through the end of March 2025. Prices in all of them are expected to rise by at least 3.7%. To make their projections, Zillow uses a model that considers factors like population growth, mortgage rates, cost of construction supplies, the unemployment rate, tax rates, the supply of homes for sale, the percentage of homeowners late on payments, and more.

Alongside price growth estimates as of March 31, we've included below median home-sale prices for each city as of February 29. The average number of days that properties spend on the market from when they're listed to when their sale is pending is also included. This gives a window into how competitive each market is, SmartAsset says.
Among all 192 cities looked at, the average home-sale price is $312,430, and the average days on the market until a pending sale is 21.2, the analysis showed.
All data is from Zillow and compiled by SmartAsset. The data used was the most recent available at the time of the analysis.
