Volume of homeowner equity in the U.S. 1960-2022
The value of homeowner equity in the United States increased from approximately 8.77 trillion U.S. dollars in 2010 to approximately 29.3 trillion U.S. dollars in 2022. The home equity value is calculated by subtracting the value of remaining mortgage debt from the market value of the real estate property. That means that the value of home equity increases as the debtor pays off the mortgage.
