Contracts to buy U.S. previously owned homes rose by the most in more than 2-1/2 years in January, but a resurgence in mortgage rates could delay a much-awaited housing market turnaround.

The National Association of Realtors said on Monday its Pending Home Sales Index, based on signed contracts, jumped 8.1% last month, the biggest increase since June 2020. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast contracts, which become sales after a month or two, rising 1.0%.

Contracts increased in all four regions. Pending home sales decreased 24.1% in January on a year-on-year basis. "Home sales activity looks to be bottoming out in the first quarter of this year, before incremental improvements will occur," said NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun.

It wasn't the British-record $130 million paid for Enzo Fernandez or the $385 million splashed on transfers in total, if add-ons materialize.
