Economists forecast that home prices rose 0.7% month-over-month, and 4.7% year-over-year.
Last month, the data showed that home prices rose 0.9% month-over-month and 4.6% year-over-year in January, roughly in line with the numbers for the prior month.
In a morning note, Bank of America Merril Lynch economists wrote: "This measure is constructed slightly differently and tends to be more volatile (and subject to notable downward revisions), so we do not anticipate as big of a gain in the Case-Shiller index. Demand for homes is on a steady track higher amid low inventory, leaving home prices to head higher."
