Redfin reports that the typical U.S. asking rent increased by 0.6% year over year in September to $1,634, with East Coast and Midwest metros seeing the largest increases. Washington, D.C. recorded the highest rent increase of 12% to $2,088, while Jacksonville, FL saw the biggest decrease of 11.3% to $1,485. The median rent has remained relatively stable over the past two years, ranging between $1,599 and $1,663.

Sun Belt states dominated the metros with the largest rent declines. Asking rents fell across all bedroom counts, with 3+ bedroom apartments experiencing the largest decrease of 1.9% to $1,995. Redfin Senior Economist Sheharyar Bokhari noted that rent stability varies by location, with less construction activity in the East Coast and Midwest leading to rising rents, while Sun Belt cities with post-pandemic construction booms are seeing faster rent decreases.

Redfin riporta che l'affitto medio negli Stati Uniti è aumentato del 0,6% su base annua a settembre, raggiungendo $1,634, con le aree metropolitane della Costa Est e del Midwest che hanno registrato i maggiori aumenti. Washington, D.C. ha registrato l'aumento degli affitti più alto, con un 12% fino a $2,088, mentre Jacksonville, FL ha visto la maggiore diminuzione, con un 11,3% fino a $1,485. L'affitto medio è rimasto relativamente stabile negli ultimi due anni, oscillando tra $1,599 e $1,663.

Negli stati del Sun Belt si trovano le aree metropolitane con le maggiori diminuzioni degli affitti. Gli affitti sono diminuiti in tutte le tipologie di appartamenti, con quelli con 3 o più camere da letto che hanno registrato il calo più significativo del 1,9% fino a $1,995. L'economista senior di Redfin, Sheharyar Bokhari, ha osservato che la stabilità degli affitti varia a seconda della località, con meno attività edilizia nella Costa Est e nel Midwest che porta a un aumento degli affitti, mentre le città del Sun Belt, con boom edilizi post-pandemia, stanno vivendo riduzioni più rapide degli affitti.

Los precios de los alquileres disminuyeron en todos los tipos de habitaciones, con los apartamentos de 3 o más habitaciones experimentando la mayor disminución de 1.9% hasta $1,995. El economista senior de Redfin, Sheharyar Bokhari, señaló que la estabilidad del alquiler varía según la ubicación, con menos actividad de construcción en la Costa Este y el Medio Oeste que lleva a un aumento de los alquileres, mientras que las ciudades del Sun Belt con un auge constructivo post-pandemia están viendo caídas más rápidas en los alquileres.

Redfin은 미국의 평균 임대료가 9월에 전년 대비 0.6% 증가하여 $1,634에 도달했다고 보고했습니다. 동부 해안과 중서부 지역의 대도시에서 가장 큰 증가가 있었습니다. 워싱턴 D.C.는 12% 증가하여 $2,088으로 가장 큰 임대료 증가율을 기록했으며, 플로리다주 잭슨빌은 11.3% 감소하여 $1,485로 가장 큰 감소를 보였습니다. 지난 2년간 중간 임대료는 $1,599에서 $1,663 사이에서 비교적 안정세를 유지했습니다.

햇볕이 잘 드는 주(Sun Belt states)는 가장 큰 임대료 감소가 나타난 대도시를 차지했습니다. 모든 침실 수에서 임대료가 하락했으며, 3개 이상의 침실 아파트가 1.9% 감소하여 $1,995로 가장 큰 감소율을 보였습니다. Redfin의 수석 경제학자인 Sheharyar Bokhari는 임대료의 안정성이 지역에 따라 다르다고 언급하며, 동부 해안과 중서부의 건설 활동이 적어 임대료가 상승하는 반면, 팬데믹 이후 건설 붐을 겪고 있는 햇볕이 잘 드는 도시에서는 임대료가 더 빠르게 하락하고 있다고 설명했습니다.

Les prix des loyers ont diminué dans toutes les catégories de chambres, les appartements de 3 chambres ou plus ayant connu la plus forte baisse de 1,9% jusqu'à $1,995. L'économiste senior de Redfin, Sheharyar Bokhari, a noté que la stabilité des loyers varie selon l'emplacement, une activité de construction moindre sur la côte est et dans le Midwest entraînant une hausse des loyers, tandis que les villes du Sun Belt, avec des boums de construction post-pandémiques, connaissent des baisses de loyer plus rapides.

Der leitende Ökonom von Redfin, Sheharyar Bokhari, stellte fest, dass die Stabilität der Mieten je nach Standort variiert, und weniger Bautätigkeit an der Ostküste und im Mittleren Westen zu steigenden Mieten führt, während Städte im Sun Belt mit einem Bau-Boom nach der Pandemie schnellere Mietrückgänge erleben.

Insights

The rental market is showing divergent trends across regions, reflecting local economic conditions and construction activity. Key observations:

  • National median asking rent increased 0.6% year-over-year to $1,634, indicating overall stability.
  • East Coast and Midwest metros are experiencing higher rent growth, with Washington, D.C. leading at 12% YoY increase.
  • Sun Belt markets are seeing significant rent declines, with Jacksonville, FL dropping 11.3% YoY.
  • All bedroom types saw slight decreases in asking rents, particularly 3+ bedrooms at -1.9% YoY.

These trends suggest a rebalancing of the rental market post-pandemic, with previous hot spots cooling and traditionally stable markets gaining ground. Investors should monitor local supply-demand dynamics and economic factors driving these regional differences.

The rental market data reveals important economic indicators:

  • Rent affordability is improving, with wages growing at 4% YoY while rents remain relatively flat.
  • Regional disparities highlight the impact of post-pandemic migration and construction patterns.
  • The cooling in Sun Belt markets may indicate a normalization after the pandemic-induced boom.
  • East Coast and Midwest rent increases could reflect tighter housing supply and potentially stronger job markets in these regions.

For investors, this suggests opportunities in markets with rising rents and stable economies, while cautioning against overexposure in rapidly cooling markets. The overall stability in national rents, despite regional variations, indicates a resilient housing market amidst economic uncertainties.

Washington, D.C. recorded the biggest rent increase, while Jacksonville posted the biggest decrease

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- (NASDAQ: RDFN) — The typical U.S. asking rent ticked up 0.6% year over year in September to $1,634, with several East Coast and Midwestern metros seeing the biggest increases. That’s according to a new report from Redfin (redfin.com), the technology-powered real estate brokerage. Rents were down 0.2% on a month-over-month basis.

The median rent has stayed largely flat for the past two years, ranging between $1,599 and $1,663—including sitting in a tight window between $1,630 and $1,650 for 16 of the past 24 months. In parallel, wages are growing around 4% year over year, showing that rent is more affordable now than it was two years ago.

“Rents remain stable nationally, but could look very different depending on where you live in the country,” said Redfin Senior Economist Sheharyar Bokhari. “On the East Coast and in the Midwest, there hasn’t been as much building activity, so asking rents are rising. Meanwhile, if you’re in a Sun Belt city where construction boomed following the pandemic, rents are now falling pretty fast.”

Washington, D.C. posts highest rent increase, as rents in Sun Belt metros continue to fall

Washington, D.C. posted the biggest rent increase of the 50 most-populous metros Redfin analyzed in September, up 12% year over year to $2,088.
