Rent Growth
This tool lists the annual percentage increase or decrease for the median rent charged for the median single family home over different time periods.
You can re-rank the list by clicking on any of the blue column titles and/or list and rank micro markets in the same county, state or nationwide by narrowing your search using the drop-down menus.
In general, you’d like to see a market with strong rental growth rates (higher % increase) COMBINED with a strong Hot Market Score!
Only the markets you’re currently subscribed to are displayed. The results below may exclude stronger and/or weaker micro markets to which you are NOT subscribed.
NOTE: Micro markets have far fewer real estate transactions than their parent ‘Metro level’ market. Because of the fewer data points, micro market analysis is subject to more volatility and less reliability.
We recommend using the 3 or 5-year CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) columns for a more accurate/reliable rental growth rate history.
These micro rankings should be used as a general guide, NOT as ‘stand-alone’ indicators. It’s important to monitor the market’s strength or weakness at the larger, Metro level because micro markets tend to follow what happens at the Metropolitan level over the long-term.
