Chief Economist Greg Willett gives us the latest updates on rents, vacancy, & cap-rates. Throughout the country many apartment renters are going to need deeper pockets. After a slowdown during the early days of the pandemic, rents are rising again; the biggest such increase since 2016. Nationwide, average apartment rents were up 4.2% last month from May 2020 levels. In Phoenix apartment rents were almost 16% higher year-over-year, and rents rose at an annual rate of almost 15% in Riverside, Calif. Gateway cities, like New York and San Francisco have not been successful in moving rents up and are well below pre-pandemic norms.
