Rental prices are beginning to decline, with rents for 0-2 bedroom properties dropping 0.5% year-over-year to $1,739 per month among the 50 largest metropolitan areas, according to Realtor.com’s most recent Monthly Rental Report, marking the first annual decline since 2020, when trend data began. Despite the nationwide decline, rents continue to rise in more affordable areas such as the Midwest and the Northeast, where demand has remained especially strong due to robust job markets and limited rental inventory.
