Rent increases and high-end new construction have deteriorated the nation's supply of low-cost rental housing

Rents are falling the fastest in these metro areas, but increased affordability also goes hand-in-hand with dwindling supply

Asking rents posted their first year-over-year decline since 2020 in May, but not all U.S. cities are seeing a reprieve from soaring rental costs

Median U.S. rent saw its largest annual decline since March 2020 last month, thanks to fresh supply from multifamily developers and homeowners choosing to rent rather than sell their properties

Construction of new build-to-rent homes hit a record in 2022, with Phoenix, Dallas, and Detroit adding the most single-family homes for rent during the last five years

While both tenants and landlords can benefit from effective housing policies, many existing regulations thwart new housing development that could ultimately reduce rental costs

After dipping at the close of 2022, rents are once again beginning to climb. But does that mean the recent residential rent correction is already over?

Asking rents are on track for negative year-over-year growth by June or July, says housing analyst Bill McBride

Pockets of affordability that offer U.S. renters opportunities for homeownership are few and far between
