This slight decline ended the nine consecutive months of positive to flat rent increases following a period of flat to declining monthly performance in the second half of 2025 and early 2026. On an annual basis, rent growth accelerated to +1.5% in September 2026 from +1.3% in August and was up measurably from the +1.0% reading recorded one year earlier.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe August 2026 national average was initially reported as a -0.03% month-over-month decrease and has been revised upward to 0.0%.<\/p>\n<p>\nWhile apartment rent growth typically slows in the fall leasing season, the -0.08% month-over-month decline recorded in September continues the recent pattern of fall rent decreases observed since 2024. However, this year&#8217;s pullback was considerably milder than the declines of 0.2% reported in both September 2024 and September 2025, which may suggest some improvement in pricing conditions. Annual rent growth continues to trend higher, though elevated supply levels remain a constraint on pricing momentum nationally.<\/p>\n<p>\nRegional rent growth was uniformly down in September. Monthly declines were most pronounced in the Mountain region with a -0.3% decrease. The other regions all also posted declines: the South at -0.02% and the Pacific at -0.08%. Less significant declines were posted in the Northeast and Midwest regions, down -0.7 and -0.6%, respectively. On an annual basis, regional performance remained uneven. The Pacific, Midwest and Northeast recorded the strongest year-over-year rent growth, at +2.4%, +2.3% and 2.2%, respectively. In the South region, annual rent increases were subdued at +0.2%, but positive for the first time since September 2025.<\/p>\n<p>\nIn contrast, rents declined year-over-year in the West by -0.1%. While still negative, the Mountain region significantly trimmed its annual decline over the summer. However, in September annual rent declines deepened. Performance across Western markets continues to diverge, with supply-heavy Mountain metropolitan areas facing greater pressure than more supply-constrained Pacific markets.<\/p>\n<p>\nAt the metropolitan level, rent growth was less widespread in September than in August, with 8 of the top 50 markets posting month-over-month increases, 7 with unchanged rents and 35 recording declines. Indianapolis led monthly rent growth with a +1.0% increase, followed by Louisville at +0.8% and Orange County at +0.2%. Thirty-five major markets recorded monthly rent declines, led by Salt Lake City at -0.8% and San Antonio, Columbus, Seattle, Raleigh and Boston all at -0.5%, with several others posting smaller decreases.<\/p>\n<p>\nOn an annual basis, San Francisco continued to outperform, posting rent growth of +12.8%, followed by San Jose at +8.2%, Norfolk at +5.8% and East Bay at +5.4%. Meanwhile, markets experiencing the largest supply\/demand imbalance remained under pressure, led by San Antonio with a -1.8% annual decline, followed by Las Vegas at -1.3%, and Denver and Houston, both at -1.0%, reflecting that new supply continues to outpace demand.<\/p>\n<p>\nRegionally, the breadth of monthly rent growth narrowed in September, though year-over-year performance strengthened across all regions, continuing to vary widely and remaining closely tied to local supply conditions. While most markets have moved past peak construction activity, a substantial, though gradually easing, inventory overhang continues to moderate rent growth nationally as the summer leasing season concludes.<\/p>\n<p><b>About CoStar Group<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nCoStar Group (NASDAQ: CSGP) is a global leader in commercial real estate information, analytics, online marketplaces, and 3D digital twin technology.
