Asking rents skyrocketed during the pandemic moving frenzy because there weren\u2019t enough apartments to go around, then dipped in 2023 and early 2024 because builders ramped up construction to meet newfound demand. Now, the number of new apartments hitting the market is tapering off, and demand, while strong, isn\u2019t going gangbusters like it was during the pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cRental supply and demand are in lockstep, which is keeping rent growth at bay, but that may not last long,\u201d said Redfin Senior Economist <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.redfin.com%2Fnews%2Fauthor%2Fsheharyarbokhari%2F&amp;esheet=54203225&amp;newsitemid=20250210797676&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Sheharyar+Bokhari&amp;index=2&amp;md5=3f96dc75408fe96cd39d8e9b96f29fcd\">Sheharyar Bokhari<\/a>. \u201cApartment construction could be further hampered by new tariffs on building materials. At the same time, demand for apartments continues to grow as high mortgage rates and housing prices push homeownership out of reach for many Americans. Rents will tick up if demand starts to outpace supply in a meaningful way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>In Austin, asking rents are now $400 below their all-time high<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nIn Austin, TX, the median asking rent dropped 16% year over year in January to $1,399\u2014the largest decline among the 44 major U.S. metropolitan areas Redfin analyzed. It\u2019s now 22.2% ($400) below its $1,799 August 2023 record high.<\/p>\n<p>\nTampa, FL was home to the second largest decline (-8.2%), followed by Salt Lake City (-6.5%), Jacksonville, FL (-6.4%) and New York (-5%).<\/p>\n<p>\nAsking rents are falling quickly in parts of Texas and Florida because those states have been building more housing than other states. Florida has also been grappling with intensifying natural disasters, which has made some people hesitant to live there.<\/p>\n<p>\nRents rose most in Cincinnati (15%), Providence, RI (13.4%), Louisville, KY (10.5%), Baltimore (10.2%) and Washington, D.C. (8.8%).<\/p>\n<p><b>Asking rents are down across all apartment types, with 3+ bedrooms seeing the biggest drop<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nAsking rents fell across all bedroom counts for the seventh consecutive month in January.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe median asking rent for 3+ bedroom apartments dropped 1.7% year over year to $1,966. For 0-1 bedroom apartments, it fell 0.6% to $1,458, and for 2 bedroom apartments, it declined 0.4% to $1,674.<\/p>\n<p><b>In Los Angeles, asking rents rise for 3+ bedroom apartments amid wildfires<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nThere have been <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Fbusiness%2F2025%2F01%2F25%2Fla-county-rent-gouging-wildfires%2F&amp;esheet=54203225&amp;newsitemid=20250210797676&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=news+reports&amp;index=3&amp;md5=d44fcccfd97fb618dc64e35ff2e07f72\">news reports<\/a> of rental price <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.redfin.com%2Fblog%2Flos-angeles-fires-price-gouging%2F&amp;esheet=54203225&amp;newsitemid=20250210797676&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=gouging&amp;index=4&amp;md5=95ba1f00779b285b78b130ad25e21ce3\">gouging<\/a> in the wake of the Los Angeles wildfires amid a surge in rental demand from displaced families. Overall, the median asking rent in the Los Angeles metro area was flat from a year earlier in January, at $2,780. The median asking rent for 3+ bedroom Los Angeles apartments, however, did tick up. It rose 3.9% year over year\u2014the biggest increase since November 2023\u2014to $3,950. Though it&#8217;s worth noting that 3+ bedroom rents in Los Angeles were already starting to inch up prior to the fires. By comparison, asking rents for 0-1 bedroom Los Angeles apartments rose 0.6% year over year to $2,489, and asking rents for 2 bedroom apartments rose 0.8% to $3,175.<\/p>\n<p>\nLos Angeles has the third highest overall median asking rent in the country, meaning many renters still have a hard time finding affordable apartments even though rents aren\u2019t much different than they were a year ago.<\/p>\n<p>\nTo view the full report including charts, methodology and metro-level insights, please visit: <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.redfin.com%2Fnews%2Frental-tracker-january-2025&amp;esheet=54203225&amp;newsitemid=20250210797676&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.redfin.com%2Fnews%2Frental-tracker-january-2025&amp;index=5&amp;md5=74b6b4f30ef12c8247f91270c0cb8d63\">https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/rental-tracker-january-2025<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>About Redfin<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nRedfin (<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.redfin.com%2F&amp;esheet=54203225&amp;newsitemid=20250210797676&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=www.redfin.com&amp;index=6&amp;md5=eaef507378d102a45cf67c7a2f64dedf\">www.redfin.com<\/a>) is a technology-powered real estate company.
