March marked the 13th-straight month in which asking rents barely decreased or increased, with a year-over-year change of less than 1% during each of those months.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nRedfin economists have been saying for months that it\u2019s only a matter of time before rents tick up again. That\u2019s because apartment construction is slowing, which will likely motivate landlords to raise rents because there won\u2019t be as much supply, meaning they won\u2019t be competing as fiercely for tenants. Now there\u2019s a new twist that could expedite this process: tariffs.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cAmerica gets a lot of building materials from other countries, so tariffs will make building apartments more expensive. That could further hamper apartment supply, causing rents to jump,\u201d said Redfin Economics Research Lead Chen Zhao. \u201cTariffs could also drive up rents by increasing demand. People may opt to rent instead of buy homes because the turmoil around tariffs has fueled widespread economic uncertainty.

Federal workers in Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C. have been heavily impacted by mass layoffs instituted by Elon Musk\u2019s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).\n<\/p>\n<p>\nTariffs could have a big impact on the rental market partly because nearly one-quarter of America\u2019s softwood lumber\u2014a key material in building apartments\u2014comes from Canada, according to the National Association of Home Builders.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDuring the pandemic moving frenzy, rents skyrocketed because there weren\u2019t enough apartments to meet surging demand. Builders then ramped up construction, which caused rents to fall in 2023 and early 2024 because landlords were competing for tenants. There are still a lot of newly built apartments coming on the market, which is keeping rent growth at bay. But renter demand is strong due to high homebuying costs, which means rent declines are also limited\u2014for now.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Asking rents are nearly $400 below their record high in Austin, but posting double-digit increases in Cincinnati<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nIn Austin, TX, the median asking rent dropped 10.7% year over year to $1,420 in March\u2014$379 below its record high. That was the largest decline in percentage terms among the 44 major U.S. metropolitan areas Redfin analyzed. Next came San Diego (-9.7%), Portland, OR (-7.8%), Minneapolis (-7.8%) and Raleigh, NC (-6.8%).\n<\/p>\n<p>\nTexas was one of the top homebuilders during the pandemic building boom, which is one reason Austin is seeing such a large decline in rents. The recent declines mean Austin is no longer the state\u2019s most expensive big city for renters.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAsking rents rose most in Cincinnati (12.1%), Providence, RI (11.4%), Cleveland (10.6%), Washington, D.C. (8.5%) and Baltimore (8.4%).\n<\/p>\n<p>\nRedfin Premier agent <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.redfin.com%2Freal-estate-agents%2Fcody-brownfield&amp;esheet=54237256&amp;newsitemid=20250414563289&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Cody+Brownfield&amp;index=5&amp;md5=9f445aed719843ea189df639d0073993\">Cody Brownfield<\/a> said Cincinnati has seen an influx of new apartments, but not enough to meet demand, which is one reason rents are climbing.
