CoreLogic Says SFR Growth Slows to Lowest Rate in Four Years

According to the latest CoreLogic Single-Family Rent Index (SFRI), U.S. single-family home rental prices are experiencing slower growth in key rental metros which all experienced population spikes during the pandemic.  According to their report, annual U.S. rent growth registered a 2% increase in September, continuing a slowing trend that began in early 2024 but is well below the average annual rent growth of 3.5% that occurred in the decade prior to the pandemic.

“Single-family annual rent growth slowed in September to the lowest rate in over four years, and monthly rent growth posted a second month of below-seasonal trend growth, making it clear that single-family rent growth is decelerating…While about one-third of metros showed stronger rent growth than in the previous year, more metros showed decreases in rents than in the prior report…”  Said CoreLogic Principal Economist Molly Boesel.
