For Single-Family Rentals, Low Vacancy Rates Mean Rent Growth

CoreLogic has released its February U.S. Economic Outlook, with the spotlight this month turning toward the single-family rental market, and specifically the relationship between vacancy rates and rent price growth. As explained by CoreLogic Chief Economist Dr. Frank Nothaft, single-family rental stock has been booming in recent years, with CoreLogic reporting an increase by more than one-third over the past decade. Digging deeper into the data, CoreLogic finds that as single-family vacancy rates decline, SFR rental prices have grown "nearly 3 percentage points faster per year than other consumer prices."

For more insights into the state of the single-family rental market, be sure to register for the 2018 Single-Family Rental Summit, scheduled for March 19-21 at the Renaissance Nashville Hotel in Nashville, Tennessee. The event will feature top subject matter experts and skilled SFR practitioners leading discussion panels and training sessions that will answer questions and offer viable solutions related to property acquisition and management, financing, strategies for small, mid-cap, and large investors, and new developments related to technology and professional services.
