Apartment Rents Are Rising

August 25, 2011 by Jed Smith, Managing Director, Quantitative Research · 1 Comment
Filed under: REALTORS® Confidence Index, Renting
Realtors® have been reporting rising rents on a year-over-year basis. In recent years total housing production (single family, multifamily, manufactured housing) has been running in the neighborhood of 600,000 units, while the demand for new space due to housing formations, obsolescence of the existing housing stock, and second homes has been in the neighborhood of 1.35 million units. We are continuing to run a housing deficit.
Currently the housing markets are perceived as slow—both in terms of price and sales. However, unmet demand for new units is building on an ongoing basis, so it appears that there continues to be the potential for rent increases, and some of this increased demand should eat into the foreclosure and shadow inventories in future years.

Finding Rentals is Getting Harder & Harder

The calls comes in ” I need to find a rental. I need 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, would like to have a 2 car garage, I have a dog & a cat and I need it asap!” Well that’s getting harder & harder to find since more & more people have lost their home, which has ruined their credit leaving renting as their only option. We’ve changed our website to better assist clients in the rental search.

Some of these rentals go so fast so our clients need to also keep a close eye on the market as well. Now at www.NaplesNative.net we offer a search of All Rentals, Annual Rentals & Seasonal Rentals…Pretty generic but for some folks it gives them plenty to choose from. Then to get down to the specifics we have even narrowed it down to Price so if you need a rental beteen $1500-$1200 for example, then you can see only the ones in that price range. Maybe we have someone only looking to rent in Bonita Springs west of 41 in the 34134 zip code, then we have that search as well. Of course, it’s a matter of having one of our team members help you with the specifics of each home and your needs to find the right one, but at least getting there won’t be touch a tedious process.

We hope to see you on out site and in our office so we can offer great service. Call Emily Cox Antonas 239-465-9596 for more information or to sign up for automated updates and searching capability.
