Year-over-year rent growth at the year\u2019s midpoint was 13.7 percent, down 100 basis points from the end of 2021 and 150 basis points from the February peak of 15.2 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhile growth is moderating, we expect gains will continue to remain well above trend, with average asking rents increasing by 7.9 percent nationally by the end of 2022,\u201d states the forecast. However, the increases are far from 2021\u2019s record 14.7 percent increase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Property fundamentals continue to be exceptional, with demand driven by robust household formation, job growth, migration to suburbs and secondary markets, and the inaffordability of single-family homes for many would-be buyers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More than 900,000 new multifamily units are under construction nationally, with 420,000 expected to be delivered this year.
