Multifamily asking rents recorded historic highs in 2022 but began to move south as the year concluded, recording another $4 drop to a national average $1,715 in December, according to the latest Yardi\u00ae Matrix National Multifamily Report.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Year-over-year growth declined by 80 basis points to 6.2 percent last month, the lowest level since May 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the year, national asking rents recorded a 6.2 percent uptick, the second-highest annual growth in 100 years after 2021\u2019s nearly 15 percent increase. But as the economy cooled in the fall and demand decreased, rents fell 0.2 percent in December and 0.6 percent in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The single-family rental (SFR) market is also seeing slowing. National asking rates increased 4.8 percent year-over-year in December, which was a decrease of 100 basis points from November. SFR rents dropped by $8 to average $2,083 last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith a variety of concerns about the economy and affordability, we expect rent growth in 2023 will be closer to typical levels,\u201d states the latest report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2023, Yardi Matrix expects asking rents should remain flat or fall slightly through the spring, when growth is normally strongest. Then rents will likely rise moderately, though nowhere near the dramatic levels of the last two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
