Rents in Charlotte up 0.1% Over Past Month – March Rental Report

273
After five consecutive months of rent declines, the national median rent price ticked up 0.3% in February, according to the latest data from Apartment List. This signals the start of the rental market’s annual upswing, and based on historical seasonal patterns we expect prices will continue to rise for several more months. But market conditions could prevent runaway rent inflation like we saw during the busy seasons in 2021 and 2022.
