Median asking rents are beginning to dip in many markets, according to new data from Redfin, a turnaround from the skyrocketing rent prices observed last spring. The median national asking rent fell to $1,937 in March, a 0.4% year-over-year decline. Median asking rent prices are lower than they’ve been in over a year, and the days of bidding wars for an apartment are coming to an end in many markets. It’s indicative of a correction from overinflated rent prices that resulted in part from a pandemic-driven demand for more space. But rents are still about 20% higher than they were when the pandemic began.
