According to Molly Boesel, principal economist with CoreLogic, “Single-family rents rose at more than three times the rate from a year earlier and more than four times the pre-pandemic rate. Strong employment and low supply have pushed single-family rental vacancy rates to low levels and have contributed to the high growth in rents.”
