Key aspects: 1.🎯 Measures true market rent growth 2.📊 Indicates market strength 3.💰 Guides pricing strategies 4.📈 Shows real-time market trends 5.🔄 Reflects actual achieved increases Did you know? According to Yardi's Q4 2024 Canadian National Multifamily Report, lease-over-lease rent growth dipped to 9.1% in Q3 2024, marking the first quarter under 10% in more than two years. The rate is down 90 basis points from Q2 and 4.0 percentage points off the Q3 2023 peak.
