The May 2025 Rental Market Summary provides key insights into rental activity and pricing trends. Active listings increased to 5,361, reflecting a 9.1% rise over the prior month and a 20.3% increase year-over-year. Closed rentals reached 2,260, marking a 10.1% monthly gain but showing a 7.3% decline compared to last year. New rental listings totaled 3,406, while under-contract rentals improved 3.6% month-over-month. The average days on market (DOM) held steady at 45, down from prior quarters, indicating stronger demand. Price-per-square-foot data showed stability across most categories, and months of supply analysis revealed tighter conditions in lower price ranges compared to higher-end rentals. Overall, the data reflects a rental market with increasing supply but steady demand, supporting moderate competition and varied affordability across prices.
