The Charlotte Rental Market Trend Report analyzes four key data points: active listing growth, renter lead growth, average renter leads per property, and the average rent price for two-bedroom listings.
The first half of 2020 in Charlotte saw decreases in active listings from March to April – when most states imposed strict lockdowns. However, May and June showed a healthy recovery followed by a dip in July. Active listings continued to decrease and increase the rest of the year. January 2021 saw the highest increase in listings at 79% month-over-month – this is the largest reporting period. Since then, listings steadily decreased, with April reporting a dip of 32% in active listings. May jolted back up with a 65% increase, almost reaching January’s level of active listings.
Renter leads in Charlotte were volatile throughout 2020, with expected declines in February through April. However, a strong jump in May at 163% showed a rebound for the start of the summer. The highest increase in leads occurred in January 2021 at 180%, and the biggest decrease occurred in April 2020 at 87%. The average leads per property in Charlotte have been decreasing in 2021, but May saw a turn around with a 97% increase.
Year-over-year, the average rent amount for a two-bedroom listing in Charlotte is down by over $100 as of June 2021. Charlotte’s average rent spiked in May of 2020 at $1,870, its highest average in the reporting period, while its lowest rent was $1,092 in October of 2020. Overall, rent averages in Charlotte have remained pretty steady over the reporting period following normal seasonality trends.
