Hi Tim,

 

Our Mesa Rent Report has been updated with new data through June 2025.

The National Outlook:

 
Rents increased 0.2% in June, pulling the national median rent up to $1,401. 
  • But although prices are still inching up, month-over-month rent growth has slowed for three straight months, and year-over-year growth dipped for the second straight month, falling to -0.7%. 
  • Meanwhile, the multifamily vacancy rate nationally sits at 7.0%, an all-time high. 
  • All of our indicators are pointing to a soft market during what is typically peak moving season.

The Local Outlook:

 

Today, rent gains are concentrated in the Midwest and Northeast, while rent declines remain prevalent in the Sun Belt and Mountain West. In your market specifically:

  • Rents in Mesa fell 0.7% in June, compared to a 0.2% increase nationwide. Month-over-month rent growth in Mesa ranks #8 slowest among the nation's 100 largest cities.
  • Year-over-year rent growth in Mesa now stands at -3.8%, ranking #8 slowest in the nation.
  • Today the median rent in Mesa is $1,165 for a one-bedroom unit and $1,311 for a two-bedroom unit. And the citywide apartment vacancy rate stands at 7.3%, up 1.2 percentage points from this time last year.
