Rental Market Update March 2008

The Sacramento rental market appears to be heating up. Our website activity has seen listing views rise from just over 6,000 page views per day in mid February to over 9,000 page views as of March 6, 2008. That is a 50% increase in activity.

Our property managers are reporting increased traffic at our rental open houses.

Our three offices in the greater Sacramento area rented 60 properties in Feburary. This is a small amount higher than our monthly goal of renting 50, but it is almost 20% more.

We are seeing the result of the sluggish sales market. Forclosures are removing some housing stock and since buyers are sitting on the sidelines, they appear to be renting. That is good news for landlords.

I would imagine that we'll see that trend in quite a few markets as markets "correct".
