Report: Atlanta rent growth continues to outpace national average

CURBED ATLANTA (FEBURARY 25, 2019) – The city’s average rent price has climbed $73 since January 2018

As Atlanta becomes taller, denser, and arguably more exciting, the city’s rent prices, of course, follow suit.

In fact, a recent study published by RealPage indicates that, nationwide, only three markets are seeing rents climb faster than those in Atlanta.

Phoenix, Las Vegas, and Sacramento each trumped Atlanta’s 5.3 percent year-over-year increase, with 8.1, 6.6, and 5.6 percent upticks, respectively.

Atlanta shares the No. 4 spot on the list of fastest rising rents with Memphis and Greensboro.

Thankfully, Atlanta’s average rent price, $1,215—a $73 jump since January 2018—is still cheaper than the national average, $1,356.
