2025 Rent Increase Survey - Milwaukee vs the US

Every year in May survey landlords here in Milwaukee about their plans for rent increases. (If you are local, I will share the results at the RPAWI meeting on May 19th in Wauwatosa). We have a chronic housing shortage here and the results can be felt in both the retail and rental markets.
But we also see a lot of markets slipping into downturn mode, especially in the Sunbelt. Florida, Texas and Arizona see inventory in excess of 6 months, some cities have more than 10 months worth of supply, which is basically a complete 180 from a red hot sellers market to an ice cold buyers market.
How is this impacting rents, vacancies, turnaround times and ultimately: rent increases for 2025?

Thanks for sharing these insights! It’s fascinating to see how regional dynamics are shifting so quickly. With Milwaukee’s ongoing housing shortage, it’ll be interesting to compare how local rent trends stack up against those cooling Sunbelt markets. Looking forward to the survey results at the May 19th RPAWI meeting!
