Rental Market Data

Rental Market Data (Multifamily & BFR) answers the first questions about a U.S. build-to-rent (BFR) or multifamily site: what is being built nearby, what comparable rentals ask after concessions, who lives within a few miles, and how local home values compare with the metro.

What it covers

• Supply pipeline in 9 metros (Atlanta, Austin, Charlotte, Houston, Huntsville, Las Vegas, Nashville, Phoenix, Tampa), from public county, city and state records: entitlement cases, state construction stormwater notices and issued building permits, each labelled by stage. Only issued, unbuilt permits are marked committed; built projects are labelled existing stock.
• Rents in 22 markets from the project's own weekly scrape of operator listing pages: asking and net-effective rent, concessions in weeks with the operator's wording, by floor plan, with the scrape date on every row.
• Public-record unit counts and year built (county property records, Florida DBPR, City of Austin permits), each with its source.
• Demographics and jobs for any U.S. address in 1, 3, 5 and 10-mile rings: U.S. Census ACS 5-year and 2020 counts, LEHD LODES jobs, BLS labor force.
• Home values: the Zillow Home Value Index (ZHVI) for a ZIP against its metro, attributed to Zillow. An index level for the area, not an appraisal of any property.

Nine read-only tools: a one-call site screen, supply by radius or by name, rent comps near a point, market rent medians, a community-name lookup, ring demographics, ZIP home values and a coverage check. Answers are capped at 50 rows and every source is attributed.

Not included: licensed third-party unit counts, owner and property-manager names, and sale comps.
