<a href="https://laohu8.com/S/Z">Zillow</a> Forecast Sees Rent Affordability Improve Further in 2026

Zillow Group said U.S. rent affordability has improved to a four-year high as rent growth cools and supply expands. The company reported the typical asking rent was $1,895 in January, up 2% from a year earlier, while the typical household now spends 26.4% of income on rent, the lowest share since August 2021. Zillow forecast multifamily rents to be essentially flat by the end of 2026 (-0.2%) and single-family rents to rise just 1.1%, citing elevated vacancies, new apartment completions and near-record levels of leasing concessions.
