Picking Up the Pace<\/h2>\n

Richmond\u2019s multifamily market has held strong after weathering last year\u2019s economic disruptions. Rents were up by 1.7% on a trailing three-month (T3) basis to $1,325<\/strong> as of August, on par with the national rate of growth. At the same time, affordability has drawn additional demand as the metro\u2019s population expands. While Lifestyle rents grew fastest, up 2.3% on a T3 basis to $1,584, the working-class Renter-by-Necessity segment also held positive, up 1.4%, to $1,184, during the same period.<\/p>\n

The metro added 61,500 jobs<\/strong> in the 12 months ending in June, with increases in nearly all sectors. Unemployment levels continued to trend downward, falling to 4.4% in July\u2014100 basis points less than the national figure. Future growth is on the horizon, with several employers announcing major expansion plans earlier this year. What\u2019s more, Virginia ended the fiscal year with a $2.6 billion budget surplus, which could spur additional growth.<\/p>\n

Multifamily development has taken off, with close to 11,500 units under construction<\/strong> at the end of August. Deliveries this year are anticipated to hit levels not seen in more than three decades. Investment has also picked up, with $789 million in transactions closed year-to-date through August, more than double the volume of the same period last year. Sales prices averaged $133,973 per unit, nearly one-quarter less than the national figure.<\/p>\n
