Median Lease went slightly below 3-month average of $1,100 and nothing to worry right now. Average Lease came down from a sudden surge of 10% last month, so this is also normal. Days on Market (DOM) increased by 7.32% to 41 days. This is the 2nd month in a row it increased by 7+% and worth watching further.
Rent Check Quotient increased 1%. In the healthy housing market, the RCO™ is at the range of 30% – 36%. So, the mumber of leases is still on the high side and it needs to be watched closely.
Rent Check Quotient™ (RCQ™) is derived by dividing the # of leases by the # of closed sales
