Phoenix rents rise, Some zip codes have seen 15-20% increase 2016

Rents are rising in Phoenix  



All you have to do is drive central Phoenix and see at least 15 apartments and condos being built in central Phoenix Area . Phoenix is growing and it really is showing along with  Phoenix Rents raising higher and higher. Anyone one living in central Phoenix can tell you rents are rising.

Rentalcafe.com  breaks rents down by zip code and half the valley rose 9% in 2015.  With all the new construction going on in apartments I don't see rentals prices going down. 

How much can a landlord raise your rent? There is effectively NO Limit on rental increases. NO rent control and the State has no interest in helping tenants by regulating rent.  

With rents on the rise is buying more affordable then renting? In markets where home prices are relatively affordable. 2016 may be a very good time for some renters to take the plunge into home ownership before home prices and interest rates rise even higher. The higher the prices and interest rates makes it tougher to afford and qualify. 


The City  has several down payment assistance programs, I call it Free Money for info contact:

Looking for Property management in Phoenix


 with Linda Wieczorek  

People at first always assume they don't need to hire a property manager because the property manager is just going to do something they can do themselves, and get paid for it. I can see how investors buying homes think this. Many of these same people end up in court for failing to comply with housing regulations, or dealing with disgruntled tenants.

What do you know about fair housing laws? How about lead paint disclosures? Eviction Processes? If you are the average Jim Homeowner then the answer is probably very little. A property manager knows all about all of those things and many other small details to ensure that you are compliant with all federal and state laws as well as protecting you and the tenant with a well formed and legal leasing agreement.

All the Single Ladies (Are Buying Homes)


All the Single Ladies (Are Buying Homes)


It doesn't come as a huge surprise that the largest share of home buyer households is married couples. In fact, 67 percent of all home buyers are married couples. The second most common group of buyers, however, is single females. According to the 2016 National Association of REALTORS® Home Buyer and Seller Generational Trends report, single females make up 15 percent of all home buyers, and this number creeps up when looking at older buyers—20 percent of buyers between 51 and 60 years of age and 19 percent between the ages of 61 and 69 are single females. These percentages are substantially higher than those for single males, who only make up 9 percent of all home buyers; the share of single made buyers is even lower in older age groups, only 10 percent of buyers between 51 and 60 are single males.

Story Springboard

Review NAR's most recent Home Buyer and Seller Generational Trends study to see the makeup of home buyers for each age group. Talk to a Realtor® to find out who is buying homes in your area. Speak with single female buyers to find out why they are purchasing a home now and what they are looking for.

Highlights -  Home Buyer and Seller Generational Trends

  • At 35 percent, buyers 35 years and younger continue to be the largest generational group of home buyers with a median age of 30 years old.
  • First-time buyers made up 32 percent of all home buyers, down from 33 percent last year.
  • Sixty-seven percent of buyers 35 years and younger were first-time buyers, followed by buyers 36 to 50 years at 26 percent.
  • The most common type of home purchased continues to be the detached single-family home, which made up 83 percent of all homes purchased.
  • Eighty-nine percent of Millennials, 87 percent of Gen X buyers, and 85 percent of Younger Boomers purchased their home through an agent.

Phoenix Multi Family Residential Investment HOT Sheet 


         Investing in Apartments - Cash Flow, Appreciation & More   VIEW  Phoenix Duplexes, Triplexes and Fourplexes For Sale

Why Apartment Investing?


Cash Flow, Cash Flow, Cash Flow, more cash flow with a multi unit or apartment then SFH . Owning more units increases the overall probability of success. 

Buying Real estate for investment, Not any real estate but real estate that will hold its value, apartment buildings. Apartment rents are still going up, the value of apartment buildings have the best chance of appreciating and are appreciating while everything else goes down. With the low interest rates you can have a positive cash flow. Mortgage rates are currently 4.5% to 6.5%.  Apartments have become a better investment for two main reasons. First, carrying costs (interest costs) have been going down. Second, income has been going up, substantially. For more information of multi - units  give me a jingle.
