Navigating The Rental Market: Strategies For Landlords And Tenants
Nathan Miller, Founder and CEO of Rentec Direct, industry-leading property management software for real estate professionals. getty In 2025, the U.S. rental market looks dramatically different than it did a decade ago, and even the past five years have seen considerable changes. We found that the national average rent is 31% higher than it was five years ago, based on data collected from more than 350,000 tenants who make rent payments through our property management software platform. To me, this indicates two things: 1. Housing affordability remains a growing challenge for many households across the country. 2. Rental properties continue to deliver strong income-generating value for investors, reaffirming real estate as a resilient asset in today's economy. So, in an increasingly complex rental market defined by volatility, policy changes, emerging opportunities and affordability pressures, how can landlords and tenants adapt? Tactics For Landlords To Stay Competitive And Resilient Strategic rent increases can help you balance affordability and profitability. Raising rents in small, consistent increments—rather than imposing sudden, steep rent hikes—can help landlords keep pace with rising operational costs, inflation and market changes while improving affordability, predictability and stability for tenants. Being transparent about the need for rent increases can build trust and reduce friction, often helping your tenants better understand and accept price changes. Stay compliant with any local or state regulations by providing clear, advanced notice of any increases—writing them into your lease agreements can often be a smart strategy. This strategic approach can position landlords as responsive partners in a challenging housing landscape while supporting long-term financial sustainability and tenant retention. Prioritize tenant retention to boost your bottom line. High turnover rates and extended vacancy periods will have the biggest impact on your bottom line—especially in a challenging market for renters. Even a brief vacancy means lost income, and turnover often comes with additional costs like cleaning, repairs, marketing and tenant screening that add up quickly. In a market where affordability is strained and demand may fluctuate, long-term tenants are your most valuable assets for maintaining consistent cash flow and sustainable profitability. Proactive communication and responsive maintenance are always important in keeping tenants happy and motivated to stay, but in competitive or uncertain markets, landlords may consider offering incentives that reward lease renewals or long-term commitments. In my experience, residents are most responsive to incentives that save them money or offer added convenience—think modest rent discounts, a covered parking space, appliance upgrades or perks like tickets to a local event or gym memberships. These investments in tenant satisfaction, loyalty and retention often cost far less than filling a vacant unit. Stay up to speed on local laws to protect your investment. Landlord-tenant laws are evolving rapidly, usually with significant variation not only between states but also between cities and municipalities. Compliance isn't optional—staying informed and ahead of any local or statewide regulations around rent control, evictions or other tenant rights is essential to operate responsibly and sustainably while avoiding costly legal issues. Take the time to familiarize yourself with key distinctions, like the nuances between rent control and rent stabilization. Understanding any legislation that may be coming your way will help you accurately apply the rules in your area, communicate clearly and transparently with your tenants and adjust your rental strategy accordingly to safeguard your investment. Tactics For Tenants To Stay Informed And Secure Build a strong landlord-tenant relationship. Turnover can be a major expense, so building and maintaining a positive, respectful relationship with your landlord can significantly benefit your rental experience. Any landlord values reliable, rule-abiding tenants who communicate openly, follow lease terms, care for the property and pay rent on time. When you establish trust and demonstrate responsibility, your landlord will be more likely to work with you on favorable terms like discounts or incentives. Prioritizing this relationship from the very beginning can lead to more stable—and potentially more affordable—long-term housing in today's challenging market. Prompt maintenance reporting benefits tenants and landlords. Rent increases most commonly happen as property upkeep and repair costs increase. Tenants who address maintenance issues early—before minor problems escalate into major damages—can minimize the overall cost burden on landlords and support the value and profitability of their rental property. Early intervention will not only keep your living space safer and more comfortable, but it also prevents more expensive fixes and reduces the risk of property deterioration. Steep, unexpected repair costs are often passed along in the form of sudden and significant rent hikes. A cooperative approach helps protect the property's value, which in turn contributes to a more stable and affordable rental for tenants. Master the art of lease negotiation. Signing a lease can be a stressful and competitive process, but don't forget that you always have the option to negotiate the terms of your lease agreement, especially in competitive or shifting rental markets. Before committing, carefully research local market conditions to make more informed decisions and enter negotiation conversations with confidence. You might not get everything you ask for, but many lease terms are often flexible—you might negotiate reduced rent, shorter or longer lease terms, waived fees, upgraded amenities or other perks. Before signing any lease, take extra time to thoroughly review all terms and conditions—especially those related to rent increases, renewal clauses or additional fees. Landlords and tenants both face unique challenges—and opportunities—in today's rental market. In 2025 and beyond, adaptability, open communication, informed decision-making and proactive relationships will be essential for navigating shifting conditions. A strategic, transparent approach on both sides can ensure greater stability and long-term success—even amid ongoing volatility and uncertainty.
