"Single-family rents increased the most in metros with high employment growth in May 2019," says Molly Boesel, principal economist at CoreLogic. "Job growth in Phoenix, Orlando, and Las Vegas doubled the national average during May, stimulating increased rental demand in these markets and therefore driving rent prices upward."
