552,550 signed leases since mid-2019 — 87,922 of them in the last twelve months. Not asking prices, not estimates: the number a tenant actually signed for. Every rent we quote an owner traces back to leases like these.
By the month, or by the square foot — the per-square-foot view cancels out unit size, so what you are seeing is how pricey the area itself is.
A heat map of what rents where, by the month or by the square foot. The per-sqft version cancels out unit size, so colour means how pricey the area is.
This is the pool the map is drawn from. When we say a two-bed in your building rents for a number, this is where the number came from.

The screen every landlord runs on a tenant, run in reverse on a whole neighborhood.
Nearly every application asks for income of three times the rent — the standard test that a tenant can actually afford the place. Now turn it around: in some areas, households earn well past three times what landlords are charging. Rents there have room to move — and a building bought there has a raise built into it that the asking price does not know about. Knowing those areas before you buy is the point.
Where rents have room to move, by census tract — the incomes people actually report set against the rents actually charged. This is a client tool: it is part of what the representation buys.
