Key Findings from the 2025 SFR Market Report

  • Gross Rental Yields: The average annual gross rental yield for three-bedroom properties across 361 analyzed U.S. counties is projected at 7.45% for 2025, a slight decrease from 7.52% in 2024. This indicates stable yet slightly tightening profit margins for landlords.

  • Home Prices vs. Rents: Median single-family home prices have risen more than median three-bedroom rents in 54% of the analyzed markets from 2024 to 2025. This trend suggests increasing property acquisition costs that may outpace rental income growth in certain areas.A

  • Regional Opportunities: Counties such as Suffolk County, NY (18% yield), and Atlantic County, NJ (16.8% yield), are projected to offer the highest potential annual gross rental yields in 2025, presenting lucrative opportunities for investors.

Strategies for Investors to Capitalize on Current Trends

  1. Market Research: Focus on regions with high rental yields and favorable economic indicators. The Midwest and South, for instance, continue to offer attractive returns.A

  2. Financial Analysis: Evaluate properties where rental income sufficiently covers expenses, ensuring a positive cash flow. Tools like Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) loans can assist in assessing a property's income potential.

  3. Diversification: Consider spreading investments across multiple markets to mitigate localized risks and capitalize on varying regional trends.

Protecting Your Investments

  • Due Diligence: Conduct thorough inspections and assessments to avoid unforeseen expenses.

  • Legal Compliance: Stay informed about local regulations to ensure adherence to property and tenant laws.

  • Financial Cushion: Maintain reserves to cover unexpected costs or potential vacancies, safeguarding your investment's stability.
