Topic:
Whether from the tech boom or agricultural tourism, many Washington markets have been experiencing incredible activity in rental markets. Record high rent growth together with a flood of new buildings have made this one of the most exciting and challenging times to be in the rental business. Will these trends continue? What about slower growing Washington counties? Come hear Zillow Senior Economist Skylar Olsen discuss what makes rental markets fascinating, particularly in the Pacific Northwest.
