Rental Health Index
The Rental Health Index is an analytical tool created for property investors and others interested in real estate trends. The Index provides information on vacancy rates, rent changes, capitalization rates, appreciation and job growth for 75 US cities. Federal data helps determine where cities rank in terms of their property value. The city rankings allow investors to make informed decisions.
