A recent report found that rental
units in Queens saw slight increases
in the new year.
MNS Real Estate released their January
2019 Rental Market Report, which
took a look at the trends in real estate
rental prices throughout January.
According to the report, average
rental prices in January 2019 increased
from $2,202.98 to $2,210.32, marking a
0.33 percent increase from December
2018. Compared to January 2018, average
rental prices have increased 1.67
percent year-over-year.
Compared to December 2018, average
rental prices for studios in January 2019
decreased from $1,834.60 to $1,783.31.
Average rental prices for one-bedroom
units increased from $2,094.52
to $2,117.10 and two-bedroom units
increased from $2,679.83 to $2,681.02.
Flushing and Ridgewood each
saw the largest increases in average
prices for one-bedroom units during
January 2019, raising 5.2 percent and
4.3 percent, respectively. The largest
decreases in average prices for studio
units were found in Jackson Heights
and Long Island City, decreasing 9.9
percent and 4.3 percent, respectively.
Neighborhoods that saw overall
increases in their average rental prices
in January 2019 were Ridgewood,
Flushing and Rego Park, which saw
a 7.9 percent, 1.88 percent and 0.93
percent increase. MNS Real Estate
attributes Ridgewood’s increase to
the lack of studio apartments on the
market, causing the average price to
increase more than usual.
The neighborhoods that saw
decreases in rental prices overall
included Astoria (-0.10 percent), Long
Island City (-2.13 percent), Forest Hills
(-1.74 percent) and Jackson Heights
(-2.11 percent).
The report found that despite the
decrease in rent prices, Long Island
City had the most expensive studio,
one-bedroom and two-bedroom units
in January 2019, with prices averaging
$2,435, $3,087 and $4,081 respectively.
While Ridgewood had the least expensive
two-bedroom units with prices
averaging $2,265 in January, Jackson
Heights had the least expensive
studios and one-bedroom units, with
pricing averaging $1,399 and $1,753
respectively.
