CINCINNATI, Ohio

The steady and stable nature of the Cincinnati apartment market was undoubtfully a benefit through 2020. The MSA saw a 2.7% annual increase in effective asking rents on new leases which matched the market’s norm for the 2010s decade. This growth put Cincinnati at #14 amongst the 50 largest markets for rent growth in 2020. Although occupancy was down 0.3 points from the prior year’s rate, the 4th quarter 2020 occupancy rate (96.4%) ranked #11 among the top 50 markets and #3 regionally. Only Q1 2020 saw net move-outs, although that’s typically the case in the local

market due to seasonal demand patterns, the three subsequent quarters saw huge demand and absorption totaled 1,563 units. That is 38% above the 20-year norm for annual absorption. During the peak of the pandemic challenges the job market declined 4.6%, this ranked Cincinnati 3rd best among the Midwest and was significantly better than the national average of 5.8%.

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

Prior to the pandemic, Cincinnati’s real gross metropolitan prod uct grew at an average annual rate of 1.8% from 2015 to 2019. During that same five-year period, job growth averaged 1.4% annually, with roughly 15,500 jobs added on average each year. In 2020, COVID-19 mitigation measures and limited business activity caused the local economy to contract as much as 9.7% year-over-year in 2nd quarter. In the year-ending 3rd quarter 2022, the metro’s inflation-adjusted economic output expand ed 0.3%. At the same time, the metro recorded a net gain of 1,400 jobs, expanding the employment base 0.1%. Cincinnati’s unemployment rate in August 2022 declined 0.5 points yearover-year to 3.8%, on par with the national average of 3.8%. During the past year, job gains in Cincinnati were most pro nounced in the Manufacturing sector followed by Trade/Trans portation/Utilities. Due to job losses stemming from the pan demic, Cincinnati’s current employment base now sits at about 1% below the pre-pandemic level in February 2020. Cincinnati, like many other Rust Belt markets, has long had a concentration in higher-paying manufacturing jobs and has been working to reinvent its economy as a high-skill, high-value manufacturing center. Further, Cincinnati is home to corporate headquarters for seven Fortune 500 companies.

• Cincinnati characteristically managed to escape the more extreme swings in apartment market performance seen over the last two years in the wake of the pandemic. Although apartment absorption cooled considerably in 3rd quarter 2022, Cincinnati apartment demand did not plumet to the degree seen in many other markets nationwide.

• As deliveries mount to a record rate over the next year, operators will be unlikely to sustain Cincinnati’s recent record high rent growth. There were 6,411 units under construction at the end of 3rd quarter, with 3,722

of those units slated to come online within the next 12 months. Although those deliveries will be spread more evenly throughout the Cincinnati market, new supply will test the depth of the Class A renter pool in a market that has still yet to recover all its pandemic-era job losses.

• During the year-ending 3rd Quarter 2022, median home prices in Cincinnati increased an average of 10.6%, landing at a median price of roughly $270,000.

• The local homeownership rate averaged 70.6% in the year-ending 2nd

• In 3rd quarter 2022, effective asking rents for new leases were up 11.8% yearover-year. That annual rent performance was above the market’s five-year average of 4.7%. Cincinnati’s recent annual rent change performance ranked #2 in the Midwest region.
