I read the article this morning and think you are all missing one key point. The methodologies used by the surveys were different. The one’s quoting 3 to 4% increases were for the large complexes (like an Archstone community) while the one quoting 10% surveyed smaller complexes, duplexes and single family rentals. The key difference is that the higher increases are for the premium properties that are in higher demand by those who are looking for alternatives to home ownership rather than the singles complexes for 20 somethings and working class fmailies.
