All I can say as a data point is all the houses near my hood now are > 4k/month rent in stucco 4S McMansion hood and my mortgage even though I am stuck with a higher rate will soon be close to 2k month without tax calculations/benefits (still have prop tax though).

I honestly don’t understand people renting a 4K a month property unless it’s intended to be a temporary thing. I think those kind of markets are a pretty poor gauge of the rental market.
