Austin market rental trends report

Over the past 3–6 months, rental prices in the Austin metro have shown a modest softening or stabilization after a long period of rapid growth, with recent figures indicating slight month-to-month declines or flat pricing in average rents. This trend continues a broader pattern of easing rents that has unfolded over many months as apartment pricing has moved off its peak highs. The shift has been driven largely by a significant increase in rental inventory and multifamily development that outpaced renter demand, creating more options for tenants and exerting downward pressure on asking rents. Currently, the median rent across the Austin region is approximately $1,628 per month.

Georgetown

Over the past 3–6 months, rent prices in the Georgetown rental market have shown relative stability with only modest month-to-month movement, as average rents remain near recent levels after slight declines over the past year. Some sources indicate average rents in Georgetown are roughly flat to slightly down compared with earlier in 2025, reflecting a market that has eased from earlier peaks but not seen dramatic swings recently. This softer trend has been influenced by a combination of factors including increased rental inventory, shifting demand as nearby Austin’s rental market cools, and a broader balancing of supply and demand in the Central Texas region. Currently, the median rent in the Georgetown area is approximately $1,480 per month.

Round Rock

Over the past 3–6 months, rent prices in the Round Rock rental market have generally stabilized with modest month‑to‑month movement and signs of slight softening after prior peaks, with average rents showing flat or small declines in some reporting sources. This cooling trend follows a period of strong growth earlier in 2025, bringing rental pricing closer to equilibrium rather than rapid escalation. The shift has been driven by increased rental inventory in the area, more multifamily units coming online, and broader market moderation in the Austin‑Round Rock metro that has eased upward pressure on rents as demand and supply rebalance. Currently, the median rent in the Round Rock region is approximately $1,410 per month.
