The supply of furnished apartments in and around Manhattan remains tight, with continued high demand and limited inventory. Rental prices continue to rise as a function of the narrow housing supply. The market also registers a steadily growing number of apartment requests, with the average client remaining in New York for slightly longer than in previous years, according to the report.

The New York City Furnished Apartment Market Report, using original graphs, charts and analysis, addresses the following topics and more:

• Average length of stay
• Average price by apartment type
• Percentage of apartments rented by type
• Percentage of apartments rented by neighborhood
• Price ranges by apartment type or neighborhood

New York Habitat has created a Furnished Apartment Rental Market Reports section on its website, where this and future reports will be available. The company continuously accumulates and analyzes data to provide up-to-date statistics about the market. The next New York Market Report, to be released at the end of the year, will contain cumulative second half and full-year results. The long-term goal is for this report to be an informative guide for owners who decide to lease, and vacationers and other renters who are looking for housing options during their stay in the Big Apple.
