"A friend of mine is trying to rent out a nice loft on Seymour Street. One year ago people were fighting over one another to rent it. Now, with a slightly below market rent, she is getting a handful of people who are all looking at multiple units and will get back to her."

“A friend of mine is trying to rent out a nice loft on Seymour St (10 yrs old) and one year ago people were fighting over one another to rent it. Now with a (slightly below market rent) she is getting a handful of people who are all looking at multiple units and will get back to her. No doubt she will rent it but the quality of renter has gone down and it may sit for a few weeks waiting for the right person. The days of annual rent increases are over.”
