Curious about what our local market is doing when it comes to rentals? Rentwise is a member of the Southwest Chapter of NARPM, the National Association of Residential Property Managers, which conducts a vacancy survey quarterly to deliver important data on the trends we are seeing here in the Treasure Valley.
