  8 2 Anecdotally, I think prices are going down. When we were looking at apartments a couple months ago, I was amazed at how many really nice places were totally within our price range. Apartment-owners know that collecting a lower rent beats an empty unit, and the recession has helped check some of the ridiculousness.

It's probably worth noting that I got to see a spreadsheet of open units where one of the columns was "Reason vacated". About 40% were empty due to their tenants being laid off.

  2 0 Generally going down, but it depends what part of the rental market you're interested in... I just signed papers on a luxury studio that ended up being 12.5% more expensive than the bare bones studio I've been living in for the last year. It's a larger space, better location, tons of amenities... And if I'd tried to find something cheaper than what I had been living in I probably wouldn't have... As far as I can tell, the high end of the market is dropping hugely, but low end and is holding steady. Of course, the type of apartment you're looking for is a factor as well, It seems that two beds have dropped more significantly than studios and one-beds.
