Rental market reports vary on what the true “median rental price” is in Sonoma County. Zillow has it at $2,500, Apartmentlist.com  $1,984, and Rentcafe.com $1,892 as of June 30.

The increase in prices, tied to everything from a lack of affordable housing to an uptick of vacation rentals entering the market, is predicted to level off in the next year.

According to Scott Gerber, managing director of Bradley Commercial Real Estate a number of new constructions including 156 units built in 2017, 651 units under construction and 1,300 waiting for approval, will help to stabilize rent prices.

While the debate goes on, let’s take a look at what $2,500 can rent  you right now in Sonoma County.
