Here are a few graphs that show the following: while rents may continue to rise in 2015, they won't climb as much as they did in 2014. The gist is that supply is also increasing, since "the number of new units added to the market also reached a 13-year high, and even more units are headed onto the market this year." In theory, more apartments available to lease means less competition and lower rentsor at least smaller rent hikes. To be sure, these are nationwide statistics, and we're not sure anything can save Brooklyn at this point. [WSJ; previously]
