Washoe County ranks 422 (out of 449 U.S. counties) for gross annual rental yield

ATTOM Data Solutions recently released its Q1 2018 Single Family Rental Market report, which ranks the best U.S. markets for buying single family rental properties in 2018. Despite Reno, Nevada’s current record-high rental rates, the actual yield on SFR rentals ranks near the bottom of the list — coming in at 5.2% annually. That’s because home prices are also at record highs for our market.
