The St. Louis metro multifamily sector is finding firmer footing in Q3 2025 as vacancy eased to 10.1 percent and average rent rose 3.0 percent year-over-year to about $1.49 per square foot (~$1,333 per unit). With just 1,134 units delivered so far this year and 1,931 still under construction, supply pressure has largely subsided. Absorption of 1,688 units year-to-date underscores resilient demand particularly across active submarkets like Ballwin and St. Charles County.
