Market Overview

Wichita’s multifamily market continued to show strength in Q1 2025, with rent growth of 2.0% year-over-year and an occupancy rate of 93.5%—both outpacing national averages. Net absorption of 89 units more than tripled the 27 units delivered this quarter, underscoring a favorable demand-supply imbalance. Development has slowed significantly, with under-construction inventory down 30% from its recent peak, and further declines are expected through 2026. Submarkets like Northwest and Derby/Haysville led in both rent growth and occupancy, while lower-tier properties trailed. With moderate supply on the horizon and steady demand, Wichita remains one of the Midwest’s more resilient secondary markets.
