Albuquerque’s multifamily sector showed modest growth in Q1 2025, with average asking rents increasing by 1.4% year-over-year and vacancy hovering just below 6%. The Northeast Heights and West Mesa submarkets led absorption, driven by strong renter demand and limited new deliveries. Construction has slowed significantly, with fewer than 400 units expected to come online this year. With affordability remaining a core strength, Albuquerque continues to attract both renters and investors seeking steady, lower-volatility returns. The city’s role as a healthcare, research, and aerospace hub further bolsters long-term multifamily demand.
