Houses with a 'for rent' sign in front of them
Rent is not getting cheaper for many Americans and could have a huge impact on what the Fed does in 2024.
  • The Federal Reserve Bank forecast three rate cuts in 2024.
  • Rent prices soared in 2023, potentially forcing the Fed to maintain higher rates.
  • Despite some things becoming cheaper in the past year, rent is not decreasing for many Americans.

There are growing concerns that the Federal Reserve Bank will not lower interest rates this year and one of the biggest factors could be how much Americans are paying for rent.
