As the housing boom ended rents for single-family homes also crashed, going from annual growth of better than 2 percent in late 2007 to -3 percent by the end of 2009. But they began to bounce back long before home sales and prices did so, climbing rapidly into the 4 percent growth range and remaining there for several years. The growth in rents and decreasing rental vacancies spurred a surge in multi-family construction . Housing permits and starts for the sector have frequently been the main drivers of residential construction numbers. At the same time the tide of foreclosures caused many single-family properties to convert to rentals and many former homeowners to become renters as large and small investors stepped in to buy houses out of lender inventories.
