The prediction stated rents would increase by approximately 3% annually, in line with average inflation. While inflation was around 2.4-2.9% in 2025 and early 2026, rent growth varied significantly throughout the period. Rent increases were close to 3% in early 2025 but slowed considerably to around 1.1%-1.2% by late 2025, and then showed annual growth of 2-3.6% in early 2026. This inconsistency means the prediction of a steady 3% annual increase was materially different from the observed outcomes.
