In 2023, the output of imputed rents of owner-occupied dwellings in the US stood at approximately 1.96 trillion USD. From 2024 to 2028, the forecasted figures show a steady annual increase, with notable year-on-year growth rates. From 2024 to 2025, there is an estimated 3.27% rise, followed by 3.13% from 2025 to 2026. The trend continues with a 3.01% increase from 2026 to 2027, and a 2.90% rise from 2027 to 2028.

Looking ahead, several trends may influence future projections. Key areas to monitor include housing market dynamics, shifts in homeownership rates, economic conditions affecting household incomes, and any changes in interest rates or housing policies. These factors could significantly alter the trajectory of imputed rent values in the coming years.
