How do we measure rents? To track rents, we use the Zillow Rent Index (ZRI). The

ZRI is the midpoint of estimated rents in a given region. Half the estimated rental prices

are above this number and half are below.

What is the Breakeven Horizon? The Breakeven Horizon in the number of years you

must live in a home before owning the same home becomes more financially advantageous

than renting the home. For example, if ’City X’ had a Breakeven Horizon of 5.5 years,

it is financially better for you to rent in ’City X’ unless you plan on living there for more

than 5.5 years.
