Based on 41 price checks, Jun 2025 – Nov 2026. Each complex’s overall price trend is removed first, so this shows the seasonal pattern rather than the market moving up or down. That’s about one year of seasons, so treat it as an early read. Months marked “—” for specials had no specials data in the archived pages.

Good time to negotiate?

from advertised prices

2 of 3 signs point to room to negotiate.

  • Price dropped recently: yesThe starting price fell $166 in the last 30 days.
  • Bigger special than usual: yesNow 12 weeks free; over the last 6 months it was usually 10 weeks.
  • Cheap time of year: noNovember rents at this complex usually run 0.1% above the yearly average.

Signals, not guarantees. A lower price is never promised, but these are good reasons to ask for one, or for a bigger special.

Message you can send

Hi, I'm interested in renting at Blume on Central and could move in soon. I see your starting price is $1,159 with up to 12 weeks free. Latitude is working out to about $874 a month with its current special. Is there anything you can do to get closer to that, like a bigger special or waiving the application and admin fees? I noticed the price came down recently, so I'm hoping there's some flexibility. Could you also send me prices for 12, 13 and 15-month leases? Thank you!

How to use it

  • Ask for prices on several lease lengths and move-in dates.
  • If the rent won’t move, ask for waived fees or a bigger special.
  • Get any deal in writing before you sign.

A rough guide, not a quote: it assumes a typical all-electric apartment with central AC, at roughly 12¢ per kWh, before the utility’s fixed monthly service charge. Your bill depends on your plan (time-of-use plans can cost more or less), the thermostat, the unit’s age and sun exposure. Many complexes also bill water, sewer and trash separately.
