Listing prices for apartments for rent in Buenos Aires continue to rise . During September, prices increased by 2.3% , bringing the cumulative increase in 2025 to 26.8%, a figure that is higher than the projected inflation rate of 21.6% for the same period.
This outlook comes despite a notable increase in the supply of properties on the market , which tripled since the low recorded in February 2023, following the repeal of the rental law in December 2023. However, monthly supply growth moderated, registering 0.6% in September , according to the latest report from the real estate platform Zonaprop.
Year-on-year, rents increased by 37.6% over the past 12 months , also exceeding the 31.3% inflation rate for the same period, although it remained below the adjusted Lease Contract Index (ICL), which reached 51.5%. The report highlights that smaller apartments have seen the greatest price increases so far this year.
Tenants' concerns are heightened in high-demand neighborhoods, where a studio apartment rents for an average of nearly $600,000 ( $598,063 ), a one-bedroom apartment is already approaching or well over $700,000, and a two-bedroom unit is priced at $937,432 per month .
Puerto Madero remains at the top of the ranking of the most expensive areas, with an average price of $1,177,143 for a one-bedroom apartment . It is followed by Palermo , at $768,382 , and Núñez , at $765,419 . These values reflect the persistent pressure on prices in the most coveted areas of the city.
In Palermo, a one-bedroom apartment rents for $768,382 on average.
At the other end of the spectrum, Lugano remains the most affordable neighborhood to rent , with a median price of $532,007 per month for a one-bedroom apartment. It's followed by Parque Patricios, at $616,266 , and Floresta, where the average price is $617,112 . These figures offer a relative respite compared to higher-cost areas.
When analyzing year-over-year price variations by neighborhood , Nueva Pompeya and Liniers were the areas with the largest increases , registering increases of 63.2% and 49.8% respectively. Paternal also showed a significant increase of 49.8% .
In contrast, Puerto Madero was the neighborhood with the lowest annual increase, with 12.4%, followed by Parque Chas (31.3%) and San Telmo (33.1%) , which suggests less volatility in their prices despite being high-value areas or areas of tourist interest.
Thus, it currently takes 20 years of leasing to recover the initial investment, 8.4% less than what was required a year ago.
In this sense, Lugano, Nueva Pompeya, and Parque Avellaneda remain the best neighborhoods for investors seeking rental properties. In these areas, yields are much higher than in other neighborhoods, with gross returns of 8.7%, 8.1%, and 7%, respectively.
On the other hand, Puerto Madero is the neighborhood with the lowest profitability, at just 3.3%. It is followed by Palermo (3.9%) and Núñez (4%).
