What the price-to-rent ratio is

The OECD price-to-rent ratio compares nominal house prices with the rent-price index. A higher reading means purchase prices have outpaced rents relative to the index history. Latest: 102.4 in 2025 Q1.

This is an index of prices versus rents, not a typical asking rent and not a purchase price. From 1986 Q1 to 2025 Q1 (157 quarters): latest 102.4 (2025 Q1), previous 102.2 (2024 Q4); low 70.5 (1998 Q4), high 118.1 (1990 Q4).
