Are rents going up in Charlotte NC?

[Don Jackson]

I just had a tenant move out of my property in Charlotte NC. I'll be talking to my property manager about raising the rent for the next tenant, but I want to get some feedback from the BP community. The rent has not gone up in over 5 years. It's a 3/2 with a big back yard in a decent neighborhood. Zip code 28214

My question: Are rents generally going up in Charlotte? Is the rental market hot, or slowing down?
