Does a charger raise rent? (survey of stated willingness only)
Stated willingness to pay, not a measured rent premium: the 2022 NMHC/Grace Hill Renter Preferences Report found 27% of renters were interested in EV charging stations and respondents said they would pay an additional $28.12 per month for the amenity.
This is a survey answer from the 2022 report (paywalled; figures quoted by trade press). It is national, not city-specific, and is not evidence that a given unit will rent for $28.12 more. We found no peer-reviewed study measuring achieved rent premiums for EV charging. Sources: Multi-Housing News – EV Charging Basics for Multifamily Owners (Sept 2, 2022), quoting the 2022 NMHC/Grace Hill Renter Preferences Report; Utility Dive – Demand soars for EV charging at multifamily properties (Dec 15, 2022) (accessed 2026-10-25).
