💡HUD updates Fair Market Rents (FMR) based on how much typical rental prices are changing in each area. They look at what a moderately priced rental usually costs and adjust FMRs to match those local rent trends. Rising FMR generally indicates tightening rental supply or increasing demand.

🏘️For Fiscal Year 2027, the median county two-bedroom FMR in North Carolina is $1,145.
