Manhattan apartment rents jumped last month, extending a surge in costs as availability tightens during the market’s peak season.
The median monthly rent rose 3.3 percent in June from a year earlier to $3,300, according to a report today by appraiser Miller Samuel Inc. and brokerage Douglas Elliman Real Estate. A separate report by brokerage Citi Habitats showed the average rent reached $3,470, the highest in records dating to 2002.
