A recent market analysis by Zillow Group Inc. reveals that rental listings allowing pets tend to lease faster, with pet-friendly properties typically rented out eight days sooner than those that do not allow pets. This trend is supported by the increasing number of renters with pets, which has risen to 58%, up from 46% in 2019. Texas emerges as the most pet-friendly state, with Austin, Dallas, and San Antonio leading in the share of pet-friendly rental listings. The analysis highlights that allowing pets not only attracts more interest but also provides a competitive edge for landlords, as pet-friendly listings receive 9% more views, 12% more saves, and 11% more shares on Zillow. Notably, in New York City, pet-friendly rentals are leased 26 days faster than others, the most significant gap among major markets.
