“Dear PoPville,

I’m wondering what people are seeing as far as whether the “rental bubble” in DC is, if not popping, at least deflating a bit. Currently apartment hunting and wondering if, perhaps without the normal influx of summer interns or fall students/new young professionals, prices will go down in any significant way. Don’t want to get locked into a lease with the normal outrageous rates if owners/property managers will start to bring prices down.
