===Comparison approach=== The comparison approach matches rents in tenant-occupied housing units to similar owner-occupied housing units. If the units are identical, the owner-occupant's imputed rent is the cost they avoid in renting the other unit. In the United States, the [[Bureau of Labor Statistics]] uses a version of this approach to estimate changes in the price of owner-occupied housing.<ref>{{cite web |title = Measuring Price Change in the CPI: Rent and Rental Equivalence |url=https://www.bls.gov/cpi/factsheets/owners-equivalent-rent-and-rent.htm |accessdate=6 October 2023 |date= 8 September 2023 |website = U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics}}</ref>
