In most countries the rent price indices are a part of the overall Consumer Price Index (CPI) or Harmonised Indices of Consumer Prices (HICP) calculations, hence an inflation-adjusted value is not provided. The goal of the Rent Price Index is to provide a high-level overview of the trends of rent prices.
