4 terms

weighted average occupancy financial

"Second quarter weighted average occupancy grew 230 basis points year-over-year to 82.4%"

Weighted average occupancy measures how full a portfolio of properties or units is overall by giving larger properties or more revenue-generating units more influence on the average. Think of it like calculating a classroom’s average test score where bigger classes count more: it tells investors the true, size-adjusted level of occupancy across a group of assets and therefore the likely revenue, cash flow and operational efficiency of the portfolio.

basis points financial

"weighted average occupancy grew 230 basis points year-over-year to 82.4%"

Basis points are a way to measure small changes in interest rates or percentages, where one basis point equals 0.01%. For example, if a loan's interest rate increases by 50 basis points, it's gone up by 0.50%. They help people understand tiny differences in rates that can add up over time, making financial comparisons clearer.

same community financial

"June same community occupancy results:Weighted average occupancy of 83.0% improved 90 basis points"

“Same community” means a shared geographic area or group of people who live, work, or interact in similar ways and who are relevant to a company’s business, customers, employees or regulators. For investors it signals overlap in markets, customers or regulatory exposure—like several stores on the same street sharing the same foot traffic—so events affecting that community can meaningfully change revenue, risk or reputation across connected businesses.

net move-ins financial

"Month end occupancy grew 30 basis points sequentially underpinned by June having the highest monthly net move-ins"

Net move-ins is the number of new residents who move into a property or portfolio during a period minus the number who move out over the same period. It tells investors how quickly occupancy is changing—like watching the water level in a tub where the faucet represents people moving in and the drain represents people leaving—so it signals demand strength, tenant turnover, and potential rental revenue trends.
