Same Store NOI financial
"Indexed Same Store NOI Growth (2017-2025)"
Same-store Net Operating Income (NOI) tracks the change in income from a company's properties or retail locations that were owned and operating for the entire comparison period, excluding new acquisitions or dispositions. It matters to investors because it isolates the performance of the existing portfolio—like comparing the same set of stores year-to-year—to show whether underlying operations are generating more revenue or cutting costs, rather than masking results with growth from new assets.
Net Debt / TTM Adj. EBITDAre financial
"Net Debt / TTM Adj. EBITDAre 5.4x 5.5x – 6.0x"
build-to-rent financial
"JBREC Nationwide Build-to-Rent Delivery Schedule"
Build-to-rent describes housing developments constructed specifically to be rented out and owned by a single investor or management company rather than sold as individual units. Think of it like a landlord building an entire apartment neighborhood to lease long-term: it matters to investors because it offers predictable rental income, professional management, and scale benefits that can reduce operating costs and vacancy risk, while being sensitive to interest rates, local demand, and housing policy.
unencumbered Assets financial
"Unencumbered Assets / Gross RE Assets 91.4% > 90%"
Resident First Look program financial
"Homes have been sold primarily to end users, including through our Resident First Look program"
ROAD Act regulatory
"Beginning January 2027, the ROAD Act limits certain MLS purchases"

The delivery schedule models future deliveries of currently under-construction and planned BTR communities using historical construction timelines and assumed start rates for planned communities. Capital market and macro forecasts could impact the delivery of planned projects. Build-to-rent data includes planned and under-construction communities with at least 25 units, less than 26 years old, and contiguous communities. The data does not quantify the impact of BTR communities flipping mid-stream to for-sale, or the impact of for-sale projects flipping to for-rent. The definition of BTR only includes communities that are exclusively for-rent and have more than 25 units. TBD projects have been entered into the database but require further investigation to determine the precise product mix.
