Forward Guidance

The Company is providing revised 2021 guidance based on its current and expected views of the single-family rental market and general economic conditions.

Positive Outlook

  • $0.03 related to our Same-Home portfolio reflecting strengthened core revenues outlook primarily driven by strong occupancy and leasing results.
  • $0.02 related to our Non-Same-Home portfolio reflecting strengthened core revenues outlook primarily driven by strong occupancy and leasing results as well as partial year impact from our expanded external growth program, net of financing costs.
  • Since our first quarter update on May 6, 2021, we have increased our external growth expectations by approximately $300 million to $1.4 billion to $1.6 billion, which now includes between 3,500 and 4,000 wholly-owned inventory additions as well as investments into our wholly-owned land and development pipeline and pro-rata share of joint venture investments.
  • When combined with 100% of gross joint venture investments, we now expect to deploy total gross capital of $1.6 billion to $1.8 billion for the year.

Challenges Ahead

  • The extent to which the pandemic may continue to impact us and our residents will continue to depend on future developments.
  • These include resurgences, new variants or strains, such as the Delta variant, the impact of government regulations, vaccine adoption rates, the effectiveness of vaccines, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others.
  • We will continue to monitor these events which may result in future revisions to our guidance estimates.
