Expert Statements

Scott Schaeffer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Independence Realty Trust

“We are pleased with our solid third quarter results, with same-store NOI growth of 1.6% and Core FFO per share of $0.29. Leasing momentum continued to build during the quarter. New lease trade-outs improved 310 basis points year over year, driving blended rent growth of 2.8%, while average occupancy held steady at 95.0% and resident retention remained healthy at 60.5%. We believe IRT is well positioned for stronger growth in 2027 as concessions burn off, our Wi-Fi program continues to ramp, and supply-demand fundamentals improve. We are also making meaningful progress on integration planning for our pending merger with Centerspace, which we believe will only build on our strength.”
