What’s Included in This Report

Understand rental community fundamentals

All of our reports are delivered via email with a short summary and posted in our client portal for easy access. Every quarter, here’s what you can expect in the Rental Communities Analysis and Forecast Report:

Burns Apartment Rent Index™

The Burns Apartment Rent Index estimates historical and current asking apartment rent trends in over 120 Markets. We use stabilized property level data from RealPage and aggregate up to the market level. Thus, this index mainly reflects institutionally owned apartments. These apartment rent forecasts are informed by demand (proxied by vacancy rates), affordability (relative to homeownership), and expected supply (multifamily permits).

Apartment REITs Earnings Summaries and Analysis

Every quarter, we track rent growth, turnover, occupancy, and NOI trends (and more!) based on how six REITs perform. We also summarize the earnings calls with high-level performance statistics.

Homeownership Premium

We measure the cost to own a home (mortgage payment + maintenance) less the average monthly rent in a market to illustrate the substantial premium homeowners pay vs. renters.

Burns Build-to-Rent Index™

We estimate historical and current build-to-rent (BTR) asking rent trends in over 40 markets, using a matched-plan approach for BTR communities that meet our vetting process and are stabilized (>90% occupancy). The index uses a sample of our current database and includes over 67.8K units.

Supply, Demand, and Occupancy

Our graphs and analysis reflecting supply, demand, and occupancy tell the story of top apartment and build-to-rent markets and help you understand what’s to come.

Burns Relative Cost of Dwelling – Apartments™

Our Burns Relative Cost of Dwelling – Apartments (BRCDA) was created to better analyze how much a market is underpriced or overpriced compared to the market’s own long-term apartment rent-to-income ratio. We attempt to account for other market fundamentals and any perceived permanent changes to a market’s demand and supply factors.
