The Independent Landlord Rental Performance report is a real-time look at how well non-institutional operators are collecting owed monthly rental payments. Utilizing data provided by property management software RentRedi, these findings have a reduced sample size of 49,745 units, which are analyzed and reported by Chandan Economics. Where sample size quality meets sufficient reporting standards, data are offered from March 2020 forward, and new trends and analyses are reported monthly. Performance trends are discussed nationally, as well as along the lines of residential property type and geography.

​

Notably, these data track a segment of landlords that are underrepresented in leading market samples. For example, while the National Multifamily Housing Council’s (NMHC) Rent Tracker holds an unmatched sample size (11+ million), it represents exclusively the professionally managed segment of the rental housing sector. Data contained within this report offer a contrasting set of statistics that may allow investors, brokers, academic researchers, and policymakers a benchmark to compare the performance and health of independent landlords against institutional operators tracked by NMHC.
