MASSIVE VALUE ADD POTENTIAL (CONTINUED) UP-TRENDING LEASE TRAJECTORY The subject is also experiencing an outstanding lease trajectory as loss-to-lease has steadily diminished since 2015. The most recent leases are achieving 3%+ above asking rent which is a drastic improvement over the rent roll average of -2.5%. This positive lease trend underlines the untapped revenue growth potential at The Park at Buckingham. EMBEDDED ORGANIC RENT GROWTH The last 75 leases (moved in since July 2018) kick- started the gain-to-lease trend at an average of 0.71% collected rent above asking rates. With the most recent leases achieving 3%+ above asking rates, new management should have room to raise the market rent threshold organically. As this trend continues to bake into the rent roll, Year 1 collections should grow substantially for the next investor.
