Our Values • Unshakeable Integrity • Genuine Care • Continuous Excellence • Standout Citizenship Seattle 5% Minn. 1% Northern California Chicago 7% 5% Denver 3% Las Vegas 3% Southern Nashville Carolinas California Phoenix 1% 5% 13% 8.2% Atlanta 12% Jacksonville Dallas 2% 3% Orlando Houston 3% 6% Tampa 10% South Florida 14% Percent of 4Q17 revenue, pro forma the Starwood Waypoint Homes merger Dear Fellow Stockholders: 2017 was a transformational year for Invitation Homes, bookended by our February initial public offering that raised$ 1.8 billion in gross proceeds, the second most ever by a REIT, and our November merger with Starwood Waypoint Homes, creating a combined company with current enterprise value of over $21 billion. We also executed well operationally in 2017, achieving high resident satisfaction and Same Store NOI growth of approximately 7%. Same Store revenue growth was almost 5%, while turnover remained low, a testament to the positive fundamentals supporting our industry and the value that we believe residents continue to find in our services and high quality homes in desirable locations. Our vision is to be the premier choice in home leasing by continuously enhancing our residents’ living experience, and we made great strides in 2017. Collectively with Starwood Waypoint Homes, we acquired 5,722 homes and sold 2,781 homes, further improving the quality and location of homes we offer our residents. We also continued revitalizing communities and supporting local vendors by renovating over 3,500 homes and investing over $200 million in home maintenance. Additionally, our merger combined the best of two innovative platforms, including cutting-edge technology and our proprietary ProCare Property Management model, further enhancing resident service. Looking forward, we see favorable supply and demand fundamentals for the single family rental business, particularly across our unique market footprint, which we believe positions us to achieve strong Same Store NOI growth again in 2018. We also expect demographics to be a long-term driver of household formations, with the leading edge of the millennial generation beginning to reach the stage where their lifestyle needs align with single family homes. We expect the quality of living experience we provide to make leasing with Invitation Homes an attractive choice for many of these newly formed households. We also believe that the quality of our portfolio will remain a differentiator. We are invested in in-fill suburban neighborhoods of high-growth markets, with over 70% of our revenue currently generated in the Western U.S. and Florida. We believe that our locations offer residents the opportunity to live the lifestyle they prefer in desirable neighborhoods close to their jobs and schools. In addition, we have unmatched portfolio scale and density, with over 4,800 homes per market on average, allowing us to provide better service to residents more efficiently. In addition, we are excited for our residents and stockholders to enjoy the benefits of our merger as we further integrate the two companies. We continue to think there could be upside as we discover and implement best practices. We also believe our combined resources will enable us to continue making a significant contribution to economic growth, job creation, and the vitality of the local communities we serve. As we focus on 2018, our operational priorities are centered on execution: 1. Continue to deliver strong operating results; 2. Further enhance the quality of service we provide, resulting in continued resident loyalty; 3. Execute our integration plan to deliver the value we indicated to all stakeholders; 4. Recycle capital to enhance the quality and location of our already best-in-class portfolio; and 5. Continue to make meaningful progress on the path to an investment grade balance sheet. I would like to specifically recognize our valued associates and personally thank them for everything they do for our residents and for helping make Invitation Homes a place to call “home.” I am tremendously proud of what we accomplished in 2017, and we at Invitation Homes are excited for the future of the company. I thank each of you for supporting us in this journey. Frederick C.

  • Single-Family Securitized Financing: a Blueprint for the Future? Laurie Goodman
    Single-Family Securitized Financing: A Blueprint for the Future? Laurie Goodman Abstract In November 2013, Invitation Homes LP, the Blackstone Document date: January 17, 2014 subsidiary that is the largest of the REO-to-rental Released online: January 17, 2014 operations, completed the first securitized financing of REO-to-rental properties (Invitation Homes 2013-SFR1). The private placement was very well received by the market, producing more favorable terms than many had anticipated. In this short article, we walk through why the deal was done, how it was structured, and what the financing means for the market. In November 2013, Invitation Homes LP, the Blackstone subsidiary that is the largest of the REO-to-rental operations, completed the first securitized financing of REO-to-rental properties (Invitation Homes 2013-SFR1). The private placement was very well received by the market, producing more favorable terms than many had anticipated. In this short article, we walk through why the deal was done, how it was structured, and what the financing means for the market. Motivation for the Deal The first question many people have is why this securitization was done. The answer is straightforward: Invitation Homes owns and manages approximately 39,000 scattered-site single-family rental homes, and property managers can generate a higher return for their equity investors if they use leverage. With home prices up nationwide by 22 percent from their 2011 low, and up even more where REO-to-rental investors are active, moderate leverage is needed to attract new money to the space and to keep returns attractive to current equity investors.

  • U.S. Single Family Rental— Institutional Activity in 2016/2017
    AMHERST CAPITAL MARKET UPDATE | AUGUST 2017 U.S. Single Family Rental— Institutional Activity in 2016/2017 INTRODUCTION Our November 2016 white paper, “U.S. Single Family Rental—An Emerging Institutional Asset Class*,” examined single family rentals (“SFR”) as an institution-owned, long-term commercial real estate (“CRE”) asset. It broadly discussed the U.S. housing market and single family rentals, and examined drivers behind the growth of single family rentals, and in particular, institutional SFR. This paper updates that analysis, and takes a closer look at more recent (2016–2017) activity in the institutional SFR space. 444 Madison Avenue 19th Floor New York, NY 10022 www.amherstcapital.com AMHERST CAPITAL MARKET UPDATE U.S. Single Family Rental—Institutional Activity in 2016/2017 page The update is split into 2 broad sections: 3–18 SECTION I—Institutional SFR Activity in 2016/2017 Summarizes institutional SFR activity in 2016—how much they are buying, and where and how it looks different from prior years. We also summarize the consolidation activity taking place in the institutional SFR space. 19–26 SECTION II—Update to Financial Markets Landscape for SFR Discusses the financial market landscape for SFR. In particular, we look at implied cap rates for SFR using share prices of publicly traded REITs, and provide an update on private label securitizations, including secondary market activity. We also dive deep into the first government-sponsored enterprise (“GSE”)- backed SFR loan, its subsequent securitization, and what that might potentially mean for the market. OUR FINDINGS SUPPORT THE CONCLUSIONS FROM THE NOVEMBER 2016 WHITE PAPER*: • Cap rates in single family rentals remain attractive.

  • Rethink Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac's Backing of Private Equity
    2017 NCRC Policy Agenda INVEST LOCAL ISSUE: Rethink Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac’s Backing of Private Equity Investors in the Single Family Rental Market In January, Fannie Mae agreed to back a 10-year, $1 billion loan to Invitation Homes (IH), the country’s largest owner of single-family rental homes and a division of the private equity firm The Blackstone Group L.P. This marks the first time that either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac has guaranteed the debt of an institutional owner of single-family rental housing.36 The number of single-family rental units increased 35 percent from 2006 to 2016,37 as Blackstone and other large institutional investors bought up hundreds of thousands of foreclosed single-family properties at rock-bottom prices and converted them to rentals. U.S. homeownership has also fallen to a 50-year low since the housing crisis amid strict lending standards, mounting student debt, and would-be buyers’ savings and credit diminishing during the recession. Even as millennials and first-time homebuyers now enter the market, they are having difficulty finding affordable houses to buy.38 IH homes are in the segment of single-family market suffering some of the tightest housing supply. The share of new homes 1,800 square feet or less (the typical size of entry-level homes) has fallen from an average of 34 percent of new single-family housing supply in 1999-2004 (prior to the housing downturn) to 21 percent in 2015, a nearly 40 percent decline (see Figure 8).39 IH single-family rentals average approximately 1,850 square feet and their portfolio of homes are in 13 desirable markets concentrated in the Western U.S and Florida.40 IH and other institutional buyers of single-family homes compete with homebuyers seeking affordable homes to purchase.
