Sentiment · FY2026 Q2
Invitation Homes reported 8.8% revenue growth in Q1 2026 but core FFO per share was roughly flat year-over-year with AFFO down 2.6%, pressured by tough Q1 2025 comps and elevated expenses. Management maintained full-year 2026 guidance, noting operating performance was tracking closely to internal expectations. The company completed its $500 million buyback and authorized a new $500 million program, while new lease rates turned positive in April with occupancy reaching 97.1%. The disposition strategy ran well ahead of expectations as supply moderation began to materialize in third-party data.
