The Company considers NOI to be a meaningful non-GAAP financial measure for making decisions and assessing unlevered performance of its property types and markets as it relates to total return on assets, as opposed to levered return on equity. As properties are considered for sale and acquisition based on NOI estimates and projections, the Company utilizes this measure to make investment decisions, as well as compare the performance of its assets to those of its peers. NOI should not be considered a substitute for net income, and the Company’s use of NOI may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company calculates NOI before any allocations to noncontrolling interests, as those interests do not affect the overall performance of the individual assets being measured and assessed.

CORPORATE PRESENTATION, JUL Y 23, 2025 | 23 Definitions AVERAGE EFFECTIVE MONTHL Y RENT PER HOME represents the average effective rent (net of concessions) for in-place leases and the market rent for vacant homes. BLENDED NET RENTAL GROWTH RATE combines new lease and renewal lease growth rates. New lease growth rate refers to the difference in rent a new occupant of a unit is paying compared to the rent the unit’s previous occupant was paying on a net effective basis. Renewal lease growth rate refers to the increase or decrease in monthly rent in a renewed lease compared to the previous lease on a net effective basis. CORE FFO AND ADJUSTED FFO (“AFFO”) Core FFO is defined as FFO, as adjusted for certain items to facilitate comparative measurement of the Company’s performance over time. Core FFO is presented solely as supplemental disclosure that the Company’s management believes provides useful information to investors and analysts of its results, after adjusting for certain items to facilitate comparability of its performance from period to period. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measures that is not intended to represent cash flow and is not indicative of cash flows provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. As there is not a generally accepted definition established for Core FFO, the Company’s Core FFO may not be comparable to the Core FFO reported by other REITs. A reconciliation of net income per share to Core FFO and Adjusted FFO in dollars and per share are included in the financial tables accompanying our quarterly and annual filings. NET DEBT -TO-EBITDA (NORMALIZED) Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (Normalized) (Adjusted EBTIDA (Normalized)): The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA (Normalized) as Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted to reflect the effects of non-recurring property transactions. In the case of acquisition properties, Adjusted EBITDA (Normalized) would be calculated based on Adjusted EBITDA plus the Company’s income (loss) for its ownership period annualized and included on a trailing twelve month basis. In the case of disposition properties, Adjusted EBITDA (Normalized) would be calculated based on Adjusted EBITDA minus the disposition property’s actual income (loss) on a trailing twelve month basis. In the case of joint venture transaction properties whereby the Company acquires a controlling interest and subsequently consolidates the acquired asset, Adjusted EBITDA (Normalized) would be calculated based on Adjusted EBITDA plus the actual income (loss) on a trailing twelve month basis in proportion to the Company’s economic interests in the joint venture as of the reporting date minus recurring joint venture distributions (the Company’s practice for EBITDA recognition for joint ventures). The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA (Normalized) because the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA (Normalized) provides a more appropriate denominator for its calculation of the Net Debt-to- EBITDA ratio as it reflects the leverage profile of the Company as of the reporting date. Adjusted EBITDA (Normalized) should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP), as an indication of the Company’s financial performance, as an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP), or as a measure of the Company’s liquidity. NET OPERATING INCOME (NOI) represents total revenues less total operating expenses, as reconciled to net income above. The Company considers NOI to be a meaningful non-GAAP financial measure for making decisions and assessing unlevered performance of its property types and markets as it relates to total return on assets, as opposed to levered return on equity. As properties are considered for sale and acquisition based on NOI estimates and projections, the Company utilizes this measure to make investment decisions, as well as compare the performance of its assets to those of its peers. NOI should not be considered a substitute for net income, and the Company’s use of NOI may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company calculates NOI before any allocations to non-controlling interests, as those interests do not affect the overall performance of the individual assets being measured and assessed. ORA™ score is an aggregate compilation of a property’s ratings across various review sites. Each month, J Turner Research monitors the online ratings of properties nationwide. Using a statistical model, a single score based on a scale of 0 to 100 is assigned to each property. SAME STORE includes properties that were owned for the entirety of the years being compared and exclude properties under redevelopment or development and properties acquired, sold or classified as held for sale during the years being compared.
