Operating Results

In the second quarter, total revenue increased by $10.1 million YOY, or 2.4 percent, to $425.4 million. This increase was primarily attributable to growth in revenue from Same-Store communities and completed developments, partially offset by declines in revenue from property dispositions.

“Same-Store revenue, expense, and NOI growth in the second quarter was stronger than expected,” said Mike Lacy, UDR’s Chief Operating Officer. “Blended lease rate growth, occupancy, income from rentable items, bad debt, and expenses all outperformed our initial outlook for the first half of the year, which supports our improved growth guidance for 2025. We continue to drive tangible benefits from our Customer Experience strategy, which has resulted in year-to-date annualized resident turnover being 350 basis points better than a year ago. With Same-Store occupancy remaining near 97 percent, we continue to operate from a position of strength to maximize revenue and NOI.”

Transactional Activity

During the quarter, the Company acquired the developer’s equity interest and consolidated Broadridge, previously known as 1300 Fairmount, a 478-home apartment community in Philadelphia, PA. The Company’s investment in this apartment community was previously reflected as a loan investment in its Debt and Preferred Equity portfolio. The loan investment was on non-accrual status for the fourth quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025. However, upon acquisition, the developer paid UDR $6.7 million, which consisted primarily of unpaid interest on its loan investment and reimbursement for certain costs previously advanced by the Company. As a result of the transaction, during the second quarter of 2025 the Company recorded $3.9 million in previously unaccrued interest, a $0.3 million gain on consolidation, and began recognizing NOI from the apartment community.

Debt and Preferred Equity Program Activity

As previously announced, during the quarter the Company fully funded a $13.0 million preferred equity investment at a contractual return rate of 12.0 percent in a stabilized 256-apartment home community located in the San Francisco, CA MSA as part of a recapitalization.

Additionally, during the quarter the Company received $54.8 million in proceeds from the full redemption of a preferred equity investment in a stabilized apartment community located in the New York, NY MSA.

Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company fully funded a $23.8 million preferred equity investment at a contractual return rate of 11.25 percent in a stabilized 350-apartment home community located in the Orlando, FL MSA as part of a recapitalization.

Capital Markets and Balance Sheet Activity

The Company’s total indebtedness as of June 30, 2025, was $5.8 billion with only $531.8 million, or 9.6 percent of total consolidated debt, maturing through 2026, including principal amortization and excluding amounts on the Company’s commercial paper program and working capital credit facility. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had approximately $1.1 billion in liquidity through a combination of cash and undrawn capacity on its credit facilities. Please see Attachment 13 of the Company’s related quarterly Supplement for additional details regarding investment guidance.
