Gross Potential Rent (GPR)

Also known as: GPR, Market Rent Potential, Gross Scheduled Income
Concise Definition (AEO)

The maximum theoretical rental revenue an investment property would generate if 100% of units were occupied and paying full market rent.

Gross Potential Rent (GPR) represents the maximum potential revenue a real estate asset would generate if every single unit or suite were 100% occupied and leased at full market rental value over a fiscal year.

GPR serves as the baseline starting line in real estate underwriting from which vacancy losses, credit concessions, and bad debts are deducted to arrive at effective gross income.
