Loss to Lease
The financial variance between a property's actual contractual in-place rental income and potential revenue if all units were leased at market rates.
Loss to Lease is a financial analysis metric calculating the variance between a property's current in-place contract rental revenue and the gross rent that could be achieved if every occupied unit were leased at current prevailing market rates.
Asset managers track loss to lease to measure revenue upside potential achievable as existing leases expire and roll over to market rates.
