Despite a turbulent year, AIV reported a solid increase in NOI, driven by higher monthly revenue per home and expanded NOI margins. The company's portfolio of Stabilized Operating Properties produced $106 million of NOI in 2023, marking a 9.3% increase over 2022. However, the company faced challenges, including a net loss attributable to common stockholders per share of $(1.07) in Q4 and $(1.16) for the full year, primarily due to a non-cash impairment charge related to the Parkmerced mezzanine investment.

AIV's financial achievements in 2023 included the investment of $234 million into active development projects, delivering over 350 new units, and the repurchase of 6.2 million shares. The balance sheet remained solid, with limited near-term maturities and a proactive approach to debt retirement.

Looking ahead to 2024, AIV anticipates revenue growth driven by leases transacted in 2023, with projected full-year NOI growth of between -0.75% to 2.75%. The company plans to substantially reduce capital allocated to development and redevelopment activities, focusing instead on maximizing and unlocking shareholder value through strategic dispositions or recapitalizations.
