π¦ Current Readiness of Vacant Units
- Total vacant units: 18
- Ready / available: 7 units
- Not ready: 11 units
-
Trend: The total number of ready vacant units stayed flat at 7,
while not-ready units increased from 9 to 11.
-
Key insight: The week-over-week vacancy increase is driven by
additional units requiring turns, repairs, or cleaning rather than lack of demand.

π Main Factors Contributing to Higher Vacancy
-
π οΈ Repair-heavy turns:
Brookstone and Willow have multiple units delayed by drywall, flooring, bathroom repair,
smoke remediation, pest treatment, and carpet replacement.
-
β³ Not-ready units are increasing:
Portfolio-wide not-ready units rose from 9 to 11, while ready units remained unchanged.
-
π¦ Vendor or material delays:
Appliance orders and plumbing-related work are slowing unit availability at certain properties.
-
π Application conversion gaps:
Some units have pending or denied applications, especially at Brookstone, delaying lease-up.
-
π Lower demand concentration at Brookstone:
Brookstone has the most vacant units but the smallest waiting list among the larger properties.
π Recommended Actions to Improve Occupancy
-
π§ Prioritize non-ready units at Brookstone and Willow:
These two properties account for the entire portfolio vacancy increase and most of the not-ready inventory.
-
π§° Create a turn-completion schedule:
Assign target completion dates for units needing drywall, flooring, plumbing, smoke remediation,
appliance repair, and cleaning.
-
π Accelerate applicant follow-up:
Move approved applicants to lease signing quickly and resolve pending applications within a defined timeframe.
-
π― Target marketing at Brookstone:
Since Brookstone has seven vacant units and only five people on the waiting list,
focused outreach may be needed to rebuild demand.
-
π Pre-lease units before turns are fully complete:
For units with predictable completion dates, begin applicant matching earlier to reduce downtime.
-
π Monitor not-ready units weekly:
The key occupancy risk is not the number of vacant units alone, but how many remain unavailable for move-in.
β Key Takeaway
The portfolio remains relatively healthy at 95.0% occupancy, but vacancy is trending upward.
The primary issue is unit readiness, not overall demand. Reducing repair and turn delays at
Brookstone Village, Willow Creek Senior Villas, and
Cedar Ridge Commons should have the fastest impact on improving occupancy.
