Invitation’s shares have increased about 36% this year through Wednesday, as single-family landlords have outperformed apartment owners and private equity has flooded into the asset.

Invitation reported average occupancy of more than 98% for the quarter, giving the company power to set rents higher. Rents rose by nearly 24% on new leases in Phoenix, and more than 22% in Las Vegas, the highest increases out of the 16 markets in which the company operates.
