  • Revenue decreased by $2.8 million or 4.0% to $65.8 million, compared to $68.5 million for the same period of the prior year, primarily due to the sale of 12 apartment communities in the prior year;
  • Same-store revenues and expenses remained relatively unchanged with a 0.3% increase in same-store NOI compared to the same period of the prior year;
  • Net loss was $0.07 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $0.87 per diluted share for the same period of the prior year primarily due to impairment recognized in the prior year;
  • Core FFO per diluted share decreased 0.8% to $1.27, compared to $1.28 for the same period of the prior year, primarily due to the sale of 12 apartment communities in the prior year, offset by increased NOI from non-same-store communities and decreased casualty loss; and
