What Economic Occupancy means

Occupancy measured by collected income rather than just physical occupancy.

Economic occupancy compares the income actually collected or earned to the income that could be earned at full performance. It can reveal concessions, delinquency, bad debt, or below-market rent even when units appear occupied.

How this connects

From the book to the operating plan

Economic Occupancy connects to Chapter 6: Owner Mindset, section Maximizing Revenue and Minimizing Vacancies in Property Management Excellence. The operating takeaway for owners is: Leasing is a pipeline, not a scramble.
