Equity Residential (EQR) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Equity Residential (EQR) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Equity Residential is expected to achieve a 3.0% year-over-year same-store revenue growth in 2025, with a projected same-store net operating income (SSNOI) growth of 2.6%, aligning with management's guidance. The company has also raised its Funds from Operations (FFO) estimate for 2025 to $4.04 per share, indicating improved financial performance partly driven by anticipated non-operating asset gains. Additionally, the company's strategic asset repurchase and capital recycling efforts position it favorably in the current market environment, suggesting a strong potential for enhancing shareholder value.
Bears say
Equity Residential has experienced a stock pullback of 9% this year, significantly underperforming the broader apartment sector, which highlights potential vulnerabilities in its financial performance. The company faces risks related to declining rental demand in its key urban markets, particularly San Francisco and Los Angeles, where competition may exacerbate challenges due to lower exposure. Additionally, with the company’s portfolio heavily weighted toward urban assets, early signs of demand decline and a broader shift to suburban living may further hinder its revenue growth and operational stability.
