Invitation Homes reported revenue of $731 million for Q3 2026, up 6% from a year earlier (Invitation Homes, Oct 28, 2026).

The quarter ended September 30, 2026 and Invitation Homes published the results on October 28, 2026. Revenue and diluted EPS are shown against Q3 2025, the same quarter a year earlier, which takes seasonal swings out of the comparison. Invitation Homes reports EPS two ways: GAAP, under the accounting rules every US filer follows, and Core FFO per share, which leaves out items the company considers outside its operating results. The release reconciles the two, and when they diverge, the reconciliation says why.

  • Invitation Homes is a REIT. Revenue on this page is the line it calls total revenues, and the adjusted EPS line is Core FFO per diluted share, the REIT measure it reports alongside GAAP net income per share.
  • Homebuilding revenues come from ResiBuilt, a fee homebuilder Invitation Homes acquired on January 14, 2026, so there is no year-ago figure.
  • On September 15, 2026 Invitation Homes dissolved its Pathway joint ventures and consolidated 894 homes, recognizing a non-cash net loss of $30.4 million that it excludes from Core FFO.

Segment lines are the figures writers cite most often, because they show where the growth in a quarter came from. Companies redraw their segments from time to time and restate the prior year to match, so a year-ago figure here can differ from the one printed a year ago. When that has happened, the note above says so.

  • Q3 2026 (this page), reported Oct 28, 2026

What Invitation Homes's revenue is made of

Invitation Homes is a single-family home leasing REIT, and rent is most of its revenue. In Q3 2026 rental revenues were $597.3 million of total revenues of $731.3 million, other property income $78.2 million, management fee revenues $19.9 million and homebuilding revenues $35.8 million. Total revenues rose 6.3% from $688.2 million a year earlier. (Invitation Homes Q3 2026 earnings release and supplemental, Oct 28, 2026)

Invitation Homes added homebuilding revenue in 2026 by acquiring ResiBuilt, a fee homebuilder that builds single-family rental communities in Southeast markets, on January 14, 2026. Its $35.8 million of homebuilding revenues has no year-ago comparison, while rental revenues rose from $593.6 million. (Invitation Homes Form 10-Q, Q3 2026, Oct 29, 2026; Invitation Homes Q3 2026 earnings release and supplemental, Oct 28, 2026)

In the Same Store portfolio of 76,687 homes, Invitation Homes' Core Revenues grew 1.6%, driven by a 1.8% increase in Average Monthly Rent and a 2.6% increase in other property income, partly offset by a 10 basis point decline in Average Occupancy to 96.4% and a 10 basis point rise in bad debt. Renewal rents rose 4.3% while new lease rents fell 0.2%, for blended rent growth of 3.0%. (Invitation Homes Q3 2026 earnings release and supplemental, Oct 28, 2026)

Invitation Homes sold 658 wholly owned homes in Q3 2026, most to families buying them to live in, for gross proceeds of about $318 million, and acquired 216 for about $74 million. It wholly owned 85,961 homes at September 30, 2026, and its 10-K says its homes are primarily located in 16 core markets, mainly in the Western United States, Florida and the Southeast. (Invitation Homes Q3 2026 earnings release and supplemental, Oct 28, 2026; Invitation Homes Form 10-K, 2025, Feb 19, 2026)

What Invitation Homes's EPS includes

Invitation Homes' GAAP net income per diluted share was $0.27 in Q3 2026, up from $0.22, helped by a $136.2 million gain on the sale of property against $45.5 million a year earlier. Core FFO per share, the measure REIT analysts follow, was $0.48 against $0.47, and AFFO per share was $0.38 in both periods. (Invitation Homes Q3 2026 earnings release and supplemental, Oct 28, 2026)

FFO strips out depreciation and real estate sale gains, and Core FFO further excludes items such as business reorganization costs, share-based compensation and debt extinguishment losses. Business reorganization of $32.0 million in Q3 2026 included the $30.4 million loss from dissolving the Pathway joint ventures, FFO per share fell to $0.36 from $0.44 while Core FFO per share rose. (Invitation Homes Q3 2026 earnings release and supplemental, Oct 28, 2026)

Buybacks reduced Invitation Homes' weighted average diluted shares to 588,534,202 from 613,084,571 a year earlier. It repurchased 8,874,903 shares for approximately $250 million in Q3 2026, and its board authorized another $500 million program on October 26, 2026. Invitation Homes said Core FFO per share growth came primarily from the lower share count and Same Store NOI growth. (Invitation Homes Q3 2026 earnings release and supplemental, Oct 28, 2026)

Diluted EPS divides net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding in the quarter, plus the shares that options and other equity awards could add. Buybacks shrink that count and lift EPS for the same profit; share issuance and stock awards enlarge it.

A consensus figure is the average of the models published by the analysts who cover Invitation Homes, collected by a data provider and revised up to the day of the report. A quarter that lands above it says how expectations were set as much as how the business did, and the share price on the day also reflects the guidance and the lines no consensus covers.

The consensus figures on this page are Yahoo Finance's, as pulled on the date shown. Each comes with the number of analysts behind it; the smaller that number, the more one revised estimate can move the average.

How to check INVH's figures yourself

Every number on this page can be traced to a document Invitation Homes published. Checking one takes a couple of minutes, and it is worth doing before you quote a figure anywhere.

  • The results release is the document linked in the source line above. Companies publish it on their investor relations site at the moment results go out, and it carries the headline tables: revenue, operating income, net income and EPS for the quarter and the year-ago quarter.
  • The same release is filed with the SEC as Exhibit 99.1 to a Form 8-K under Item 2.02, usually on the day of the report. The SEC copy does not change after the fact, which makes it the safer thing to link when you cite a number.
  • The quarterly report (Form 10-Q) follows within a few weeks and carries the full financial statements, the segment note and management's discussion of what changed. The fourth quarter is covered by the annual report (Form 10-K) instead.
  • Restated comparisons are flagged in the notes on this page. When a company redraws its segments or changes how it adjusts EPS, it restates the year-ago column, so the year-ago figure in a new release can differ from the one printed a year ago. This page always uses the comparison in the newer release, because that is the like-for-like one.
