WORD OF THE DAY

Vacancy Rate

The calculation used by real estate investors to determine the value of a rental property.  High vacancy rates indicate a property is undervalued or undesireable.  Low vacancy rates equate to more prosperous real estate properties with owners enjoying lower tenant-turnover rates and increased leverage in raising rental prices.
