Pacer rebuilt this portfolio's revenue strategy at a May 4 strategy review. Measured from that date forward against the identical window a year earlier, rent per available night rose 14.4% while the bedroom-matched market moved 2.5%. Same homes, same calendar, same comp set on both sides.
“Just wanted to give you a special thank you for how responsive you are and the amazing work you’re doing with our portfolio. It’s a constant topic of conversation around how happy we are working with you and Pacer.”
Dave Menapace · President, The 5-Star Co-HostThe comp set around these homes was close to unchanged, adding 2.5% over the same four months. That is the backdrop this result was produced against: not a rising tide, and not a collapse to outrun. The gain came from pricing decisions rather than from market conditions, which is why it shows up in the peak weeks rather than being spread thinly across the window.
Key Data Market and PM Benchmarking with the Same-Store Only filter applied, covering 24 homes in service across both periods. Window is May 4 to September 9, 2026 against the identical dates in 2025. Adj. RevPAR is rent per available night, net of owner stays and maintenance holds. Market is the direct comp set across 26 markets, 93 property managers and 4,952 units, present in both ranges. Growth rates are compared rather than absolute levels, because bedroom count does not capture size, location or condition.
The window is measured from the strategy review forward rather than from the contract date, so the comparison covers the period the new approach was actually in force.
Peak summer is where a mispriced calendar costs the most and where most operators are least willing to move. That is where the largest share of the gain came from.
This book spans New England and Northern Georgia. Pricing is set per property and per date rather than by a portfolio-wide rule, because these markets do not move together.
Every figure comes from Key Data's Market and PM Benchmarking report with the Same-Store Only filter applied. Any Key Data user can reproduce it in their own account.
24 homes in service across the primary and compare windows alike. Homes that entered or left service inside the window are excluded from both sides.
The portfolio is compared to its market on rate of change rather than absolute dollars, because bedroom matching does not control for size, location or condition.
