Apartment Income REIT LLC ("AIR" or "AIR Communities") today announced an update on the company's GRESB performance and corporate responsibility program. AIR received a 2025 GRESB score of 85 out of 100 and 4 stars out of 5, marking the company's fifth year of participation in the global benchmark. The achievement places AIR in the top 25% of all participating residential entities in the Americas, ranking 33rd out of 145.
Each year, GRESB (formerly Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark) assesses and benchmarks the performance of real estate portfolios worldwide, delivering trusted insights to financial markets on material performance factors that influence long-term value. This year, over 2,300 real estate portfolios were assessed by GRESB.
"AIR's strong GRESB performance demonstrates our commitment to corporate responsibility," said Lisa Cohn, AIR's Co-President and General Counsel. "As we mark five years of GRESB participation and our first assessment as a privately held company, these results reflect the dedication of our entire team to creating long-term value and making a positive impact in the communities we serve."

Additionally, AIR performed better than peers on average in environmental performance areas including energy consumption, GHG emissions, water consumption, waste management, and building certifications.
"This year's GRESB Benchmarks reflect the resilience and success of our members, who continue to demonstrate that data-driven performance drives value creation, resilience, and risk management," says Sebastien Roussotte, CEO, GRESB.
