Energy Consumption shows how much energy the property portfolio uses during a given period. It typically includes electricity, district heating, district cooling, gas, and other energy carriers used for heating, cooling, ventilation, lighting, and building operations. Consumption can be tracked for the entire portfolio, per property, or per area unit (e.g., kWh/m²).

Registered Cases represent the number of new cases that have been entered into the system during the selected period. The metric includes all case types captured by the system – such as incident reports, or other service requests – depending on system configuration.

Vacancy Rate (units) measures the share of rental units in a property or portfolio that are unleased at a given point in time. The metric focuses on the number of units (e.g., apartments, commercial spaces, or parking spots) rather than their area or rental value.

Accepted Rental Offers tracks the number of times a rental offer has been accepted by a potential tenant during a selected time period. Acceptance typically means the tenant has agreed to proceed, often leading to a signed lease. This is a key KPI in the leasing process and reflects how attractive the offering is to the market.

The KPI shows the total amount of budgeted resources or money that has been allocated and planned to cover costs and investments during the specified period of the current year. This key figure provides an overview of how the budget is accumulated or spent over time and is useful for following financial planning and control during the year. Accumulated means summing up or accumulating budget for different time periods (often months) over a certain period of time; in this case the current year. In other words, it is a cumulative or aggregate statement showing how much money has been allocated so far. Cumulative budgeting is often used to track and evaluate how well an organization is following its financial plan over time, and it can be helpful in identifying trends and patterns in budget execution. It provides a more comprehensive picture of financial performance than a single monthly or quarterly budget.

Accumulated Forecast 1 is a KPI showing the expected financial outcome from the beginning of the year up to a selected month, according to the first forecast of the year. It combines actual data for completed months with forecasted values for the remaining months leading up to the selected point in time. This enables comparisons against budget or previous years’ results—even before the year is over. In Homepal, this KPI is connected to financial metrics such as revenue, costs, and net operating income, allowing for tracking at levels like property or portfolio.

Accumulated Forecast 2 shows the total sum of Forecast 2 from the beginning of the year up to a given month. It’s used to track the forecasted financial outcome over time, month by month, based on the second version of the financial projection. This KPI is particularly useful for monthly follow-up or comparisons against accumulated actuals or budget. In Homepal, you can view the progression of Accumulated Forecast 2 at the property, company, or area level.

Accumulated Forecast 3 adds up the monthly values from the third version of the annual financial forecast through the selected period. It is typically created later in the year, using more accurate and updated data, and is used as a management and reporting tool. In Homepal, this KPI provides a clear overview of the projected year-to-date performance, and can be compared with actuals, budget, or previous forecast versions. It’s often used in executive and board-level reporting.

The key figure shows the overall financial performance, result or outcome over a specified period of time. This key figure provides an overview of how the outcome is accumulated or consumed over time and is useful for following the cumulative effect of the business's financial activities over time. Cumulative means summing up or accumulating outcomes for different time periods (often months) over a certain period of time; in this case the current year. In other words, it is a cumulative or aggregated statement that shows the outcome so far. Cumulative outcome is often used to get a more comprehensive picture of the performance development or the outcome over time. It helps analyze the cumulative effect of events and transactions and enables the identification of trends and patterns that can be useful for decision-making and planning.

Active Listings shows how many units are currently advertised and available on the market for leasing. The metric covers all ongoing listings, whether for residential units, commercial spaces, or other rental objects. Once a listing is closed or a contract is signed, the unit is no longer counted as active.

This metric shows the real expenditure for maintenance actions completed as part of planned maintenance (PM) within a given period. It includes all actual costs such as materials, contractor fees, internal labor, and any additional expenses incurred during execution. The metric reflects the true financial outcome of the work carried out.

Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance indicator that measures the operating profit of a property or business before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, adjusted for one-time or unusual expenses/incomes. It provides a clearer view of the operational profitability by excluding costs not directly related to day-to-day operations.

The KPI shows the administrative costs for property management during the selected period. This includes costs for financial administration, IT systems, legal services, auditing, and other management-related overhead costs. Administrative costs are part of operating costs that cannot be directly linked to the physical operation of the property but are necessary for effective management.

Affected Units (Completed Projects) shows how many rental units were included in projects finalized during the selected period. The metric reflects the scope of completed projects and how much of the portfolio has transitioned back to normal operations after project completion.

Affected Units (Initiated Projects) shows how many rental units are linked to projects initiated during the selected period. The metric provides an early view of which parts of the portfolio will be impacted by new projects, such as renovations, maintenance, or developments that have just begun.

Affected Units (Ongoing Projects) shows how many rental units are currently impacted by projects that are in progress — that is, projects between their start and end dates. The metric includes all units linked to active projects such as renovations, energy efficiency improvements, or redevelopments, and provides insight into the portion of the portfolio temporarily under work or influence. It helps visualize the operational scope of ongoing projects and their effect on the property portfolio.

This metric represents the estimated annual change in operating net expected to result from projects that have been completed. It reflects forecasted improvements in income and cost levels following project completion — such as rent increases, energy savings, or reduced operating expenses. The metric provides insight into how recently completed projects are projected to impact future profitability.

This metric shows the forecasted change in annual operating net from projects initiated during the selected period. It represents the expected impact on income and expenses once the projects are completed — for example through rent increases, energy savings, or reduced operating costs. The metric helps assess how newly started projects are projected to contribute to future profitability and value creation.

This metric shows the expected annual change in operating net generated by projects currently in progress — that is, projects with start and end dates spanning the selected point in time. It reflects the forecasted impact on income and expenses once the projects are completed, providing an early estimate of how ongoing investments will influence future operating results.

Applicants in Queue measures how many individuals are registered in the housing queue at a given point in time. The metric includes all active applicants, whether they have expressed interest in a specific unit or only maintain general preferences. It therefore reflects overall demand pressure on the portfolio.

Applications measures the number of tenant applications or expressions of interest received for advertised units. The metric includes all applications, regardless of whether they later result in offers, rejections, or signed contracts. It therefore serves as a direct indicator of market demand.

Applications per Listing shows the average number of tenant applications or expressions of interest received for each active listing. The metric combines supply (number of listings) with demand (number of applications), providing a clear indicator of market response to advertised units.

Area by Final Renegotiation Date shows the combined leasable area of lease agreements approaching their final renegotiation date. This metric provides an overview of the space potentially affected by renegotiation or termination.

Average Interest Rate shows the average interest level for all active loans within the property portfolio or company. The metric is calculated as a weighted average based on the outstanding balance of each loan, meaning that larger loans have a greater influence on the result. It is used to monitor financing costs, analyze loan structure, and evaluate the impact of rate changes or refinancing.
