What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($6.95). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (46/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- As a real-estate business, asset- and dividend-based methods carry more weight here than a standard DCF.

Analysis
Independence Realty Trust Inc (IRT) currently trades at $16.13, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $5.51, implying the stock looks roughly 192.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 46/100 (below-average quality), in the Real Estate sector. Bull case: the Asset-Based group reads highest at a median of $9.83 per share, and 3 of the 13 models we run sit above the $16.13 price. Bear case: the Growth DCF group reads lowest at $2.90, and 10 of the 13 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, Independence Realty Trust Inc generated revenue of $672M at a net margin of 7.2%. Revenue grew 2.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 1.4%. Net debt stands at $2.2B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $5.51 (bear case) to $6.95 (bull case); at $16.13, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 8% below its 52-week high and 10% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Real Estate peers we cover trades at −46% fair-value upside, at −66%, IRT screens richer than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
All 13 models by family
Widest divergence: Asset-Based ($9.83) versus Growth DCF ($2.90). Highest evidence: Residual Income (74).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 49 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 49
Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
