If your rental portfolio is fully occupied, it’s tempting to believe you’re already at peak performance.
But here’s the truth: 100% occupancy doesn’t always mean 100% profitable.
Across Carmel and Indianapolis, many landlords quietly lose revenue through underpriced units, market misalignment, or high tenant turnover — and they often don’t realize it until it’s too late.
The Silent Losses Behind “Full” Portfolios
When every unit is filled, it’s easy to overlook subtle performance gaps.
These are some of the most common silent revenue drains we see in the Carmel and Indianapolis rental market:
- Underpriced Rents – Even a $50 underpricing per unit adds up to thousands in lost annual revenue.
- Misaligned Market Positioning – Amenities, finishes, or marketing that miss the mark with target tenants.
- Frequent Turnover – Higher leasing costs, vacancy gaps, and wear-and-tear from constant tenant changes.
A Q1 2025 market report from MMG Real Estate Advisors shows that year-over-year rent growth in Indianapolis reached 2.0%, with mid-tier properties outperforming at 3.7% and occupancy holding strong at 92.6%. If your rents haven’t kept pace with these shifts, you may already be underperforming — even at “full” occupancy.

At Geotane, we measure what matters most to your bottom line: profitability, not just occupancy.

- Market Alignment Check – Compare each unit’s pricing and features to current demand.

This approach means you’re not just keeping units full — you’re making every lease count.
Local Insight: Carmel & Indianapolis Advantage
Carmel’s strong job market and Indianapolis’s urban growth create a steady demand for rentals, but they also make pricing and positioning critical.
Well-located, well-priced units move faster and retain tenants longer. Poorly positioned ones — even in a hot market — quietly underperform.
For example, a two-bedroom in Carmel’s Arts & Design District can command 15–20% higher rent than the city average if marketed with premium amenities and flexible leasing terms.
Without that alignment, you’re leaving money on the table.
