American Homes 4 Rent (AMH or the General Partner) is an internally managed Maryland real estate investment trust (REIT). American Homes 4 Rent, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the Operating Partnership or the OP) is the entity through which the Company conducts substantially all of its business and owns, directly or through subsidiaries, substantially all of its assets.
References to the Company, we, our and us mean collectively AMH, the Operating Partnership and those entities/subsidiaries owned or controlled by AMH and/or the Operating Partnership. We are focused on developing, renovating, leasing and managing single-family homes as rental properties. We commenced operations in November 2012.
Our geographically diversified portfolio of single-family homes has evolved into a nationally recognized brand that is well-known for quality, value and resident satisfaction and is well respected in our communities. Our goal is to simplify the experience of leasing a home and provide an accessible housing option to the one in three households who choose to rent in the country.
Since launching our internal AMH Development Program in 2017, we have contributed to addressing the national housing shortage by developing thousands of built-for-rental homes per year to meet growing demands.
At a time when housing affordability remains constrained across the country, AMH is focused on being part of the solution by expanding the housing supply, elevating the resident experience and creating value for all our stakeholders.
AMH is the general partner of, and as of December 31, 2025, owned approximately 87.9% of the common partnership interest in, the Operating Partnership. The remaining 12.1% of the common partnership interest was owned by limited partners. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, AMH has exclusive control of the Operating Partnership's day-to-day management.
The Company's management operates AMH and the Operating Partnership as one business, and the management of AMH consists of the same members as the management of the Operating Partnership. AMH's primary function is acting as the general partner of the Operating Partnership. The only material asset of AMH is its partnership interest in the Operating Partnership.
As a result, AMH generally does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of the Operating Partnership.
