An update from Independence Realty ( (IRT) ) is now available.
On February 11, 2026, Independence Realty Trust’s operating partnership entered into a Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement that upsized its unsecured credit capacity to $1.5 billion, with the option to increase to $2.0 billion, and added a new $350 million term loan maturing in 2030 to refinance 2026 maturities while keeping borrowing margins tied to its current credit rating. The facility, which replaces a prior 2025 agreement, extends the company’s debt maturity profile to the end of 2027, preserves existing pricing, and imposes customary leverage and coverage covenants, reinforcing IRT’s balance sheet flexibility and liquidity as it pursues growth.
