For REITs like Equity Residential, EV/FCF is secondary context: real-estate companies are valued primarily on funds from operations (FFO / AFFO) and price-to-FFO, where heavy property capital spending makes free-cash-flow multiples less informative than for an operating company. The EV/FCF is shown for reference.

The EV/FCF ratio is 27.24x as of Friday, June 26, 2026.
