As we all know we budget for 365 empty room night per annum per house – a total of 730 nights. To this point in the financial year we have amassed a total of 17 empty nights. That’s right ……. 17.

There have been 4 exits in the same period of time; 1 death, 1 eviction, 1 reso moving to higher care and 1 reso making a ridiculously bad decision to leave Hamer to live in an old folks place. Christmas is an unsettling time for resos as a rule and we normally see one or two seek their fortunes elsewhere at this time. Still, the stats are great and are backed up by the fact that almost no rent is being missed at this time. It is a healthy position to be in and one we will continue to work hard at maintaining – especially as the task of filling Romana looms.
