Like a loss to lease is this unit should be rented. However, it is not rented for this period of time. So our rental loss on the unit, if this unit was leased for $1,000 a month, which it should be, but it was vacant for 2 months, our loss to lease, our average loss to lease was $2,000. That is the, the time that the unit sat vacant and we lost income is effectively what that means.
