3 High customer service, lower turnover philosophy Greater NOI contribution: Renewal lease rate increases are generally higher than new lease rate increases; renewals avoid costs associated with higher vacancy, refurbishment and marketing. More predictable operating results: Renewal lease rate increases are less volatile; operating costs more predictable. Focus on efficient operations: Over the past five years, the compound annual growth rate for Aimco’s property operating expenses before taxes, insurance, and utilities is below zero. Aimco expects property operating expenses before taxes, insurance, and utilities to be flat to up 1% in 2014.

4 Strong operating performance During the most recent cycle, from 2006 through 2012, the compound annual growth rate for Aimco’s property NOI of 3.7% is in line with peers*. At the market level, Aimco’s operating results are above-average. In 2013, 60% of Aimco’s NOI was earned in markets where Aimco competes with at least three other public apartment REITs. Aimco was the leader in revenue growth in more than half of these nine common markets.

5 Maintaining diversification while moving to higher average price point Los Angeles expected to outperform in 2014, helping to offset slower Mid Atlantic. Allocation to Coastal California increasing to ~33% in coming years as redevelopments come online. Avoid concentration risk by maintaining allocation to Midwest, Sunbelt and Miami. PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT Aimco defines asset quality as follows: "A" quality assets are those with rents greater than 125% of local market average; "B" quality assets are those with rents 90% to 125% of local market average; “C+” quality assets are those with rents less than 90% of local market average, but with rents greater than $1,100 per month; and "C" quality assets are those with rents less than 90% of local market average and with rents less than $1,100 per month. The chart above illustrates Aimco’s Conventional Property portfolio quality based on 3Q 2013 data, the most recent period for which third-party data is available. Future portfolio: ~40% A; ~40% B; ~20% high-rent C. Capital recycling combined with market rent growth increase average revenue per unit ~$100/year for the next several years, approaching $1,600 at the end of 2014.

6 Methodical approach to investment selection Portfolio strategy executed through leverage-neutral, tax-efficient paired trades when: the projected Free Cash Flow IRR of an investment is greater than the projected Free Cash Flow IRR of the property sold; and portfolio quality is enhanced. Selective investments are made in markets where our current allocations are below our target (for example, Manhattan) and/or where we seek to upgrade our locations within a market (for example, Boston). 2012 – 2013 Paired Trade Activity PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT Sell Lowest Rated Properties Conventional properties 40 Affordable properties 60 Gross proceeds (Aimco share) $1B Net proceeds (Aimco share) $0.5B Avg revenue per apartment home $863 Avg FCF IRR 6% - 7% Reinvest in Higher-Rent Properties Property Upgrades Acquisitions Investment $86M Partnership transactions 14 Avg FCF IRR > 15% Gross real estate value $216M Avg FCF IRR > 10% Redevelopment/Development Total multi-year investment ~$820M Properties acquired 6 Avg revenue per apartment home $2,200 Gross real estate value $181M Avg FCF IRR ~ 10% Avg revenue per apartment home $1,490 Avg FCF IRR > 8%
7 Average revenues per apartment home increasing at a greater rate than peers Over the last ten years, the compound annual growth rate for Aimco’s Same Store average revenue per apartment home is 20% higher than the peer average and nearly three times that of market rent growth. Aimco is the only apartment REIT whose Same Store revenue per apartment home increased in 2009 compared to 2008. On average, peer revenue per apartment home decreased 4.1% during that time. Aimco's Same Store revenue per apartment home has never decreased when compared to the prior year. Owning fewer apartment homes with higher rents and higher projected revenue growth increase Free Cash Flow and AFFO at a faster rate than NOI and FFO. AFFO growth drives dividend growth.

9 Quantity of leverage is in line with peers, and declining We achieved our target for lower leverage two years ahead of plan. Aimco’s leverage of 7.2x reflects outstanding balances at 12/31/2013, but overstates the refunding risk of our leverage, as our property debt is amortizing and certain of our leverage is perpetual. Our property debt balances at maturity are almost $1 billion lower than current balances as scheduled amortization is paid from retained earnings. BALANCE SHEET (1) Data Source: SNL Financial. Reflects 12/31/2013 debt balance and preferred balance, less cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, divided by 4Q 2013 annualized recurring EBITDA. For Aimco, net debt represents Aimco’s share of property debt and any balance on the revolving credit facility, reduced by Aimco’s share of cash and investments in a securitization trust that holds only Aimco property loans. (2) Represents 12/31/2013 debt balance, reduced by scheduled amortization funded from retained earnings, divided by 4Q 2013 annualized recurring EBITDA. Also excludes perpetual preferred equity. (2)

Avoid recourse debt, use preferred stocks as our senior corporate security. Limit Entity Risk Use fixed-rate property loans and refinance nearer-term maturities to lock in current low rates. Limit Re-Pricing Risk Limit Refunding Risk With superior quality and average quantity of leverage, Aimco’s balance sheet strength merits an investment grade rating. We are seeking such a rating not to issue recourse debt, but for recognition of the safety of our balance sheet.
