           Equity Residential Reports First Quarter Results


    CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 1, 2007--Equity Residential (NYSE:
EQR) today reported results for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. All
per share results are reported on a fully diluted basis.

    "Our first quarter operating performance was in line with our
expectations with very good occupancy levels across our largest
markets and strong revenue growth despite working off of a very
challenging comparison to first quarter 2006," said David J.
Neithercut, Equity Residential's President and CEO. "We continue to
see good job growth and limited new supply in many of our markets,
reinforcing our belief that they will produce good results for the
remainder of the year. As we head into our primary leasing season,
however, we have recently begun to see certain markets experiencing
somewhat slower sequential rental rate growth than we had hoped.
Nevertheless, we still expect the portfolio to produce good full year
revenue growth."

    First Quarter 2007

    For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, the company reported
earnings of $0.40 per share compared to $1.25 per share in the first
quarter of 2006. The quarterly decrease is primarily attributable to
$0.82 per share in higher gains on property sales in the first quarter
of 2006.

    Funds from Operations (FFO) for the quarter ended March 31, 2007
were $0.55 per share compared to $0.56 per share in the same period of
2006. The quarterly decrease is primarily attributable to higher gains
on condominium sales in the first quarter of 2006.

    The company's FFO of $0.55 per share for the quarter exceeded the
guidance range of $0.48 to $0.52 per share provided by the company in
its fourth quarter 2006 earnings release on February 6, 2007. The
items describing the difference between actual FFO per share for the
quarter and the midpoint of the company's original guidance range are
listed on page 24 of this release. The difference was primarily due to
changes in timing on certain anticipated income and expense items. The
main items were:

    --  Certain expenses were postponed to future quarters in 2007
        resulting in approximately $1.6 million less general and
        administrative expenses than projected;

    --  The company recorded a reduction to general and administrative
        expense of $1.6 million due to the successful resolution of a
        certain lawsuit in Florida resulting in the reversal of the
        majority of a previously established litigation reserve;

    --  Due to a delay in the timing of certain dispositions to future
        quarters in 2007, the company incurred approximately $4.9
        million less than projected in prepayment penalties and
        write-offs of unamortized deferred financing costs in
        connection with debt extinguishments; and

    --  The company's condominium conversion business closed
        additional units in the first quarter that were originally
        anticipated to close in subsequent quarters, resulting in
        additional net income and FFO of approximately $2.0 million.

    "Same-Store" Results

    On a "same-store" first quarter to first quarter comparison, which
includes 133,703 units, revenues increased 5.2 percent, expenses
increased 5.2 percent and NOI increased 5.2 percent. The increase in
same-store revenues, which came in as expected, was driven primarily
by increases in average rental rates and a slight increase in
occupancy. The increase in same-store expenses was slightly higher
than expected. Certain maintenance related expenses were front loaded
and should trend lower throughout the remainder of the year. In
addition, the company incurred higher than anticipated weather related
expenses in Denver and Washington, D.C.

    Acquisitions/Dispositions

    During the first quarter of 2007, the company acquired thirteen
properties, consisting of 3,899 units, for an aggregate purchase price
of $674.2 million at an average capitalization (cap) rate of 5.3
percent and three land parcels for $42.5 million.

    Also during the quarter, the company sold 12 properties,
consisting of 3,711 units, for an aggregate sale price of $253.9
million at an average cap rate of 6.1 percent generating an unlevered
internal rate of return (IRR) of 10.0 percent. In addition, the
company sold 157 condominium units for $37.3 million.

    Share Repurchase

    During the first quarter of 2007, the company repurchased and
retired 4,140,254 of its common shares at an average purchase price of
$48.76 per share for an aggregate purchase of approximately $201.9
million. The company's Board of Trustees has authorized an increase of
approximately $200 million in the company's share repurchase program,
bringing the amount currently available under the plan to $500
million.

    "We were pleased to take advantage of the excellent opportunity
that the recent pullback in Equity Residential's common share price
created for us to buy our portfolio at a significant discount to the
value of our assets. Our Board has given us authorization to increase
the amount we have available and we will continue to create value for
our shareholders by buying our own portfolio whenever an appropriate
discount exists," said Mr. Neithercut.

    New Disclosure

    On pages 24 and 25 of this release, the company has provided new
disclosure including:

    --  a reconciliation of guidance midpoint First Quarter 2007 FFO
        to actual First Quarter 2007 FFO;

    --  a breakout of items included in FFO in the First Quarters of
        both 2006 and 2007 that by their nature are not comparable
        from period to period; and

    --  additional assumptions used to create 2007 earnings guidance.

(1)  The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts
     ("NAREIT") defines funds from operations ("FFO") (April 2002
     White Paper) as net income (computed in accordance with
     accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
     ("GAAP")), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable
     property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after
     adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
     Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures
     will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same
     basis. The April 2002 White Paper states that gain or loss on
     sales of property is excluded from FFO for previously depreciated
     operating properties only. Once the Company commences the
     conversion of units to condominiums, it simultaneously
     discontinues depreciation of such property.

(2)  The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a
     supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real
     estate company, because it is a recognized measure of performance
     by the real estate industry and by excluding gains or losses
     related to dispositions of depreciable property and excluding
     real estate depreciation (which can vary among owners of
     identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost
     accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help compare the
     operating performance of a company's real estate between periods
     or as compared to different companies.  FFO does not represent
     net income or net cash flows from operating activities in
     accordance with GAAP.  Therefore, FFO should not be exclusively
     considered as an alternative to net income or to net cash flows
     from operating activities as determined by GAAP or as a measure
     of liquidity.  The Company's calculation of FFO may differ from
     other real estate companies due to, among other items, variations
     in cost capitalization policies for capital expenditures and,
     accordingly, may not be comparable to such other real estate
     companies.

(1) The Company's primary financial measure for evaluating each of its
 apartment communities is net operating income ("NOI"). NOI represents
 rental income less property and maintenance expense, real estate tax
 and insurance expense, and property management expense. The Company
 believes that NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure
 of the operating performance of a real estate company because it is a
 direct measure of the actual operating results of the Company's
 apartment communities.

(2) Average rental rate is defined as total rental revenues divided by
 the weighted average occupied units for the period.

            Definitions and Footnotes for Pages 24 and 25

 (1)The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts
     ("NAREIT") defines funds from operations ("FFO") (April 2002
     White Paper) as net income (computed in accordance with
     accounting principles generally accepted in the United States),
     excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property,
     plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for
     unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for
     unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated
     to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. Expected FFO
     is calculated on a basis consistent with actual FFO.

 (2)The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a
     supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real
     estate company, because it is a recognized measure of performance
     by the real estate industry and by excluding gains or losses
     related to dispositions of depreciable property and excluding
     real estate depreciation (which can vary among owners of
     identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost
     accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help compare the
     operating performance of a company's real estate between periods
     or as compared to different companies. FFO does not represent net
     income or net cash flows from operating activities in accordance
     with GAAP. Therefore, FFO should not be exclusively considered as
     an alternative to net income or to net cash flows from operating
     activities as determined by GAAP or as a measure of liquidity.
     The Company's calculation of FFO may differ from other real
     estate companies due to, among other items, variations in cost
     capitalization policies for capital expenditures and,
     accordingly, may not be comparable to such other real estate
     companies.

 (3)Non-comparable items are those items included in FFO that by their
     nature are not comparable from period to period, such as net
     incremental gain on sales of condominium units, impairment
     charges, debt extinguishment costs and redemption premiums on
     Preferred Shares/Preference Interests.

 (4)Earnings per share ("EPS") represents net income per share
     calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally
     accepted in the United States. Expected EPS is calculated on a
     basis consistent with actual EPS. Due to the uncertain timing and
     extent of property dispositions and the resulting gains/losses on
     sales, actual EPS could differ materially from expected EPS.
