Valuing Independence Realty Trust stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Independence Realty Trust's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Independence Realty Trust's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 50x. In other words, Independence Realty Trust shares trade at around 50x recent earnings.
That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.
Independence Realty Trust's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 4.57. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Independence Realty Trust's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Independence Realty Trust's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is USD$104.2 million.

TTM: trailing 12 months
There are currently 10.4 million Independence Realty Trust shares held short by investors – that's known as Independence Realty Trust's "short interest". This figure is 10.1% up from 9.4 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Independence Realty Trust shares can be evaluated.
Independence Realty Trust's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Independence Realty Trust shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Independence Realty Trust shares traded daily (recently around 603189.98252766). Independence Realty Trust's SIR currently stands at 17.17. In other words for every 100,000 Independence Realty Trust shares traded daily on the market, roughly 17170 shares are currently held short.
However Independence Realty Trust's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Independence Realty Trust shares, or, against the total number of tradable Independence Realty Trust shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Independence Realty Trust's short interest could be expressed as 0.11% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Independence Realty Trust shares in existence, roughly 110 shares are currently held short) or 0.1541% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Independence Realty Trust shares, roughly 154 shares are currently held short).
A SIR above 10% would generally be considered pretty high, pointing to a potentially pessimistic outlook for the share price and a discouraging interest in betting against Independence Realty Trust.

In Independence Realty Trust's case, that would currently equate to about $0.48 per share.
Independence Realty Trust's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
