INTRODUCTION
Property and real estate companies are currently companies that investors want to invest The very rapid development is what attracts the interest of investors.
The need for a place to live by the community has made property companies and investors compete to develop new ideas and innovations in the form of convenience and comfort.
As can be seen, currently the housing sector, apartments, shopping centers and office buildings are growing The results of an investment can be measured by stock returns, it is very important for investors to obtain maximum returns.
In this case investors must be able to assess and carry out financial analysis properly and accurately.
The information used in this case is the company's financial performance so that investors can make the right decision.
The most effective way of analyzing finances is to calculate financial ratios, namely Earning per share and Net profit Margin.
Earning per share (EPS) can indicate the level of company welfare, if the Earning per share (EPS) distributed to investors is high then it indicates that the company is able to provide a good level of welfare to shareholders , while the Earning per share (EPS) distributed is low then indicates that the company failed to provide benefits as expected by Accounting and business Journal The higher the EPS value, the happier the shareholders will be because the greater the profit provided to the shareholders.
With increasing profits, stock prices tend to rise whereas when profits decrease, stock prices also fall, this will also be followed by changes in high net stock returns as well.
A high net profit margin indicates the company's ability to generate high profits at a certain level of sales, a low net profit margin indicates sales that are too low for a certain level of costs.
In general, a low ratio can indicate management inefficiency.
This means that the greater the ratio , the better, because it is considered that the company gets a high net This gives confidence to investors to own the company's shares which in turn can increase stock returns in the future .
That way the company's management will maximize the company's performance to achieve profits.

45 %.
The higher the EPS value, the happier the shareholders will be because the greater the profit provided to the shareholders.
With increasing profits, stock prices tend to rise whereas when profits decrease, stock prices also fall, this will also be followed by changes in stock returns.
LITERATURE REVIEW
Agency theory ( agency theory ), namely the relationship between 2 parties that The first is the owner ( principal ) and the second is management .
agency theory states that if there is a separation between the owner as the principal and managers as agents who run the company will then appear agency problems because each of these parties will always try to maximize its utility function .
However, with the development of an increasingly large company, it results in frequent conflicts between owners and management, in this case the shareholders .
and agents represented by management .
In a company, the relationship between principal and agent is manifested in the relationship between shareholders and managers.
Shareholders act as principals while managers act as agents.
This relationship creates a contract between shareholders and managers.
Stock return is a reward from investment activities , both what has happened ( realized return ) and what will happen ( expected return ).
The more we invest, the more rewards we will get.

RESEARCH METHOD
This research uses a quantitative approach, where this research uses numbers starting from collecting data, interpreting the data obtained and presenting the results.
The object of this research is a property and real estate company.
There are 50 companies engaged in the property and real estate sector on the Indonesian stock exchange, the sample in this study was carried out by purposive sampling, namely sampling with certain criteria so that a sample of 31 companies was obtained, the sample taken was in the form of company financial reports from 2015-2019 or the observation sample is 155 samples .
The variables of this study are 3 variables, namely stock returns as the dependent variable and earnings per share and net profit margin as independent variables.
The data collection technique used is the documentation technique.
Documentation, namely using accurate evidence from recording specific sources of information from writings and books.
The type of data is Accounting and business Journal secondary data.
Secondary data is data obtained through other parties, not directly obtained from researchers from research subjects.
The data analysis technique was performed using multiple linear regression.
The requirement for carrying out multiple linear regression is to first perform a classical assumption test, then perform a hypothesis test.

Multicollinearity Test The results of the calculation of the tolerance value show that the independent variables have a tolerance value of > 0.
10 , which means there is no correlation between the independent The results of calculating the value of the variance inflation factor (VIF) also show Accounting and business Journal the same thing where the independent variable has a VIF value <10, so it can be concluded that the regression model in this study did not have multicollinearity.
Autocorrelation Test In the autocorrelation test it can be seen that the DW value is 1.
This indicates that there is no autocorrelation between the independent variables, so the regression model is feasible to use.
Heteroscedasticity Test Based on the Glejer test that has been done, it can be seen that the significance value of Earnings Per Share is 0.
527, and the Net Profit Margin value is 0.
When viewed from the significance value, heteroscedasticity was not detected because the significance value was above 05 or 5%, so it can be concluded that the regression model in this study did not occur Multiple Linear Regression Test Y = a b 1 EPS b 2 NPM e Table: Multiple Linear Regression Test Results Unstandardized Coefficients Model 1 (Constan.

Discussion From the results of the study it can be seen that Earning per Share has no significant effect on stock returns.
This is in contrast to high Earnings Per Share which means that the company is in good condition and the company can manage and empower its assets properly.
The greater EPS will show the company's ability to generate increasing net profit after tax, with increasing net profit after tax generated by the company, the total return received by shareholders will also PS is used as a reference for management to determine the amount of dividends to be EPS shows the company's ability to earn profits and the ability to distribute the company's profits to shareholders.
