If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it would be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates.
Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The Company operates as an umbrella partnership REIT in which Bluerock Residential Holdings, L.P. (its “Operating Partnership”), or the Operating Partnership’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, owns substantially all of the property interests acquired and investments made on the Company’s behalf. As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, limited partners other than the Company owned approximately 10.29%31.01% of the common units of the Operating Partnership (1.01%(17.28% is held by holders of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) and 9.28%13.73% is held by holders of the Operating Partnership’s long-term incentive plan units (“LTIP Units”)).
Bluerock Real Estate, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, is referred to as Bluerock (“Bluerock”), and the Company’s external manager, BRG Manager, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, is referred to as its Manager (“Manager”). Both Bluerock and the Manager are related parties with respect to the Company, butincluding 6.09% which are not within the Company’s control and are not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements.
vested at March 31, 2021).
Because the Company is the sole general partner of itsthe Operating Partnership and has unilateral control over its management and major operating decisions (even if additional limited partners are admitted to the Operating Partnership), the accounts of the Operating Partnership are consolidated in its consolidated financial statements.
The Company also consolidates entities in which it controls more than 50% of the voting equity and in which control does not rest with other investors. Investments
In cases where the Company holds a preferred equity investment in real estate joint ventures over whichwhere the preferred equity interest must be redeemed by the issuing entity or is redeemable at the Company’s option, the preferred equity investment is accounted for as a held to maturity debt security. These preferred equity investments have a mandatory redemption provision, and the Company has the intent and ability to exercise significant influence, but for which it does not have financial or operating control,hold the investment until redemption. The preferred equity investments are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. These entities are reflected onincluded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as “Preferred equity investments and investments in unconsolidated real estate joint ventures.” All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
The Company will consider future joint venturespreferred equity investments and mezzanine loan investments for consolidation in accordance with the provisions required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810: Consolidation.
Certain amounts in prior periods, related to tenant reimbursements for utility expenses amounting to $1.0 million and $2.7 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2016,year financial statement presentation have been reclassified to other property revenues from property operating expenses, to conform to the current period presentationpresentation.

Significant Risks and Uncertainties
At the present time, one of the most significant risks and uncertainties is the potential adverse effect of the current pandemic of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”). The Company’s tenants may experience financial difficulty due to the loss of their jobs and some have requested rent deferral or rent abatement during this pandemic. Experts have predicted that the outbreak will trigger, or has already triggered, a period of global economic slowdown or a global recession.
The COVID-19 pandemic could have material and adverse effects on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in the near term due to, but not limited to, the following:
● | reduced economic activity may impact the employment of the Company’s tenants and their ability to pay their obligations to the Company, thus requesting modifications of such obligations, resulting in increases in uncollectible receivables and reductions in rental income; |
● | the negative financial impact of the pandemic could impact the Company’s future compliance with financial covenants of its credit facilities and other debt agreements; |
● | weaker economic conditions could require that the Company recognize impairment in value of its real estate assets due to a reduction in property income; |
● | the Company’s inability to maintain occupancy or leasing rates, or increase these rates at stabilizing development properties, including due to possible reduced foot traffic and lease applications from prospective tenants at the Company’s properties as a result of the shelter-in-place orders and similar government guidelines; and |
● | concentration of the Company’s properties in markets that may be more severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic due to its significant negative impact on certain key economic drivers in those markets, such as travel and entertainment. |
The extent to which includes tenant reimbursements for utility expenses amountingthe COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company’s operations and those of its tenants will depend on future developments, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to $1.6 millioncontain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and $4.6 millionthe direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others.
The Company believes it currently has a stable financial condition: as of March 31, 2021, the Company collected 97% of rents from its multifamily properties for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2021. In addition, property management fees have been reclassified from property operating expenses.
Investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Joint Ventures
The Company first analyzes its investments in joint ventures to determine if the joint venture is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in accordance with ASC 810 and if so, whetherprior quarters, the Company is the primary beneficiary requiring consolidation. A VIE is an entity that has (i) insufficient equity to permit it to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or (ii) equity holders that lack the characteristicshad provided rent deferral payment plans as a result of a controlling financial interest. VIEs are consolidated by the primary beneficiary, which is the entity that has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that potentially could be significanthardships certain tenants experienced due to the entity. Variable interestsimpact of COVID-19; for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company did not provide any rent deferral payment plans, compared to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic (quarter ended June 30, 2020) in a VIE are contractual, ownership, or other financial interests in a VIE that change in value with changeswhich 1% of the tenant base was on payment plans. Although the Company may receive tenant requests for rent deferrals in the fair value of the VIE’s net assets. The Company continuously re-assesses at each level of the joint venture whether the entity is (i) a VIE, and (ii) if the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. If it was determined an entity in which the Company holds a joint venture interest qualified as a VIE and the Company was the primary beneficiary, the entity would be consolidated.
If, after consideration of the VIE accounting literature, the Company has determined that an entity is not a VIE, the Company assesses the need for consolidation under other provisions of ASC 810. These provisions provide for consolidation of majority-owned entities through a majority voting interest held by the Company providing control, or through determination of control by virtue of the Company being the general partner in a limited partnership or the controlling member of a limited liability company.
In assessing whether the Company is in control of and requiring consolidation of the limited liability company and partnership venture structures, the Company evaluates the respective rights and privileges afforded each member or partner (collectively referred to as “member”). The Company’s member would not be deemed to control the entity if any of the other members have either (i) substantive kickout rights providing the ability to dissolve (liquidate) the entity or otherwise remove the managing member or general partner without cause or (ii) has substantive participating rights in the entity. Substantive participating rights (whether granted by contract or law) provide for the ability to effectively participate in significant decisions of the entity that would be expected to be made in the ordinary course of business.
If it has been determined thatcoming months, the Company does not have control, but does have the abilityexpect to exercise significant influence over the entity,waive its contractual rights under its lease agreements. Further, while occupancy remains strong at 95.8% as of March 31, 2021, in future periods, the Company accounts for these unconsolidated investments undermay experience reduced levels of tenant retention, and reduced foot traffic and lease applications from prospective tenants, as a result of the equity methodimpact of accounting.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, "Business Combinations; Clarifying the Definition of a Business" (“ASU 2017-01”). ASU 2017-01 modifies the requirements to meet the definition of a business underAccounting Standards Codification ("ASC")Topic 805, "Business Combinations." The amendments provide a screen to determine when a set of identifiable assets and liabilities is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. The impact is expected to result in fewer transactions being accounted for as business combinations. The Company believes that this amendment will result in most of its real estate acquisitions being accounted for as asset acquisitions rather than business combinations. ASU 2017-01 is effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2017. The impact to the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes as a result of the adoption of this standard is primarily related to the difference in the accounting of acquisition costs. When accounting for these costs as a part of an asset acquisition, the Company is permitted to capitalize the costs. Upon the adoption of ASU 2017-01 the Company evaluates each acquisition of real estate or in-substance real estate to determine if the integrated set of assets and activities acquired meet the definition of a business and need to be accounted as a business combination. All acquisitions of real estate by the Company during 2017 to date do not meet the new definition of a business.
In November 2016,August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, "Statement of Cash Flows; Restricted Cash"2020-06 “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASU 2016-18”2020-06”). This update requires that a statement of cash flows explainThe guidance in ASU 2020-06 simplifies the change duringaccounting for convertible debt and convertible preferred stock by removing the periodrequirements to separately present certain conversion features in equity. In addition, the amendments in the totalASU 2020-06 also simplify the guidance in ASC Subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, by removing certain criteria that must be satisfied to classify a contract as equity, which is expected to decrease the number of cash, cash equivalents,freestanding instruments and amounts generally describedembedded derivatives accounted for as restrictedassets or liabilities. Finally, the amendments revise the guidance on calculating earnings per share, requiring use of the if-converted method for all convertible instruments and rescinding an entity’s ability to rebut the presumption of share settlement for instruments that may be settled in cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows.other assets. The Company will adjust the consolidated statement of cash flows as requiredamendments in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-08 in 2018. ASU 2016-18 is2020-06 are effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted.
In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”). The ASU provides guidance on the treatment of cash receipts and cash payments for certain types of cash transactions, to eliminate diversity in practice in the presentation of the cash flow statement. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2016-15 are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those2021. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years. Earlier application was permitted. The Company will adjust the consolidated statement of cash flows as required in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-15 in 2018.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-07, “Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting” (“ASU 2016-07”), which eliminates the requirement to retroactively adjust an investment, results of operations, and retained earnings when the investment qualifies for the use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periodsyears beginning after December 15, 2016. ASU 2016-07 did not have a material impact on2020. The guidance must be adopted as of the Company’s financial statements when adopted.
In June 2016,beginning of the FASB updated ASC Topic 326 "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses" with 2016-13 “Measurementfiscal year of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-03”). ASU 2016-13 enhances the methodology of measuring expected credit losses to include the use of forward-looking information to better inform credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods (including interim periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2019.adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance and has not determined the impact of this standard may have on the Company’s financial statements.new guidance.
In February 2016,January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases2021-01 "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 842)” (“848)" ("ASU 2016-02”2021-01"). UnderThe amendments in ASU 2016-02, an entity2021-01 permit entities to elect certain optional expedients in connection with reference rate reform activities and their impact on debt, contract modifications and derivative instruments as it is expected the global market will transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The amendments in ASU 2021-01 can be requiredapplied retrospectively to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 offers specific accounting guidance for a lessee, a lessor and sale and leaseback transactions. Lessees and lessors are required to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about leasing arrangements to enable a user of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. For public companies, ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted.include or are subsequent to March 12, 2020 or applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. The Company expects that, because of the ASU 2016-02’s emphasis on lessee accounting, ASU 2016-02 will not have a material impact on the Company’s accounting for leases. Consistent with present standards, the Company will continue to account for lease revenue on a straight-line basis. Also, consistent with the Company’s current practice, under ASU 2016-02 only initial direct costs that are incremental to the lessor will be capitalized.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”). Under the new standard, revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. Revenue is generally recognized net of allowances. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers-Deferral of the Effective Date which defers the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard until the first quarter of 2018. Therefore, ASU 2014-09 will become effective for the Company in the first quarter of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, but not earlier than the first quarter of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017. The ASU allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption. The Company has selected the modified retrospective approach. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which adds guidance on identifying performance obligations within a contract. The majority of the Company’s revenue is derived from rental income, which is scoped out from this standard and will be accounted for under ASU 2016-02, Leases, discussed above. The Company’s other revenue streams, which are being evaluated under this ASU, include but are not limited to other property revenues and interest income from related parties determined not to be within the scope of ASU 2016-02, and gains and losses from real estate dispositions. The Company will continue to assesscurrently evaluating the impact of thethis new standard and will adopt it as of January 1, 2018, however, the Company does expect additional disclosures that are required from the adoption of this standard.guidance.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, “Principal Versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross Versus Net) (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2016-08”),which updates the new revenue standard by clarifying the principal versus agent implementation guidance, but does not change the core principle of the new standard. The updates to the principal versus agent guidance (1) require an entity to determine whether it is a principal or an agent for each distinct good or service (or a distinct bundle of goods or services) to be provided to the customer; (2) illustrate how an entity that is a principal might apply the control principle to goods, services, or rights to services, when another party is involved in providing goods or services to a customer; (3) clarify that the purpose of certain specific control indicators is to support or assist in the assessment of whether an entity controls a specified good or service before it is transferred to the customer, provide more specific guidance on how the indicators should be considered, and clarify that their relevance will vary depending on the facts and circumstances; and (4) revise existing examples and add two new ones to more clearly depict how the guidance should be applied. The effective date and transition requirements for ASU 2016-08 are the same as the effective date and transition requirements of Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (see ASU 2014-09 above). The majority of the Company’s revenue is derived from rental income, which is scoped out from this standard and will be accounted for under ASU 2016-02, Leases, discussed above. The Company will continue to assess the impact of the new standard and will adopt it as of January 1, 2018, however, as noted above in Note 2, the Company has reclassified certain tenant reimbursements as other property revenues and does expect additional disclosures from the adoption of this standard.
In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05 "Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20)" ("ASU 2017-05"). ASU 2017-05 clarifies that a financial asset is within the scope of Subtopic 610-20 if it meets the definition of an in substance nonfinancial asset. ASU 2017-05 also defines the term in substance nonfinancial asset. It is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of this standard is not anticipated to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Note 3 – Sale of Real Estate AssetAssets and AbandonmentHeld for Sale Properties
Sale of Development ProjectARIUM Grandewood
On January 28, 2021, the Company closed on the sale of ARIUM Grandewood located in Orlando, Florida. The property was sold for approximately $65.3 million, subject to certain prorations and adjustments typical in such real estate transactions. ARIUM Grandewood was encumbered by a $39.1 million senior mortgage through the Master Credit Facility Agreement (refer to Note 8 for further information). Under the agreement, the Company had the option to forgo the repayment of the principal balance and any related prepayment penalties and costs by substituting the collateral securing the senior mortgage with collateral of the same or higher value. The Company elected to substitute the ARIUM Grandewood collateral with its Falls at Forsyth property and the transaction was completed on February 18, 2021. After consideration of the $39.1 million senior mortgage and payment of closing costs and fees of $1.1 million, the sale of ARIUM Grandewood generated net proceeds of approximately $25.1 million and a gain on sale of approximately $27.7 million. The Company recorded debt modification costs of $0.1 million related to the collateral substitution transaction.

The mortgage loans encumbering the Company’s properties are generally nonrecourse, subject to certain exceptions for which the Company would be liable for any resulting losses incurred by the lender. These exceptions vary from loan to loan but generally include fraud or a material misrepresentation, misstatement or omission by the borrower, intentional or grossly negligent conduct by the borrower that harms the property or results in a loss to the lender, filing of a bankruptcy petition by the borrower, either directly or indirectly, and certain environmental liabilities. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain events, such as fraud or filing of a bankruptcy petition by the borrower, the Company or our joint ventures would be liable for the entire outstanding balance of the loan, all interest accrued thereon and certain other costs, including penalties and expenses. The mortgage loans generally have a period where a prepayment fee or yield maintenance would be required.

Note 9 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair Value Measurements
For financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis, fair value is the price the Company would expect to receive to sell an asset, or pay to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date under current market conditions. In the absence of such data, fair value is estimated using internal information consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction.
In determining fair value, observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions; preference is given to observable inputs. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States of America (“GAAP”) and as defined in ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, these two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
If the inputs used to measure the fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the fair value is determined based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Whenever possible, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine fair value. In the absence of quoted market prices, the Company uses independent sources and data to determine fair value.
Financial Instrument Fair Value Disclosures
As of September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2016, the Company believes2020, the carrying valuevalues of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, due to and due from affiliates, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and distributions payable approximate their fair value based on their highly-liquid nature and/or short-term maturities. BasedThe carrying values of notes receivable approximate fair value because stated interest rate terms are consistent with interest rate terms on new deals with similar leverage and risk profiles. The fair values of notes receivable are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to the significant unobservable inputs that are utilized in their respective valuations.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The estimated fair values of derivative financial instruments are valued using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and volatility. The fair value of interest rate caps is determined using the market-standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts which would occur if floating interest rates rise above the strike rate of the caps. The floating interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts on the cap are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities. The inputs used in the valuation of interest rate caps fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Fair Value of Debt
As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, based on the discounted amount of future cash flows using rates currently available to the Company for similar liabilities, the fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is estimated at $856.0$1,498.0 million and $714.8$1,586.0 million, as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, compared to the carrying amounts, before adjustments for deferred financing costs, net, of $855.6$1,471.6 million and $717.5$1,541.1 million, respectively. The fair value of mortgages payable is estimated based on the Company’s current interest rates (Level 3 inputs as defined in ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement”)of the fair value hierarchy) for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Note 10 – Derivative Financial Instruments
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s borrowings.
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivative financial instruments are to add stability to interest expense and to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate caps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate caps involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an up-front premium.
The Company has not designated any of the interest rate derivatives as hedges. Although these derivative financial instruments were not designated or did not qualify for hedge accounting, the Company believes the derivative financial instruments are effective economic hedges against increases in interest rates. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
As of March 31, 2021, the Company had interest rate caps which effectively limit the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk by providing a ceiling on the underlying floating interest rate for $280.5 million of the Company’s floating rate mortgage debt.
The table below presents the classification and fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments on the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and the classification and effect of the Company’s derivative financial instruments on the consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 (amounts in thousands):

On August 4, 2017, we announced that we, our Manager and the Contributors had entered into definitive agreements, as amended, (the “Contribution Agreement”) providing for the acquisition (the “Internalization”) by the Company of a newly-formed entity that will own the assets that our Manager uses to operate the business of the Company. The consideration to be paid to the Contributors in connection with the Internalization is based on a formula agreed to at the time the parties originally entered into the Management Agreement in April 2014, in connection with the Company’s initial public offering, and is equal to three (3) times the sum of the base management fee and incentive fee, in each case earned by the Manager under the current Management Agreement between the Manager, the Company and the Operating Partnership (the “Management Agreement”) during the 12-month period ending on the last day of the month of the most recently completed fiscal quarter prior to closing, which was the three months ended September 30, 2017 (the “Consideration”).
The Consideration is to be paid in a combination of OP Units, shares of the Company’s common stock, newly reclassified as Class C common stock (“Class C Common Stock”), and a de minimis amount of cash, and otherwise on terms consistent with the Contribution Agreement. The number of shares of Class C Common Stock and the number of OP Units to be issued in the Internalization is based on a per share and per OP Unit price, which is based on the volume-weighted average price on the NYSE MKT of our Class A common stock for the twenty (20) trading days beginning on and including September 11, 2017 through and including October 6, 2017, per an amendment dated August 9, 2017 to the definitive agreement, which the Company determined to be $10.64.

Note 1112 – Stockholders’ Equity and Redeemable Preferred Stock
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, less dividends on restricted stock and LTIP Units expected to vest, plus gains on redemptions on common stock, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and any potential dilutive shares for the period. Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders is computed by adjusting net income (loss) for the non-forfeitable dividends paid on restricted stock and non-vested restricted stock.LTIP Units.
The Company considers the requirements of the two-class method when preparing earnings per share. The Company has two classes of common stock outstanding: Class A common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and Class C common stock, $0.01 par value per share. Earnings per share is not affected by the two-class method because the Company’s Class A and B-3C common stock and LTIP Units participate in dividends on a one-for-one basis.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts (including any statements concerning investment objectives, other plans and objectives of management for future operations or economic performance, or assumptions or forecasts related thereto) are “forward-looking statements,” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are only predictions. We caution that forward-looking statements are not guarantees. Actual events or our investments and results of operations could differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “should,” “expect,” “could,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” “predict,” “potential” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology.
The forward-looking statements included herein are based upon our current expectations, plans, estimates, assumptions and beliefs that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Factors
Currently, one of the most significant factors, however, is the potential adverse effect of the current pandemic of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) on the financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance of the Company and its tenants of our properties, business partners within our network and service providers, as well as the real estate market and the global economy and financial markets. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts the Company and its tenants will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact (including governmental actions that may vary by jurisdiction, such as mandated business closing; “stay-at-home” orders; limits on group activity; and actions to protect residential tenants from eviction), and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others. Moreover, you should interpret many of the risks identified in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as the risks set forth below, as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of COVID-19.

financing risks, including the risks that our cash flows from operations may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest and we may be unable to refinance our existing debt upon maturity or obtain new financing on attractive terms or at all; |
lack of or insufficient amounts of insurance; |
our ability to maintain our qualification as a REIT; |
litigation, including costs associated with prosecuting or defending claims and any adverse outcomes; and |
possible environmental liabilities, including costs, fines or penalties that may be incurred due to necessary remediation of contamination of properties presently owned or previously owned by us or a subsidiary owned by us or acquired by us. |

Our objective is to maximize long-term stockholder value by acquiring and developing well-located institutional-quality apartment properties in demographically attractiveknowledge economy growth markets across the United States. We seek to maximize returns through investments where we believe we can drive substantial growth in our funds from operations, adjustedcore funds from operations and net asset value primarily through one or more of our Core-Plus, Value-Add Opportunistic and Invest-to-Own investment strategies.
We conduct our operations through Bluerock Residential Holdings, L.P., our operating partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), of which we are the sole general partner. The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries.
As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, our portfolio consisted of interestsinvestments held in thirty-fivefifty-five real estate properties, (twenty-fiveconsisting of thirty-four consolidated operating properties and tentwenty-one properties through preferred equity, mezzanine loan or ground lease investments. Of the property interests held through preferred equity, mezzanine loan or ground lease investments, five are under development, properties).one is in lease-up and fifteen properties are stabilized. The thirty-fivefifty-five properties contain an aggregate of 10,76116,457 units, comprised of 8,16611,584 consolidated operating units and 2,5954,873 units under development.through preferred equity, mezzanine loan or ground lease investments. As of September 30, 2017, these properties, exclusive ofMarch 31, 2021, our developmentconsolidated operating properties were approximately 94%95.8% occupied.
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code and have qualified as a REIT commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2010. In order to continue to qualify as a REIT, we must distribute to our stockholders each calendar year at least 90% of our taxable income (excluding net capital gains). If we qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that we distribute to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify as a REIT for four years following the year in which our qualification is denied. Such an event could materially and adversely affect our net income and results of operations. We intend to continue to organize and operate in such a manner as to remain qualified as a REIT.

Management Internalization
On October 26, 2017, at the annual meeting of stockholders, our stockholders approved the issuance, pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, of (i) OP Units, and shares of the our Class A Common Stock that may be issued in the our discretion upon redemption of such OP Units in certain circumstances, and (ii) shares of the our Class C Common Stock, and shares of the our Class A Common Stock that may be issued upon conversion of such shares of Class C Common Stock in certain circumstances; in each case, to the applicable contributor and its affiliates and related persons (each, a “Contributor”) in connection with the Internalization.

Upon closing of the Internalization, we became a self-managed real estate investment trust. The following key executives and officers of our Manager assumed the following titles and duties with the Company: Mr. R. Ramin Kamfar serves as our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer; Mr. James G, Babb, III, serves as our Chief Investment Officer; Mr. Ryan S. MacDonald serves as our Chief Acquisitions Officer; Mr. Jordan B. Ruddy serves as our Chief Operating Officer and President; Mr. Christopher J. Vohs serves as our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer; and Mr. Michael L. Konig serves as our Chief Legal Officer and Secretary. Messrs. Kamfar, Babb, MacDonald, Ruddy and Vohs have entered into employment agreements with an indirect subsidiary of the Company, and Mr. Konig has likewise entered into a services agreement with that subsidiary through his wholly-owned law firm, Konig & Associates, LLC on substantially the same terms as the employment agreements. Each such agreement became effective upon Closing, and has an initial term through and including December 31, 2020. As such, following the Internalization, our senior management team continues to oversee, manage and operate the Company, and weWe are no longer externally managed by the Manager. As an internally managed company, we no longer pay the Manager any fees or expense reimbursements arising from the Management Agreement.
A special committee comprised entirely of independent and disinterested members of our board of directors (the “Special Committee”), which retained independent legal and financial advisors, unanimously determined that the entry into the Contribution Agreement and the completion of the Internalization are in the best interests of the Company. Our board of directors, by unanimous vote, made a similar determination.
In conjunction with the Internalization, 212,203 outstanding LTIP Units issued as incentive equity to our Manager became vested in accordance with their original terms.

While we did not incur any significant impact on our performance during the three months ended March 31, 2017
(3)Does not include any share activity not noted above2021 from the COVID-19 pandemic, going forward we cannot predict the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our financial condition, results of operations and LTIP Units does notcash flows due to the numerous uncertainties. These uncertainties include the issuancescope, severity and duration of LTIPs for the base management feepandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others. The outbreak of COVID-19 across the globe, including the United States, has significantly and adversely impacted global economic activity and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The global impact of the outbreak has been rapidly evolving and, as cases of COVID-19, including mutating variants of COVID-19, have continued to be identified in additional countries, many countries, including the United States, have reacted by instituting quarantines, mandating business and school closures and restricting travel. Certain states and cities, including where we own communities, have developments and where our Company has places of business located, have also reacted by instituting quarantines, restrictions on travel, "stay-at-home" orders, restrictions on types of business that may continue to operate, and/or restrictions on the types of construction projects that may continue. We cannot predict if additional states and cities will implement similar restrictions or when restrictions currently in place will expire. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic is negatively impacting almost every industry directly or indirectly, including industries in which our tenants are employed. Further, the impacts of a potential worsening of global economic conditions and the continued disruptions to, and volatility in, the credit and financial markets, consumer spending as well as other unanticipated consequences remain unknown. We also are unable to predict the impact that COVID-19 will have on our tenants, business partners within our network, and our service providers; and therefore, any material effect on these parties could adversely impact us.
35
As of March 31, 2021, we collected 97% of rents from our multifamily properties for the three months ended SeptemberMarch 31, 2021. As of April 30, 20172021, we collected 98% of April rents from our multifamily properties. In prior quarters, we had provided rent deferral payment plans as a result of hardships certain tenants experienced due to the impact of COVID-19; for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company did not provide any rent deferral payment plans, compared to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic (quarter ended June 30, 2020) in which 1% of our tenant base was estimatedon payment plans. Although we may receive tenant requests for rent deferrals in the coming months, we do not expect to waive our contractual rights under our lease agreements. Further, while occupancy remains strong at 253,30095.8% and 96.3% as of March 31, 2021 and April 30, 2021, in future periods, we may experience reduced levels of tenant retention, and reduced foot traffic and lease applications from prospective tenants, as a result of the impact of COVID-19.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our rental revenue for the second quarter of 2021 and thereafter cannot be determined at September 30, 2017 basedpresent. The situation surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic remains uncertain, and we are actively managing our response in collaboration with business partners in our network and service providers and assessing potential impacts to our financial position and operating results, as well as potential adverse developments in our business. For further information regarding the impact of COVID-19 on the $11.06Company, see Part II, Item 1A titled "Risk Factors." While we expect COVID-19 to adversely impact our tenants in the short term, we believe the knowledge economy renter by choice targeted by our Class A affordable rent strategy should be less impacted by COVID-19 related job loss, which should provide a downside buffer in the interim and allow us to reaccelerate rent growth more quickly once more economic certainty exists around the COVID-19 pandemic.
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken actions to prioritize the health and well-being of our tenants and our employees, while maintaining our high standard of service. As of March 31, 2021, all our properties are open and are complying with federal, state and local government orders. In keeping with such orders, we have implemented, and will continue to implement, operational changes, including the adoption of social distancing practices, additional use of PPE equipment and a virtual leasing/virtual office structure. Our property offices are now open to the public and to residents by appointment and with strict social distancing protocols in place. Work orders are now being completed, also with strict safety protocols in place including PPE equipment and a safety questionnaire of each resident at time of request. Generally, the outdoor amenity areas at our communities, including pools, pet parks, and outdoor social areas, have re-opened with strict social distancing protocols, limited capacity and cleaning protocols implemented. Our properties continue the cleaning protocols for the sanitization of all community common areas (including handrails, doors and elevators).

We move properties previously excluded from our same store portfolio for these reasons into the same store designation once they have stabilized or the development or redevelopment is complete and such status has been reflected fully in all quarters during the applicable periods of comparison. For newly constructed or lease-up properties or properties undergoing significant redevelopment, we consider a property stabilized upon attainment of 90%90.0% physical occupancy, subject to loss-to-lease, bad debt and rent concessions.

Net Operating Income
We believe that net operating income (“NOI”), is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization and interest. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. NOI also is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company'scompany’s operating performance.
We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same store and non-same store basis becausebasis; NOI allows us to evaluate the operating performance of our properties because it measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses.
However, NOI should only be used as an alternativea supplemental measure of our financial performance. The following table reflects net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders together with a reconciliation to NOI and to same store and non-same store contributions to consolidated NOI, as computed in accordance with GAAP for the periods presented (amounts in thousands):

Further, while occupancy remains strong at 95.8% and 96.3% as of March 31, 2021 and April 30, 2021, respectively, in future periods we may experience reduced levels of tenant retention, and reduced foot traffic and lease applications from prospective tenants, as a result of COVID-19 impact.
As we did in 2020 and to date in 2021, we expect to maintain a proactive capital allocation process and selectively sell assets at appropriate cap rates, which would be expected to generate cash sources for both our short-term and long-term liquidity needs. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 impact, we had suspended interior renovations at several properties as part of assuming a more conservative posture; however, we have selectively restarted the program at September 30, 2017.
Subsequent to September 30, 2017, the Company, through its Operating Partnership, entered into a credit agreement (the “Senior Credit Facility”) with KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”) and other lenders. The Senior Credit Facility provides for an initial loan commitment amount of $150 million, which commitment contains an accordion feature up to a maximum commitment of up to $250 million. The availability of borrowings will be basedvarious properties as we gained more visibility on the value of a pool of collateral propertieseconomic recovery nationally and compliance with various ratios related to those assets. In addition, we have begun negotiating an additional bank credit facility pursuant to a non-binding term sheet, and we believe this facility will enable us to deploywithin our capital more efficiently and provide capital structure flexibility as we continue raising capital through our Series B continuous offering. No definitive agreements have been entered into and we provide no assurances that we will enter into this credit facility.
specific markets.
In general, we believe our available cash balances, the proceeds from our continuous Series T Preferred Offering, the Series B preferred stock continuous offering,Amended Senior and Second Amended Junior Credit Facilities, the Senior CreditFannie Facility, other financing arrangements and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund our liquidity requirements with respect to our existing portfolio for the next 12 months. We expect that properties added to our portfolio with the proceeds from the Follow-On Offerings, and the properties we expect to acquire with the proceeds from our continuous Series B preferred stock continuous offeringT Preferred Offering and from our recent property sales,the credit facilities will have a significant positive impact on our future results of operations. In general, we expect that our results related to our portfolio will improve in future periods as a result of anticipated future investments in and acquisitions of real estate, includingestate. However, there can be no assurance that the worldwide economic disruptions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic will not cause conditions in the lending, capital and other financial markets to deteriorate, nor that our investmentsfuture revenues or access to capital and other sources of funding will not become constrained, which could reduce the amount of liquidity and credit available for use in development projects.

Only 5.6%, or $82.0 million, of our mortgage debt is maturing through the remainder of 2021, of which $74.7 million is a loan with a June 2021 maturity and contains two (2) three-month extension options, subject to certain conditions.

In October 2020, our Board authorized new stock repurchase plans for the repurchase, from time to time, of up to an aggregate of $75 million in outstanding shares of our Class A common stock, Series A Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and/or Series D Preferred Stock. On February 9, 2021, our Board authorized the modification of the stock repurchase plans to increase the maximum repurchase amount from an aggregate of $75 million in shares to $150 million in shares. The repurchase plans will terminate upon the earliest to occur of certain specified events as set forth therein. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we purchased 3,557,562 shares of Class A common stock for a total purchase price of approximately $40.7 million. As of March 31, 2021, the value of shares that may yet be purchased under the repurchase plans is $90.3 million.
At the current time, we do not anticipate the need to establish any material contingency reserves related to the COVID-19 pandemic, but we continue to assess along with our network of business partners the possible need for such contingencies, whether at the corporate or property level.
As equity capital market conditions permit, we may supplement our capital for short-term liquidity needs with proceeds of our Class A ATM Offering and potential offerings of common and preferred stock through underwritten offerings, as well as issuance of units of limited partnership interest in our Operating Partnership, or OP Units. Given the significant volatility in the trading price of our Class A common stock and REIT equities generally associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and our otherwise stable financial condition and liquidity position, we cannot provide assurances that these offerings are a likely source of capital to meet short-term liquidity needs.
Our primary long-term liquidity requirements relate to (a) costs for additional apartment community investments;investments, (b) repayment of long-term debt;debt and our credit facilities, (c) capital expenditures; andexpenditures, (d) cash redemption requirements related to our Series AB Preferred Stock, Series BC Preferred Stock and Series CT Preferred Stock.
Stock, and (e) Class A common stock repurchases under our stock repurchase plans.
We intend to finance our long-term liquidity requirements with net proceeds of additional issuances of common and preferred stock, including our continuous Series BT Preferred Stock, the Senior Credit Facility,Offering, our credit facilities, as well as future borrowings. We entered into the Senior Credit Facility on October 4, 2017, and we believe this facility will enable us to deploy our capital more efficiently and provide capital structure flexibility as we grow our asset base. Our success in meeting these requirements will therefore depend upon our ability to access capital. Further, our ability to access equity capital is dependent upon, among other things, general market conditions for REITs and the capital markets generally, market perceptions about us and our asset class, and current trading prices of our securities.securities, all of which may continue to be adversely impacted by COVID-19 pandemic.
WeAs we did in 2020 and to date in 2021, we may also selectively sell assets at appropriate times, which would be expected to generate cash sources for both our short-term and long-term liquidity needs.
We may also meet our long-term liquidity needs through borrowings from a number of sources, either at the corporate or project level. We believe the Amended Senior and Second Amended Junior Credit Facilities, as well as the Fannie Facility, will continue to enable us to deploy our capital more efficiently and provide capital structure flexibility as we grow our asset base. We expect the combination of these facilities to provide us flexibility by allowing us, among other things, to use borrowings under our Amended Senior and Second Amended Junior Credit Facilities to acquire properties pending placement of permanent mortgage indebtedness, including under the Fannie Facility. In addition to restrictive covenants, these credit facilities contain material financial covenants. At March 31, 2021, we were in compliance with all covenants under our credit facilities. We will continue to monitor the debt markets, including Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and as market conditions permit, access borrowings that are advantageous to us.
We intend to continue to use prudent amounts of leverage in making our investments, which we define as having total indebtedness of approximately 65% of the fair market value of the properties in which we have invested as determined by our Manager.invested. For purposes of calculating our leverage, we assume full consolidation of all of our real estate investments, whether or not they would be consolidated under GAAP, include assets we have classified as held for sale, and include any joint venture level indebtedness in our total indebtedness. However, we are not subject to any limitations on the amount of leverage we may use, and accordingly, the amount of leverage we use may be significantly less or greater than we currently anticipate. We expect our leverage to decline commensurately as we execute our business plan to grow our net asset value.
If we are unable to obtain financing on favorable terms or at all, we would likely need to curtail our investment activities, including acquisitions and improvements to and developments of, real properties, which could limit our growth prospects. This, in turn, could reduce cash available for distribution to our stockholders and may hinder our ability to raise capital by issuing more securities or borrowing more money. We also may be forced to dispose of assets at inopportune times in order to maintain our REIT qualification and Investment Company Act exemption.

We expect to maintain a distributiondistributions paid to our Series A Preferred Stock, our Series B Preferred Stock, our Series C Preferred Stock, our Series D Preferred Stock and our Series DT Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of those securities which require monthly or quarterly dividends depending on the series. On August 4, 2017, the board of directors announced that it initiated, in conjunction with a financial advisor, a comprehensive review of the appropriate dividend policy for the Company's Class A Common Stock. The board's evaluation will consider factors including, but not limited to, achieving a sustainable dividend covered by current recurring AFFO (vs. pro forma AFFO), multifamily and small cap peer dividend rates, multifamily and small cap peer payout ratios, providing financial flexibility for the Company, and achieving an appropriate balance between the retention of capital to invest and grow net asset value, and the importance of current distributions. The board is expected to complete its review of the dividend policy for the Company's Class A Common Stock in the fourth quarter of 2017. Currently, the Company maintains a distribution paid on a monthly basis to all of our Class A common stockholders at a quarterly rate of $0.29 per share. In August 2017, we announced that our Board is undertaking a review of our dividend policy, and that the 2018 annual dividend range for our Class A Common Stock would likely be between $0.65 and $0.75 per Class A common share. While our policy is generally to pay distributions from cash flow from operations, our distributions through September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 have been paid from cash flow from operations, proceeds from our continuous registered public offering,preferred stock offerings, including our Series T Preferred Stock, sales of assets, proceeds from the IPO and Follow-On Offerings, and sales of assetsunderwritten securities offerings, and may in the future be paid from additional sources, such as from borrowings.
Since June 30, 2015,We have notes receivable in conjunction with properties that are in various stages of development, in lease-up and operating. To date, these investments have generally been structured as mezzanine loans, and in the future, we may also provide mortgage financing to these types of projects. The notes receivable provide a current stated return, and in certain cases, an accrued return, and required repayment based on a fixed maturity date, generally in relation to the property's construction loan or mortgage loan maturity. If the property does not repay the notes receivable upon maturity, our income, FFO, CFFO and cash flows could be reduced below the stated returns currently being recognized if the property does not produce sufficient cash flow to pay its operating expenses and debt service, or to refinance its debt obligations. In addition, we have, paidin certain cases, an option to purchase up to 100% of the common interest which holds an interest in the entity that owns the property. If we were to convert into common ownership, our base management feesincome, FFO, CFFO and incentive feescash flows would be reflective of our pro rata share of the property's results, which could be a reduction from what our notes receivable currently generate.
We also have preferred membership interests in LTIPsproperties that are in lieuvarious stages of cash. In conjunction with the internalization,development, in lease-up and operating. Our preferred equity investments are structured to provide a current preferred return, and in some cases, an accrued return, during all phases. Each joint venture in which we will no longer be responsible for paying the base management fee or incentive fee,own a preferred membership interest is required to redeem our preferred membership interests, plus any accrued but unpaid preferred return, based on a fixed maturity date, generally in relation to the extent thatproperty’s construction loan or mortgage loan maturity. Upon redemption of the preferred membership interests, our income, FFO, CFFO and cash flows could be reduced below the preferred returns currently being recognized. Alternatively, if the joint ventures do not redeem our preferred membership interest when required, our income, FFO, CFFO and cash flows could be reduced if the property does not produce sufficient cash flow to pay its operating expenses, debt service and preferred return obligations. As we will be paying additional generalevaluate our capital position and administrative expenses in replacement thereof, they will be paid in cash.capital allocation strategy, we may consider alternative means of financing the loan and preferred equity investment activities at the subsidiary level.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have had or are reasonably likely tomay have a material effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital resources or capital expenditures.

Funds from Operations and AdjustedCore Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Stockholders and Unit Holders
FundsWe believe that funds from operations (“FFO”), as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), and core funds from operations (“CFFO”) are important non-GAAP supplemental measures of operating performance for a REIT.
FFO attributable to common stockholders (“FFO”),and unit holders is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our operating performance as it is based on a net income analysis of property portfolio performance that excludes non-cash items such as depreciation. The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT, using historical accounting for depreciation, could be less informative. We define FFO, consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT's,NAREIT definition, as net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) fromor losses on sales of depreciable real estate property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, plus impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities where the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for notes receivable, unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.
In additionCFFO makes certain adjustments to FFO, we use adjusted funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“AFFO”). AFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's operating performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. In computing AFFO, we further adjust FFO by adding back certain items that are not added to net income in NAREIT's definition of FFO,operations such as acquisition and pursuit costs, equity based compensation expenses, and any other non-recurring or non-cash expenses, which are costs that do not relate to the operating performance of our properties, and subtracting recurring capital expenditures (and when calculating the quarterly incentive fee payable to our Manager only, we further adjust FFO to include any realizedinterest expense, unrealized gains or losses on our real estate investments).
Duringderivatives, losses on extinguishment of debt and debt modification costs (includes prepayment penalties incurred and the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we incurred $3.2 millionwrite-off of acquisitionunamortized deferred financing costs and pursuitfair market value adjustments of assumed debt), one-time weather-related costs, stock compensation expense and $3.7 millionpreferred stock accretion. We believe that CFFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of disposition expense,certain items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to our core recurring property operations. As a result, we believe that CFFO can help facilitate comparisons of which $2.5 millionoperating performance between periods and $3.1 million, respectively, was our pro rata shareprovides a more meaningful predictor of the expense. We incurred $2.1 million of acquisition and pursuit expense and $0.4 million of disposition expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, of which $2.5 million was our pro-rata share of expense. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 which resulted in the capitalization of costs incurred in asset acquisitions purchased after the effective date of January 1, 2017.
future earnings potential.
Our calculation of AFFOCFFO differs from the methodology used for calculating AFFOCFFO by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our AFFOCFFO may not be comparable to AFFOCFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and AFFOCFFO as measures of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization expenses, and acquisition and pursuit costs that are required by GAAP to be expensed but may not necessarily be indicative of current operating performance and that may not accurately compare our operating performance between periods. Furthermore, although FFO AFFOand CFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we also believe that FFO and AFFOCFFO may provide us and our stockholders with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. We also use AFFO for purposes

Table of determining the quarterly incentive fee, if any, payable to our Manager.Contents
Neither FFO nor AFFOCFFO is equivalent to net income (loss), including net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and AFFOCFFO do not represent amounts available for management's discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. Neither FFO nor AFFOCFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), including net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

Our Board will determine the amount of dividends to be paid to our stockholders. The Board’sBoard's determination will be based on a number ofseveral factors, including funds available from operations, our capital expenditure requirements and the annual distribution requirements necessary to maintain our REIT status under the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, our distribution rate and payment frequency may vary from time to time. However, to qualify as a REIT for tax purposes, we must make distributions equal to at least 90% of our “REIT"REIT taxable income”income" each year. Especially during the early stages ofWhile our policy is generally to pay distributions from cash flow from operations, we may declare distributions in excess of funds from operations.
Distributions paid for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, were funded from cash provided by operating activities except with respect to $9.6$3.9 million for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021 which was funded from sales of real estate, borrowings, and/or proceeds from our equity offerings.

SeeRefer to Note 13 to14 of our interim Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily through borrowing activities. There is inherent roll-over risk for borrowings as they mature and are renewed at current market rates. The extent of this risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and our future financing requirements. We are not subject to foreign exchange rates or commodity price risk, and all of our financial instruments were entered into for other than trading purposes.
51
Our interest rate risk is monitored using a variety of techniques. The table below presents the principal payments (in thousands) and the weighted average interest rates on outstanding debt, by year of expected maturity, to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes. Fair value adjustments and unamortized deferred financing costs, net, of approximately $(4.6) million are excluded:

The table above incorporates those exposures that exist as of September 30, 2017;March 31, 2021; it does not consider those exposures or positions which could arise after that date. As a result, our ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during the period and interest rates.
As of March 31, 2021, we had nine interest rate caps, which are not accounted for as hedges, that we primarily use as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Our interest rate caps effectively limit our exposure to interest rate risk by providing a ceiling on the underlying floating interest rates of our floating rate debt.
As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, a 100 basis100-basis point increase or decrease in interest rates on the portion of our debt bearing interest at variablefloating rates would result in an increase in interest expense of approximately $888,000 or decrease in interest expense of approximately $1.0 millionapproximately$92,000, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2021.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief AccountingFinancial Officer, evaluated, as of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief AccountingFinancial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in this report filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the Exchange Act and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief AccountingFinancial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
We believe, however, that a controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls systems are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, within a company have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
None.
None.
Other than the following, there have been no material changes to our potential risks and uncertainties presented in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 20162020 filed with the SEC on February 22, 2017.23, 2021.
Your interests could be diluted by the incurrence of additional debt, the issuance of additional shares of preferred stock, including additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series DT Preferred Stock (together the “Preferred Stock”) and by other transactions.
As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2021, our total long-term indebtedness was approximately $853.6 million,$1.5 billion, and we may incur significant additional debt in the future. The Preferred Stock is subordinate to all of our existing and future debt and liabilities and those of our subsidiaries. Our future debt may include restrictions on our ability to pay dividends to preferred stockholders in the event of a default under the debt facilities or under other circumstances. Our charter currently authorizes the issuance of up to 250,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more classes or series, and as of March 31, 2021, the datenumber of this filing, we have issued 5,721,460preferred shares of Series A Preferred Stock (146,460 of which have been issued in the Series A ATM Offering), 151,610outstanding was as follows: 440,934 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, 2,323,7502,295,845 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, and 2,850,6022,774,338 shares of Series D Preferred Stock and 13,622,291 shares of Series T Preferred Stock. The issuance of additional preferred stock on parity with or senior to the Preferred Stock would dilute the interests of the holders of shares of Preferred Stock, and any issuance of preferred stock senior to the Preferred Stock or of additional indebtedness could affect our ability to pay dividends on, redeem or pay the liquidation preference on the Preferred Stock. We may issue preferred stock on parity with the Preferred Stock without the consent of the holders of the Preferred Stock. Other than the Asset Coverage Ratio, our letter agreement with Cetera Financial Group, Inc. pertaining to our Series B Preferred Stock that requires us to maintain a preferred dividend coverage ratio, the articles supplementary establishing our Series T Preferred Stock that requires us to maintain a preferred dividend coverage ratio, and the right of holders to cause us to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock upon a Change of Control/Delisting, none of the provisions relating to the Preferred Stock relate to or limit our indebtedness or afford the holders of shares of Preferred Stock protection in the event of a highly leveraged or other transaction, including a merger or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all our assets or business, that might adversely affect the holders of shares of Preferred Stock.
Risks Relating to the Internalization Transaction53
The issuance of 76,603 shares of our Class C Common Stock in connection with the Internalization will have a dilutive effect and will reduce the voting power and relative percentage interests of current Class A Common Stockholders in our earnings and market value.
Additionally, part of the Internalization Consideration consists of 3,753,593 OP Units, which may have a dilutive effect on the voting power and percentage interests of our current Class A Common Stockholders. Commencing on the one-year anniversary of the Closing, each OP Unit may be tendered for redemption, at the holder’s option and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the limited partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership, for cash equal to the average closing price of Class A Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date we receive a notice of redemption, or, at our sole option, for shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis, in lieu of cash. If the recipients of OP Units in the Internalization exercise their redemption rights and part or all of their outstanding OP Units are redeemed for shares of our Class A Common Stock, such redemption will have a dilutive effect on our common stock and reduce the relative percentage interests of existing common stockholders in our earnings, voting power and market value.
Future sales of our Class A Common Stock by the Contributors may adversely affect the market price of our Class A Common Stock. These sales also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and price we deem appropriate. Upon consummation of the Internalization, our Operating Partnership will issue a number of OP Units to the Contributors as Internalization Consideration, which OP Units may be redeemed in shares of our Class A Common Stock rather than cash, at the Company’s option. In addition, shares of Class C Common Stock will be convertible, at the holder’s option (at any time and from time to time), into one (1) fully-paid and non-assessable share of our Class A Common Stock, and upon the occurrence of certain transfers of OP Units or shares of Class C Common Stock and similar events, will convert automatically into one (1) fully-paid and non-assessable share of our Class A Common Stock. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our Class A Common Stock by the Contributors, the perception or expectation that such sales may occur, or sales of shares of our Class A Common Stock to cover tax obligations (some of which may occur shortly after the closing of the Internalization), could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and the prevailing market price for shares of our Class A Common Stock.
The Internalization was negotiated between the Special Committee, which is comprised solely of independent and disinterested members of our board of directors, the Manager, which is affiliated with certain of our officers and directors, and the Contributors, including R. Ramin Kamfar, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Gary Kachadurian, one of our directors, and certain other officers.
The Internalization was negotiated with the Manager, which is affiliated with certain of our officers and directors, and the Contributors, including Messrs. Kamfar and Kachadurian, Michael L. Konig, our General Counsel and Secretary, and Christopher A. Vohs, our Chief Accounting Officer and Treasurer. As a result, those officers and directors may have different interests than the Company as a whole. This potential conflict would not exist in the case of a transaction negotiated with unaffiliated third parties. Moreover, if the Manager or any Contributor breaches any of the representations, warranties or covenants made by it in the Contribution Agreement, we may choose not to enforce, or to enforce less vigorously, our rights because of our desire to maintain our ongoing relationship with the Manager, the Contributors and the interests of certain of our directors and officers. Moreover, the representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities in the Contribution Agreement are subject to limitations and qualifiers, which may also limit our ability to enforce any remedy under the Contribution Agreement.
Certain of our directors and executive officers have interests in the Internalization that are different from, and may potentially conflict with, the interests of us and our stockholders.
Certain of our directors and executive officers have interests in the Internalization that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of our stockholders generally and that may create potential conflicts of interest, including (i) the payment of Internalization Consideration in connection with the Internalization directly or indirectly to certain of these individuals, including Messrs. Kamfar, Kachadurian, and Konig, and the entry by the applicable individuals into arrangements relating to the payment of that consideration, and (ii) the entry by Bluerock REIT Operator, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of our Manager (“Manager Sub”), in its post-Closing capacity as an indirect subsidiary of the Company, into employment agreements with Messrs. Kamfar and Vohs as well as James Babb, Jordan Ruddy and Ryan MacDonald, who are executive officers and principals of our Manager, and into a services agreement with Mr. Konig through Konig & Associates, all of which will become effective upon consummation of the Internalization.
In addition, Mr. Kamfar owns a controlling interest in Bluerock Real Estate, L.L.C. (“BRRE”), the sole managing member of our Manager; Messrs. Babb, MacDonald, Ruddy, Vohs and Konig are also executive officers or principals of our Manager; and Mr. Kachadurian is Vice Chairman of the Manager. The respective roles of these individuals in the Manager may create additional conflicts of interest in respect of the Internalization and the related transactions.
Following the Internalization, Mr. Kamfar will control a significant number of votes in any matter presented to our Class A Common Stockholders for approval, including the election of directors.
Although, the 76,603 shares of Class C Common Stock issued in connection with the Internalization is not designed to provide for disproportionate voting rights, the issuance of the Class C Common Stock resulted in Mr. Kamfar controlling significant voting power in matters submitted to a vote of our Class A Common Stockholders as a result of his beneficial ownership of Class C Common Stock (which gives him voting power equal to the economic interest in the Company issued to BRRE in the form of OP Units as if all of those OP Units were redeemed for shares of Class A Common Stock), including the election of directors. Mr. Kamfar may have interests that differ from our other stockholders, including by reason of his direct or indirect interest in our Operating Partnership, and may accordingly vote in ways that may not be consistent with the interests of those other stockholders.
Our net income, FFO and AFFO may decrease in the near term as a result of the Internalization.
We will expense all cash and non-cash costs involved in the Internalization. As a result, our statement of operations and FFO will be negatively impacted, driven predominately by the non-cash charges related to the issuance of OP Units and shares of Class C Common Stock as Internalization Consideration and, to a lesser extent, other transaction-related costs. In addition, while we will no longer effectively bear the costs of the various fees and expense reimbursements previously paid to the Manager after we became internally managed pursuant to the Internalization, our expenses will include the compensation and benefits of our executive officers and the employees of Manager Sub, which will then be our indirect subsidiary, as well as overhead previously paid by the Manager or its affiliates in managing our business and operations. Furthermore, these employees and consultants of Manager Sub will be providing us services historically provided by the Manager. There are no assurances that, following the Internalization, these employees and consultants will be able or incentivized to provide services at the same level or for the same costs as were previously provided to us by the Manager, and there may be other unforeseen costs, expenses and difficulties associated with operating as an internally managed company. If the expenses we assume as a result of the Internalization are higher than the fees that we currently pay the Manager or otherwise higher than we anticipate, we may not realize the anticipated cost savings and other benefits from the Internalization and our net income, FFO and AFFO could decrease further, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Internalization may not be accretive to our stockholders.
The Internalization may not be accretive to our stockholders. While it is intended that the Internalization be accretive to our net income, earnings and AFFO, there can be no assurance that this will be the case, as, among other things, the expenses we assume as a result of the Internalization may be higher than we anticipate and we may not achieve our anticipated cost savings from the Internalization. The failure of the Internalization to be accretive to our stockholders could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may not manage the Internalization effectively or realize its anticipated benefits.
We may not manage the Internalization effectively. The Internalization could be a time-consuming and costly process and we may encounter potential difficulties in the integration process including, among other things:
For all these reasons, you should be aware that it is possible that the Internalization process could result in the distraction of our management, the disruption of our ongoing business or inconsistencies in our operations, services, standards, controls, procedures and policies, any of which could adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with employees or third-parties to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Internalization, or could otherwise adversely affect our business and financial results. Therefore, the failure to plan and manage the Internalization effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We depend on our key executives and other employees of an affiliate of the Manager. There is no guarantee that such key executives and employees will remain employed or engaged by us for any specified period of time, and will not engage in competitive activities if they cease to be employed with or engaged by us.
We depend on the key executives and employees of an affiliate of the Manager. It is expected that, following the consummation of the Internalization, we will continue to substantially depend on the services of Messrs. Kamfar, Babb, MacDonald, Ruddy and Vohs, who have each entered into employment agreements with Manager Sub, which will then be an indirect subsidiary of the Company, and Mr. Konig, who has entered into a services agreement with Manager Sub through Konig & Associates on substantially the same terms as the employment agreements. Each such agreement will become effective upon Closing, and will have an initial term through and including December 31, 2020. These agreements have been structured to incentivize our executives to stay through the end of their initial terms and, subject to the Company’s approval, to extend the terms of service for successive one-year terms. Nevertheless, as is presently the case under the Management Agreement with the Manager, the departure or the loss of the services of any of these individuals, or other senior management personnel or employees, following the Internalization could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and ability to effectively operate our business.
Further, the employment and services agreements entered into by Manager Sub with each of Messrs. Kamfar, Babb, MacDonald, Ruddy, Vohs and Konig contain certain restrictions on these executives, including a restriction on engaging in activities that are deemed competitive to our business. Although we believe these covenants to be enforceable under current law in the states in which we do business, there can be no guarantee that if our executives were to breach these covenants and engage in competitive activities, a court of law would fully enforce these restrictions. If these executives were to terminate their employment or service relationship (as applicable) with Manager Sub and engage in competitive activities, such activities could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Mr. Kamfar and certain other executive officers and members of our senior management team will have competing demands on their time and attention.
Mr. Kamfar, who continues to serve as our Chief Executive Officer and as Chairman of our board of directors following the Internalization, and Messrs. Babb, Ruddy, MacDonald and Konig, will continue to have competing demands on their respective time and attention following the Internalization, principally with respect to the provision of services to certain outside entities affiliated with BRRE. Such competing demands are not expected to be different from those that presently exist, but there is no assurance those demands will not increase and may result in these individuals devoting time to such outside entities in a manner that could adversely affect our business. Under their respective employment or services agreements (as applicable), Mr. Kamfar and our other executive officers are permitted to devote time to certain outside activities, so long as those duties and activities do not unreasonably interfere with the performance of their respective duties to us.
We may be exposed to risks to which we have not historically been exposed, including liabilities with respect to the assets acquired from the Manager.
The Internalization will expose us to risks to which we have not historically been exposed. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, we will incur liabilities with respect to the assets acquired from the Manager and certain of its affiliates. In addition, our overhead will increase as a result of our becoming internally managed, as the responsibility for overhead relating to management of our business currently is borne by the Manager, and will become our responsibility following the Internalization. In addition, in our formerly externally-advised structure, we did not directly employ any employees. As a result of the Internalization, we indirectly, through Manager Sub, employ persons who are currently associated with the Manager or its affiliates. As their employer, we will indirectly, through Manager Sub, be subject to those potential liabilities that are commonly faced by employers, such as workers’ disability and compensation claims, potential labor disputes and other employee-related liabilities and grievances, and we will bear the costs of the establishment and maintenance of employee benefit plans, if established. Furthermore, these employees will be providing us services historically provided by the Manager, which will be provided with the support of the Administrative Services Agreement. There are no assurances that, following the Internalization, these employees of Manager Sub will be able to provide us with the same level of services as were previously provided to us by the Manager, and there may be other unforeseen costs, expenses and difficulties associated with operating as an internally managed company.
The representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities in the Contribution Agreement and related agreements are subject to limitations and qualifiers, which may limit our ability to enforce any remedy under these agreements.
The representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities in the Contribution Agreement, the related Administrative Services Agreement and other agreements related to the Internalization are subject to limitations and qualifiers, which may limit our ability to enforce any remedy under these agreements. These include, without limitation, limitations on liability and materiality qualifiers on certain representations and covenants.
Conflicts of interest may exist or could arise in the future with our Operating Partnership and its limited partners, which may impede business decisions that could benefit our stockholders.
Following the implementation of our Company’s structure as a result of the Internalization, conflicts of interest may exist or could arise as a result of the relationships between us and our affiliates, on the one hand, and our Operating Partnership or any member thereof, on the other. Our directors and officers have duties to our Company and our stockholders under applicable Maryland law in connection with their management of our Company. At the same time, we, as general partner of our Operating Partnership, have fiduciary duties to our Operating Partnership and to its limited partners under Delaware law in connection with the management of our Operating Partnership. Our duties to our Operating Partnership and its limited partners as the general partner may come into conflict with the duties of our directors and officers to our Company and our stockholders. These conflicts may be resolved in a manner that is not in the best interest of our stockholders.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
None.In October 2020, our Board authorized new stock repurchase plans for the repurchase, from time to time, of up to an aggregate of $75.0 million in outstanding shares of our Class A common stock, Series A Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and/or Series D Preferred Stock to be conducted in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 of Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). On February 9, 2021, our Board authorized the modification of the stock repurchase plans to increase the maximum repurchase amount from an aggregate of $75 million in shares to an aggregate of $150 million in shares of Class A common stock, Series C Preferred Stock, and/or Series D Preferred Stock. The repurchase plans will terminate upon the earliest to occur of certain specified events as set forth therein. The extent to which we repurchase shares of our Class A common stock, Series C Preferred Stock and/or Series D Preferred Stock, and the timing of any such purchases, will depend on a variety of factors including general business and market conditions and other corporate considerations. Share repurchases under the repurchase plans may be made in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, subject to certain price limitations and other conditions established under the plans. Open market repurchases will be structured to occur in conformity with the method, timing, price and volume requirements of Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we purchased 3,557,562 shares of Class A common stock for a total purchase price of approximately $40.7 million. We made no repurchases of any series of our preferred stock during the first quarter 2021.
