RE: Get cash now from your Apple Hospitality REIT, Inc. investment.
Dear Investor,
Good news! Now you can sell your Apple investment and regain control of your money. Right now, MacKenzie Capital Management, LP will pay you our INCREASED Offer Price of $7.50 per Share. Now you can do what you want with your money—move it to a more liquid investment, pay off your bills, or buy something you really need-and quit waiting for Apple to decide if or when you get your money back. But this offer expires on April 30, 2015, so you must act soon.
Why take advantage of this opportunity today?
| · | Apple Hospitality has yet to offer you liquidity. Apple announced nearly TWO YEARS AGO that it was “evaluating” potential “strategic alternatives” such as a listing, but it only completed a merger of Apple REIT 7, 8, and 9 which resulted in over $117 million in Shares paid to certain Apple affiliates. Yet, there is still NO LIQUIDITY FOR THE SHARES, and Apple will not provide a specific timetable. Sell today and ensure you get your money out from this security. |
| · | No Redemption Program. Apple’s Share Redemption Program was reinstated in January 2015, although it was limited to death and eligible disability. Further, in February 2015, Apple announced that it will now limit redemptions only to death of a Shareholder! It’s your money, but you can’t access it. |
| · | Sell without broker fees or commissions. Most secondary market sales incur fees and commissions of up to 7% of the sale price and are subject to a $150 - $200 minimum fee per trade. With us, these fees and commissions are eliminated. |
| · | Eliminate the long and uncertain waiting period. Private and non-traded securities like Apple can be very difficult to sell. It can take weeks or months to find an interested buyer and Apple may continue to operate indefinitely! But now you can sell your Shares and get your money out. |
If you act today, you can get your cash now. We will mail your check within three business days after David Lerner confirms the transfer. MacKenzie has been in the business of buying private real estate investments for over 25 years and has successfully cashed-out tens of thousands of investors like you. Our advisory affiliate is a registered investment adviser with the SEC and has over $200 million dollars under management. There are no financing contingencies with this offer.
