BLUEROCK RESIDENTIAL GROWTH REIT, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Organization and Nature of Business

Bluerock Residential Growth REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated as a Maryland corporation on July 25, 2008. The Company’s objective is to maximize long-term stockholder value by acquiring and developing well-located institutional-quality apartment properties in knowledge economy growth markets across the United States. The Company seeks to maximize returns through investments where it believes it can drive substantial growth in its core funds from operations and net asset value primarily through its Value-Add and Invest-to-Own investment strategies.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company held sixty real estate investments, consisting of thirty-five consolidated operating properties and interests in twenty-five properties held through preferred equity, mezzanine loan or ground lease investments. Of the properties in which our interests are held through preferred equity, mezzanine loan or ground lease investments, eight are under development and seventeen are stabilized. The sixty investments contain an aggregate of 17,928 units, comprised of 11,532 consolidated multifamily operating units and 6,396 units through preferred equity, mezzanine loan or ground lease investments. Of the 6,396 units held through preferred, mezzanine loan or ground lease investments, 5,876 are multifamily units and 520 are single-family residential homes. As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s consolidated operating properties were approximately 96.2% occupied.

The Company has elected to be treated, and currently qualifies, as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. As a REIT, the Company generally is not subject to corporate-level income taxes. To maintain its REIT status, the Company is required, among other requirements, to distribute annually at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income,” as defined by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), to the Company’s stockholders. 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 the property interests acquired and investments made on the Company’s behalf. As of June 30, 2021, limited partners other than the Company owned approximately 28.28% of the common units of the Operating Partnership (15.64% is held by holders of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) and 12.64% is held by holders of the Operating Partnership’s long-term incentive plan units (“LTIP Units”), including 5.53% which are not vested at June 30, 2021).

Because the Company is the sole general partner of the 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.

In cases where the Company holds a preferred equity investment in real estate joint ventures where 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 hold the investment until redemption. The preferred equity investments are included 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 preferred 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 year financial statement presentation have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

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 the 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 contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the 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 June 30, 2021, the Company collected 98% of rents from its multifamily properties for the three months ended June 30, 2021. In 2020, the Company had provided rent deferral payment plans as a result of hardships certain tenants experienced due to the impact of COVID-19; for the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company did not provide rent deferral payment plans, compared to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic (quarter ended June 30, 2020) in which 1% of the tenant base was on payment plans. Although the Company may receive tenant requests for rent deferrals in the coming months, the Company does not expect to waive its contractual rights under its lease agreements. Further, while occupancy remains strong at 96.2% as of June 30, 2021, in future periods, the Company 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.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 23, 2021 for discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, there were no material changes to these policies.

Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial reporting, and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-1 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial statements for interim reporting do not include all the information and notes or disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of the operating results for a full year.

The balance sheet at December 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our audited consolidated financial

11

statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on February 23, 2021.

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 August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 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 2020-06”). The guidance in ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible debt and convertible preferred stock by removing the requirements to separately present certain conversion features in equity. In addition, the amendments in the ASU 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 freestanding instruments and embedded derivatives accounted for as assets 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 other assets. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The guidance must be adopted as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance.

In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01 “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)” (“ASU 2021-01”). The amendments in ASU 2021-01 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 applied retrospectively to interim periods that include or are subsequent to March 12, 2020 or applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance.

Note 3 – Sale of Real Estate Assets and Held for Sale Properties

Sale of ARIUM 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 9 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.

Sale of James at South First

Master Credit Facility with Fannie Mae

On April 30, 2018, the Company, through certain subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership, entered into a Master Credit Facility Agreement (the “Fannie Facility”), which was issued through Fannie Mae’s Multifamily Delegated Underwriting and Servicing Program. The Fannie Facility includes certain restrictive covenants, including indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers and asset sales, and distributions. The Fannie Facility also contains events of default, including payment defaults, covenant defaults, bankruptcy events, and change of control events. Each note under the Fannie Facility is cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized and the Company has guaranteed the obligations under the Fannie Facility. As of June 30, 2021, the mortgage loans secured by  The Debra Metrowest (formerly ARIUM Metrowest), Falls at Forsyth and Outlook at Greystone were issued under the Fannie Facility.

On May 27, 2020, the Company, through certain subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership, entered into a $13.9 million floating rate advance (the “Fannie Facility Advance”) originated under the Fannie Facility and collateralized by the properties issued under the Fannie Facility. The Fannie Facility Advance matures on June 1, 2027 and bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.60%, subject to an interest rate cap,with interest-only payments through June 2022 and then monthly payments based on thirty-year amortization. The Fannie Facility Advance may be prepaid without prepayment or yield maintenance beginning March 1, 2027.

On February 18, 2021, the Company, through certain subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership, entered into a $12.9 million floating rate advance originated under the Fannie Facility (the “Fannie Facility Second Advance”). Upon the sale of ARIUM Grandewood (refer to Note 3 for further information), 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. As such, the Company elected to substitute the ARIUM Grandewood collateral on the Fannie Facility with its Falls at Forsyth property. As the collateral value of Falls at Forsyth exceeded the collateral value of ARIUM Grandewood, the Company elected to receive this incremental difference in collateral value as an advance under the Fannie Facility. The Fannie Facility Second Advance matures on March 1, 2028 and bears interest at the 30-day average SOFR plus 2.70%, subject to an interest rate cap, with interest-only payments through March 2023 and then monthly payments based on thirty-year amortization. The Fannie Facility Second Advance may be prepaid without prepayment or yield maintenance beginning December 1, 2027.

The Company may request future fixed rate advances or floating rate advances under the Fannie Facility either by borrowing against the value of the mortgaged properties (based on the valuation methodology established in the Fannie Facility) or adding eligible properties to the collateral pool, subject to customary conditions, including satisfaction of minimum debt service coverage and maximum loan-to-value tests. The proceeds of any future advances made under the Fannie Facility may be used, among other things, for general operating purposes and the acquisition and refinancing of additional properties to be identified in the future.

Debt maturities

As of June 30, 2021, contractual principal payments for the five subsequent years and thereafter are as follows (amounts in thousands):

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 10 – 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:

●Level 1:  Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets

●Level 2:  Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable

●Level 3:  Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable

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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying values 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. The 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 June 30, 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 $1,483.1 million and $1,586.0 million, respectively, compared to the carrying amounts, before adjustments for deferred financing costs, net, of $1,446.8 million and $1,541.1 million, respectively. The fair value of mortgages payable is estimated based on the Company’s current interest rates (Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy) for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Note 11 – 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 June 30, 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 $280.4 million of the Company’s floating rate mortgage debt.

Administrative Services Agreement

In October 2017, the Company entered into an Administrative Services Agreement (the “Administrative Services Agreement”) with Bluerock Real Estate, LLC and its affiliate, Bluerock Real Estate Holdings, LLC (together “BRE”). Pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement, BRE provides the Company with certain human resources, investor relations, marketing, legal and other administrative services (the “Services”). The Services are provided on an at-cost basis, generally allocated based on the use of such Services for the benefit of the Company’s business, and are invoiced on a quarterly basis. In addition, the Administrative Services Agreement permits certain employees of the Company to provide or cause to be provided services to BRE, on an at-cost basis, generally allocated based on the use of such services for the benefit of the business of BRE, and otherwise subject to the terms of the Services provided by BRE to the Company under the Administrative Services Agreement. Payment by the Company of invoices and other amounts payable under the Administrative Services Agreement will be made in cash or, in the sole discretion of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), in the form of fully-vested LTIP Units. The term of the Administrative Services Agreement expires on October 31, 2021 unless the Company renews. The Administrative Services Agreement will automatically terminate (i) upon termination by the Company of all Services, or (ii) in the event of non-renewal by the Company.

Pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement, BRE is responsible for the payment of all employee benefits and any other direct and indirect compensation for the employees of BRE (or their affiliates or permitted subcontractors) assigned to perform the Services, as well as such employees’ worker’s compensation insurance, employment taxes, and other applicable employer liabilities relating to such employees.

The Company and BRE also entered into a Leasehold Cost-Sharing Agreement (the “Leasehold Cost-Sharing Agreement”) with respect to the lease for their New York headquarters (the “NY Lease”) to provide for the allocation and sharing between BRE and the Company of the costs thereunder, including costs associated with tenant improvements. The NY Lease permits the Company and certain of its respective subsidiaries and/or affiliates to share occupancy of the New York headquarters with BRE. Under the NY Lease, the Company, through its Operating Partnership, issued a $750,000 letter of credit as a security deposit, and BRE is obligated under the Leasehold Cost-Sharing Agreement to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from loss if there is a claim under such letter of credit. Payment by the Company of any amounts payable under the Leasehold Cost-Sharing Agreement to BRE will be made in cash or, in the sole discretion of the Board, in the form of fully-vested LTIP Units.

Recorded as part of general and administrative expenses, operating expenses paid by BRE on behalf of the Company of $0.7 million and $0.7 million, and $1.5 million and $1.4 million were expensed during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Operating expense reimbursements of $0.4 million for the first quarter 2021 were paid to BRE through the issuance of 41,031 LTIP Units on May 11, 2021.

Pursuant to the terms of the Administrative Services Agreement, the Company paid operating expenses on behalf of BRE of $0.6 million and $0.6 million, and $1.5 million and $1.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Operating expense reimbursements for the first quarter 2021 were paid to the Company in cash during the second quarter 2021.

Pursuant to the terms of the Administrative Services Agreement and the Leasehold Cost-Sharing Agreement, summarized below are the net related party amounts payable to BRE as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (amounts in thousands):

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had $0.7 million and $0.3 million, respectively, in receivables due from related parties other than BRE. Of the $0.7 million balance at June 30, 2021, $0.2 million represents accrued preferred returns on unconsolidated real estate investments. The remaining amount represents the Company’s preferred equity investment in Alexan Southside Place. On March 25, 2021, the property underlying the Company’s investment in Alexan Southside Place was sold, and in April 2021, the Company received $9.8 million of its $10.1 million preferred equity investment.

Selling Commissions and Dealer Manager Fees

In conjunction with its offering of the Series T Preferred Stock (the “Series T Preferred Offering”), the Company engaged a related party as dealer manager, and pays up to 10% of the gross offering proceeds from the offering as selling commissions and dealer manager fees. The dealer manager re-allows the substantial majority of the selling commissions and dealer manager fees to participating broker-dealers and incurs costs in excess of the 10%, which costs are borne by the dealer manager without reimbursement by the Company. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company has incurred $15.2 million and $7.0 million, respectively, in selling commissions and discounts and $6.5 million and $3.0 million, respectively, in dealer manager fees and discounts related to its Series T Preferred Offering. In addition, BRE was reimbursed for offering costs in conjunction with the Series T Preferred Offering of $0.6 million and $0.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The selling commissions, dealer manager fees, discounts and reimbursements for offering costs were recorded as a reduction to the proceeds of the offering.

Note 13 – Stockholders’ Equity and Redeemable Preferred Stock

Net (Loss) Income Per Common Share

Basic net (loss) income per common share is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders, less dividends on restricted stock and LTIP Units expected to vest, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net (loss) income per common share is computed by dividing net (loss) income 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 (loss) income attributable to common stockholders is computed by adjusting net (loss) income for the non-forfeitable dividends paid on restricted stock and non-vested 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 C common stock participate in dividends on a one-for-one basis.

The following table reconciles the components of basic and diluted net (loss) income per common share (amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2021		2020		2021		2020
Net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders	$	(5,429)	$	15,090	$	18,152	$	(1,403)

Weighted average common shares outstanding and potential dilutive shares (1)		28,129,862		24,345,034		25,688,530		24,197,479
Net (loss) income per common share, basic	$	(0.21)	$	0.61	$	0.68	$	(0.09)
Net (loss) income per common share, diluted	$	(0.21)	$	0.61	$	0.68	$	(0.09)

(1) Amounts relate to shares of the Company’s Class A and Class C common stock outstanding.

(2) For the three months ended June 30, 2021, potential vesting of restricted stock to employees for 53,988 shares of Class A common stock are excluded from the diluted shares calculation as the effect is antidilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the following are included in the diluted shares calculation: a) Warrants outstanding from issuances in conjunction with the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock offerings that are potentially exercisable for 11,932 shares of Class A common stock, and b) potential vesting of restricted stock to employees for 53,061 shares of Class A common stock.

For the three months ended June 30, 2020, potential vesting of restricted stock to employees for 37,887 shares of Class A common stock are included in the diluted shares calculation. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, potential vesting of restricted stock to employees for 53,330 shares of Class A common stock are excluded from the diluted shares calculation as the effect is antidilutive.

32

The effect of the conversion of OP Units is not reflected in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share, as they are exchangeable for Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such OP Units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these OP Units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share.

Series T Redeemable Preferred Stock Offering

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company issued 8,657,663 shares of Series T Preferred Stock under its continuous registered Series T Preferred Offering with net proceeds of approximately $194.8 million after commissions, dealer manager fees and discounts of approximately $21.6 million, along with 25,437 shares issued under the dividend reinvestment plan with total proceeds of $0.6 million. During the life of the Series T Preferred Offering, the Company has issued a total of 18,407,429 shares of Series T Preferred Stock for net proceeds of approximately $414.2 million after commissions, dealer manager fees and discounts.

In November 2019, the Company began initiating redemptions of Series B Preferred Stock, and during the six months ended June 30, 2021, redemptions initiated by the Company resulted in 150,758 shares of Series B Preferred Stock redeemed through the issuance of 14,592,550 shares of Class A common stock.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had 445,870 outstanding Warrants from its offering of Series B Preferred Stock. The Warrants are exercisable by the holder at an exercise price of 120% of the market price per share of Class A common stock on the date of issuance of such Warrant, with a minimum exercise price of $10.00 per share. The market price per share of our Class A common stock was determined using the volume weighted average price per share of our Class A common stock for the 20 trading days prior to the date of issuance of such Warrant, subject to the minimum exercise price of $10.00 per share (subject to adjustment). Each Warrant is exercisable by the holder to purchase 20 shares of Class A common stock. The Warrants are exercisable one year following the date of issuance and expire four years following the date of issuance. As of June 30, 2021, a total of 7,349 Warrants had been exercised into 70,912 shares of Class A common stock. The outstanding Warrants have exercise prices ranging from $10.00 to $15.89 per share.

At-the-Market Offerings

In September 2019, the Company and its Operating Partnership entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement with respect to the offering and sale of up to $100,000,000 in shares of Class A common stock in “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including without limitation sales made directly on or through the NYSE American, or on any other existing trading market for Class A common stock or through a market maker (the “Class A Common Stock ATM Offering”). The Company did not issue any shares through the Class A Common Stock ATM Offering during the first and second quarters 2021. During the life of the Class A Common Stock ATM Offering, the Company has issued a total of 621,110 shares at a weighted average price of $12.01 per share with net proceeds of $7.3 million.

Stock Repurchase Plans

In October 2020, the Board authorized new stock repurchase plans for the repurchase, from time to time, of up to an aggregate of $75 million in shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, 8.250% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”), 7.625% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Series C Preferred Stock”), and/or 7.125% Series D Cumulative Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Series D Preferred Stock”) to be conducted in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). On February 9, 2021, the 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 at the close of the NYSE American trading day on which the Company files its Form 10-Q with the SEC for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The extent to which the Company repurchases shares of its Class A common stock, Series C Preferred Stock, and/or Series D Preferred Stock under the repurchase plans, and the timing of any such repurchases, depends on a variety of factors including general business and market conditions and other corporate considerations. Stock 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 six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased 8,163,160 shares of Class A common stock for a total purchase price of approximately $85.8 million. Under the current repurchase plans, the total purchase price of shares repurchased by the Company is approximately $104.8 million, and as of June 30, 2021, the value of shares that may yet be repurchased under the repurchase plans is $45.2 million.

Subject to certain restrictions set forth in the Operating Partnership’s Partnership Agreement, OP Units are exchangeable for Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis, or, at the Company’s election, redeemable for cash.  LTIP Units may be convertible into OP Units under certain conditions and then may be settled in shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, or, at the Company’s election, cash.

Equity Incentive Plans

LTIP Unit Grants

As of June 30, 2021, there was $10.0 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested LTIP Units granted under the Incentive Plans. The remaining expense is expected to be recognized over a period of 2.0 years.

Restricted Stock Grants

In April 2019 and 2020, the Company provided restricted stock grants (“RSGs”) to employees under the Incentive Plans. Such RSGs will vest in three equal installments on each anniversary of the date of grant. The RSGs provided in 2019 and 2020 were comprised of an aggregate of 179,748 shares of Class A common stock with a total fair value of $1.4 million.

On April 1, 2021, the Company provided RSGs to employees under the Incentive Plans. Such RSGs will vest in three equal installments on each anniversary of the date of grant.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Bluerock Residential Growth REIT, Inc., and the notes thereto. As used herein, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Bluerock Residential Growth REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and, as required by context, Bluerock Residential Holdings, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, which we refer to as our “Operating Partnership,” and to their subsidiaries. We refer to Bluerock Real Estate, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, as “Bluerock”, and we refer to our former external manager, BRG Manager, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as our “former Manager.”  Both Bluerock and our former Manager are affiliated with the Company.

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.

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.

Additional factors that could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to:

● the factors included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including those set forth under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”;

● use of proceeds of the Company’s securities offerings;

● the competitive environment in which we operate;

● real estate risks, including fluctuations in real estate values and the general economic climate in local markets and competition for tenants in such markets;

● risks associated with geographic concentration of our investments;

● decreased rental rates or increasing vacancy rates;

● our ability to lease units in newly acquired or newly constructed apartment properties;

39

● potential defaults on or non-renewal of leases by tenants;

● creditworthiness of tenants;

● our ability to obtain financing for and complete acquisitions under contract at the contemplated terms, or at all;

● development and acquisition risks, including rising and unanticipated costs, delays in timing, abandonment of opportunities, and failure of such acquisitions and developments to perform in accordance with projections;

● the timing of acquisitions and dispositions;

● the performance of our network of leading regional apartment owner/operators with which we invest, including through controlling positions in joint ventures;

● potential natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes and floods;

● national, international, regional and local economic conditions;

● Board determination as to timing and payment of dividends, and our ability to pay future distributions at the dividend rates we have paid historically;

● the general level of interest rates;

● potential changes in the law or governmental regulations that affect us and interpretations of those laws and regulations, including changes in real estate and zoning or tax laws, and potential increases in real property tax rates;

● 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.

Any of the assumptions underlying forward-looking statements could be inaccurate. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements included in this report. All forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this report and the risk that actual results will differ materially from the expectations expressed in this report will increase with the passage of time. Except as otherwise required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements after the date of this report, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or any other reason. The forward-looking statements should be read in light of the risk factors set forth in Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 23, 2021, and subsequent filings by us with the SEC, or (“Risk Factors”).

Overview

We were incorporated as a Maryland corporation on July 25, 2008. Our objective is to maximize long-term stockholder value by acquiring and developing well-located institutional-quality apartment properties in knowledge economy growth markets across the United States. We seek to maximize returns through investments where we believe we can drive substantial growth in our core funds from operations and net asset value primarily through our Value-Add 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 June 30, 2021, we held sixty real estate investments, consisting of thirty-five consolidated operating properties and interests in twenty-five properties held through preferred equity, mezzanine loan or ground lease investments. Of the properties in which our interests are held through preferred equity, mezzanine loan or ground lease investments, eight are under development and seventeen are stabilized. The sixty investments contain an aggregate of 17,928 units, comprised of 11,532 consolidated multifamily operating units and 6,396 units through preferred equity, mezzanine loan or ground lease investments. Of the 6,396 units held through preferred equity, mezzanine loan or ground lease investments, 5,876 are multifamily units and 520 are single-family residential homes. As of June 30, 2021, our consolidated operating properties were approximately 96.2% 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.

COVID-19

We are closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business and apartment communities, including how it will impact our tenants and business partners. While we did not incur any significant impact on our performance during the three months ended June 30, 2021 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 cash flows due to the numerous uncertainties. These uncertainties include the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, 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.

41

As of June 30, 2021, we collected 98% of rents from our multifamily properties for the three months ended June 30, 2021. As of July 31, 2021, we collected 97% of July rents from our multifamily properties. In 2020, we had provided rent deferral payment plans as a result of hardships certain tenants experienced due to the impact of COVID-19; for the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company did not provide 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 on 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 96.2% and 96.5% as of June 30, 2021 and July 31, 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 the impact of COVID-19.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our rental revenue for the third quarter of 2021 and thereafter cannot be determined at present. 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 Company, 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 June 30, 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).

In response to shelter-in-place orders, our corporate offices have also transitioned to a remote work environment. There can be no assurances that the continuation of such remote work arrangements for an extended period of time will not strain our business continuity plans, introduce operational risk, including cybersecurity risks, or impair our ability to manage our business.

Other Significant Developments

Acquisitions of and Investments in Real Estate

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we acquired three operating properties representing an aggregate of 506 units.

Additionally, we entered into seven preferred equity investments, of which four were fully funded during the period. One of the preferred equity investments is in the operating partnership of Peak Housing REIT, an unaffiliated private REIT, representing a portfolio of 474 single-family residential homes in Texas. We also made an additional preferred equity investment in the Strategic Portfolio of $11.4 million, and we increased our preferred equity investment in Alexan CityCentre and The Conley by approximately $1.8 million in aggregate.

We increased our mezzanine loan investments in Avondale Hills, Domain at The One Forty, Motif, Reunion Apartments and Vickers Historic Roswell by approximately $18.9 million in aggregate.

We provided increased funding to the Zoey Ground Lease of approximately $8.3 million.

Held for Sale

We entered into two separate purchase and sale agreements for the sales of the following properties: Park & Kingston, located in Charlotte, North Carolina, and The District at Scottsdale, located in Scottsdale, Arizona. We have classified both properties as held for sale as of June 30, 2021.

On July 7, 2021, we closed on the sale of Park & Kingston located in Charlotte, North Carolina. The property was sold for $44.9 million, subject to certain prorations and adjustments typical in such real estate transactions. After deduction for the payoff of the existing mortgage indebtedness encumbering the property in the amount of $19.6 million, the payment of early extinguishment of debt costs of $2.4 million and payment of closing costs and fees of $0.5 million, the sale of the property generated net proceeds of approximately $24.7 million.

On July 7, 2021, we closed on the sale of The District at Scottsdale located in Scottsdale, Arizona. The property was sold for $150.5 million, subject to certain prorations and adjustments typical in such real estate transactions. After deduction for the payoff of the existing mortgage indebtedness encumbering the property in the amount of $73.8 million, the payment of early extinguishment of debt costs of $0.4 million and payment of closing costs and fees of $0.4 million, the sale of the property generated net proceeds of approximately $74.8 million, of which our pro rata share of the proceeds was approximately $69.5 million.

Series T Preferred Stock Continuous Offering

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we issued 8,657,663 shares of Series T Preferred Stock under a continuous registered offering with net proceeds of approximately $194.8 million after commissions, dealer manager fees and discounts of approximately $21.6 million.

44

Redemption of 8.250% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock

On February 26, 2021, we redeemed all 2,201,547 outstanding shares of our Series A Preferred Stock at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends up to, and including, the date of redemption in an amount equal to $0.320833 per share, for a total payment of $25.320833 per share, in cash.

Redemptions of Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we redeemed 152,851 shares of Series B Preferred Stock through the issuance of 14,780,952 shares of Class A common stock.

Our total stockholders’ equity increased $67.3 million from $58.4 million as of December 31, 2020 to $125.7 million as of June 30, 2021. The increase in our total stockholders’ equity is primarily attributable to the issuance of shares of Class A common stock for the redemptions of shares of Series B Preferred Stock of $152.8 million (of which, $150.7 million relates to Company-initiated redemptions) and net income of $61.4 million, offset by dividends declared of $37.7 million, the repurchase of shares of Class A common stock of $85.8 million and preferred stock accretion of $14.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2020

Revenue

Rental and other property revenues increased $2.0 million, or 4%, to $49.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $47.7 million for the same prior year period. This   was due to a $5.5 million increase from the acquisition of three properties in 2021 and the full period impact of four properties acquired in 2020, a $2.3 million increase from same store properties, and a $0.8 million increase from other non-same store properties, partially offset by a $6.6 million decrease driven by the sales of five properties in 2021 and the full period impact of four properties sold in 2020.

46

Interest income from mezzanine loan and ground lease investments decreased $1.2 million, or 23%, to $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $5.3 million for the same prior year period primarily due to the sales of two underlying properties in 2020 and the impact of the deferred interest income at Motif, partially offset by increases in the average balance of mezzanine loans outstanding.

Expenses

Property operating expenses increased $0.3 million, or 2%, to $18.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $18.6 million for the same prior year period. This was primarily due to a $2.2 million increase from the acquisition of properties in 2021 and 2020, a $0.9 million increase from same store properties, and a $0.1 million increase from other non-same store properties, partially offset by a $2.9 million decrease from sold properties. Property NOI margins increased to 62.0% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from 61.1% in the prior year period. Property NOI margins are computed as total rental and other property revenues less property operating expenses, divided by total rental and other property revenues.

Property management fees expense increased $0.06 million, or 4%, to $1.25 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $1.19 million in the same prior year period.  Property management fees incurred are based on property level revenues.

General and administrative expenses amounted to $6.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $5.3 million for the same prior year period.

Acquisition and pursuit costs amounted to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.  The 2020 expense primarily related to the write-off of pre-acquisition costs from abandoned deals due to the uncertainty from COVID-19.  Abandoned pursuit costs can vary greatly, and the costs incurred in any given period may be significantly different in future periods.  Acquisition and pursuit costs for the same current year period were insignificant.

Depreciation and amortization expenses were $19.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $20.1 million for the same prior year period. This was due to a $1.9 million decrease from sold properties, a $1.1 million decrease from other non-same store properties, and a $0.6 million decrease from same store properties, partially offset by a $3.4 million increase from the acquisition of properties in 2021 and 2020.

Other Income and Expense

Other income and expense amounted to income of $7.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to income of $32.9 million for the same prior year period. This was primarily due to a decrease in gains on sale of real estate investments of $38.4 million, partially offset by a decrease in loss on early extinguishment of debt of $13.3 million.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2020

Revenue

Rental and other property revenues increased $2.8 million, or 3%, to $100.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $98.0 million for the same prior year period. This was due to a $11.9 million increase from the acquisition of three properties in 2021 and the full period impact of six properties acquired in 2020, a $3.0 million increase from same store properties, and a $1.0 million increase from other non-same store properties, partially offset by a $13.1 million decrease driven by the sales of five properties in 2021 and the full period impact of four properties sold in 2020.

Interest income from related parties and ground leases decreased $2.4 million, or 21%, to $8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $11.2 million for the same prior year period primarily due to the sales of two underlying properties in 2020 and the impact of the deferred interest income at Motif, partially offset by increases in the average balance of mezzanine loans outstanding.

47

Expenses

Property operating expenses increased $0.9 million, or 3%, to $38.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $37.9 million for the same prior year period. This was primarily due to a $4.8 million increase from the acquisition of properties in 2021 and 2020, a $1.5 million increase from same store properties, and a $0.1 million increase from other non-same store properties, partially offset by a $5.5 million decrease from sold properties. Property NOI margins increased to 61.5% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from 61.4% in the prior year period. Property NOI margins are computed as total rental and other property revenues less property operating expenses, divided by total rental and other property revenues.

Property management fees expense increased $0.04 million, or 2%, to $2.53 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $2.49 million in the same prior year period.  Property management fees incurred are based on property level revenues.

General and administrative expenses amounted to $13.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $11.7 million for the same prior year period.

Acquisition and pursuit costs amounted to $0.01 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $1.69 million for the same prior year period. The 2020 expense primarily related to the write-off of pre-acquisition costs from abandoned deals due to the uncertainty from COVID-19, of which $1.1 million of the total costs related to one abandoned deal. Abandoned pursuit costs can vary greatly, and the costs incurred in any given period may be significantly different in future periods.

Weather-related losses, net amounted to $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.  The 2021 expense related to freeze damages at eight properties in Texas.  No weather-related losses were recorded in 2020.

Depreciation and amortization expenses were $40.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $41.0 million for the same prior year period. This was due to a $4.3 million decrease from sold properties, a $1.2 million decrease from other non-same store properties, and a $0.8 million decrease from same store properties, partially offset by a $5.6 million increase from the acquisition of properties in 2021 and 2020.

Other Income and Expense

Other income and expense amounted to income of $61.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to income of $20.6 million for the same prior year period. This was primarily due to an increase in gains on sale of real estate investments of $30.2 million and a decrease in loss on early extinguishment of debt of $10.3 million.

Property Operations

We define “same store” properties as those that we owned and operated for the entirety of both periods being compared, except for properties that are in the construction or lease-up phases, properties that are undergoing development or significant redevelopment, or properties held for sale. 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 90.0% physical occupancy.

For comparison of our three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the same store properties included properties owned at April 1, 2020. Our same store properties for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 consisted of 25 properties, representing 8,882 units.

For comparison of our six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the same store properties included properties owned at January 1, 2020. Our same store properties for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 consisted of 24 properties, representing 8,628 units.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2020

Same store NOI for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased 6.5%, or $1.5 million, compared to the 2020 period. Same store property revenues increased 6.4%, or $2.3 million, as compared to the 2020 period, primarily attributable to a 3.0% increase in average rental rates and an 80-basis point increase in occupancy; of our twenty-five same store properties, twenty-one recognized rental rate increases and eighteen recognized increases in occupancy during the period. In addition, bad debt decreased $0.7 million and ancillary income, such as termination fees, late fees, and pet fees, increased $0.4 million.

Same store expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased 6.3%, or $0.9 million, compared to the 2020 period. The increase was partially due to non-controllable expenses; real estate taxes increased $0.2 million due to municipality tax increases and insurance increased $0.2 million due to industrywide multifamily price increases. The remaining increase was due to (i) a $0.3 million increase in discretionary seasonal maintenance as discretionary spending was limited in prior year due to COVID-19 and (ii) an increase of $0.2 million in administrative expenses.

49

Non-same store property revenues and property expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 decreased $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, compared to the 2020 period due to the timing and volume of operating property transactions. We acquired seven operating properties and sold nine properties since April 1, 2020.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2020

Same store NOI for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 3.4%, or $1.5 million, compared to the 2020 period. Same store property revenues increased 4.2%, or $3.0 million, as compared to the 2020 period, primarily attributable to a 2.0% increase in average rental rates and a 110-basis point increase in occupancy; of our twenty-four same store properties, nineteen recognized rental rate increases and twenty-one recognized increases in occupancy during the period. In addition, ancillary income, such as termination fees, late fees, and pet fees, increased $0.6 million and bad debt decreased $0.36 million.

Same store expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 5.4%, or $1.5 million, compared to the 2020 period. The increase was primarily due to non-controllable expenses; real estate taxes increased $0.42 million due to municipality tax increases and insurance increased $0.35 million due to industrywide multifamily price increases. The remaining increase was due to (i) a $0.37 million increase in discretionary seasonal maintenance as discretionary spending was limited in prior year due to COVID-19 and (ii) an increase of $0.25 million in administrative expenses.

Non-same store property revenues and property expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively, compared to the 2020 period due to the timing and volume of operating property transactions. We acquired nine operating properties and sold nine properties since January 1, 2020.

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'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; 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.

50

However, NOI should only be used as a supplemental measure of our financial performance. The following table reflects net (loss) income 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):

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, both short- and long-term. Our primary short-term liquidity requirements historically have related to (a) our operating expenses and other general business needs, (b) distributions to our stockholders, (c) committed investments and capital requirements to fund development and renovations at existing properties, (d) ongoing commitments to repay borrowings, including our credit facilities and our maturing short-term debt, and (e) Class A common stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock repurchases under our stock repurchase program.

Our ability to access capital on favorable terms as well as to use cash from operations to continue to meet our short-term liquidity needs could be affected by various risks and uncertainties, including the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and other risks detailed in Part II, Item 1A titled “Risk Factors” and in the other reports we have filed with the SEC.

We believe we currently have a stable financial condition; as of June 30, 2021, we collected 98% of rents from our multifamily properties for the three months ended June 30, 2021. As of July 31, 2021, we collected 97% of July rents from our multifamily properties. In 2020, we had provided rent deferral payment plans as a result of hardships certain tenants experienced due to the impact of COVID-19; for the six months ended June 30, 2021, we did not provide 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 on 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 96.2% and 96.5% as of June 30, 2021 and July 31, 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 various properties as we gained more visibility on the economic recovery nationally and within our specific markets.

In general, we believe our available cash balances, the proceeds from our continuous Series T Preferred Offering, the Amended Senior and Second Amended Junior Credit Facilities, the Fannie 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 our continuous Series T Preferred Offering and from the  credit facilities will have a 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. 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 future 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 acquiring and further diversifying our portfolio of multifamily assets. We cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to add properties to our portfolio at the anticipated pace, or at all.

We believe we will be able to meet our primary liquidity requirements going forward through:

● $136.8 million in cash available at June 30, 2021;

● $107.7 million of capacity on our credit facilities as of June 30, 2021;

● cash generated from operating activities; and

● our continuous Series T Preferred Offering, proceeds from future borrowings and potential offerings, including potential offerings of common and preferred stock through underwritten offerings, as well as issuances of units of limited partnership interest in our Operating Partnership, or OP Units.

Only 5.5%, or $79.1 million, of our mortgage debt is maturing through the remainder of 2021, of which $73.8 million relates to The District at Scottsdale, a property which was sold on July 7, 2021.

52

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 six months ended June 30, 2021, we purchased 8,163,160 shares of Class A common stock for a total purchase price of approximately $85.8 million. Under the current repurchase plans, the total purchase price of shares repurchased by the Company is approximately $104.8 million, and as of June 30, 2021, the value of shares that may yet be repurchased under the repurchase plans is $45.2 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 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, (b) repayment of long-term debt and our credit facilities, (c) capital expenditures, (d) cash redemption requirements related to our Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series T Preferred 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 T Preferred Offering, our credit facilities, as well as future borrowings. 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, all of which may continue to be adversely impacted by COVID-19 pandemic.

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 June 30, 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. 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 to maintain our REIT qualification and Investment Company Act exemption.

We expect to maintain distributions paid to our Series B Preferred Stock, our Series C Preferred Stock, our Series D Preferred Stock and our Series T Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of those securities which require monthly or quarterly dividends depending

53

on the series. While our policy is generally to pay distributions from cash flow from operations, our distributions through June 30, 2021 have been paid from cash flow from operations, proceeds from our continuous preferred stock offerings, including our Series T Preferred Stock, sales of assets, proceeds from underwritten securities offerings, and may in the future be paid from additional sources, such as from borrowings.

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, in 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 income, FFO, CFFO and cash 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 equity interests in properties that are in various stages of 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 own a preferred equity interest is required to redeem our preferred equity interests, plus any accrued preferred return, based on a fixed maturity date, generally in relation to the property’s construction loan or mortgage loan maturity. Upon redemption of our preferred equity 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 equity 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 evaluate our capital position and 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 June 30, 2021, we have off-balance sheet arrangements that may have a material effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital resources or capital expenditures. As of June 30, 2021, we own interests in thirteen joint ventures that are accounted for as held to maturity debt securities or loans.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

As of June 30, 2021, we held sixty real estate investments, consisting of thirty-five consolidated operating properties and interests in twenty-five properties held through preferred equity, mezzanine loan or ground lease investments. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash provided by operating activities was $40.0 million after net income of $76.0 million was adjusted for the following:

● non-cash items of $45.4 million;

● an increase in accounts receivable, prepaids and other assets of $5.1 million;

● an increase in amortization of deferred interest income on mezzanine loan of $1.0 million; and

● an increase in notes and accrued interest receivable of $1.8 million, offset by:

● distributions and preferred returns from unconsolidated joint ventures of $5.9 million;

● an increase in loss on extinguishment of debt and debt modification costs of $3.7 million;

● an increase in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities of $7.6 million; and

● an increase in due to affiliates of $0.1 million.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash provided by investing activities was $118.7 million, primarily due to the following:

● $224.1 million of proceeds from the sale of real estate investments;

● $31.4 million of proceeds from the sale and redemption of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures; and

54

● $12.4 million of repayments on notes receivable, offset by:

● $77.0 million used in acquiring consolidated real estate investments;

● $62.1 million used for investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, notes receivable and a ground lease; and

● $10.1 million used on capital expenditures.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash used in financing activities was $104.6 million, primarily due to the following:

● $87.5 million of repayments of our mortgages payable;

● $85.8 million paid for the repurchase of Class A common stock;

● $63.0 million in repayments on revolving credit facilities;

● $55.1 million paid for the redemption of Series A Preferred Stock;

● $29.8 million paid in cash distributions to preferred stockholders;

● $14.5 million in distributions paid to our noncontrolling interests;

● $7.6 million paid in cash distributions to common stockholders;

● $1.1 million increase in deferred financing costs;

● $0.6 million of Class A common stock ATM issuance costs; and

● $0.1 million paid for the redemption of Series B Preferred Stock;

● partially offset by net proceeds of $193.6 million from issuance of units of Series T Preferred Stock;

● net proceeds of $30.0 million from borrowings on revolving credit facilities;

● net borrowings of $12.9 million on mortgages payable;

● contributions from noncontrolling interests of $4.1 million; and

● net proceeds of $0.2 million from the exercise of Warrants.

Capital Expenditures

The following table summarizes our total capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (amounts in thousands):

	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
	2021		2020
Redevelopment/renovations	$	7,258	$	5,481
Routine capital expenditures		1,901		1,506
Normally recurring capital expenditures		1,566		1,428
Total capital expenditures	$	10,725	$	8,415

Redevelopment and renovation costs are non-recurring capital expenditures for significant projects that are revenue enhancing through unit or common area upgrades, such as clubhouse renovations and kitchen remodels. Routine capital expenditures are necessary non-revenue generating improvements that extend the useful life of the property and that are less frequent in nature, such as roof repairs and asphalt resurfacing. Normally recurring capital expenditures are necessary non-revenue generating improvements that occur on a regular ongoing basis, such as carpet and appliances.

Funds from Operations and Core Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Stockholders and Unit Holders

We 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 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

55

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 NAREIT definition, as net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or 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.

CFFO makes certain adjustments to FFO, removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations such as acquisition expenses, non-cash interest expense, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, losses on extinguishment of debt and debt modification costs (includes prepayment penalties incurred and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs and fair market value adjustments of assumed debt), one-time weather-related costs, stock compensation expense and preferred stock accretion. Commencing in 2020, we do not deduct the accrued portion of the preferred income on our preferred equity investments from FFO to determine CFFO as the income is deemed fully collectible. The accrued portion of the preferred income totaled $1.5 million and $0.4 million, and $2.7 million and $0.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We believe that CFFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of 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 operating performance between periods and provides a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential.

Our calculation of CFFO differs from the methodology used for calculating CFFO by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our CFFO may not be comparable to CFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and CFFO 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 and CFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we also believe that FFO and CFFO may provide us and our stockholders with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs.

Neither FFO nor CFFO 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 CFFO 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 CFFO 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.

We have acquired seven operating properties, made eight property investments through preferred equity or mezzanine loan investments, sold six operating properties and received payoffs of our mezzanine loan or preferred equity in seven investments subsequent to June 30, 2020. We paid a quarterly common stock dividend of $0.1625 per share and unit, or a 102% payout on a CFFO basis, during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The results presented in the table below are not directly comparable and should not be considered an indication of our future operating performance.

56

The table below presents our calculation of FFO and CFFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Operating cash flow, FFO and CFFO may also be used to fund all or a portion of certain capitalizable items that are excluded from FFO and CFFO.

Presentation of this information is intended to assist the reader in comparing the sustainability of the operating performance of different REITs, although it should be noted that not all REITs calculate FFO or CFFO the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. FFO or CFFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders or as an indication of our liquidity, nor is either indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions. Both FFO and CFFO should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements.

(1) The dividend was paid on the date indicated to stockholders in conjunction with the redemption of shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

(2) Shares of newly issued Series T Preferred Stock that are held only a portion of the applicable monthly dividend period will receive a prorated dividend based on the actual number of days in the applicable dividend period during which each such share of Series T Preferred Stock was outstanding.

A portion of each dividend may constitute a return of capital for tax purposes. There is no assurance that we will continue to declare dividends or at this rate. Holders of OP Units and LTIP Units are entitled to receive “distribution equivalents” at the same time as dividends are paid to holders of our Class A common stock.

We have a dividend reinvestment plan that allows for participating stockholders to have their Class A common stock dividend distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of Class A common stock based on the average price of the Class A common stock on the investment date. We plan to issue shares of Class A common stock to cover shares required for investment.

We also have a dividend reinvestment plan that allows for participating stockholders to have their Series T Preferred Stock dividend distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of Series T Preferred Stock at a price of $25.00 per share. We plan to issue shares of Series T Preferred Stock to cover shares required for investment.

59

Our Board will determine the amount of dividends to be paid to our stockholders. The Board’s determination will be based on several 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 taxable income” each year. While our policy is generally to pay distributions from cash flow from operations, we may declare distributions in excess of funds from operations.

Distributions paid were funded from cash provided by operating activities except with respect to $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 which was funded from sales of real estate, borrowings, and/or proceeds from our equity offerings.

Significant Accounting Policies and Critical Accounting Estimates

Our significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and Note 2 “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

Subsequent Events

Other than the items disclosed in Note 15 “Subsequent Events” to our interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the period ended June 30, 2021, no material events have occurred that required recognition or disclosure in these financial statements. Refer to Note 15 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 our financial instruments were entered into for other than trading purposes.

60

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 ($1.3) million are excluded:

	2021			2022			2023			2024			2025			Thereafter			Total
Mortgage Notes Payable	$	79,082		$	13,449		$	126,051		$	201,447		$	331,380		$	686,472		$	1,437,881
Weighted Average Interest Rate		1.97	%		3.53	%		3.20	%		3.75	%		3.82	%		3.42	%		3.46	%

The fair value of mortgages payable is estimated at $1,483.1 million as of June 30, 2021.

The table above incorporates those exposures that exist as of June 30, 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 June 30, 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 June 30, 2021, a 100-basis point increase or decrease in interest rates on the portion of our debt bearing interest at floating rates would result in an increase in interest expense of approximately $886,000 or decrease in interest expense of approximately $63,000, respectively, for the quarter ended June 30, 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 Financial Officer, evaluated, as of June 30, 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 Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 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 Financial 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 quarter ended June 30, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

None.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

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, 2020 filed with the SEC on February 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  B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series T Preferred Stock (together the “Preferred Stock”) and by other transactions.

As of June 30, 2021, our total indebtedness was approximately $1.4 billion, and we may incur significant additional debt in the future. The Preferred Stock is subordinate to all 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 June 30, 2021, the number of preferred shares outstanding was as follows: 360,608 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, 2,295,845 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, 2,774,338 shares of Series D Preferred Stock and 18,353,252 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  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.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

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 June 30, 2021, we purchased 4,605,598 shares of Class A common stock for a total purchase price of approximately $45.1 million. We made no repurchases of any series of our preferred stock during the first and second quarters 2021.

The following table is a summary of our repurchase activity during the quarter ended June 30, 2021:

				Total Number of Shares	Maximum Dollar Value of
	Total Number of	Weighted Average		Purchased as Part of the	Shares that May Yet Be
Period	Shares Purchased (1)	Price Per Share		Publicly Announced Plans	Purchased Under the Plans
Class A Common Stock

Purchases may be made thereunder until the earliest to occur of certain specified events as set forth therein.

Item 5. Other Information

Renewal of the Administrative Services Agreement

As previously disclosed in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 6, 2017, on October 31, 2017, the Company entered into the Administrative Services Agreement with BRE, pursuant to which BRE provides the Company with certain human resources, investor relations, marketing, legal and other administrative services. The initial term of the Administrative Services Agreement was one year from the date of execution, subject to the Company’s right to renew for successive one-year terms upon sixty (60) days written notice prior to expiration. In August 2018, 2019 and 2020, the Company delivered written notice to BRE of the Company’s intention to renew the Administrative Services Agreement for additional one-year terms, to expire on October 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021, respectively.

On August 4, 2021, the Company delivered written notice to BRE of the Company’s intention to renew the Administrative Services Agreement for an additional one-year term, to expire on October 31, 2022.

Because this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is being filed within four business days from the date of the reportable event, we have elected to make the foregoing disclosure in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q instead of in a Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 1.01.
