INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Preferred Apartment Communities, Inc.

Atlanta, Georgia

We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues and certain expenses of City Vista for the year ended December 31, 2015, and the related notes to the statement of revenues and certain expenses.

Management’s Responsibility for the Statement of Revenues and Certain Expenses

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the statement of revenues and certain expenses in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the statement of revenues and certain expenses that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the statement of revenues and certain expenses based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement of revenues and certain expenses is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the statement of revenues and certain expenses. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the statement of revenues and certain expenses, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the statement of revenues and certain expenses in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the statement of revenues and certain expenses.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the statement of revenues and certain expenses referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and certain expenses described in Note 2 of City Vista’s statement of revenues and certain expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to Note 2 to the statement of revenues and certain expenses, which describes that the accompanying statement of revenues and certain expenses was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations under Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (for inclusion in the Form 8-K of Preferred Apartment Communities, Inc.) and is not intended to be a complete presentation of City Vista’s revenues and expenses. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

NOTES TO THE STATEMENTS OF REVENUES AND CERTAIN EXPENSES

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2016 (UNAUDITED)

AND THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2015

1. DESCRIPTION OF REAL ESTATE PROPERTY ACQUIRED

Preferred Apartment Communities, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed as a Maryland corporation on September 18, 2009, and has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, effective with its tax year ended December 31, 2011. The Company was formed primarily to acquire and operate multifamily property in select targeted markets throughout the United States. The Company is a majority owner in Preferred Apartment Communities Operating Partnership, L.P., which in partial support of the development of a 272-unit multifamily community located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (“City Vista” or the “Property”), held a real estate investment loan of approximately $16.1 million to Oxford City Vista Development LLC (the "Developer"), of which the Company converted $12.5 million on July 1, 2016 to an approximate 96% equity interest in a joint venture which controls the property. The remaining balance of the loan was repaid at the closing by the developer. The accompanying Statements of Revenues and Certain Expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015 of City Vista represent revenues and results of operations for the periods preceding the acquisition of the equity interest. Prior to July 1, 2016, the Seller was responsible for the accounting and management decisions of City Vista.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Statements of Revenues and Certain Expenses have been prepared for the purpose of complying with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and accordingly, are not representative of the actual results of operations of the Property, due to the exclusion of the following which may not be comparable to the proposed future operations of City Vista:


•	Depreciation expense


•	Interest expense, including amortization of mortgage loan origination costs, and


•	Other miscellaneous expenses not directly related to the proposed future operations of the Property.

Except as noted above, management is not aware of any material factors relating to the Property that would cause the reported financial information not to be indicative of future operating results. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the Statements of Revenues and Certain Expenses have been included.

The Statement of Revenues and Certain Expenses and notes thereto for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 included in this report are unaudited. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

B. Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Statements of Revenues and Certain Expenses in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and certain expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

C. Revenue Recognition

The Property is leased under operating leases with terms generally of one year or less. Rental revenue for residential leases, which include periods of free rent and/or scheduled increases in rental rates over the term of the lease, are recognized on a straight‑line basis.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

D. Operating Expenses

Operating expenses represent the direct expenses of operating the Property and consist primarily of salaries and employee benefits, repairs and maintenance, utilities, property management fees, real estate taxes, property insurance and other miscellaneous operating expenses that are expected to continue in the proposed future operations of the Property.

E. Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed when incurred. Advertising costs for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015 totaled $72,046 (unaudited) and $245,014 respectively and are included in general and administrative expenses.

F. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated events through February 7, 2017, the date the Statements of Revenues and Certain Expenses were available to be issued and concluded that no subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in the Statement of Revenues and Certain Expenses or disclosure in the Notes to the Statements of Revenues and Certain Expenses.

3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. There is no material litigation nor to management's knowledge is any material litigation currently threatened against the Property other than routine litigation, claims and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business.

4. MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

During the period prior to the acquisition of City Vista by the Company, a property management fee was charged based on the greater of a fixed minimum monthly dollar amount of 3% of gross rental income. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015, property management fees of $63,969 (unaudited) and $89,150, respectively, were charged to operations.

5. CONCENTRATION OF RISK

City Vista is located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The Company’s concentration of assets in this city is subject not only to the risks of real property ownership but also local and national economic growth trends.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations of the Company are presented for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015 (the "Pro Forma Periods"), and illustrate the estimated effects of the acquisition of City Vista as if it had occurred on January 1, 2015.

The acquisition of City Vista occurred on July 1, 2016 and is reflected in the Company's actual historical balance sheet as of September 30, 2016. An Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2016 is therefore not presented.

Preferred Apartment Communities, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation

Preferred Apartment Communities, Inc. was formed as a Maryland corporation on September 18, 2009, and elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, effective with its tax year ended December 31, 2011. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to the "Company", "we", "us", or "our" refer to Preferred Apartment Communities, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including Preferred Apartment Communities Operating Partnership, L.P., or the Operating Partnership. The Company was formed primarily to acquire and operate multifamily properties in select targeted markets throughout the United States. As part of its business strategy, the Company may enter into forward purchase contracts or purchase options for to-be-built multifamily communities and may make real estate loans, provide deposit arrangements, or provide performance assurances, as may be necessary or appropriate, in connection with the development of multifamily communities and other properties. As a secondary strategy, the Company may acquire or originate senior mortgage loans, subordinate loans or real estate loans secured by interests in multifamily properties, membership or partnership interests in multifamily properties and other multifamily related assets and invest a lesser portion of its assets in other real estate related investments, including other income producing property types, senior mortgage loans, subordinate loans or real estate loans secured by interests in other income-producing property types, membership or partnership interests in other income-producing property types as determined by its Manager (as defined below) as appropriate for the Company. The Company is externally managed and advised by Preferred Apartment Advisors, LLC, or its Manager, a Delaware limited liability company and a related party.

On July 1, 2016, the Company converted $12.5 million of the outstanding principal balance of its real estate loan investment into an approximate 96% equity ownership interest in a joint venture (the "Transaction") that owns a 272-unit apartment community in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania ("City Vista").

The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 includes four columns. The first column labeled "PAC REIT Historical" represents the actual results of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016. The second column, entitled "Acquired City Vista" represents the historical revenues and operating expenses of the assets underlying City Vista for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016. The third column, entitled "Other Pro Forma Adjustments" represents the pro forma adjustments required to reflect the acquisition of City Vista as described in note 2. The fourth column, entitled "PAC REIT pro forma" presents the combined pro forma results of operations of the Company for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2015 also includes four columns and follows the same approach described above.

The results presented on the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations assume these acquisitions closed on January 1, 2015 and present pro forma operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015. These Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations should not be considered indicative of future results. The acquisition of City Vista occurred on July 1, 2016 and is reflected in the Company's actual historical balance sheet as of September 30, 2016. An Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2016 is therefore not presented.

2. Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations

The adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 are as follows:

(AA) The Company partially supported the development and construction of City Vista via a real estate loan in the amount of approximately $16.1 million to the developer of the property. The loan required monthly payments of current interest of 8% per annum and accrued an additional deferred amount of interest of 6% per annum. The consideration for the 96% equity ownership interest in the controlling joint venture was the extinguishment of $12.5 million of the loan; the remainder was repaid at the closing by the developer. Since the pro forma acquisition was assumed to have occurred on January 1, 2015, a pro forma adjustment is necessary to remove current and deferred interest on the loan recorded by the Company for the six-month period ended

F-9

Preferred Apartment Communities, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2016.

(BB) Effective with the purchase of City Vista by the Company, the property management functions were assumed by Preferred Residential Management, an affiliate of the Company and the property management fee was calculated as 4% of monthly gross rental income, as stipulated in the Sixth Amended and Restated Management Agreement (the "Management Agreement"). The pro forma adjustment reflects this additional cost burden on City Vista's operations.

(CC) Reflected in the pro forma adjustment is the Company's estimate of the depreciation charges that would have been incurred by City Vista. The adjustments utilize a straight-line depreciation method using 49 year remaining useful lives for buildings, nine years for site improvements and five to ten years for acquired furniture, fixtures and equipment.

(DD) The Company had recorded due diligence costs related to City Vista during the six months ended June 30, 2016 of $481. These costs are removed for pro forma purposes.

(EE) The estimated asset management fee is based on 0.5% of the total value of the Company's assets based on their adjusted cost before reduction for depreciation, amortization, impairment charges and cumulative acquisition costs charged to expense in accordance with GAAP (adjusted cost will include the purchase price, acquisition expenses, capital expenditures and other customarily capitalized costs). In calculating the estimated asset management fee, the Company used the total acquired assets from City Vista, as adjusted, plus the pro forma loan coordination fees incurred. In addition, a similar adjustment is included for general and administrative expense fees, recorded as 2% of gross revenues of City Vista for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016.

(FF) Reflected in the pro forma adjustment is the Company's estimate of interest expense on $36.0 million of mortgage debt, the amortization of associated debt issuance costs and pro forma loan coordination fees. The mortgage matures on July 1, 2026 and accrues interest at a fixed rate of 3.68% per annum.

(GG) Outstanding Class A Units of the Operating Partnership become entitled to pro-rata distributions of profit and allocations of loss as non-controlling interests of the Operating Partnership. The weighted-average percentage of ownership by the non-controlling interests was approximately 3.14% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016. This adjustment reflects the pro-rata adjustment to the amount of net income (loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests.

The adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2015 are as follows:

(AA) Since the pro forma acquisition was assumed to have occurred on January 1, 2015, a pro forma adjustment is necessary to remove current and deferred interest on the loan recorded by the Company for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2015.

(CC) Reflected in the pro forma adjustment is the Company's estimate of the depreciation and amortization charges that would have been incurred by City Vista. The adjustments for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2015 utilize a straight-line depreciation method using 49 year remaining useful lives for buildings, nine years for site improvements and five to ten years for acquired furniture, fixtures and equipment. Also included is the amortization of the estimated fair value of the acquired intangible leases in place for City Vista, which are assumed to have amortized in full during the pro forma 2015 period.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements

(DD) The estimated asset management fee is based on 0.5% of the total value of the Company's assets based on their adjusted cost before reduction for depreciation, amortization, impairment charges and cumulative acquisition costs charged to expense in accordance with GAAP (adjusted cost will include the purchase price, acquisition expenses, capital expenditures and other customarily capitalized costs). In calculating the estimated asset management fee, the Company used the total acquired assets from City Vista, as adjusted, plus the pro forma loan coordination fees incurred. In addition, a similar adjustment is included for general and administrative expense fees, recorded as 2% of gross revenues of City Vista for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2015.

(EE) Reflected in the pro forma adjustment is the Company's estimate of interest expense for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2015 on $36.0 million of mortgage debt, the amortization of associated debt issuance costs and pro forma loan coordination fees.

(FF) Outstanding Class A Units of the Operating Partnership become entitled to pro-rata distributions of profit and allocations of loss as non-controlling interests of the Operating Partnership. The weighted-average percentage of ownership by the non-controlling interests was approximately 1.24% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015. This adjustment reflects the pro-rata adjustment to the amount of net income (loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests.
