2 LEGAL DISCLOSURES Forward-Looking Statements Various statements contained in this presentation, including those that express a belief, expectation or intention, as well as those that are not statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements may include projections and estimates concerning the timing and success of our strategies, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements are generally accompanied by words such as “estimate,” “project,” “predict,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “potential,” “plan,” “goal” or other words that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions about future events. These assumptions include, among others, our projections and expectations regarding: market trends in the single-family home rental industry and in the local markets where we operate, our ability to institutionalize a historically fragmented business model, our business strengths, our ideal tenant profile, the quality and location of our properties in attractive neighborhoods, the scale advantage of our national platform and the superiority of our operational infrastructure, the effectiveness of our investment philosophy and diversified acquisition strategy, our ability to grow our portfolio and to create a cash flow opportunity with attractive current yields and upside from increasing rents and cost efficiencies and our understanding of our competition and general economic, demographic and real estate conditions that may impact our business. While we consider these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Investors should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this presentation, May 23, 2017. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to conform to actual results or changes in our expectations, unless required by applicable law. For a further description of the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those expressed in these forward-looking statements, as well as risks relating to the business of the Company in general, see the “Risk Factors” disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2016 and the Company’s subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation includes certain financial measures that were not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) because we believe they help investors understand our performance. Any non-GAAP financial measures presented are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for financial measures required by U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies.

(1) SFR Peer metrics have been calculated using definitions as outlined in the Defined Terms and Non‐GAAP Reconciliations section of this document and are based on publicly available information for the largest comparable single‐family rental companies. The operating results of other single‐family rental companies may include differing lines of business, which could make these metrics not comparable across companies. Additionally, as other single‐family rental companies may not compute these metrics in the same manner, these metrics may not agree to similar metrics reported by them. Other factors may also impact investment returns.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA after CapEx and Leasing Costs EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and is used by us and others as a supplemental measure of performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure calculated by adjusting EBITDA for (1) acquisition fees and costs expensed incurred with recent business combinations and the acquisition of individual properties, (2) net gain or loss on sale / impairment of single- family properties and other, (3) noncash share-based compensation expense, (4) gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt, (5) gain or loss on conversion of convertible units and (6) noncash fair value adjustments associated with remeasuring our participating preferred shares derivative liability to fair value. Adjusted EBITDA after CapEx and Leasing Costs is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure calculated by adjusting Adjusted EBITDA for (1) maintenance capital expenditures and (2) leasing costs. We consider Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA after CapEx and Leasing Costs to be meaningful financial measures of operating performance because they exclude the impact of various income and expense items that are not indicative of operating performance. The following is a reconciliation of net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders, determined in accordance with GAAP, to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA after CapEx and Leasing Costs for the trailing five quarters (amounts in thousands):
