Semi-Annual Report For the Six-Months Ended June 30, 2018 |
TABLE OF CONTENTS
BLACKSTONE REAL ESTATE INCOME FUND
Dear BREIF Shareholder,
We are pleased to present this semi-annual shareholder report for Blackstone Real Estate Income Fund (“Feeder Fund I”) and Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary (the “Consolidated Master Fund”). Feeder Fund I, Blackstone Real Estate Income Fund II (“Feeder Fund II”) and the Consolidated Master Fund are collectively referred to as the “Funds” or “BREIF.” This report includes market commentary, performance commentary for the Funds, a listing of the Consolidated Master Fund’s investments and the unaudited financial statements for Feeder Fund I and the Consolidated Master Fund.
Market Commentary
The commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) market outperformed relative to the high-yield market during the first half of 2018 (the “Period”).1 Mezzanine bonds rated BBB- or below were the largest beneficiary of spread tightening as demand for high-yielding cash securities remained robust relative to muted supply. Conversely, senior investment-grade bonds came under pressure due in large part to rising treasury yields and concern over fund flows. The CMBS credit curve, as referenced by the basis between new issue conduit AAA and BBB- cash bond spreads, flattened by 59bps in the Period. Private label CMBS issuance decreased 17% in the Period to $40.5 billion and Conduit CMBS issuance decreased 28% in the Period to $27.0 billion.2 In general, credit fundamentals remain very strong as commercial real estate prices continue to rise in late cycle conditions. However, pockets of underperformance persist in specific asset types and metropolitan statistical areas, particularly retail and suburban office assets in tertiary markets. As a result, we remain highly selective and continue to tactically add risk in markets and subsectors with strong credit fundamentals. Additionally, we expect to continue opportunistic sales of mezzanine and subordinate positions as credit curves continue to flatten.
United States equity and credit markets were driven by political and trade uncertainty as economic data remained strong. The Fed continued its tightening cycle, ultimately leading the 10-year treasury yield to hit its highest level in seven years.3 Indications of a rising inflation environment started to appear as crude oil hit a four-year high and core inflation ticked up to 2.9%. Trade tensions escalated quickly, threatening market confidence with pockets of volatility. We remain patient in our viewpoint, searching for opportunities to buy at compelling levels with a long term investment focus in mind. Overall, the U.S. economy continued its positive momentum and interest rates remained consistent with recent levels, but we continue to focus on the potential for further trade tensions, heightened inflation expectations, and upcoming U.S. elections as potential catalysts for volatility.

Performance Drivers
BREIF’s investments in fixed rate, post-crisis conduit bonds provided the highest positive return during the Period, as CMBS spreads rallied due to robust demand from market participants. Additionally, BREIF’s investments in single-asset/single-borrower floating-rate securities provided strong returns as purchases in this sector rallied due to the attractiveness of owning floating rate securities in a rising interest rate environment. Overall, BREIF outperformed its Peer Group over the Period with strong credit selection, low exposure to retail properties and an interest rate hedged portfolio.
Portfolio Positioning
In spite of the strong market performance in 2018 driving spreads tighter, we continue to find interesting investment opportunities in the real estate debt market. The Funds increased exposure to later-vintage CMBX indices, which tightened significantly and outperformed most broad-based fixed income markets.7 While CMBX indices have performed well this year, we believe the relative value opportunity remains compelling as the index is still significantly cheaper than the underlying cash bond constituents and comparably rated corporate credit. The Funds also capitalized on the recent rally by selling longer duration bonds with less attractive credit profiles that benefitted from flattening credit curves. We believe the risk adjusted returns for residential credit securities are compelling; global residential housing fundamentals remain positive due to depressed new construction levels and robust household formation, which, coupled together, is leading to a favorable supply/demand technical. Overall, we remain primarily focused on securities with strong fundamental collateral characteristics. We have maintained a core portfolio of high-quality, short duration assets (3.7 years) backed by institutional-quality real estate, and will continue to focus the bulk of our opportunistic investing in sectors with attractive relative value propositions.

5 | Inception date of April 1, 2014. For inception-to-date total return calculations, the Peer Group excludes funds that were launched post BREIF inception. |
6 | Total return is calculated assuming a purchase of common shares at the opening on the first day and a repurchase at closing on the last day of each period reported. Dividends and distributions are assumed for purposes of this calculation to be reinvested at prices obtained under the Funds’ dividend reinvestment plan. Total returns do not reflect brokerage commissions or early repurchase reductions, if any. |

Blackstone Real Estate Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
1. Organization
Blackstone Real Estate Income Fund (the “Feeder Fund I”), a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), is a continuously offered non-diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Feeder Fund I commenced investment operations on April 1, 2014. The Feeder Fund I’s investment objective is to seek long-term total return, with an emphasis on current income, by primarily investing in a broad range of real estate-related debt investments. The Feeder Fund I pursues its investment objective by investing substantially all of its assets in Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund (the “Master Fund”), a Delaware statutory trust registered under the 1940 Act as a closed-end management investment company with the same investment objective and substantially the same investment policies as the Feeder Fund I. The Master Fund consolidates a wholly-owned subsidiary, Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund (Cayman) Ltd. (the “Subsidiary” and together with the Master Fund, the “Consolidated Master Fund”).
The investment manager of the Consolidated Master Fund and the Feeder Fund I is Blackstone Real Estate Income Advisors L.L.C. (the “Investment Manager”), an investment advisor registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Board of Trustees (the “Board” and each member thereof, a “Trustee”) of the Consolidated Master Fund and the Feeder Fund I supervises the conduct of the Consolidated Master Fund’s and the Feeder Fund I’s affairs and, pursuant to their investment management agreements, has engaged the Investment Manager to manage the Consolidated Master Fund’s and the Feeder Fund I’s day-to-day investment activities and operations.
The Consolidated Master Fund’s financial statements, which are attached hereto, are an integral part of these financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Feeder Fund I’s financial statements. At June 30, 2018, Feeder Fund I held an approximately 65% ownership interest in the Consolidated Master Fund.
Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein, shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Prospectus of the Feeder Fund I.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The Feeder Fund I is an investment company in accordance with Accounting Standards Codifications 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies (“ASC 946”), which defines investment companies and prescribes specialized accounting and reporting requirements for investment companies.
The Feeder Fund I’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are stated in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Investment Manager to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The Investment Manager believes that the estimates utilized in preparing the financial statements are reasonable and prudent; however, actual results may differ from these estimates.
Investment in Consolidated Master Fund and Fair Value Measurement
The Feeder Fund I’s investment in the Consolidated Master Fund is recorded at fair value and is based upon the Feeder Fund I’s percentage ownership of the net assets of the Consolidated Master Fund. The
7
Blackstone Real Estate Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
performance of the Feeder Fund I is directly affected by the performance of the Consolidated Master Fund. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Master Fund’s Financial Statements for the determination of fair value of the Consolidated Master Fund’s investments.
Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income and Expense
Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. The Feeder Fund I’s net investment income or loss consists of the Feeder Fund I’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Consolidated Master Fund, less all expenses of the Feeder Fund I. Realized and unrealized gains and losses from sale of investments consist of the Feeder Fund I’s pro-rata share of the Consolidated Master Fund’s realized and unrealized gains and losses.
Cash
As of June 30, 2018, the Feeder Fund I held $1,908,254 at a major U.S. bank.
Contingencies
Under the Feeder Fund I’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the “Declaration of Trust”), the Feeder Fund I’s officers and each Trustee are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties to the Feeder Fund I. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Feeder Fund I may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and indemnification obligations and expects the risk of loss to be remote.
Income Taxes
The Feeder Fund I’s policy is to comply with the provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its investment company net taxable investment income and net capital gain realized on investments to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. The Feeder Fund I plans to file U.S. Federal and various state and local tax returns.
For the open tax years and all major jurisdictions, management of the Feeder Fund I has concluded that there are no uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the consolidated financial statements. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limitations on the Feeder Fund I’s filed U.S. federal tax returns remains open for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 through December 31, 2017.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders
Dividends from net investment income are expected to be declared and paid quarterly. Distributions from capital gains are expected to be declared and paid at least annually. Dividends and capital gain distributions paid by the Feeder Fund I will be reinvested in additional common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.001 per share, of the Feeder Fund I (“Shares”), unless a shareholder elects not to reinvest in Shares or is otherwise ineligible. Shares purchased by reinvestment are issued at their net asset value on the next valuation date following the ex-dividend date.

3. Fund Terms
Issuance of Shares
The Feeder Fund I offers its Shares on a best efforts basis pursuant to a continuous offering registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Feeder Fund I will issue Shares to eligible investors as of the first business day of the month or at such other times as determined by the Board upon receipt and acceptance of an initial or additional application for Shares. The Feeder Fund I reserves the right to reject any applications for subscriptions of Shares. Shares are subject to a maximum sales load of up to 3.00%. No public market exists for the Shares, and none is expected to develop. The Shares are subject to restrictions on transferability and resale and may not be transferred or resold except as permitted under the Feeder Fund I’s Declaration of Trust.
Repurchase of Shares
The Feeder Fund I may, from time to time, offer to repurchase a portion of its outstanding Shares pursuant to written tenders by shareholders. Repurchases will be made only at such times and on such terms as may be determined by the Board, in its complete and exclusive discretion. Shareholders who tender Shares within the 12- month period following acquisition will be subject to an early withdrawal fee of 2.00% of the aggregate net asset value of the Shares repurchased by the Feeder Fund I. In determining whether the Feeder Fund I should repurchase Shares from shareholders pursuant to written tenders, the Feeder Fund I’s Board will consider the Investment Manager’s recommendations. The Investment Manager expects that generally it will recommend to the Feeder Fund I’s Board that the Feeder Fund I offer to repurchase Shares from shareholders on a quarterly basis. Since the Feeder Fund I’s assets consist primarily of its investment in the Consolidated Master Fund, the ability of the Feeder Fund I to have its Shares in the Consolidated Master Fund repurchased is subject to the Consolidated Master Fund’s repurchase policy.
The timing, terms and conditions of any particular repurchase offer may vary at the sole discretion of the Board. Repurchase offers will generally commence approximately 95 days prior to the last day of March, June, September and December each year (each such last date is referred to as a “Tender Valuation Date”) and remain open for approximately 30 calendar days.
The following table presents the repurchase offers that occurred during the period ended June 30, 2018:
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | Repurchase Offer #1 | | Repurchase Offer #2 |
Commencement Date | | December 22, 2017 | | April 5, 2018 |
Repurchase Request Deadline | | January 25, 2018 | | May 3, 2018 |
Repurchase Pricing Date | | March 29, 2018 | | June 29, 2018 |
Amount Repurchased | | $16,530,963 | | $23,501,944 |
Shares Repurchased | | 16,421 | | 23,029 |
4. Investment Manager Fees and Other Related Party Transactions
Management Fee
The Consolidated Master Fund pays the Investment Manager an aggregate fixed management fee (the “Management Fee”), payable quarterly in arrears on the last business day of each quarter. The Management Fee accrues monthly at an annual rate of 1.50% of the Consolidated Master Fund’s Managed Assets at the end of such month before giving effect to the Management Fee payment being calculated or any purchases or repurchases of Consolidated Master Fund shares or any distributions by the Consolidated Master Fund. The Management Fee will reduce the net asset value of the Consolidated Master Fund (and indirectly, of the
9
Blackstone Real Estate Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
Feeder Fund I) as of the end of the accounting period in which it is payable and after the calculation of the Management Fee. The Management Fee for any period less than a full quarter will be prorated. Effective October 1, 2014 through December 31, 2018, the Investment Manager agreed to temporarily reduce its Management Fee to an annualized rate of 0.75% of the Consolidated Master Fund’s Managed Assets (“the Management Fee Waiver”). The Investment Manager may, in its sole discretion and at any time (including prior to December 31, 2018), elect to extend, terminate or modify its voluntary waiver. The Investment Manager will not charge the Feeder Fund I a Management Fee as long as substantially all of the assets of the Feeder Fund I are invested in the Consolidated Master Fund. The Feeder Fund I indirectly bears a pro-rata share of the Consolidated Master Fund’s Management Fee, which was $3,200,188, net of the Management Fee Waiver, for the period ended June 30, 2018.
Incentive Fee
The Consolidated Master Fund accrues a performance-based incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”) on a monthly basis throughout the fiscal year of the Consolidated Master Fund. The Incentive Fee is paid to the Investment Manager promptly after the end of each fiscal year of the Consolidated Master Fund. The Incentive Fee is determined as of the end of the fiscal year in an amount equal to 15% of the amount by which the Consolidated Master Fund’s Net Capital Appreciation (as defined below) for each Fiscal Period ending within or coterminous with the close of such fiscal year exceeds the balance of the loss carryforward account and any allocated Management Fee expense for such Fiscal Period, without duplication for any Incentive Fees paid during such fiscal year. The Consolidated Master Fund also pays the Investment Manager the Incentive Fee in the event a Fiscal Period is triggered in connection with a repurchase offer by the Consolidated Master Fund. For purposes of calculating the Incentive Fee, “Net Capital Appreciation” means, with respect to any Fiscal Period, the difference, if any, between (x) the sum of (i) the value of the Consolidated Master Fund’s net asset value at the end of that Fiscal Period (prior to the Incentive Fee for such Fiscal Period) increased by the dollar amount of the Consolidated Master Fund’s interests repurchased during the Fiscal Period (excluding repurchases as of the last day of the Fiscal Period after determination of the Incentive Fee), (ii) the amount of any dividends, distributions or withdrawals paid to shareholders during the Fiscal Period and not reinvested in the Consolidated Master Fund (excluding any dividends, distributions or withdrawals to be paid as of the last day of the Fiscal Period), and (iii) the Management Fee expense for that Fiscal Period, and (y) the sum of (i) the value of the Consolidated Master Fund’s net asset value at the beginning of that Fiscal Period (prior to the Management Fee for such Fiscal Period), increased by the dollar amount of the Consolidated Master Fund’s interests issued during the Fiscal Period (excluding any Shares issued in connection with the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions paid by the Consolidated Master Fund) and (ii) the amount of any subscriptions to the Consolidated Master Fund during that Fiscal Period. All calculations of Net Capital Appreciation will be made (without duplication) after deduction of all general, administrative and other operating expenses of the Consolidated Master Fund (excluding the Incentive Fee) and any amounts necessary, in the Investment Manager’s sole discretion, as appropriate reserves for such expenses. The Investment Manager will not charge the Feeder Fund I an Incentive Fee as long as substantially all of the assets of the Feeder Fund I are invested in the Consolidated Master Fund. The Feeder Fund I indirectly bears a pro-rata share of the Consolidated Master Fund’s Incentive Fee, which was $4,878,752 for the period ended June 30, 2018.
Expense Limitation and Reimbursement
The Investment Manager has voluntarily entered into an Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement (the “Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement”) with the Feeder Fund I to limit the amount of the Feeder Fund I’s Specified Expenses (as defined below) to no more than 0.35% per annum of the Feeder Fund I’s net assets (the “Expense Cap”) (computed and applied on a monthly basis). Specified Expenses includes all expenses incurred in the business of the Feeder Fund I and the Feeder Fund I’s pro-rata share of the
10
Blackstone Real Estate Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
expenses incurred in the business of the Consolidated Master Fund, including organizational costs, with the exception of: (i) the Management Fee, (ii) the Incentive Fee, (iii) the Distribution and Service Fee, (iv) brokerage costs, (v) dividend/interest payments (including any dividend payments, interest expenses, commitment fees, or other expenses related to any leverage incurred by the Feeder Fund I or the Consolidated Master Fund), (vi) taxes, and (vii) extraordinary expenses (as determined in the sole discretion of the Investment Manager). To the extent that Specified Expenses for the Feeder Fund I (including the Feeder Fund I’s pro-rata share of the Consolidated Master Fund’s Specified Expenses) for any month exceed the Expense Cap, the Investment Manager will waive its fees and/or reimburse the Feeder Fund I for expenses to the extent necessary to eliminate such excess. The Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement cannot be terminated prior to December 31, 2018 without the Board’s consent. The Feeder Fund I has agreed to repay the amounts borne by the Investment Manager under the Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement within the three year period after the Investment Manager bears the expense, when and if requested by the Investment Manager, but only if and to the extent that the Specified Expenses of the Feeder Fund I (including the Feeder Fund I’s pro-rata share of the Consolidated Master Fund’s Specified Expenses) are less than the lower of the Expense Cap and any expense limitation agreement then in effect with respect to the Specified Expenses. The Investment Manager may recapture a Specified Expense in any year within the three-year period after the Investment Manager bears the expense. The Investment Manager is permitted to receive such repayment from the Feeder Fund I provided that the reimbursement amount does not raise the level of Specified Expenses of the Feeder Fund I (including the Feeder Fund I’s pro-rata share of the Consolidated Master Fund’s Specified Expenses) in the month the repayment is being made to a level that exceeds the Expense Cap or any other expense limitation agreement then in effect with respect to the Specified Expenses.
For the period ended June 30, 2018, the recoupments made by the Feeder Fund I to the Investment Manager were $225,143. As of June 30, 2018, the total repayments that may potentially be made by the Feeder Fund I to the Investment Manager is $861,834, of which $219,254 will expire by December 31, 2019, $407,279 will expire by December 31, 2020, and $235,501 will expire by December 31, 2021.
Distribution Agreement and Service Plan
Blackstone Advisory Partners L.P., an affiliate of the Investment Manager, acts as the distributor of the Shares (the “Distributor”). Pursuant to a distribution agreement between the Feeder Fund I and the Distributor, the Feeder Fund I pays the Distributor a fee (the “Distribution and Service Fee”) equal to 0.75% (annualized) of the average net assets of the Feeder Fund I, in accordance with the Feeder Fund I’s Distribution and Service Plan. The Distribution and Service Fee consists of 0.50% for the sale and marketing of the Shares and 0.25% for personal services provided to shareholders and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts and to reimburse the Distributor for related expenses incurred. The Distributor may pay all or a portion of the Distribution and Service Fee to the selling agents that sell Shares. The Feeder Fund I’s Distribution and Service Fees were $1,498,732 and $749,366, respectively, for the period ended June 30, 2018.
5. Administration Agreements
The Consolidated Master Fund and the Feeder Fund I have entered into administration, custody and transfer agency agreements (the “Administration Agreements”) with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”). State Street and/or its affiliates are responsible for providing administration, custody and transfer agency services for the Consolidated Master Fund and the Feeder Fund I, including, but not limited to: (i) maintaining corporate and financial books and records of the Consolidated Master Fund and the Feeder Fund I, (ii) providing administration services and (iii) performing other accounting and clerical services
11
Blackstone Real Estate Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
necessary in connection with the administration of the Consolidated Master Fund and the Feeder Fund I. The services performed by State Street may be completed by one or more of its affiliated companies.
6. Financial Instruments and Off-Balance Sheet Risk
Market Risk: In the normal course of business, the Consolidated Master Fund invests in securities and enters into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit and counterparty risk). The value of securities held by the Consolidated Master Fund may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the companies whose securities are owned by the Consolidated Master Fund; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations.
Derivatives Risks: The Consolidated Master Fund enters into derivatives transactions which may include, without limitation, options contracts, futures contracts, options on futures contracts, forward contracts, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, credit default swaps and other swap agreements for investment, hedging or leverage purposes. The Consolidated Master Fund’s use of derivative instruments may be particularly speculative and involves investment risks and transaction costs to which the Consolidated Master Fund would not be subject absent the use of these instruments, and the use of derivatives generally involves leverage in the sense that the investment exposure created by the derivatives may be significantly greater than the Consolidated Master Fund’s initial investment in the derivatives. Thus, the use of derivatives may result in losses in excess of principal or greater than if they had not been used. The ability to successfully use derivative instruments depends on the ability of the Investment Manager. The skills needed to employ derivatives strategies are different from those needed to select portfolio security and, in connection with such strategies, the Investment Manager must make predictions with respect to market conditions, liquidity, currency movements, market values, interest rates and other applicable factors, which may be inaccurate.
Credit and Counterparty Risk: The Consolidated Master Fund will be subject to credit risk with respect to the counterparties to its derivatives contracts (whether a clearing corporation in the case of exchange-traded instruments or another third party in the case of over-the-counter (“OTC”) instruments) entered into by the Consolidated Master Fund. Counterparty risk is the risk that the other party in a derivative transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligation. Changes in the credit quality of the companies that serve as the Consolidated Master Fund’s counterparties with respect to their derivative transactions will affect the value of those instruments. By entering into derivatives, the Consolidated Master Fund assumes the risks that theses counterparties could experience financial hardships that could call into question their continued ability to perform their obligations. As a result, concentration of such derivatives in any one counterparty would subject the Consolidated Master Fund to an additional degree of risk with respect to defaults by such counterparty. The Investment Manager will monitor the creditworthiness of counterparties in order to evaluate that such counterparties can perform their obligations under the relevant agreements. If a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations under a derivative contract due to financial difficulties, the Consolidated Master Fund may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery under the derivative contract in a dissolution, assignment for the benefit of creditors, liquidation, winding-up, bankruptcy or other analogous proceeding. In addition, in the event of the insolvency of a counterparty to a derivative transaction, the derivative contract would typically be terminated at its fair market value. If the Consolidated Master Fund is owed this fair market value in the termination of the derivative contract and its claim is unsecured, the Consolidated Master Fund will be treated as a general creditor of such counterparty, and will not have any claim with respect to the underlying security. The Consolidated Master Fund may obtain only a limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances.

Blackstone Real Estate Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
Currently, certain categories of interest rate and credit default swaps are subject to mandatory clearing, and more are expected to be cleared in the future. The counterparty risk for cleared derivatives is generally lower than for uncleared OTC derivative transactions because generally a clearing organization becomes substituted for each counterparty to a cleared derivative contract and, in effect, guarantees the parties’ performance under the contract as each party to a trade looks only to the clearing house for performance of financial obligations. However, there can be no assurance that a clearing house, or its members, will satisfy the clearing house’s obligations to the Consolidated Master Fund. Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Consolidated Master Fund under derivative financial instrument contracts, if any, will be reported separately in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Securities pledged as collateral, if any, for the same purpose are noted in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments.
Liquidity Risk: Some securities held by the Consolidated Master Fund may be difficult to sell, or illiquid, during times of market turmoil or otherwise. Illiquid securities may also be difficult to value. If the Consolidated Master Fund is forced to sell an illiquid asset to meet repurchase requests or other cash needs, the Consolidated Master Fund may be forced to sell at a loss or at a price lower than it could have otherwise received.
Non-Diversification Risk: The Consolidated Master Fund is classified as a “non-diversified” investment company which means that the percentage of its assets that may be invested in the securities of a single issuer is not limited by the 1940 Act. As a result, the Consolidated Master Fund’s investment portfolio may be subject to greater risk and volatility than if investments had been made in the securities of a broad range of issuers.
Additional risks associated with each type of investment are described within the respective security type notes. The Feeder Fund I’s prospectus includes a discussion of the principal risks of investing in the Feeder Fund I and indirectly in the Consolidated Master Fund.
7. Subsequent Events
The Investment Manager has evaluated the impact of subsequent events through the date of financial statement issuance, and determined there were no subsequent events outside the normal course of business requiring adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements.

The Board of Trustees (the “Board” and each member thereof, a “Trustee”) of the Consolidated Master Fund and the Feeder Funds supervises the conduct of the Consolidated Master Fund’s and the Feeder Funds’ affairs and, pursuant to the investment management agreements (the “Investment Management Agreements”), has engaged the Investment Manager to manage the Consolidated Master Fund’s and the Feeder Funds’ day-to-day investment activities and operations.
Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein, shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Prospectus of the Feeder Funds.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The Consolidated Master Fund’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are stated in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted.
The Consolidated Master Fund is an investment company in accordance with Accounting Standards Codifications 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies (“ASC 946”), which defines investment companies and prescribes specialized accounting and reporting requirements for investment companies.
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Investment Manager to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Investment Manager believes that the estimates utilized in preparing the consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent; however, actual results may differ from these estimates.
Consolidation
The Master Fund consolidates its investment in the Subsidiary. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements include the assets and liabilities and the results of operations of the Subsidiary listed above. All intercompany balances have been eliminated.

Valuation Policy
The Consolidated Master Fund values its investments in securities, securities sold short, derivative financial instruments and other investments (together, the “investments”) based on market quotations or at fair value. Market quotations can be obtained from third party pricing service providers or broker-dealers. The Board has established procedures for determining the fair value of investments (the “Valuation Procedures”). The Board has delegated to the Investment Manager day-to-day responsibility for implementing the Valuation Procedures. The Investment Manager provides oversight of the valuation and pricing function of the Consolidated Master Fund for all investments. The Investment Manager will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain two or more reliable quotations for each investment, and in connection therewith, will generally value such investments based on the average of the quotations obtained. Pursuant to the Valuation Procedures, if market quotations are not readily available (or are otherwise not reliable for a particular investment), the fair value will be determined in good faith by the Investment Manager, and such determinations shall be reported to the Board. Due to the inherent uncertainty of these estimates, estimates of fair value may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for these investments existed and the differences could be material. Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/ask information, or broker-dealer quotations). The Board has delegated to the Investment Manager the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Consolidated Master Fund’s investments and for determining whether the value of the applicable investments should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. U.S. GAAP defines the fair value as the price that Consolidated Master Fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability (i.e., the exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Valuation techniques and availability of observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and are affected by a variety of factors including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment and the state of the market place, including the existence and transparency of transactions between market participants. Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.
Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following levels within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement:
Level 1 – quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the measurement date. The Consolidated Master Fund does not adjust the quoted price for these investments.
Level 2 – quoted prices are available in markets that are not active or model inputs are based on inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable as of the measurement date.
Level 3 – pricing inputs are unobservable and include instances where there is minimal, if any, market activity for the investment. The Investment Manager, values its investments, in good faith, using valuation techniques applied on a consistent basis. The determination of fair value is based on the best available information in the circumstances and may incorporate the Investment Mangers’ own assumptions and involves significant degree of judgment, taking into consideration a combination of
31
Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
internal and external factors. Due to the inherent uncertainty of these estimates, the estimates of fair value may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for these investments existed and the differences could be material.
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment’s assigned level within the fair value hierarchy. In addition, in periods of market dislocation, the observability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition, as well as changes related to liquidity of investments, could cause a security to be reclassified between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Consolidated Master Fund’s major categories of investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:
Fixed Income Securities
Fixed income securities, including corporate and convertible bonds, mezzanine debt, U.S. and foreign debt obligations, bank loans, and trade claims, are generally valued by broker-dealer quotations or third party pricing service providers on the basis of last available bid price. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing service providers may use broker-dealer quotations, reported trades or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models to determine the reported price. The pricing service providers’ internal models use observable inputs such as issuer details, interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risks/spreads, default rates and quoted prices for similar assets. Securities that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described above and have multiple pricing sources are categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Mortgage-related and asset-backed securities are usually issued as separate tranches, or classes, of securities within each deal. These securities are also normally valued by broker-dealer quotations or third party pricing service providers that use broker-dealer quotations or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models. The pricing models for these securities usually consider the attributes applicable to a particular class of the security (e.g., credit rating, seniority), current market data, estimated cash flows and relative market yield for each class, and incorporate deal collateral performance, as available. Mortgage-related and asset-backed securities that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described above and have multiple pricing sources are categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. Securities with only a single pricing source are categorized as Level 3.
Equity Securities
Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and ask prices on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Securities that use similar valuation techniques and inputs and are active on a listed exchange as described above are categorized as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.
Short-Term Investments
The Consolidated Master Fund considers short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less when acquired to be short-term investments. At June 30, 2018, the Consolidated Master Fund had $36,668,689 invested in JPMorgan U.S. Treasury Money Market Plus Fund (IJTXX—Institutional Class). Investments in money market funds are categorized as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy and are valued at net asset value.

For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
Derivative Financial Instruments
Over the counter (“OTC”) derivative financial instruments, such as credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and options contracts derive their value from underlying referenced instruments or obligations, indices, reference rates, and other inputs or a combination of these factors. These contracts are normally valued by third party pricing service providers and/or based on broker dealer quotations. Depending on the product and the terms of the transaction, the value of derivative financial instruments can be estimated using a series of techniques, including, but not limited to, simulation pricing models. The pricing models use inputs that are observed from actively quoted markets such as issuer details, indices, spreads, interest rates, yield curves, dividends and exchange rates. Derivative financial instruments that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described above are categorized as Level 2
within the fair value hierarchy.
Centrally cleared swaps listed or traded on a multilateral or trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange, are normally valued by third party pricing service providers. For centrally cleared credit default swaps, the clearing facility requires its members to provide actionable levels across complete term structures. These levels along with external third party prices are used to produce daily settlement prices. Centrally cleared interest rate swaps are valued using a pricing model that references the underlying rates to produce the daily settlement price. These securities are categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Securities Sold Short
The Consolidated Master Fund sells securities short (a “Short Sale”) from time to time. A Short Sale is a transaction whereby the Consolidated Master Fund sells securities it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market price of those securities, whereby the Consolidated Master Fund’s broker executes a stock borrow transaction to deliver the securities resulting from the Consolidated Master Fund’s Short Sale. The Consolidated Master Fund is obligated to repurchase the securities at the market price at the time of replacement. The Consolidated Master Fund’s obligations to replace the securities in connection with a Short Sale are secured by collateral.
Upon entering into a Short Sale, the Consolidated Master Fund establishes a liability which is recorded as securities sold short in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities to represent securities due under the Short Sale agreement. The Consolidated Master Fund is liable to pay any interest income earned during the period the Short Sale is open. The interest is recorded as interest on securities sold short in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Option Contracts
The Consolidated Master Fund buys or writes put and call options through listed exchanges and over-the-counter. The buyer of an option has the right to purchase (in the case of a call option) or sell (in the case of a put option) a specified quantity of a specific security or currency at a specified price prior to or on a specified expiration date. The writer of an option is exposed to the risk of loss if the market price of the underlying securities declines (in the case of a put option) or increases (in the case of a call option). The writer of an option can never profit by more than the premium paid by the buyer but can lose an unlimited amount.
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
The Consolidated Master Fund enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts from time to time to obtain investment exposure, enhance return or hedge or protect its portfolio holdings against the risk of future movements in certain foreign currency exchange rates. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are agreements between two parties to exchange a fixed quantity of one currency for another currency at an
33
Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
agreed-upon price on an agreed upon future date. The market value of a forward foreign currency contract fluctuates with the changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
Swap Agreements
The Consolidated Master Fund enters into swaps from time to time, which include total return, interest rate, and credit default swap agreements. Swaps are typically bilaterally negotiated agreements between the Consolidated Master Fund and a counterparty in which the Consolidated Master Fund and counterparty agree to make either periodic net payments on a specified notional amount or a net payment upon termination. Swap agreements are privately negotiated in the over-the-counter market or may be executed in a multilateral or other trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange.
Reverse Repurchase Agreements
The Consolidated Master Fund enters into reverse repurchase agreements from time to time. In a reverse repurchase agreement, the Consolidated Master Fund sells securities in exchange for cash to a financial institution, the counterparty, with a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the same or substantially the same securities at an agreed upon date and price. Certain agreements have no stated maturity and can be terminated by either party at any time. Interest on the value of the reverse repurchase agreements issued and outstanding is based upon competitive market rates determined at the time of issuance. The Consolidated Master Fund may utilize reverse repurchase agreements when it is anticipated that the income to be earned from the investment of the proceeds of the transaction is greater than the interest expense of the transaction. The transactions are generally accounted for as collateralized financing transactions and the Consolidated Master Fund retains ownership of the repurchase security as a pledged asset and records a liability for the repurchase amount.
Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income
Investment transactions are recorded as of the trade date for financial reporting purposes. Income and expenses, including interest, are recorded on an accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from sale of investments are determined on the identified cost basis using the first in first out methodology.
Foreign Currency Translation
The books and records of the Consolidated Master Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars and transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded in the Consolidated Master Fund’s records at the rate prevailing when earned and recorded. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are adjusted to reflect current exchange rates and any unrealized gains (losses) are included in Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments and foreign currency translations on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The resultant exchange gains and losses upon settlement of such transactions are included in Net realized gain on investments and foreign currency translations on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Consolidated Master Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the changes in market prices of the securities.
Cash
As of June 30, 2018, the Consolidated Master Fund had $191,099,253 in domestic cash and $5,618,151 in foreign cash equivalents held at a major U.S. bank.
Contingencies
Under the Consolidated Master Fund’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the “Declaration of Trust”), the Consolidated Master Fund’s officers and each Trustee are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties to the Consolidated Master Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Consolidated Master Fund may enter into contracts that
34
Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
contain a variety of representations and indemnification obligations and expects the risk of loss to be remote. Each Feeder Fund bears its pro-rata share of the Consolidated Master Fund’s expenses, subject to reimbursement by the Investment Manager, pursuant to an expense limitation and reimbursement agreement between each Feeder Fund and the Investment Manager.
Income Taxes
The Consolidated Master Fund is classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. As such, each investor in the Consolidated Master Fund is treated as the owner of its proportionate share of net assets, income, expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses of the Consolidated Master Fund. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. The Consolidated Master Fund plans to file U.S. Federal and various state and local tax returns. All the Consolidated Master Fund’s assets are managed so that the Feeder Funds can satisfy the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
For the open tax years and all major jurisdictions, management of the Consolidated Master Funds has concluded that there are no uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the consolidated financial statements. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limitations on the Consolidated Master Fund’s filed U.S. federal tax returns remains open for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 through December 31, 2017.
Segregation and Collateralization
In cases in which the 1940 Act and the interpretive positions of the SEC and its staff require that the Consolidated Master Fund segregate assets in connection with certain investments (e.g., futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, swaps and options written), or transactions considered to reflect borrowings (e.g., reverse repurchase agreements), the Consolidated Master Fund will, consistent with SEC rules and/or certain interpretive guidance issued by the SEC, segregate assets or designate on its books and records cash or liquid securities having a market value at least equal to the amount that would otherwise be required to be physically segregated. Furthermore, based on requirements and agreements with certain exchanges, third party broker-dealers, futures commissions merchants and clearing organizations, a fund engaging in such transactions may have requirements to deliver/deposit cash or securities to/with an exchange, broker-dealer, futures commission merchant or clearing organization as collateral or margin for certain investments to the extent consistent with the 1940 Act and interpretive positions of the SEC and its staff. The Consolidated Master Fund may mitigate counterparty risk by contractually requiring its counterparties to post collateral under a master agreement and a credit support annex published by International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (collectively, an “ISDA Master Agreement”) implemented between the Consolidated Master Fund and each of its respective counterparties, as well as through netting provisions contained in the ISDA Master Agreement, and reaching other financial agreements between the Consolidated Master Fund and its counterparty in the ISDA Master Agreement. An ISDA Master Agreement may contain certain provisions regarding, among other things, the right parties’ general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral requirements, events of default and early termination. At June 30, 2018, the Consolidated Master Fund used the gross method of presentation in the consolidated financial statements and did not elect to offset amounts eligible for offset under enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements. Collateral pledged by the Consolidated Master Fund is segregated by the Consolidated Master Fund’s custodian and identified as such in the Consolidated Master Fund’s portfolio. Collateral can be in the form of cash or securities as agreed to by the Consolidated Master Fund and the applicable counterparty. Typically, the Consolidated Master Fund and counterparties are not permitted to sell, repledge or otherwise use the collateral they receive.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
The Consolidated Master Fund manages counterparty risk by entering into agreements only with counterparties that are believed to have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. The agreements entered into by the Consolidated Master Fund typically contain credit risk related features that are triggered under certain circumstances. Such circumstances may include agreed upon net asset value thresholds. If triggered, the counterparty may terminate the contract and any transactions thereunder.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-08, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities, which shortens the amortization period for the premium on certain callable debt securities to the earliest call date. The amendments are applicable to any purchased individual debt security with an explicit and noncontingent call feature that is callable at a fixed price on a preset date. The amendments do not impact the accounting for callable debt securities held at a discount, which will continue to be accreted to maturity. ASU 2017-08 will become effective on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted including adoption in an interim period. The amendments will be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Consolidated Master Fund is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2017-08 on its consolidated financial statements.
3. Reverse Repurchase Agreements
The Consolidated Master Fund enters into reverse repurchase agreements with qualified banks or broker-dealers through a Master Repurchase Agreement (“MRA”). An MRA contains provisions for initiation, income payments, events of default and maintenance of securities for repurchase agreements. An MRA may also permit, upon the occurrence of an event of default by one party, the offsetting of obligations under the MRA against obligations under other agreements with the same counterparty to create one single net payment in the event of default or similar events, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of a counterparty.
Reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk that the market value of the securities purchased with the proceeds from the sale of securities received by the Consolidated Master Fund may decline below the price of the securities the Consolidated Master Fund is obligated to repurchase. They also involve the risk that the counterparty liquidates the securities delivered to it by the Consolidated Master Fund under the reverse repurchase agreement following the occurrence of an event of default under the applicable MRA by the Consolidated Master Fund. The Consolidated Master Fund’s use of reverse repurchase agreements also subjects the Consolidated Master Fund to interest costs based on the difference between the sale and repurchase price of a security involved in such a transaction. Additionally, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements entail the same risks as over-the-counter derivatives, as described in Notes 4 and 8. Securities subject to repurchase under reverse repurchase agreements are designated as such in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. Due to the short term nature of the reverse repurchase agreements, face value approximates fair value. As of June 30, 2018, the face value of open reverse repurchase agreements was $498,356,007. The weighted average daily balance of reverse repurchase agreements outstanding during the period ended June 30, 2018, was approximately $377,914,891 at a weighted average daily interest rate of 2.53%.

4. Derivative Financial Instruments
In the normal course of business, the Consolidated Master Fund utilizes derivative contracts in connection with its proprietary trading activities. Investments in derivative contracts are subject to additional risks that can result in a loss of all or part of an investment. The Consolidated Master Fund’s derivative activities and exposure to derivative contracts would be classified by the following primary underlying risks: interest rate, credit, foreign currency exchange rate, commodity price, and equity price risks. In addition to its primary underlying risks, the Consolidated Master Fund is also subject to additional counterparty risk due to inability of its counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The following disclosures contain information on how the Consolidated Master Fund uses derivative contracts.
37
Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
The Consolidated Master Fund enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts from time to time to obtain investment exposure, enhance return or hedge or protect its portfolio holdings against the risk of future movements in certain foreign currency exchange rates. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are agreements between two parties to exchange a fixed quantity of one currency for another currency at an agreed-upon price on an agreed upon future date. The market value of a forward foreign currency contract fluctuates with the changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These contracts are valued daily and the change in market value is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on forward foreign currency exchange contracts. When a contract is closed, the Consolidated Master Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.
The use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of the securities of the Consolidated Master Fund, but it does establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. Although forward foreign currency exchange contracts may limit the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the currency being received, they also limit any potential gain that might result should the value of such currency increase. In addition, the Consolidated Master Fund could be exposed to losses if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of the contracts. The Consolidated Master Fund’s maximum potential loss from such contracts is the aggregate face value in U.S. dollars at the time the contract was opened. These contracts involve market and/or credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Consolidated Master Fund segregates liquid assets with a value equal (on a daily mark-to-market basis) to its obligations under these types of transactions, enters into offsetting transactions or otherwise covers such transactions.
Swap Agreements
The Consolidated Master Fund enters into swaps from time to time, which include total return, interest rate, and credit default swap agreements. Swaps are typically bilaterally negotiated agreements between the Consolidated Master Fund and a counterparty in which the Consolidated Master Fund and counterparty agree to make either periodic net payments on a specified notional amount or a net payment upon termination. Swap agreements are privately negotiated in the over-the-counter market or may be executed in a multilateral or other trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange.
The Consolidated Master Fund may enter into swap agreements for investment purposes or managing exposure to interest rates, credit or market risk, or for other purposes. In connection with these agreements, securities or cash (“segregated cash” or “collateral”) may be paid or received, as applicable, by the Consolidated Master Fund as collateral or margin in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements to provide assets of value and recourse in the event of default or bankruptcy/insolvency. Securities posted by the Consolidated Master Fund as collateral for swap agreements identified in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments and segregated cash, if any, are reflected on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Credit Default Swaps: The Consolidated Master Fund enters into OTC and/or centrally cleared credit default swap contracts from time to time to hedge credit risk, to hedge market risk, or to gain exposure on single name issues and/or baskets of securities (e.g., CMBX, a tradeable index referencing a basket of CMBS). In an OTC credit default swap contract, the protection buyer typically makes an upfront payment and/or a periodic stream of payments to a counterparty, the protection seller, in exchange for the right to receive a contingent payment upon the occurrence of a “credit event” on the reference obligation or all other equally ranked obligations of the reference entity. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructurings and obligation acceleration. An upfront payment received by the Consolidated
38
Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
Master Fund or made by the Consolidated Master Fund is recorded as a liability or asset, respectively, in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Periodic payments received or paid by Consolidated Master Fund are recorded as realized gains or losses. OTC credit default swap contracts are marked to market daily and the change is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on swaps contracts. Upon the occurrence of a credit event, the difference between the par value and the market value of the reference obligation, net of any proportional amount of upfront payment, is recorded as a realized gain or loss on swaps contracts. With respect to selling a credit default swap, the Consolidated Master Fund will segregate assets or otherwise covers its obligations for the notional amount of such credit default swap.
Interest Rate Swaps: The Consolidated Master Fund enters into OTC and/or centrally cleared interest rate swap contracts from time to time to hedge interest rate risk, to gain exposure on interest rates and to hedge prepayment risk. The Consolidated Master Fund is subject to interest rate risk exposure in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. Because the Consolidated Master Fund holds fixed rate bonds, the value of these bonds may decrease if interest rates rise. Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party pays a stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating rate, for another party’s stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating rate, on the same notional amount for a specified period of time. The Consolidated Master Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk, as opposed to investment and other types of risk, in respect of interest rate swaps is typically the discounted net value of the cash flows to be received from the counterparty over the contracts remaining life, to the extent that amount is positive.
Interest rate swaps can be purchased or sold with an upfront premium. An upfront payment received by the Consolidated Master Fund is recorded as a liability on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. An upfront payment made by the Consolidated Master Fund is recorded as an asset on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. OTC and centrally cleared interest rate swaps are marked-to-market daily and any change is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on swaps. Daily fluctuations in the value of centrally cleared interest rate swaps are recorded as a receivable or payable for variation margin on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Payments, including upfront premiums, received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses at the closing of the contract.
Total Return Swaps: The Consolidated Master Fund enters into OTC total return swap contracts from time to time to gain exposure to the investment returns on an underlying financial instrument without purchasing the financial instrument itself. In a total return swap, the Consolidated Master Fund receives the economic returns of the underlying financial instrument, inclusive of any mark to market change in value from the date of such purchase of the underlying instrument, any interest earned from the settlement date of the underlying instrument less a swap financing fee, which is typically LIBOR plus a spread. The total return swap derives its value from the valuation of underlying financial instruments. The underlying financial instruments for the total return swaps held at period end were loans and a bond. The swap is valued daily at current market value and any unrealized appreciation or depreciation is included in the net change in unrealized appreciation/ (depreciation) on swap contracts. Gain or loss is realized on the termination date of the swap and when periodic payments are received or made at the end of each measurement period. During the period the swap is open, the Consolidated Master Fund may be subject to risk from the potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the agreement.
Options Contracts
The Consolidated Master Fund enters into purchased call or put options (“Options”) from time to time. Options may be used to obtain economic exposure equivalent to a long or short position, respectively, or to hedge existing or anticipated portfolio positions. The Consolidated Master Fund may buy or write Options through the OTC market and listed exchanges.

For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
The buyer has the right to purchase (in the case of a call option) or sell (in the case of a put option) a specified quantity of the underlying at a specified price prior to or on a specified expiration date. The writer of an option is exposed to the risk of loss if the price of the underlying declines (in the case of a put option) or increases (in the case of a call option).
Option contracts purchased (call or put) require the payment of premiums in exchange for the right to purchase or sell an underlying at a contracted strike price and maturity. The premium paid by the Consolidated Master Fund is recorded as an asset and is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current fair value of the option.
Option contracts sold (written calls or written puts) obligates the Consolidated Master Fund to buy or sell, within a limited time, an underlying at a contracted strike price and maturity. The writer of an option receives a premium which is recorded as a liability and is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current fair value of the option.

Netting Arrangements
The Consolidated Master Fund uses master netting arrangements, which allows certain derivative financial instruments and collateral with the same counterparty to be offset to minimize counterparty credit exposure. The table below presents information related to derivative financial instruments that are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement (“MNA”) and are not offset, as shown in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2018.
The Consolidated Master Fund enters into ISDA Master Agreements which contain MNA’s that provide for payment netting and, in the case of default or similar event with respect to the counterparty to the MNA, can provide for netting across transactions. Generally, upon counterparty default, the Consolidated Master Fund can terminate all transactions under the MNA and set-off amounts it owes across all transactions under a particular MNA and against collateral under such MNA. The Consolidated Master Fund may not use

derivatives contracts and related collateral governed by an ISDA to offset reverse repurchase agreements and related collateral governed by an MRA.

Repurchases
Repurchases will be made only at such times and on such terms as may be determined by the Consolidated Master Fund’s Board, in its sole discretion.
All shares of beneficial interest, if any, repurchased from shareholders of the Feeder Funds by the Feeder Funds, as applicable, will result in corresponding repurchases of common shares of beneficial interest of the Consolidated Master Fund. Refer to the most recent shareholder reports of the Feeder Funds for repurchase offer amounts for the period ended June 30, 2018.
7. Related Party Transactions
Management Fee
The Consolidated Master Fund pays the Investment Manager an aggregate fixed management fee (the “Management Fee”), payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each quarter. The Management
44
Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
Fee accrues monthly at an annual rate of 1.50% of the Consolidated Master Fund’s Managed Assets at the end of such month before giving effect to the Management Fee payment being calculated or any purchases or repurchases of Consolidated Master Fund shares or any distributions by the Consolidated Master Fund. The Management Fee will reduce the net asset value of the Consolidated Master Fund (and indirectly, of the Feeder Funds) as of the end of the accounting period in which it is payable and after the calculation of the Management Fee. Effective October 1, 2014 through December 31, 2018, the Investment Manager agreed to temporarily reduce its Management Fee to an annualized rate of 0.75% of the Consolidated Master Fund’s Managed Assets (“Management Fee Waiver”). The Investment Manager may, in its sole discretion and at any time (including prior to December 31, 2018), elect to extend, terminate or modify its voluntary waiver. The Management Fee, after the Management Fee Waiver, was $4,954,838 for the period ended June 30, 2018.
Incentive Fee
The Consolidated Master Fund accrues a performance-based incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”) on a monthly basis throughout the fiscal year of the Consolidated Master Fund. The Incentive Fee is paid to the Investment Manager promptly after the end of each fiscal year of the Consolidated Master Fund pursuant to the Consolidated Master Fund’s investment management agreement. The Incentive Fee is determined as of the end of the fiscal year in an amount equal to 15% of the amount by which the Consolidated Master Fund’s Net Capital Appreciation (as defined below) for each Fiscal Period ending within or coterminous with the close of such fiscal year exceeds the balance of the loss carryforward account and any allocated Management Fee expense for such Fiscal Period, without duplication for any Incentive Fees paid during such fiscal year. The Consolidated Master Fund also pays the Investment Manager the Incentive Fee in the event a Fiscal Period is triggered in connection with a repurchase offer by the Consolidated Master Fund. For purposes of calculating the Incentive Fee, “Net Capital Appreciation” means, with respect to any Fiscal Period, the difference, if any, between (x) the sum of (i) the value of the Consolidated Master Fund’s net asset value at the end of that Fiscal Period (prior to the Incentive Fee for such Fiscal Period) increased by the dollar amount of the Consolidated Master Fund’s interests repurchased during the Fiscal Period (excluding repurchases as of the last day of the Fiscal Period after determination of the Incentive Fee), (ii) the amount of any dividends, distributions or withdrawals paid to shareholders during the Fiscal Period and not reinvested in the Consolidated Master Fund (excluding any dividends, distributions or withdrawals to be paid as of the last day of the Fiscal Period), and (iii) the Management Fee expense for that Fiscal Period, and (y) the sum of (i) the value of the Consolidated Master Fund’s net asset value at the beginning of that Fiscal Period (prior to the Management Fee for such Fiscal Period), increased by the dollar amount of the Consolidated Master Fund’s interests issued during the Fiscal Period (excluding any shares issued in connection with the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions paid by the Consolidated Master Fund) and (ii) the amount of any subscriptions to the Consolidated Master Fund during that Fiscal Period. All calculations of Net Capital Appreciation will be made (without duplication) after deduction of all general, administrative and other operating expenses of the Consolidated Master Fund (excluding the Incentive Fee) and any amounts necessary, in the Investment Manager’s sole discretion, as appropriate reserves for such expenses. The Consolidated Master Fund’s Incentive Fee was $7,557,215 for the period ended June 30, 2018.
Expense Payments
Blackstone Holdings Finance Co. L.L.C. (“FINCO”), an affiliate of the Investment Manager, pays expenses on behalf of the Consolidated Master Fund from time to time. The Consolidated Master Fund reimburses FINCO for such expenses paid on behalf of the Consolidated Master Fund. FINCO does not charge any fees for providing such administrative services. The amount of $15,528 as of period-end is recorded as payable to affiliate in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

MBS Investments
As of June 30, 2018, the Consolidated Master Fund’s investments included three mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) with a total cost basis of $130,360,085 collateralized by properties owned by investment vehicles that are advised by an affiliate of the Investment Manager (an “affiliated investment vehicle”) and one MBS with a total cost basis of $7,254,000 collateralized by a loan previously held by an affiliated investment vehicle, which retained the entire first-loss risk retention tranche in the securitization. Such MBS were purchased in fully or over-subscribed offerings on market terms negotiated by the majority third-party investors. Each investment in such MBS by the Consolidated Master Fund and the affiliated investment vehicles represented a minority participation in any individual tranche. The Consolidated Master Fund and the affiliated investment vehicles will forgo all non-economic rights (including voting rights) in such MBS as long as the other affiliated investment vehicles own above a certain threshold of interest in the properties collateralizing or loans underlying, or have an interest in a different part of the capital structure related to, such MBS. For the period ended June 30, 2018, the Consolidated Master Fund recorded interest income of $1,802,389 and an unrealized loss of $2,307,401 related to its investments in such MBS. Such amounts were reported as a component of interest on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
8. Financial Instruments and Off-Balance Sheet Risk
Market Risk: In the normal course of business, the Consolidated Master Fund invests in securities and enters into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit and counterparty risk). The value of securities held by the Consolidated Master Fund may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the companies whose securities are owned by the Consolidated Master Fund; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations.
Derivative Risk: The Consolidated Master Fund enters into derivatives transactions which may include, without limitation, options contracts, futures contracts, options on futures contracts, forward contracts, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, credit default swaps and other swap agreements for investment, hedging or leverage purposes. The Consolidated Master Fund’s use of derivative instruments may be speculative and involves investment risks and transaction costs to which the Consolidated Master Fund would not be subject absent the use of these instruments, and the use of derivatives generally involves leverage in the sense that the investment exposure created by the derivatives may be significantly greater than the Consolidated Master Fund’s initial investment in the derivatives. Thus, the use of derivatives may result in losses in excess of principal or greater than if they had not been used. The ability to successfully use derivative instruments depends on the ability of the Investment Manager. The skills needed to employ derivatives strategies are different from those needed to select portfolio security and, in connection with such strategies, the Investment Manager must make predictions with respect to market conditions, liquidity, currency movements, market values, interest rates and other applicable factors, which may be inaccurate.
Credit and Counterparty Risk: The Consolidated Master Fund will be subject to credit risk with respect to the counterparties to its derivatives contracts (whether a clearing corporation in the case of exchange-traded instruments or another third party in the case of OTC instruments) purchased by the Consolidated Master Fund. The Investment Manager will evaluate and monitor the creditworthiness of counterparties in order to ensure that such counterparties can perform their obligations under the relevant agreements. If a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations under a derivative contract due to financial difficulties, the Consolidated Master Fund may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery under the derivative contract in a dissolution, assignment for the benefit of creditors, liquidation, winding-up, bankruptcy or other analogous proceeding. In addition, in the event of the insolvency of a counterparty to a
46
Blackstone Real Estate Income Master Fund and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Period Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)
derivative transaction, the derivative contract would typically be terminated at its fair market value. If the Consolidated Master Fund is owed this fair market value in the termination of the derivative contract and its claim is unsecured, the Consolidated Master Fund will be treated as a general creditor of such counterparty, and will not have any claim with respect to the underlying security. The Consolidated Master Fund may obtain only a limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances.
Currently, certain categories of interest rate and credit default swaps are subject to mandatory clearing, and more are expected to be cleared in the future. The counterparty risk for cleared derivatives is generally lower than for uncleared OTC derivative transactions because generally a clearing organization becomes substituted for each counterparty to a cleared derivative contract and, in effect, guarantees the parties’ performance under the contract as each party to a trade looks only to the clearing house for performance of financial obligations. However, there can be no assurance that a clearing house, or its members, will satisfy the clearing house’s obligations to the Consolidated Master Fund. Counterparty risk with respect to certain exchange-traded and over-the counter derivatives may be further complicated by recently enacted U.S. financial reform legislation. Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Consolidated Master Fund under derivative financial instrument contracts, if any, will be reported separately in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Securities pledged as collateral, if any, for the same purpose are noted in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments.
Liquidity Risk: Some securities held by the Consolidated Master Fund may be difficult to sell, or illiquid, during times of market turmoil or otherwise. Illiquid securities may also be difficult to value. If the Consolidated Master Fund is forced to sell an illiquid asset to meet repurchase requests or other cash needs, the Consolidated Master Fund may be forced to sell at a loss or at a price lower than it could have otherwise received.
Non-Diversification Risk: The Consolidated Master Fund is classified as a “non-diversified” investment company which means that the percentage of its assets that may be invested in the securities of a single issuer is not limited by the 1940 Act. As a result, the Consolidated Master Fund’s investment portfolio may be subject to greater risk and volatility than if investments had been made in the securities of a broad range of issuers.
