On behalf of the USQ Core Real Estate Fund (the "Fund"), set forth below is the Fund's response to a comment from the staff of the Division of Investment Management (the "Staff") of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), conveyed by you in a telephone conversation on September 21, 2017, regarding the Fund's Pre-Effective Amendment No. 3 to its Registration Statement on Form N-2 (the "Registration Statement"). For your convenience, the Staff's comment is presented in bold text below, followed by the Fund's response. Changes to the Registration Statement noted below will be reflected in a filing pursuant to Rule 497(c) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Registration Statement.

Please replace that disclosure with a statement that the Fund may repurchase shares involuntarily at net asset value in accordance with the Fund's Agreement and Declaration of Trust, Section 23 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and the rules thereunder. |
