Operating Results
Overview
RealtyMogul Apartment Growth REIT, Inc. is a Maryland corporation formed on January 13, 2017 to own and manage a diversified portfolio of preferred equity and joint venture equity investments in multifamily properties located in target markets throughout the United States. The use of the terms “RealtyMogul Apartment Growth REIT,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” in this semiannual report refer to RealtyMogul Apartment Growth REIT, Inc., unless the context indicates otherwise. We have elected to be taxed, and currently qualify, as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2017.
We operate under the direction of the board of directors, the members of which are accountable to us and our stockholders as fiduciaries. The current board members are Jilliene Helman, Flynann Janisse and Louis S. Weeks III. Ms. Janisse and Mr. Weeks are independent directors. We are externally managed by RM Adviser, LLC (our “Manager”), which is an affiliate of our sponsor, RM Sponsor, LLC (our “Sponsor”). Our Manager and our Sponsor are each wholly-owned subsidiaries of Realty Mogul, Co. Our Manager manages our day-to-day operations and also provides asset management, investor relations and other administrative services on our behalf with the goal of maximizing our operating cash flow and preserving our capital. All shares of our common stock are distributed to the public exclusively through an online investment platform we refer to as the Realty Mogul Platform (www.realtymogul.com). The Realty Mogul Platform is operated by RM Technologies, LLC, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Realty Mogul, Co. and an affiliate of both our Manager and our Sponsor. We do not currently have any employees nor do we currently intend to hire any employees who will be compensated directly by us.
On August 23, 2017, we commenced our initial public offering of $50,000,000 in shares of common stock (the “Initial Offering”). On December 23, 2020, our follow-on offering (the “Follow-on Offering,” and together with the Initial Offering, the “Offerings”) was qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and we terminated our Initial Offering. We are continuing to offer in the Follow-on Offering up to $57,903,648 in shares of our common stock, including shares sold pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, which represents the value of the shares available to be offered as of December 8, 2022 out of the rolling 12-month maximum offering amount of $75,000,000 in shares of our common stock.
As of June 30, 2023, we had issued 5,855,796 shares of our common stock in the Offerings for total aggregate gross offering proceeds of approximately $61,003,000. We expect to offer shares of our common stock in the Follow-on Offering until the earlier of (i) December 23, 2023, which is three years from the qualification date of the Follow-on Offering, or (ii) the date on which the maximum offering amount has been raised, unless the Follow-on Offering is terminated by our board of directors at an earlier time.
As of June 30, 2023, our portfolio comprised approximately $190,284,000 in real estate investments at original cost that, in the opinion of our Manager, meets our investment objectives. We have made, and intend to continue to make, preferred equity and joint venture equity investments in established, well-positioned apartment communities that have demonstrated consistently high occupancy and income levels across market cycles as well as multifamily properties that offer value added opportunities with appropriate risk-adjusted returns and opportunity for value appreciation.
Results of Operations
Our financial statements are presented for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) require any subsidiaries or affiliates under common control to be consolidated. The financial statements contained in this report include the financial statements of the Company and its controlled joint ventures, Vinegar Hill Asset, LLC, which was acquired in 2017, Avon 46, LLC, which was acquired in 2018, NinetyNine44 Owner, LLC, which was acquired in 2020, RM Orion, LLC, Lotus Village Holdco, LLC and RM Sherwood Oaks, LLC, which were acquired in 2021, and RM Ridgeline View, LLC and RM Brookside, LLC, which were acquired in 2023.
Net Income, Operating Income and Consolidated Net Income
The six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 resulted in net (loss) income attributable to RealtyMogul Apartment Growth REIT, Inc. of approximately $(590,000) and $9,798,000, respectively, operating income of approximately $1,694,000 and $1,234,000, respectively, and consolidated net (loss) income of approximately $(1,754,000) and $16,020,000, respectively. The changes in net (loss) income attributable to RealtyMogul Apartment Growth REIT, Inc. and consolidated net (loss) income for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 are primarily attributable to a gain on sale of real estate investment of $17,614,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022; there were no sales of real estate investments for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Sources of Operating Revenue and Cash Flows
Our revenue is mainly generated from rental income, tenant fee income and tenant reimbursements.
Rental Income, Net
For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we earned rental income, net of approximately $7,817,000 and $8,826,000, respectively. This decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, was primarily due to sales of Avon Place Apartments and The Clover on Park Lane in 2022 and partially offset by the acquisitions of Ridgeline View Townhomes and Brookside Apartments in 2023 and increases in rental income in our existing portfolio.
Tenant Reimbursements and Other Revenue
For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we earned tenant reimbursements and other revenue of approximately $798,000 and $1,216,000, respectively. This decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, was primarily due to sales of Avon Place Apartments and The Clover on Park Lane in 2022 as well as one-time insurance income for Ninety-Nine44 Owner, LLC in 2022.
Expenses
For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we incurred depreciation and amortization expenses of approximately $2,193,000 and $2,679,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we incurred general and administrative expenses of approximately $777,000 and $790,000, respectively, which includes professional fees, insurance expenses and other costs associated with running our business as well as operating expenses for our consolidated investments. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we incurred real estate operating expenses of approximately $4,098,000 and $4,645,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we incurred interest expense of approximately $3,134,000 and $2,794,000, respectively.
Distributions
Our board of directors has authorized and we have paid, and we expect that our board of directors will continue to authorize and we will continue to pay, distributions quarterly in arrears. Stockholders who are record holders with respect to declared distributions will be entitled to such distributions until such time as the stockholders have had their shares repurchased by us. Although our goal is to fund the payment of distributions solely from cash flow from operations, we have paid, and may continue to pay, distributions from other sources, including the net proceeds of the Offerings, cash advances by our Manager, cash resulting from a waiver of fees or reimbursements due to our Manager, borrowings in anticipation of future operating cash flow and the issuance of additional securities, and we have no limit on the amounts we may pay from such other sources.
Our board of directors has authorized quarterly distributions for stockholders of record as of the close of business on the last day of each quarter. Distributions made for quarterly distribution periods in 2022 and 2023 are shown in the table below:

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we paid distributions to our stockholders of approximately $1,305,000, including through the issuance of shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We require capital to fund our investment activities and operating expenses. Our capital sources may include net proceeds from the Offerings, cash flow from operations and borrowings under credit facilities.
We currently obtain the capital required to purchase real estate-related investments and conduct our operations from the proceeds of the Offerings and any future offerings we may conduct, from secured or unsecured financings from banks and other lenders and from any undistributed funds from our operations. As of June 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $6,256,000 and approximately $16,039,000 invested in marketable securities at fair value that are available to provide capital for operations and investments. We anticipate that proceeds from the Offerings, cash flow from operations and available cash will provide sufficient liquidity to meet future funding commitments for at least one year from the date the financial statements included herewith were available to be issued.
We expect to selectively employ leverage to enhance total returns to our stockholders. We do not expect to use leverage at the portfolio level, but we have used, and may continue to use, asset-level leverage, which, in the aggregate, we do not expect to exceed 75% of the cost (before deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves) of our total assets, capital expenditures and closing costs. As of June 30, 2023, we had outstanding borrowings of approximately $135,634,000, net of deferred financing costs and premium.
In addition to making investments in accordance with our investment objectives, we expect to use our capital resources to make certain payments to our Manager. During our organization and offering stage, these payments will include payments for reimbursement of certain organization and offering expenses. Assuming we raise the maximum offering amount of $57,903,648 in the Follow-on Offering, our organization and offering expenses are expected to be approximately 3% of gross offering proceeds. If the Follow-on Offering is not successfully completed, we will not be obligated to pay the remaining offering and organizational costs owed to our Manager. In addition, we reimburse our Manager for out-of-pocket expenses incurred on our behalf, including license fees, auditing fees, fees associated with SEC reporting requirements, acquisition expenses, interest expenses, property management fees, insurance costs, tax return preparation fees, marketing costs, taxes and filing fees, administration fees, fees for the services of independent directors and third-party costs associated with the aforementioned expenses.
The sponsors of our joint venture investments in real estate may make payments to our Sponsor or its affiliates in connection with the selection or purchase of investments. We will pay our Manager a monthly asset management fee of one-twelfth of 1.25%, which is based on total equity value, which equals (a) our then-current per share NAV, as determined by our board of directors, multiplied by (b) the number of shares of our common stock then outstanding. Any portion of the asset management fee may be deferred and paid in a subsequent period upon the mutual agreement of the Company and our Manager.

Market Outlook and Recent Trends
We believe that a number of factors account for the continued strength of the multifamily sector, including: (1) entry into the job market of the Millennial generation and Generation Z, who are a prime age cohort for rentals; (2) credit issues for consumers, compounded by student debt, and tightened bank requirements for home mortgages; (3) general consumer preference to remain flexible in their lifestyles, which is facilitated by rental housing; and (4) the rise in pricing of single-family homes after the COVID-19 pandemic and the rise in the cost of mortgages, both of which are making it more challenging to purchase a single-family home.
During Q2 2023, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis estimated that U.S. seasonally adjusted real GDP increased 2.4% quarter over quarter. The Federal Reserve updated its forecast for 2023 growth in the nation’s GDP from the 0.4% it projected in March 2023 to 1.0% as well as projected a 4.1% unemployment rate for 2023, down from the March 2023 estimate of 4.5%. The unemployment rate ended 2022 at 3.7%. Average hourly earnings for employees increased 5.7% year over year according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. In addition, the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) rose year over year 4.9% in April, 4.0% in May, and 3.0% in June according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Shelter costs, which comprise approximately one-third of CPI, increased 7.8% year over year. Given the economic inflation, the Federal Reserve has taken steps to cool off the economy by increasing the Federal Funds Rate, the rate at which commercial banks borrow and lend their excess reserves to each other overnight, seven times in 2022 and four times in 2023 from a target rate of 0.00% to 0.25% to the current target rate of 5.25% to 5.50%. The Federal Reserve is reducing its balance sheet through quantitative tightening, allowing bonds to mature without reinvestment of the principal. As it relates to real estate purchases, the cost to finance a real estate investment with a mortgage increased in each quarter of 2022, stabilizing in Q4 2022 before increasing again in Q2 2023; however, we believe that real estate is positively correlated with inflation as property prices and rental income tend to rise as inflation rises. We like multifamily investments in an inflationary environment as the typical one-year lease term allows an owner to mark rents to market on an annual basis. We believe that RealtyMogul Apartment Growth REIT is well positioned as it continues to seek a diversified portfolio of multifamily real estate, which has a low or negative correlation to other major asset classes and over time has exhibited less volatility than other asset classes.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
Our primary investment objectives are to realize capital appreciation in the value of our investments over the long term and to pay attractive and stable cash distributions to stockholders.
We have made, and intend to continue to make, preferred equity and joint venture equity investments in multifamily properties located in target markets throughout the United States. We have invested, and intend to continue to invest, in apartment communities that have demonstrated consistently high occupancy and income levels across market cycles as well as multifamily properties that offer value added opportunities with appropriate risk-adjusted returns and opportunity for value appreciation.
RealtyMogul Apartment Growth REIT is focused entirely on multifamily apartment communities. We have pursued this strategy because we believe multifamily assets have significant upside potential due to the nationwide housing shortage as a result of under-building, according to Fannie Mae. We also believe that there is additional upside potential as a result of the rise in pricing of single-family homes after the COVID-19 pandemic and the rise in the up-front and ongoing costs of mortgages, both of which may increase the cost of a single-family home, according to S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price NSA Index and Freddie Mac. We further believe that multifamily assets provide downside protection as a result of the large numbers of tenants at each multifamily property, creating diverse income streams.
For our value-add multifamily investments, our investment strategy involves acquiring apartment communities that can benefit from a value-add plan in which the real estate operator is making both exterior improvements, such as adding amenities like playgrounds, clubhouses and outdoor living areas, as well as interior improvements such as upgraded appliances, air conditioning and finishes. We believe that these investments have a high value from an investment standpoint and also a local community standpoint by enhancing previously underserviced apartment buildings. We also believe that these properties offer downside protection on one’s investment due to the large number of tenants at each property and the adaptability of individual property business plans. Given the current macroeconomic climate, specifically with regard to rising interest rates and the cost of debt capital being more expensive, we are also targeting growth strategies such as lease-up of new development and light value-add with an organic mark to market on rents. These strategies have lighter renovation budgets for the property, but rather aim to take advantage of the strength of a particular market or submarket in which demand pressures lead to increases in rental income and fee income.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. Such judgments are based on our management’s experience, our historical experience, the experience of our Manager’s affiliates, and the industry. We consider these policies critical because we believe that understanding these policies is critical to understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. Additionally, these policies may involve significant management judgments and assumptions, or require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments will affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.
Please refer to “Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in Item 3. “Financial Statements” contained in this report, for a more thorough discussion of our accounting policies and procedures.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2023, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Restoration on Candlewood – Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
On March 21, 2023, we acquired a $5,250,000 preferred equity investment (the “PE Investment”) in an entity that owns a 328-unit, Class B apartment community (the “Property”) in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
We acquired the PE Investment from Realty Mogul Commercial Capital, Co. (“RMCC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Realty Mogul, Co., for a total of $5,250,000, which represents the principal amount. RMCC sold the investment on the same day of the acquisition closing and therefore there was no accrued but unpaid interest as of the purchase date. The PE Investment has a 3-year term and is interest only with a fixed interest rate of 15.50% per annum. There is no current pay requirement; interest accrues on a monthly basis and is cumulative and compounding to the extent unpaid. We have capitalized a $300,000 payment reserve in order for the real estate company sponsoring the transaction to pay a 7% current interest per annum during the first year of operation as the real estate company stabilizes operations pursuant to the business plan described below. All accrued interest must be paid in full before the common equity receives a distribution. The Company’s basis on the transaction is $82,164 per unit, which is over $12,000 per unit below any of the Property’s sales comparables.
In connection with the PE Investment, RMCC received an origination fee in the amount of $157,500. In addition, RMCC is entitled to receive a servicing fee in connection with the PE Investment.
Estimated Per Share NAV as of June 30, 2023
On August 7, 2023, our board of directors approved an estimated NAV per share of our common stock of $10.47 as of June 30, 2023. This NAV per share will be effective until updated by us on or about September 30, 2023, or within a commercially reasonable time thereafter, unless updated by us prior to that time.
Our NAV per share is calculated by the internal accountants or asset managers of Realty Mogul, Co. at the end of each fiscal quarter. The NAV per share calculation as of June 30, 2023 reflects the total value of our assets minus the total value of our liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding as of June 30, 2023.
As with any methodology used to estimate value, the methodology employed by Realty Mogul, Co.’s internal accountants or asset managers is based upon a number of estimates and assumptions about future events that may not be accurate or complete. Further, different parties using different assumptions and estimates could derive a different NAV per share, which could be significantly different from our calculated NAV per share. Our NAV will fluctuate over time and does not represent: (i) the price at which our shares would trade on a national securities exchange, (ii) the amount per share a stockholder would obtain if he, she or it tried to sell his, her or its shares or (iii) the amount per share stockholders would receive if we liquidated our assets and distributed the proceeds after paying all our expenses and liabilities. See the section of our offering circular, as supplemented, captioned “Risk Factors ‒ There can be no assurance that our NAV per share will be accurate on any given date particularly in light of COVID-19 pandemic.”
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Our Manager believes that funds from operations (“FFO”) and adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”), which are non-GAAP measures, are additional appropriate measures of the operating performance of a REIT and the Company. We compute FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of depreciable properties, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, real estate-related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated/uncombined partnerships and joint ventures. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company’s cash flow generated by operations.
We calculate AFFO by subtracting from (or adding to) FFO:
| ● | the amortization or accrual of various deferred costs; and |
| ● | an adjustment to reverse the effects of unrealized gains/(losses) |
Our calculation of AFFO differs from the methodology used for calculating AFFO by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to AFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and AFFO as measures of our operating performance, and believes they are also useful to investors, because they facilitate an understanding of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash expenses. Additionally, FFO and AFFO serve as measures of our operating performance because they facilitate evaluation of the Company without the effects of selected items required in accordance with GAAP that may not necessarily be indicative of current operating performance and that may not accurately compare our operating performance between periods. Furthermore, although FFO, AFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we also believe that FFO and AFFO may provide us and our investors with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs.
Neither FFO nor AFFO is equivalent to net income or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and AFFO do not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. Neither FFO nor AFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.
Our unaudited FFO and AFFO calculations for the six months ended June 30, 2023, are as follows:

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2023 (unaudited)
(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)
Note 1 - Formation and Organization
RealtyMogul Apartment Growth REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed as a Maryland corporation on January 13, 2017 to own and manage a diversified portfolio of preferred equity and joint venture equity investments in multifamily properties located in target markets throughout the United States. The Company was formed under the name MogulREIT II, Inc. and, effective October 15, 2021, changed its name to RealtyMogul Apartment Growth REIT, Inc. The use of the terms “RealtyMogul Apartment Growth REIT,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” in this semiannual report refer to RealtyMogul Apartment Growth REIT, Inc., unless the context indicates otherwise.
The Company is externally managed by RM Adviser, LLC (“Manager”), which is an affiliate of the Company’s sponsor, RM Sponsor, LLC (“Sponsor”). Our Manager and our Sponsor are each wholly-owned subsidiaries of Realty Mogul, Co. (“RM”). Our Manager is an investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Although our Manager manages our day-to-day operations, we operate under the direction of our board of directors, a majority of whom are independent directors.
The Company’s investing and management activities related to multifamily real estate are all considered a single reportable business segment for financial reporting purposes. All of the investments the Company has made to date have been in domestic multifamily real estate assets with similar economic characteristics, and the Company evaluates the performance of all of its investments using similar criterion.
We believe we have operated in such a manner as to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes.
On August 23, 2017, we commenced our initial public offering (the “Initial Offering”) of up to $50,000 in shares of common stock, including shares sold pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. On December 23, 2020, we commenced our follow-on offering (the “Follow-on Offering” and, together with the Initial Offering, the “Offerings”) and terminated the Initial Offering. We are continuing to offer in the Follow-on Offering up to $57,904 in shares of our common stock, including shares sold pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, which represents the value of the shares available to be offered as of December 8, 2022 out of the rolling 12-month maximum offering amount of $75,000 in shares of our common stock. As of June 30, 2023, we had issued 5,855,796 shares of our common stock in the Offerings for gross offering proceeds of approximately $61,003.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair interim presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of operating results for any other interim period or for the entire year and certain disclosures may be condensed for interim reporting. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 1-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, which was filed with the SEC on May 1, 2023.
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated on the basis of weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share of common stock equals basic net income per share of common stock as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual events and results could differ from those assumptions and estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates fair value.
Concentration of Credit Risk
At times, our cash may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation deposit insurance limit of $250 per institution. The Company mitigates credit risk by placing cash with major financial institutions. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses on cash.
Geographic Concentration
As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s investments in real estate operate in Texas, New York, Michigan, Florida, Oklahoma, Washington and North Carolina. Future operations could be affected by changes in economic or other conditions in those geographical areas or the demand for such housing in those geographical areas.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company’s annualized rental income in real estate equity investments by state is approximately 42%, 19%, 19%, 13%, 5% and 2% for Texas, Michigan, Florida, New York North Carolina and Washington, respectively.

Organizational, Offering and Related Costs
Organizational and offering costs of the Company are initially being paid by the Manager on behalf of the Company. These organizational and offering costs include all expenses to be paid by the Company in connection with the formation of the Company and the qualification of the Offerings, and the marketing and distribution of shares, including, without limitation, expenses for printing, and amending offering statements or supplementing offering circulars, mailing and distributing costs, advertising and marketing expenses, charges of experts and fees, expenses and taxes related to the filing, registration and qualification of the sale of shares under federal and state laws, including taxes and fees and accountants’ and attorneys’ fees.
The Company expenses organization costs as incurred and offering costs, when incurred, will be deferred and charged to additional paid-in capital. The deferred offering costs will be charged against the gross proceeds of the Offerings when received or written off in the event that the Follow-on Offering is not successfully completed.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Manager has incurred offering costs of $1,893 and $1,893, respectively, on behalf of the Company. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $1,830 and $1,717 of offering costs, respectively, had been amortized and were included in the consolidated statements of equity.
Variable Interest Entities and Voting Interest Entities
A variable interest entity (“VIE”) is an entity that lacks one or more of the characteristics of a voting interest entity. A VIE is defined as an entity in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The determination of whether an entity is a VIE includes consideration of various factors. These factors include review of the formation and design of the entity, its organizational structure including decision-making ability and relevant financial agreements, and analysis of the forecasted cash flows of the entity. We make an initial determination upon acquisition of a VIE, and reassess the initial evaluation of an entity as a VIE upon the occurrence of certain events.
A VIE must be consolidated only by its primary beneficiary, which is defined as the party who, along with its affiliates and agents has both the: (i) power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s performance; and (ii) obligation to absorb the losses of the VIE or the right to receive the benefits from the VIE, which could be significant to the VIE. We determine whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE by considering various factors, including, but not limited to: which activities most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and which party controls such activities; the amount and characteristics of its investment; the obligation or likelihood for us or other interests to provide financial support; consideration of the VIE’s purpose and design, including the risks the VIE was designed to create and pass through to its variable interest holders and the similarity with and significance to the business activities of our interest and the other interests. We reassess our determination of whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE each reporting period. Significant judgments related to these determinations include estimates about the future performance of investments held by VIEs and general market conditions. The maximum risk of loss related to our investments is limited to our recorded investment in such entities, if any.
A voting interest entity (“VOE”) is an entity in which equity investors have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities. A controlling financial interest exists if limited partners with equity at risk are able to exercise substantive kick-out rights or are able to exercise substantive participation rights. Under the VOE model, generally, only a single limited partner that is able to exercise substantial kick-out rights will consolidate the entity.

As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company held an investment in one entity which was evaluated under the VIE model and was not consolidated because the Company does not have substantive kick-out rights or a controlling financial interest. This investment is carried on the consolidated financial statements using the equity method.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company held investments in seven and five entities, respectively, which were evaluated under the VOE model and are consolidated because the Company is able to exercise substantial kick-out rights and substantive participating rights.
Commercial Real Estate Debt Investments
Our commercial real estate debt investments are generally classified as held to maturity as we have both the intent and the ability to hold these investments to maturity and, accordingly, are carried at cost, net of unamortized loan fees, premium, discount and unfunded commitments. We review our debt related investments on a monthly basis, or more frequently when such an evaluation is needed, to determine if an impairment exists. A debt related investment is impaired when, based on current information and events (including economic, industry and geographical factors), it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due, both principal and interest, according to the contractual terms of the agreement. When an investment is deemed impaired, the impairment is measured based on the expected future cash flows discounted at the investment’s effective interest rate. As a practical expedient, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 310, Receivables, which permits a creditor to measure an observable market price for the impaired debt related investment as an alternative to discounting expected future cash flows. Regardless of the measurement method, a creditor should measure impairment based on the fair value of the collateral when the creditor determines that foreclosure is probable. A debt related investment is also considered impaired if its terms are modified in a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). A TDR occurs when we grant a concession to a borrower in financial difficulty by modifying the original terms of the loan. Impairments on TDR loans are generally measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate of the original loan.
Commercial real estate debt investments that are deemed to be impaired are carried at amortized cost less a loan reserve, if deemed appropriate, which approximates fair value.
We have certain investments that are legally structured as equity investments with rights to receive preferred economic returns. We report these investments as real estate debt securities when the common equity holders have a contractual obligation to redeem our preferred equity interest at a specified date.
Income Taxes
The Company operates and is taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes beginning with the year ended December 31, 2017. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to its stockholders. As a REIT, the Company generally is not subject to federal corporate income tax on that portion of its taxable income that is currently distributed to stockholders. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. No material provisions have been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and no gross deferred tax assets or liabilities have been recorded as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022, $1,305 and $2,281, respectively, in distributions have been declared to stockholders. The Company expects its distributions to be characterized for federal income tax purposes as (i) ordinary income, (ii) non-taxable return of capital, or (iii) long-term capital gain. Distributions that exceed current or accumulated taxable earnings and profits constitute a return of capital for tax purposes and reduce the stockholders’ basis in the shares of common stock. To the extent that distributions exceed both current and accumulated earnings and profits and the stockholders’ basis in shares of common stock, they will generally be treated as a gain or loss upon the sale or exchange of our stockholders’ shares of common stock. We will report the taxability of such distributions in information returns that will be provided to our stockholders and filed with the Internal Revenue Service in the year following such distributions.
Tax periods from 2020 to 2023 remain open to examination by the major taxing authorities in all jurisdictions where we are subject to taxation.
Stock Subscription Receivable
Stock subscription receivable consists of shares that have been issued with subscriptions that have not yet settled. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was $60 and $131, respectively, in subscriptions that had not settled. All of these funds settled subsequent to June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Stock subscription receivable is carried at cost which approximates fair value.
Settling Subscription Payable
Share repurchases initiated in June 30, 2023 and December 2022 were settled in August 2023 and February 2023, respectively. The liabilities were reversed subsequent to June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 when the share repurchases settled in August 2023 and February 2023, respectively.
Revenue Recognition
Rental income is recognized as rentals become due. Rental payments received in advance are deferred until earned. All leases between the Company and tenants of the property are operating leases and are one year or less.
For certain properties, in addition to contractual base rent, the tenants pay their share of utilities to the Company. The income and expenses associated with these properties are generally recorded on a gross basis when the Company is the primary obligor.
Tenant fees, such as application fees, administrative fees, late fees, and other revenues from tenants are recorded when amounts become due.
As a result of the adoption of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), the Company has updated its policies as it relates to revenue recognition. Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer. The adoption of ASC 606 in 2019 did not materially change our revenue recognition patterns.

Purchase Accounting for Acquisitions of Real Estate
Prior to January 1, 2018, the Company recorded acquired real estate investments that are consolidated as business combinations when the real estate is occupied, at least in part, at acquisition. Costs directly related to the acquisition of such investments have been expensed as incurred. The purchase consideration included cash paid, the fair value of equity or other assets issued, and the fair value of any assumed debt. The Company assessed the fair value of assumed debt based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount rates and available market information. Such inputs are categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The difference between the fair value and the stated principal of assumed debt is amortized using the effective interest method basis over the terms of the respective debt obligation.
The Company allocated the fair value of the purchase consideration to the fair value of land, buildings, site improvements and intangible assets including in-place leases at the acquisition date. The Company estimated the fair value of the assets using market-based, cost-based, and income-based valuation techniques.
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business (“ASC 805”), which provides that if substantially all the fair value of the gross assets is concentrated in any individual asset, the acquisition is treated as an asset acquisition as opposed to a business combination. Under an asset acquisition, costs directly related to the acquisition are capitalized as part of the purchase consideration. The fair value of the purchase consideration is then allocated based on the relative fair value of the assets. The estimates of the fair value of the purchase consideration and the fair value of the assets acquired is consistent with the techniques used in a business combination.
Investments in Equity Method Investees
If it is determined that we do not have a controlling interest in a joint venture through our financial interest in a VIE or through our voting interest in a VOE and we have the ability to provide significant influence, the equity method of accounting is used. Under this method, the investment, originally recorded at cost, is adjusted to recognize our share of net earnings or losses of the affiliate as they occur, with losses limited to the extent of our investment in, advances to, and commitments to the investee. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded a loss of $0 and $309, respectively, related to investments in equity method investees.
Distributions received from an equity method investee are recognized as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment. If distributions are received from an equity method investee that would reduce the carrying amount of an equity method investment below zero, the Company evaluates the facts and circumstances of the distributions to determine the appropriate accounting for the excess distribution, including an evaluation of the source of the proceeds and implicit or explicit commitments to fund the equity method investee. The excess distribution is either recorded as a gain from equity method investee, or in instances where the source of proceeds is from financing activities or the Company has a significant commitment to fund the investee, the excess distribution would result in an equity method liability and the Company would continue to record its share of the equity method investee’s earnings and losses. When the Company does not have a significant requirement to contribute additional capital over and above the original capital commitment and the carrying value of the investment in the unconsolidated venture is reduced to zero, the Company discontinues applying the equity method of accounting unless the venture has an expectation of an imminent return to profitability. If the venture subsequently reports net income, the equity method of accounting is resumed only after the Company’s share of that net income equals the share of net losses or distributions not recognized during the period the equity method was suspended. The Company has elected to classify distributions from equity method investees under the cumulative-earnings approach. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded a gain from equity method investee of $0 and $42, respectively, related to a distribution that would have reduced the carrying value of the investment below zero.

The Company evaluates its investments in equity method investees for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that there may be an other-than-temporary decline in value. To do so, the Company calculates the estimated fair value of the investment using various valuation techniques, including, but not limited to, discounted cash flow models, the Company’s intent and ability to retain its investment in the entity, the financial condition and long-term prospects of the entity, and the expected term of the investment. If the Company determined any decline in value is other-than-temporary, the Company recognizes an impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of its investment to fair value. As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company determined that there was no impairment of its investments in equity method investees.
Accounting for Long-Lived Assets and Impairment of Real Estate Owned
The Company reviews its real estate portfolio on a quarterly basis to ascertain if there are any indicators of impairment to the value of any of its real estate assets, including deferred costs and intangibles, to determine if there is any need for an impairment charge. In reviewing the portfolio, the Company examines one or more of the following: the type of asset, the current financial statements or other available financial information of the asset, and the economic situation in the area in which the asset is located. For each real estate asset owned for which indicators of impairment exist, management performs a recoverability test by comparing the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the asset to its carrying amount. If the aggregate undiscounted cash flows are less than the asset’s carrying amount, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the estimated fair value is less than the asset’s carrying amount. The estimated fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model of the expected future cash flows through the useful life of the property. The analysis includes an estimate of the future cash flows that are expected to result from the real estate investment’s use and eventual disposition. These cash flows consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors.
As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company determined that there was no impairment of long-lived assets.
Real Estate Held for Sale
The Company classifies real estate investment as being held for sale when management commits to a plan to sell the asset, the asset is available for immediate sale, an active program to locate a buyer has been initiated, the sale is highly probable to occur within one year, and it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made. When a real estate investment is classified as held for sale, depreciation of the asset is discontinued and the asset is carried at the lower of its carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell. As of June 30, 2023, no real estate investments were classified as held for sale. As of June 30, 2022, the Company determined that the Avon Place Apartments, a Class B, garden-style apartment community in Avon, Connecticut (the “Avon Property”), should be classified as held for sale at its carrying value in the amount of $22,312. The related mortgage net of debt issuance costs of $22,028 was also classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2022. The Avon Property was sold on September 30, 2022 and proceeds from sale were $32,663 resulting in a gain in the amount of $10,351.

Restricted Cash and Escrows
In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash (“ASU 2016-18”), which clarifies the presentation requirements of restricted cash within the statement of cash flows. The standard requires that changes in restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents during the period be included in the beginning and ending cash and cash equivalents balance reconciliation on the statement of cash flows. Restricted cash consists of cash escrowed under the operating agreements and mortgage agreements for debt service, real estate taxes, property insurance, and capital improvements and other restricted deposits.
The adoption of this standard results in amounts detailed below that are reported as escrows and deposits on the consolidated balance sheets to be included in cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated statements of cash flows.
The following are the amounts reported on the consolidated balance sheets that are included in cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated statements of cash flows:
| | June 30, 2023 | | | December 31, 2022 | |
| | | | | | |
Cash and cash equivalents | | $ | 6,256 | | | $ | 10,069 | |

| | | | | | | | |
Total cash and cash equivalents | | $ | 14,019 | | | $ | 14,786 | |
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of a tenant to make required rent payments. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was $246 and $682, respectively, in the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company records bad debt expense in real estate operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
Depreciation
Depreciation of assets is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. Depreciation of buildings is computed on the straight-line method over an estimated useful life ranging from 30 to 49 years. Site improvements and certain building improvements are depreciated on the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 10 to 15 years, and depreciation of furniture, fixtures and equipment is computed on the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 5 to 9 years. Improvements are capitalized, while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation expense amounted to $2,139 and $2,297 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Advertising Costs
The Company’s policy is to expense advertising costs when incurred. Such costs incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $114 and $87, respectively.

Deferred Financing Costs and Mortgage Premium
Mortgage costs and premium are deferred and amortized using the straight-line method which management does not believe is materially different than the effective interest rate method, over the terms of the respective debt obligations. The Company recognizes a debt discount or premium in connection with mortgages assumed at fair value in accordance with ASC 805. At June 30, 2023, deferred financing costs amounted to $1,008, net of accumulated amortization of $966. At December 31, 2022, deferred financing costs amounted to $928, net of accumulated amortization of $721. At June 30, 2023, mortgage premium amounted to $849, net of accumulated amortization of $264. At December 31, 2022, mortgage premium amounted to $908, net of accumulated amortization of $205. The Company presents unamortized deferred financing costs and mortgage premium as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability.
Fair Value
Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:
Level 1 — Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2 — Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
On a recurring basis, the Company measures its investment in marketable securities at fair value consisting of its investment in exchange traded funds. The exchange traded funds are freely tradeable in active markets and fair value is based on the quoted market price for identical securities, which represents a Level 1 input and Level 1 measurement. The marketable securities are treated as trading securities with unrealized gains and losses from the change in fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company periodically will enter into interest rate cap agreements that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in order to limit interest rate risk on variable rate mortgages and are not used for trading purposes. The Company has determined that the total fair value of the interest rate caps at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $1,247 and $1,593, respectively, related to the Company’s joint ventures formed to acquire, renovate, own and operate a 222-unit, Class A apartment community in Austin, Texas (“Lotus Village”) and a 199-unit, Class B apartment community in Riverview, Florida (“Sherwood Oaks”), respectively. In determining the fair value of the interest rate cap, management uses the present value of expected cash flows based on market observable interest rate yield curve commensurate with the term of the instrument. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and that of the respective counterparty in the fair value measurement. The credit valuation adjustments utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by either the respective counterparty or the Company. However, management determined the impact on the credit valuation adjustments was not significant to the overall valuation of the interest rate caps as of June 30, 2023 or 2022. As a result, the fair value of the interest rate caps was considered to be based primarily using Level 2 inputs.

Fair Value Option
ASC 825, Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASC 825”), provides a fair value option election that allows companies to irrevocably elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for certain financial assets and liabilities. ASC 825 permits the fair value option election on an instrument by instrument basis at initial recognition. We have decided not to make this election.
New accounting pronouncements
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-02 (as amended), Leases (Topic 842), on January 1, 2022 (the “Adoption Date”). Additionally, the Company elected and applied the following practical expedients on the Adoption Date:
| ● | The package of practical expedients permitting the Company to not reassess (i) the lease classification of existing leases; (ii) whether existing and expired contracts are or contain leases; and (iii) initial direct costs for existing leases. |
Leases with commercial and residential tenants not classified as sales-type or direct financing leases are classified as operating leases. The Company accounted for its existing leases with commercial and residential tenants as operating leases. As lessor in commercial and residential lease arrangements, there were no accounting adjustments required.
There was no cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings required upon adoption of the new standard.
Note 3 – Real Estate Debt Investments
We believe the fair value of the debt investments approximates the carrying value of the debt investments as of June 30, 2023. We have invested in one debt-like investment.

Credit Quality Monitoring
The Company’s debt investments and preferred equity investments that earn interest based on debt-like terms are typically secured by senior liens on real estate properties, mortgage payments, mortgage loans, or interests in entities that have interests in real estate similar to the interests described above. The Company evaluates its debt investments at least quarterly and differentiates the relative credit quality principally based on: (i) whether the borrower is currently paying contractual debt service or guaranteed preferred equity payments in accordance with its contractual terms; and (ii) whether the Company believes the borrower will be able to perform under its contractual terms in the future, as well as the Company’s expectations as to the ultimate recovery of principal at maturity. The Company considered investments for which it expects to receive full payment of contractual principal and interest payments as “performing”. As of June 30, 2023, all investments are considered to be performing and no allowance for loan loss has been recorded. In the event that an investment is deemed other than performing, the Company will evaluate the instrument for any required impairment.
