Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Supplement shall have the same meanings as in the Prospectus.
The purposes of this Supplement are as follows:
| • | to disclose the acquisition of a retail portfolio through a joint venture; |
| • | to disclose the transaction price for each class of our common stock as of November 1, 2022; |
| • | to disclose the calculation of our September 30, 2022 net asset value (“NAV”) per share for each class of our common stock; |

Acquisition of Retail Portfolio
In September 2022, we acquired a grocery-anchored retail portfolio consisting of five properties located in various markets throughout Florida through a joint venture, of which we own 95%. The joint venture’s purchase price for the portfolio was $137.9 million, which includes the assumption of mortgages totaling $69.7 million. The 500,000 square foot portfolio is 98% leased and each property is anchored by a dominant regional grocer, which occupies 45% of the portfolio’s gross leasable area.
November 1, 2022 Transaction Price
The transaction price for each share class of our common stock for subscriptions accepted as of November 1, 2022 (and repurchases as of October 31, 2022) is as follows:
| Transaction Price (per share) | ||||
Class T | $ | 13.06 | ||
Class S | $ | 12.92 | ||
Class D | $ | 13.09 | ||
Class I | $ | 13.04 | ||
The transaction price for each of our Class T, Class S, Class D and Class I shares is equal to such class’s NAV per share as of September 30, 2022. A detailed presentation of the NAV per share is set forth below.
The purchase price of our common stock for each share class equals the transaction price of such class, plus applicable upfront selling commissions and dealer manager fees.
September 30, 2022 NAV Per Share
We calculate NAV per share in accordance with the valuation guidelines that have been approved by our board of directors. Our NAV per share, which is updated as of the last calendar day of each month, is posted on our
VGN-NREIT-1022P
website at www.nuveenglobalreit.com. Please refer to “Net Asset Value Calculation and Valuation Guidelines” in the Prospectus for information on how our NAV is determined. The Advisor is ultimately responsible for determining our NAV. As of September 30, 2022, our properties have been appraised in accordance with our valuation guidelines and such appraisals were prepared by our independent valuation advisor.
The following table provides a breakdown of the major components of our NAV as of September 30, 2022 ($ and shares in thousands):

As of September 30, 2022, we have accrued under GAAP approximately $44.6 million of stockholder servicing fees payable to the Dealer Manager related to the Class T, Class S and Class D shares sold. |

Set forth below are the weighted averages of the key assumptions in the discounted cash flow methodology used in the September 30, 2022 valuations, based on property types. Once we have appraisals for more than one retail property, we will include the key assumptions for such property type.
| Property Type | Discount Rate | Exit Capitalization Rate | ||||||
Industrial | 5.88 | % | 4.63 | % | ||||
Multifamily | 6.36 | 4.39 | ||||||
Office | 6.87 | 6.27 | ||||||
Healthcare | 7.21 | 6.06 | ||||||
Self-Storage | 7.35 | 4.85 | ||||||
Single-Family Housing | 6.91 | 5.10 | ||||||
These assumptions are determined by our independent valuation advisor. A change in these assumptions would impact the calculation of the value of our property investments. For example, assuming all other factors remain unchanged, the changes listed below would result in the following effects on our investment values:
| Input | Hypothetical Change | Industrial Investment Values | Multifamily Investment Values | Office Investment Values | Healthcare Investment Values | Self- Storage Investment Values | Single- Family Housing Investment Values | |||||||||||||||||||
Discount Rate | 0.25% decrease | 2.14 | % | 2.03 | % | 2.00 | % | 2.04 | % | 1.92 | % | 1.79 | % | |||||||||||||
