Exhibit 12.1 RATIOS OF EARNINGS AND "ADJUSTED" EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES AND COMBINED FIXED CHARGES AND PREFERRED SHARE DIVIDENDS The following table shows the ratio of earnings and "adjusted earnings" to fixed charges and combined fixed charges and preferred share dividends of Berkshire Income Realty, Inc. (the Company) , as adjusted assuming the offer was completed on June 30, 2002, and of Berkshire Income Realty Predecessor Group. See "Management 's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Berkshire Income Realty Predecessor Group" for a discussion of the entities that comprise Berkshire Income Realty Predecessor Group, which is deemed to be our predecessor for accounting purposes. You should read this financial data in conjunction with the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and the combined financial statements of Berkshire Income Realty Predecessor Group.

This financial data should be read in conjunction with unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed financial statement of the Company. (2) Assuming 25% of the Interests in the Mortgage Funds are tendered for Preferred Shares and certain other transactions, including changes in interest expense and participating note interest as if the refinancing of the properties and the payoff of the participating note, respectively, occurred at the beginning of the period presented and payment of preferred dividends on the Preferred shares, occurred as of January 1, 2001. This financial data should be read in conjunction with unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed financial statement of the Company. (3) The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was computed by dividing earnings by fixed charges. We defined "earnings" as income before minority interest and extraordinary items plus fixed charges. We define "fixed charges" as interest expense including amortization of deferred financing costs. (4) The ratio is less than "1" due to charges for participating note interest on the former Seasons of Laurel subordinate note payable which was paid off in July of 2001. (5) The ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred shares dividends was computed by dividing earnings by combined fixed charges and preferred share dividends. We define "earnings" and "fixed charges" as described in Note (3) above. We define "preferred share dividends" as the amount that would be required to cover preferred share dividends. (6) Historical ratios of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred shares dividends have not been presented since the historical presentation does not reflect payments for preferred shares dividends. (7) We are presenting the ratios of "adjusted " earnings to fixed charges and "adjusted " earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred dividends, for additional information. We do not consider these ratios more important than the ratios of earnings to fixed charges and earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred dividends. We consider "adjusted" earnings to be an alternative measure of performance of the Company and the Predecessor which provides potential investors with an understanding of the ability of the Company to pay fixed charges and preferred dividends. We define "adjusted" earnings as earnings as described in Note (3) above plus depreciation and advisory fees less capital expenditures. Advisory fees have been added back to earnings as such fees are subordinate to preferred dividends. Depreciation has been added back to earnings as it is a non cash charge. Capital expenditures have been deducted from earnings as they represent a cash charge not reflected in earnings. "Adjusted" earnings should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of financial performance or to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of liquidity and the items excluded from "adjusted" earnings are significant components in understanding and evaluating financial performance. The computation of "adjusted" earnings may not be comparable to similarly titled or other alternative performance measures, including funds from operations , presented by other companies. We believe that in order to facilitates a clear understanding of the combined historical results of the Predecessor and the pro forma results of the Company, "adjusted" earnings should be examined in connection with net income and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities in the combined financial statements and other information included in this Prospectus. A reconciliation between GAAP earnings and "adjusted" earnings for the historical results of the Berkshire Income Realty Predecessor Group and the pro forma results of the Company are as follows: The Company The Company The Predecessor Group -------------------------------------------------------------------- Pro Forma Pro Forma Historical Six months ended Six months ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, June 30, ------------------------- 2002 (a) 2002 (b) 2002 2001 -------------------------------------------------------------------- (Dollars in Thousands) Income from operations before adjustments for minority interests and extraordinary loss $2,841 $ 6,044 $ 2,943 $(2,970) Add: Interest expense 3,115 3,115 1,586 6,482 Depreciation expense 2,215 2,215 2,215 2,826 Advisory fees (subordinate) 305 305 Deduct: Capital expenditures (945) (945) (1,190) (701) -------------------------------------------------------------------- "Adjusted earnings" $7,531 $10,734 $ 5,554 $ 5,637 ==================================================================== Cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities (c) 6,098 478 Cash flow provided by (used in) investing activities (c) (1,285) 766 Cash flow provided by (used in) financing activities (c) (2,125) (5,274) The Company The Company ------------------------------ Pro Forma Pro Forma Year ended Year ended December 31, December 31, 2001 (a) 2001 (b) ------------------------------ Income from operations before adjustments for minority interests and extraordinary loss $ 5,716 $14,299 Add: Interest expense 6,347 6,347 Depreciation expense 5,603 5,603 Advisory fees (subordinate) 610 610 Deduct: Capital expenditures (732) (732) ------------------------------ "Adjusted earnings" $17,544 $26,127 ============================== Cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities (c) Cash flow provided by (used in) investing activities (c) Cash flow provided by (used in) financing activities (c) The Predecessor Group ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Historical Years Ended December 31, ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Income from operations before adjustments for minority interests and extraordinary loss $(3,179) $ (905) $ (595) $ (46) $(2,422) Add: Interest expense 12,273 8,217 6,840 5,600 6,814 Depreciation expense 4,751 5,011 5,700 6,017 6,197 Advisory fees (subordinate) Deduct: Capital expenditures (732) (2,959) (2,190) (2,534) (2,794) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "Adjusted earnings" $13,113 $ 9,364 $ 9,755 $ 9,037 $ 7,795 ====================================================================== Cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities (c) (6,008) 6,592 6,328 4,306 2,901 Cash flow provided by (used in) investing activities (c) (33,081) (24,032) (2,458) (1,646) (1,527) Cash flow provided by (used in) financing activities (c) 35,180 23,559 (3,349) (2,634) (1,030) - ------------------------------------------------------------- (a) Assuming 8.84% of the Interests in the Mortgage Funds are tendered for Preferred Shares.

(c) Pro forma information relating to cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities has not been included because the Company believes that the information would not be meaningful due to the number of assumptions required in order to calculate this information. (8) The ratio of "adjusted" earnings to fixed charges was computed by dividing "adjusted " earnings to fixed charges. We defined "adjusted " earnings as income before minority interest and extraordinary items less fixed charges , depreciation and subordinate advisory fees less capital expenditures, and "fixed charges" as interest expenses including amortization of deferred financing costs. (9) The ratio of "adjusted" earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred share dividends was computed by dividing "adjusted" earnings by combined fixed charges and preferred share dividends. We define "adjusted earnings" and "fixed charges" as described in Note (8) above. We defined "preferred share dividends" as the amount of income that would be required to cover preferred share dividends. (10) Historical ratios of "adjusted" earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred share dividends have not been presented since the historical presentation does not reflect payments for preferred shares dividends.
