and CEO. “We continue to execute on our pipeline and business plan of investing in the Sun Belt states. We invested in four
communities totaling 1,248 units since the end of the second quarter and expect to close on an additional four investments before
year end.”
Third Quarter 2015 Acquisition
Activity
| • | On August 19, 2015, the Company acquired a 100% interest in a Class
A, 2012 construction, 322-unit apartment community located in Charlotte, North Carolina, known as Ashton I Apartments. The total
purchase price of the property was approximately $45 million. |
| • | On August 20, 2015, the Company acquired a 95% interest in a Class
A, 2008 construction, 252-unit apartment community located in Orlando, Florida, known as ARIUM Palms at World Gateway Apartments.
The total purchase price of the property was approximately $37 million. |
Pending Investments at
September 30, 2015
| • | On October 29, 2015, the Company acquired a 95% interest in two new-built
Class A assets totaling 674-units in the Dallas Fort Worth Metro. The total purchase price of the properties was approximately
$100 million with the Company investing approximately $33 million. The Company’s underwriting assumes a stabilized cap rate
of approximately 5.70% versus market cap rates for similar quality product in the 5.0% - 5.3% range. |
| • | The Company is under contract to purchase the second phase (“Ashton
II”) of the Ashton Reserve at Northlake. Ashton II is a 151-unit, new, Class A apartment community adjacent to Ashton I in
Charlotte, North Carolina. This transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2015 following lease-up. The Company
is investing approximately $8 million for a 93.4% ownership interest with the property being financed with a loan of approximately
$15.3 million. The Company underwriting assumes cap rates of 5.8% on Phase II, which is 50 to 70 basis points better than market. |
| • | The Company has an agreement which entitles the Company to invest
in a 283-unit to-be-built Class A apartment community located in Charlotte, North Carolina. This investment of approximately
$10 million is structured to provide us with a 15% current return on investment with an option to convert into majority ownership
of the underlying property upon stabilization. |
| • | The Company has an agreement which entitles the Company to invest
in a 245-unit to-be-built Class A apartment community located in Raleigh, North Carolina. This investment of approximately
$17 million is structured to provide us with a 15% current return on investment with an option to convert into majority ownership
of the underlying property upon stabilization. |
| • | The Company has an agreement which entitles the Company to invest
in a 300-unit to-be-built Class A apartment community located in Garland, Texas, a suburb of the high-growth Dallas-Fort Worth
Metro market. This investment of approximately $9 million is structured to provide us with a 15% current return on investment
with an option to convert into majority ownership of the underlying property upon stabilization. |
Third Quarter 2015 Financial Results
AFFO for the third quarter of 2015 increased
by 238% to $4.4 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, as compared to $1.3 million, or $0.22 per share in the prior year period.
The increase in AFFO from the prior year period was driven primarily by increases in property NOI of $1.4 million, and in income
of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures of $1.7 million caused by expanding the size of our portfolio, offset by higher interest
expense of $0.4 million.
Net loss attributable to common stockholders
for the third quarter of 2015 improved to $0.6 million, as compared to a net loss of $2.1 million in the prior year period. The
decrease in the net loss for the 2015 third quarter was partially derived from increases in property NOI of $1.4 million, in income
of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures of $2.0 million, and decreases in acquisition expenses of $0.4 million, offset by
increases in interest expense of $0.4 million, in management fees of $0.7 million, in depreciation and amortization expense of
$0.8 million, and in the loss attributable to noncontrolling interest of $0.5 million.
Same Store Portfolio Performance
Same store NOI for the third quarter of
2015 increased by 8.7% from the same period in the prior year. There was a 6.1% increase in same store property revenues as compared
to the same prior year period, primarily attributable to a 4.9% increase in average rent per occupied unit and an additional 20
units at our Lansbrook property and flat average occupancy. Same store expenses increased 2.7% as a result of higher taxes driven
by rising assessed property values from municipalities.

Q4 2015 Outlook
For the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company
anticipates AFFO in the range of $0.12 to $0.13 per share, and $0.26 to $0.28 per share on a pro forma basis. For assumptions
underlying earnings guidance, please see p. 26 of Company’s Q3 2015 Earnings Supplement available under Investor Relations
on the Company’s website (www.bluerockresidential.com). Pro forma AFFO is used for illustrative purposes only, is
hypothetical and does not represent historical performance or management’s estimates or projections for future performance.
Dividend Details
On October 7, 2015, our board of directors
authorized, and we declared, monthly dividends for the fourth quarter of 2015 equal to a quarterly rate of $0.29 per share on our
Class A common stock and $0.29 per share on our Class B common stock, payable to the stockholders of record as of October 25, 2015,
November 25, 2015 and December 25, 2015, which will be paid in cash on November 5, 2015, December 5, 2015 and January 5, 2016,
respectively. Holders of OP and LTIP Units are entitled to receive "distribution equivalents" at the same time as dividends
are paid to holders of our Class A common stock.
The declared dividends equal a monthly
dividend on the Class A common stock and the Class B common stock as follows: $0.096666 per share for the dividend paid to stockholders
of record as of October 25, 2015, $0.096667 per share for the dividend paid to stockholders of record as of November 25, 2015,
and December 25, 2015. A portion of each dividend may constitute a return of capital for tax purposes. There is no assurance that
we will continue to declare dividends or at this rate.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The foregoing supplemental financial data
includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are helpful in understanding our business, as further described below.
Our definition and calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other REITs, and may, therefore, not
be comparable.
Funds from Operations and Adjusted
Funds from Operations
Funds from operations (“FFO”)
is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We consider FFO to be an
appropriate supplemental measure of our operating performance as it is based on a net income analysis of property portfolio performance
that excludes non-cash items such as depreciation. The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line
depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time.
Since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT, using
historical accounting for depreciation, could be less informative. We define FFO, consistent with the National Association of Real
Estate Investment Trusts, or (“NAREIT's”), definition, as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains
(or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable
real estate, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships
and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.
In addition to FFO, we use adjusted funds
from operations (“AFFO”). AFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's operating
performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. To calculate AFFO, we further adjust
FFO by adding back certain items that are not added to net income in NAREIT's definition of FFO, such as acquisition expenses,
equity based compensation expenses, and any other non-recurring or non-cash expenses, which are costs that do not relate to the
operating performance of our properties, and subtracting recurring capital expenditures (and when calculating the quarterly incentive
fee payable to our Manager only, we further adjust FFO to include any realized gains or losses on our real estate investments).
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 after adjustment for certain non-cash
items, such as depreciation and amortization expenses, and acquisition expenses and pursuit costs that are required by GAAP to
be expensed but 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 stockholders with an additional useful
measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. We also use AFFO for purposes of determining the quarterly
incentive fee, if any, payable to our Manager.
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.
We have acquired interests in ten additional
properties subsequent to June 30, 2014 and sold four properties that were owned during the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The
results presented in the table below are not directly comparable and should not be considered an indication of our future operating
performance (unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share and per share data).

amount includes our share of consolidated real estate-related depreciation and amortization of intangibles, less amounts attributable
to noncontrolling interests, and our similar estimated share of unconsolidated depreciation and amortization, which is included
in earnings of our unconsolidated real estate joint venture investments.
(2) Pro forma AFFO for the three months ended September
30, 2015 assumes the following pipeline transactions had occurred on July 1, 2015: (i) investment of approximately $21 million
in the acquisition of two Class A assets the Company has under contract in North Carolina, (ii) investment of approximately $14
million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset the Company has under binding LOI in a target Florida market; (iii)
investment of approximately $16 million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset our Sponsor entity has under binding
LOI in a target North Carolina market; (iv) investment of approximately $13 million in a Class A asset the Company has under contract
in Florida; and (v) investment of approximately $30 million in the acquisition of two Class A assets our Sponsor entity has under
LOI in Texas. The pro forma guidance is being presented solely for purposes of illustrating the potential impact of these pipeline
transactions as if they had occurred at July 1, 2015, based on information currently available to management. The Company is providing
no assurances that any of the above transactions will close, and the failure of any of these transactions to close would significantly
impact proforma guidance. The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing
reflected in the proforma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the proforma guidance shown above.
Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes,
Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA")
EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest,
income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We consider EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because
it eliminates depreciation, income taxes, interest and non-recurring items, which permits investors to view income from operations
unclouded by non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, the cost of debt or non-recurring items. Below is a reconciliation
of net income applicable to common stockholders to EBITDA (unaudited and dollars in thousands).

Recurring Capital Expenditures
We define recurring capital expenditures
as expenditures that are incurred at every property and exclude development, investment, revenue enhancing and non-recurring capital
expenditures.
Non-Recurring Capital Expenditures
We define non-recurring capital expenditures
as expenditures for significant projects that upgrade units or common areas and projects that are revenue enhancing.
Same Store Properties
Same store properties are conventional
multifamily residential apartments which were owned and operational for the entire periods presented, including each comparative
period.
Property Net Operating Income ("Property
NOI")
We believe that net operating income, or
NOI, is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses,
excluding depreciation and amortization and interest. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly,
our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent
from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same store and non-same store basis because
NOI measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property
operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as
an alternative measure of our financial performance. The following table reflects same store and non-same store contributions to
consolidated NOI together with a reconciliation of NOI to net loss as computed in accordance with GAAP for the periods presented

2015

of approximately 5.70% versus market cap rates for similar quality product in the 5.0% - 5.3% range. |

is investing approximately $8 million for a 93.4% ownership interest with the property being financed with a loan of approximately
$15.3 million. The Company underwriting assumes cap rates of 5.8% on Phase II, which is 50 to 70 basis points better than market. |

Third Quarter 2015 Financial Results
AFFO for the third quarter of 2015 increased
by 238% to $4.4 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, as compared to $1.3 million, or $0.22 per share in the prior year period.
The increase in AFFO from the prior year period was driven primarily by increases in property NOI of $1.4 million, and in income
of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures of $1.7 million caused by expanding the size of our portfolio, offset by higher interest
expense of $0.4 million.
Net loss attributable to common
stockholders for the third quarter of 2015 improved to $0.6 million, as compared to a net loss of $2.1 million in the prior year
period. The decrease in the net loss for the 2015 third quarter was partially derived from increases in property NOI of $1.4 million,
in income of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures of $2.0 million, and decreases in acquisition expenses of $0.4 million,
offset by increases in interest expense of $0.4 million, in management fees of $0.7 million, in depreciation and amortization expense
of $0.8 million, and in the loss attributable to noncontrolling interest of $0.5 million.
Same Store Portfolio Performance
Same store NOI for the third
quarter of 2015 increased by 8.7% from the same period in the prior year. There was a 6.1% increase in same store property revenues
as compared to the same prior year period, primarily attributable to a 4.9% increase in average rent per occupied unit and an additional
20 units at our Lansbrook property and flat average occupancy. Same store expenses increased 2.7% as a result of higher taxes driven
by rising assessed property values from municipalities.

Third Quarter Earnings |
Q4 2015 Outlook
For the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company
anticipates AFFO in the range of $0.12 to $0.13 per share, and $0.26 to $0.28 per share on a pro forma basis. For assumptions
underlying earnings guidance, please see p. 26 of Company’s Q3 2015 Earnings Supplement available under Investor Relations
on the Company’s website (www.bluerockresidential.com). Pro forma AFFO is used for illustrative purposes only, is
hypothetical and does not represent historical performance or management’s estimates or projections for future performance.
Dividend Details
On October 7, 2015, our board of directors
authorized, and we declared, monthly dividends for the fourth quarter of 2015 equal to a quarterly rate of $0.29 per share on our
Class A common stock and $0.29 per share on our Class B common stock, payable to the stockholders of record as of October 25, 2015,
November 25, 2015 and December 25, 2015, which will be paid in cash on November 5, 2015, December 5, 2015 and January 5, 2016,
respectively. Holders of OP and LTIP Units are entitled to receive "distribution equivalents" at the same time as dividends
are paid to holders of our Class A common stock.
The declared dividends equal a monthly
dividend on the Class A common stock and the Class B common stock as follows: $0.096666 per share for the dividend paid to stockholders
of record as of October 25, 2015, $0.096667 per share for the dividend paid to stockholders of record as of November 25, 2015,
and December 25, 2015. A portion of each dividend may constitute a return of capital for tax purposes. There is no assurance that
we will continue to declare dividends or at this rate.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The foregoing supplemental financial data
includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are helpful in understanding our business, as further described below.
Our definition and calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other REITs, and may, therefore, not
be comparable.
Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds
from Operations
Funds from operations (“FFO”)
is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We consider FFO to be an
appropriate supplemental measure of our operating performance as it is based on a net income analysis of property portfolio performance
that excludes non-cash items such as depreciation. The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line
depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time.
Since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT, using
historical accounting for depreciation, could be less informative. We define FFO, consistent with the National Association of Real
Estate Investment Trusts, or (“NAREIT's”), definition, as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains
(or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable
real estate, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships
and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.

Third Quarter Earnings |
In addition to FFO, we use adjusted funds
from operations (“AFFO”). AFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's operating
performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. To calculate AFFO, we further adjust
FFO by adding back certain items that are not added to net income in NAREIT's definition of FFO, such as acquisition expenses,
equity based compensation expenses, and any other non-recurring or non-cash expenses, which are costs that do not relate to the
operating performance of our properties, and subtracting recurring capital expenditures (and when calculating the quarterly incentive
fee payable to our Manager only, we further adjust FFO to include any realized gains or losses on our real estate investments).
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 after adjustment for certain non-cash
items, such as depreciation and amortization expenses, and acquisition expenses and pursuit costs that are required by GAAP to
be expensed but 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 stockholders with an additional useful
measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. We also use AFFO for purposes of determining the quarterly
incentive fee, if any, payable to our Manager.
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.
We have acquired interests in ten additional
properties subsequent to June 30, 2014 and sold four properties that were owned during the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The
results presented in the table below are not directly comparable and should not be considered an indication of our future operating
performance (unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share and per share data).

in the acquisition of two Class A assets the Company has under contract in North Carolina, (ii) investment of approximately $14
million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset the Company has under binding LOI in a target Florida market; (iii)
investment of approximately $16 million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset our Sponsor entity has under binding
LOI in a target North Carolina market; (iv) investment of approximately $13 million in a Class A asset the Company has under contract
in Florida; and (v) investment of approximately $30 million in the acquisition of two Class A assets our Sponsor entity has under
LOI in Texas. The pro forma guidance is being presented solely for purposes of illustrating the potential impact of these pipeline
transactions as if they had occurred at July 1, 2015, based on information currently available to management. The Company is providing
no assurances that any of the above transactions will close, and the failure of any of these transactions to close would significantly
impact proforma guidance. The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing
reflected in the proforma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the proforma guidance shown above.

Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes,
Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA")
EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest,
income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We consider EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because
it eliminates depreciation, income taxes, interest and non-recurring items, which permits investors to view income from operations
unclouded by non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, the cost of debt or non-recurring items. Below is a reconciliation
of net income applicable to common stockholders to EBITDA (unaudited and dollars in thousands).

expenditures.
Non-Recurring Capital Expenditures
We define non-recurring capital expenditures
as expenditures for significant projects that upgrade units or common areas and projects that are revenue enhancing.
Same Store Properties
Same store properties are conventional
multifamily residential apartments which were owned and operational for the entire periods presented, including each comparative

Property Net Operating Income ("Property
NOI")
We believe that net operating income, or
NOI, is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses,
excluding depreciation and amortization and interest. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly,
our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent
from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same store and non-same store basis because
NOI measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property
operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as
an alternative measure of our financial performance. The following table reflects same store and non-same store contributions to
consolidated NOI together with a reconciliation of NOI to net loss as computed in accordance with GAAP for the periods presented

(1) The real estate depreciation
and amortization amount includes our share of consolidated real estate-related depreciation and amortization of intangibles, less
amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests, and our similar estimated share of unconsolidated depreciation and amortization,
which is included in earnings of our unconsolidated real estate joint venture investments.
(2) See page 27 for the Company's
definitions of these non-GAAP measurements. Individual line items included in FFO and AFFO calculations include results from discontinued
operations where applicable.
(3) Total weighted average shares
for the quarter, including OP units of 282,759 was 20,464,415. AFFO related to the OP units is excluded from the calculation above.
When including both, AFFO attributable to OP units and 282,759 of OP units in the weighted average share count, in the above calculation,
AFFO is $0.22 per share.
(4) Pro forma AFFO for the three months ended September
30, 2015 assumes the following pipeline transactions had occurred on July 1, 2015: (i) investment of approximately $21 million
in the acquisition of two Class A assets the Company has under contract in North Carolina, (ii) investment of approximately $14
million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset the Company has under binding LOI in a target Florida market; (iii)
investment of approximately $16 million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset our Sponsor entity has under binding
LOI in a target North Carolina market; (iv) investment of approximately $13 million in a Class A asset the Company has under contract
in Florida; and (v) investment of approximately $30 million in the acquisition of two Class A assets our Sponsor entity has under
LOI in Texas. The pro forma guidance is being presented solely for purposes of illustrating the potential impact of these pipeline
transactions as if they had occurred at July 1, 2015, based on information currently available to management. The Company is providing
no assurances that any of the above transactions will close, and the failure of any of these transactions to close would significantly
impact proforma guidance. The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing
reflected in the proforma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the proforma guidance shown above.

(1) Revenue includes only property level revenues

line item.
(2) General and administrative expenses exclude non-cash
expenses, such as non-cash equity compensation.
(3) Represents estimated recapture of the Company's
pro-rata share of depreciation for AFFO purposes and excludes depreciation and amortization on forecasted acquisitions.
(4) Represents the Company's share of income from
unconsolidated subsidiaries including preferred investment income.
(5) Represents estimated net income/loss (excluding
non-cash equity compensation, gain on sale of real estate assets, acquisition costs and depreciation on forecasted acquisitions)
attributable to non-controlling interest of OP unit holders and joint venture partner interests.
(6) Estimate of the Company's pro-rata share of recurring
capital expenditures for AFFO purposes.
(7) Pro forma guidance assumes the following
pipeline transactions had occurred on October 1, 2015: (i) investment of approximately $33 million to acquire a 95% interest
in Sorrel Phillips Creek Ranch Apartments and The Sovereign Apartments in Texas which closed on October 29, 2015, (ii)
investment of approximately $8 million to acquire a Class A asset the Company has under contract in North Carolina, (iii)
investment of approximately $10 million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset the Company Sponsor has under
a pre-development cost share agreement, which contractually entitles us to invest, in a target North Carolina market; (iv)
investment of approximately $17 million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset the Company has under
a pre-development cost share agreement, which contractually entitles us to invest, in a target North Carolina market; (v)
investment of approximately $9 million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset our Company Sponsor has under
a pre-development cost share agreement, which contractually entitles us to invest, in a target Texas market. Proforma
guidance also assumes that $69.2 million of net proceeds from the October 2015 Preferred Stock Offering are invested 65% in
stabilized properties at a nominal 5.75% cap rate with interest expense at a rate of 3.75%, and 35% invested in convertible
preferred equity development assets. The pro forma guidance is being presented solely for purposes of illustrating the
potential impact of these pipeline transactions, as well as future investments to be made with funds we have available for
investment, as if they had occurred at October 1, 2015, based on information currently available to management and
assumptions management has made with respect to our future pipeline. The Company is providing no assurances that any of the
above transactions will close or that management will identify or acquire investments consistent with our pipeline
assumptions, and the failure to do so would significantly impact proforma guidance. The actual timing of these investments,
if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing reflected in the proforma guidance, and actual quarterly
results will differ significantly from the proforma guidance shown above. Investors should not rely on pro forma guidance as
a forecast of the actual performance of the Company.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures |
The foregoing supplemental financial data
includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are helpful in understanding our business, as further described below.
Our definition and calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other REITs, and may, therefore, not
be comparable.
Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds
from Operations
Funds from operations (“FFO”),
is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We consider FFO to be
an appropriate supplemental measure of our operating performance as it is based on a net income analysis of property portfolio
performance that excludes non-cash items such as depreciation. The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets
requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes
predictably over time. Since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, presentations of operating results
for a REIT, using historical accounting for depreciation, could be less informative. We define FFO, consistent with the National
Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or (“NAREIT's”), definition, as net income, computed in accordance with
GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, plus impairment
write-downs of depreciable real estate, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.
In addition to FFO, we use adjusted funds
from operations (“AFFO”). AFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's operating
performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. To calculate AFFO, we further adjust
FFO by adding back certain items that are not added to net income in NAREIT's definition of FFO, such as acquisition expenses,
equity based compensation expenses, and any other non-recurring or non-cash expenses, which are costs that do not relate to the
operating performance of our properties, and subtracting recurring capital expenditures (and when calculating the quarterly incentive
fee payable to our Manager only, we further adjust FFO to include any realized gains or losses on our real estate investments).
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 after adjustment for certain non-cash
items, such as depreciation and amortization expenses, and acquisition expenses and pursuit costs that are required by GAAP to
be expensed but 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 stockholders with an additional useful
measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. We also use AFFO for purposes of determining the quarterly
incentive fee, if any, payable to our Manager.
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.
We have acquired interests in ten additional
properties subsequent to June 30, 2014 and sold four properties that were owned during the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The
results presented in the table are not directly comparable and should not be considered an indication of our future
operating performance (unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share and per share data).
Recurring Capital Expenditures
We define recurring capital expenditures
as expenditures that are incurred at every property and exclude development, investment, revenue enhancing and non-recurring capital
expenditures.
Non-Recurring Capital Expenditures
We define non-recurring capital expenditures
as expenditures for significant projects that upgrade units or common areas and projects that are revenue enhancing.
Same Store Properties
Same store properties are conventional
multifamily residential apartments which were owned and operational for the entire periods presented.

Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and
Amortization ("EBITDA")
EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest,
income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We consider EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because
it eliminates depreciation, income taxes, interest and non-recurring items, which permits investors to view income from operations
unclouded by non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, the cost of debt or non-recurring items. Below is a reconciliation
of net (loss) income applicable to common shares to EBITDA.
