Inflation in the United States remained elevated throughout 2023 and 2024 and may continue to remain high in the future. While inflation has shown signs of moderating, it remains uncertain whether substantial inflation in the United States will be sustained over an extended period of time or have a significant effect on the United States or other economies. Rising inflation could have an adverse impact on our operating expenses as well as our general and administrative expenses. For example, it is possible that the impact of the rate of inflation may not be adequately offset by annual rent escalations or the resetting of rents from our renewal and re-leasing activities,

Current wording

Inflation in the United States accelerated rapidly in the first half of 2023 and remained elevated throughout 2024 and may continue to remain high in the future. While inflation has shown signs of moderating, it remains uncertain whether substantial inflation in the United States will be sustained over an extended period of time or have a significant effect on the United States or other economies. In addition, any tariffs imposed by the current administration or other countries may cause further inflationary pressures in the economy. Rising inflation could have an adverse impact on our operating expenses as well as our general and administrative expenses. For example, it is possible that the impact of the rate of inflation may not be adequately offset by annual rent escalations or the resetting of rents from our renewal and re-leasing activities, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Compensation costs and professional service fees are also subject to the impact of inflation and are expected to increase proportionately with increasing market prices for such services. Consequently, inflation may increase our general and administrative expenses over time and may adversely impact our results of operations and cash flows.

While the Federal Reserve has held rates steady between July 2023 and September 2024 and reduced interest rates by 50-basis points in September 2024, 25-basis points in November 2024 and 25-basis points in December 2024, there can be no assurances that interest rates will not rise again. Our exposure to increases in interest rates in the short term is limited to our variable-rate borrowings. As of December 31, 2024, we had interest rate caps and swaps which effectively limit our exposure to interest rate risk by providing a ceiling on the underlying floating interest rate for $155.6 million of our floating rate debt. However, the effect of inflation on interest rates could increase our financing costs over time, either through borrowings on floating-rate lines of credit or refinancing of our existing borrowings that may incur higher interest expenses related to the issuance of new debt.

Current wording

While the Federal Reserve reduced interest rates by an aggregate of 100-basis points during 2024 and by an aggregate of 75-basis points during 2025, there can be no assurances that interest rates will not rise again. Our exposure to increases in interest rates in the short term is limited to our variable-rate borrowings. As of December 31, 2025, we had interest rate caps and swaps which effectively limit our exposure to interest rate risk by providing a ceiling on the underlying floating interest rate for $100.7 million of our floating rate debt. However, the effect of inflation on interest rates could increase our financing costs over time, either through borrowings on floating-rate lines of credit or refinancing of our existing borrowings that may incur higher interest expenses related to the issuance of new debt.

We are employing a business model with a limited track record, which may make our business difficult to evaluate.

Current wording

An aspect of our business model has a limited track record, which may make our business difficult to evaluate.

Previous wording

Our business strategy involves purchasing, renovating, maintaining, and managing a large number of residential properties, including single-family properties, and leasing them to qualified residents. Until recently, the single-family rental business consisted primarily of private and individual investors in local markets and was managed individually or by small, non-institutional owners and property managers. Entry into this market by large, well-capitalized investors is a relatively recent trend, so few peer companies exist and none have yet established long-term track records that might assist us in predicting whether this aspect of our business model and investment strategy can be implemented and sustained over an extended period of time. It may be difficult for you to evaluate our potential future performance without the benefit of established long-term track records from companies implementing a similar business model. We may encounter unanticipated problems as we continue to refine our business model, which may adversely affect our results of operations and ability to make distributions to our stockholders and cause our stock price to decline significantly.

Various legislative and regulatory bodies have been focused on the shortage and increases in the cost of residential housing in the U.S. There has been vigorous and continuing political debate and discussion, in which we participate, with respect to residential housing laws and regulations, with particular focus on the single-family residential housing industry. Since late 2023, legislation has been introduced that could, if enacted, discourage or deter the purchase of single-family properties by entities owned or controlled by

Current wording

Various legislative and regulatory bodies have been focused on the shortage and increases in the cost of residential housing in the U.S. There has been vigorous and continuing political debate and discussion, in which we participate, with respect to residential housing laws and regulations, with particular focus on the single-family residential housing industry. On January 20, 2026, President Trump signed an executive order directing federal agencies to take steps to limit the purchase of single-family properties by “large institutional investors”. The executive order provides an exception for the type of build-to-rent communities that are a focus of our investment strategy, and does not impose an outright ban on the acquisition of single-family properties by institutional investors, nor does it compel the sale of existing portfolios. For these reasons, we currently do not anticipate the executive order, nor any resulting legislation or enforcement, to have a material impact on our business. However, the scope and impact of the executive order remains subject to further guidance from the current administration, and there can be no assurance that such guidance, and/or any future legislative or regulatory changes will not be proposed or enacted, including those governing the types of investments we are permitted to make, that could adversely affect our business and financial results.

In addition to general, regional, national, and international economic conditions, our operating performance will be impacted by the economic conditions in our markets. We base a substantial part of our business plan on our belief that property values and operating fundamentals for residential properties in our markets will continue to improve over the near to intermediate term. However, these markets have experienced substantial economic downturns in recent years and could experience similar or worse economic downturns in the future. Additionally, a significant outbreak of infectious disease in the human population or pandemic may result in a widespread health crisis adversely affecting the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn that could negatively affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. See “—Our business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows may be adversely affected by pandemics and outbreaks of infectious disease, which may include COVID-19.” We can provide no assurance as to the extent property values and operating fundamentals in these markets will improve, if at all. If the recent economic downturn in these markets returns or if we fail to accurately predict the timing of economic improvement in these markets, the value of our properties could decline and our ability to execute our business plan may be adversely affected to a greater extent than if we owned a real estate portfolio that was more geographically diversified, which could adversely affect our financial condition, operating results, and ability to make distributions to our stockholders and cause the value of our common stock to decline.

Certain of our competitors may be larger in certain of our markets and may have greater financial or other resources than we do. Some competitors may have a lower cost of funds and access to funding sources that may not be available to us. In addition, any potential competitor may have higher risk tolerances or different risk assessments and may not be subject to the operating constraints associated with maintaining qualification for taxation as a REIT, which could allow them to consider a wider variety of investments. Competition may result in fewer investments, higher prices, a broadly dispersed portfolio of properties that does not lend itself to efficiencies of concentration, acceptance of greater risk, lower yields and a narrower spread of yields over our financing costs. In addition, competition for desirable investments could delay the investment of our capital, which could adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows. As a result, there can be no assurance that we will be able to identify and finance investments that are consistent with our investment objectives or to achieve positive investment results, and our failure to accomplish any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on us and cause the value of our common stock to decline.

As of March 6, 2025, our executive officers beneficially owned interests representing approximately 24.6% of the total economic interest in our Class A common stock and Class C common stock on a fully diluted basis, where “on a fully diluted basis” assumes that all outstanding OP Units, C-OP Units (as defined in the Partnership Agreement), LTIP Units and C-LTIP Units (as defined in the Partnership Agreement), whether vested or unvested, in each case are ultimately settled for shares of our common stock. In addition, as of March 6, 2025, the aggregate voting power of our executive officers represented approximately 9.3% of the total voting power of our outstanding Class A common stock and Class C common stock. As a result of our executive officers’ significant ownership in our company, our executive officers will have significant influence over our affairs and could exercise such influence in a manner that is not in the best interests of our other stockholders, including with respect to matters submitted to our stockholders for approval such as the election of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets.

As of December 31, 2024, we had approximately $177 million of mortgages payable and revolving credit facilities outstanding that are indexed to SOFR, and our future variable rate debt may bear interest at a rate derived from SOFR. SOFR is a relatively new reference rate. The publication of SOFR began in April 2018, and, therefore, it has a very limited history. The future performance of SOFR cannot be predicted based on the limited historical performance. Since the initial publication of SOFR, changes in SOFR have, on occasion, been more volatile than changes in other benchmark or market rates, such as United States dollar LIBOR. Additionally, any successor rate to SOFR may not have the same characteristics as SOFR or LIBOR. As a result, the amount of interest we may pay on future variable rate debt indexed to SOFR is difficult to predict.

Our Manager will be obligated to supply us with substantially all of our senior management team, including our chief executive officer, president, chief accounting officer and chief operating officer. Subject to investment, leverage and other guidelines or policies adopted by our Board, our Manager will have significant discretion regarding the implementation of our investment and operating policies and strategies. Accordingly, we believe that our success will depend significantly upon the experience, skill, resources, relationships and contacts of the senior officers and key personnel of our Manager and its affiliates. In particular, our success depends to a significant degree upon the contributions of Messrs. Kamfar, Ruddy, MacDonald, Babb, Vohs, DiFranco and Emala, all of whom are senior officers of our Manager. We will not have employment agreements with any of these key personnel and do not have key man life insurance on any of them. If any of Messrs. Kamfar, Ruddy, MacDonald, Babb, Vohs, DiFranco and Emala were to cease their affiliation with us or our Manager, our Manager may be unable to find suitable replacements, and our operating results could suffer. We believe that our future success will depend, in large part, upon our Manager’s ability to hire and retain highly skilled managerial, operational and marketing personnel. Competition for highly skilled personnel is intense, and our Manager may be unsuccessful in attracting and retaining such skilled personnel. If we lose or are unable to obtain the services of highly skilled personnel, our ability to implement our investment strategies could be delayed or hindered, and the value of your investment may decline.

Any distribution that is treated as a return of capital will reduce the stockholder’s adjusted tax basis in the stockholder’s Series A Preferred Stock, and subsequent sales (including cash redemptions) of such stockholder’s Series A Preferred Stock will result in recognition of an increased taxable gain or reduced taxable loss due to the reduction in such adjusted tax basis.

As of December 31, 2024, we had issued and outstanding 4,628,681 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The issuance of additional preferred stock on parity with or senior to the Series A Preferred Stock or any other class or series of preferred stock would dilute the interests of the holders of shares of preferred stock of the applicable class or series, and any issuance of preferred stock senior to the Series A Preferred Stock or any other class or series of preferred stock, or any issuance of additional indebtedness, could affect our ability to pay dividends on, redeem or pay the liquidation preference on any or all of the foregoing class or series of preferred stock.

We intend to use the net proceeds from any offerings of the Series A Preferred Stock and/or the Series B Preferred Stock to fund future investments and for other general corporate and working capital purposes, but any such offerings will not be conditioned upon the closing of pending property investments and we will have broad discretion to determine alternative uses of proceeds.

Previous wording

We intend to use a portion of the net proceeds from any offerings of our Series A Preferred Stock to fund future investments and for other general corporate and working capital purposes. However, any such offerings will not be conditioned upon the closing of definitive agreements to acquire or invest in any properties. We will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from such offerings, and holders of our Series A Preferred Stock will not have the opportunity as part of their investment decision to assess whether the net proceeds are being used appropriately. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from such offerings, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use, and result in investments that are not accretive to our results from operations.

In causing our subsidiaries to obtain certain nonrecourse loans, we may provide standard carve-out guaranties. These guaranties are generally only applicable if and when the borrower directly, or indirectly through agreement with an affiliate, joint venture partner or other third party, voluntarily files a bankruptcy or similar liquidation or reorganization action or takes other actions that are fraudulent or improper (commonly referred to as “bad boy” guaranties). We also may enter into recourse guaranties with respect to future mortgages, or provide credit support to development projects through completion guaranties, which also could increase risk of repayment. In some circumstances, pursuant to guarantees to which we are a party or that we may enter into in the future, our obligations pursuant to such “bad boy” carve-out guaranties and other guaranties may be triggered by a Change of Control, because, among other things, such an event may result indirectly in a change of control of the applicable borrower. Because a Change of Control while any Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding also triggers a right of redemption for cash by the holders thereof, the effect of a Change of Control could negatively impact our liquidity and overall financial condition, and could negatively impact the ability of holders of shares of our Series A Preferred Stock to receive dividends or other amounts on their shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

Previous wording

Substantially all of the investments we presently hold and the investments we expect to acquire in the future are, and will be, illiquid. The illiquidity of our investments may make it difficult for us to obtain cash quickly if a need arises. If we are unable to obtain sufficient liquidity prior to a redemption date, we may be forced to, among other things, engage in a partial redemption or to delay a required redemption. If this were to occur, the market price of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock might be adversely affected, and stockholders entitled to a redemption payment may not receive payment.

Current wording

The Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock will bear a risk of early redemption by us.

Previous wording

We may voluntarily redeem some or all of the Series A Preferred Stock, for cash or equal value of shares of our Class A common stock, two years after the issuance date. Any such redemptions may occur at a time that is unfavorable to holders of such preferred stock. We may have an incentive to voluntarily redeem shares of Series A Preferred Stock, if market conditions allow us to issue other preferred stock or debt securities at an interest or distribution rate that is lower than the distribution rate on the applicable series of preferred stock. Given the potential for early redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock, holders of such shares may face an increased reinvestment risk, which is the risk that the return on an investment purchased with proceeds from the sale or redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock may be lower than the return previously obtained from the investment in such shares.

The trading price of the Class A common stock, for which the Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed, may be volatile and may expose investors to additional volatility risk.

Previous wording

Except in limited circumstances related to our ability to maintain our qualification as a REIT or a special optional redemption in connection with a Change of Control, Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed by us at our option, either in whole or in part, only on or after two years from the issuance date. Any decision we make at any time to propose a redemption of any such series of preferred stock will depend upon, among other things, our evaluation of our capital position and general market conditions at the time. It is likely that we would choose to exercise our optional redemption right only when prevailing interest rates have declined, which would adversely affect the ability of holders of shares of the applicable series of preferred stock to reinvest proceeds from the redemption in a comparable investment with an equal or greater yield to the yield on such series of preferred stock had their shares not been redeemed. In addition, there is no penalty or premium payable on redemption, and the market price of the shares of such series of preferred stock may not exceed the liquidation preference at the time the shares become redeemable for any reason.

Current wording

Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock will be subject to inflation risk.

Previous wording

Inflation is the reduction in the purchasing power of money resulting from the increase in the price of goods and services. Inflation risk is the risk that the inflation-adjusted, or “real,” value of an investment in preferred stock or the income from that investment will be worth less in the future. As inflation occurs, the real value of the Series A Preferred Stock and dividends payable on such shares decline.
