Current report

We own and operate residential real estate assets that generate rental and other property-related income through the leasing of residential units to a diverse base of tenants. We view our residential real estate assets as two reportable segments, consisting of (i) scattered single-family homes, and (ii) residential communities. Our Chief Operating Decision Makers, which are our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Investment Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not distinguish or group operations on a geographic, tenant or other basis when assessing the financial performance of our portfolio of properties/investments.

Current report

Scattered single-family homes segment includes the acquisition, ownership, management, and renovation of scattered single-family homes, which are, generally, detached homes with no onsite property management.

Current report

Residential communities segment includes the acquisition, ownership, management, renovation, construction, and development of residential communities, which include both detached single-family home communities and attached unit communities such as apartments, townhouses, and duplexes. Each residential community is, generally, located on a single, contiguous land parcel and has amenities including clubhouses, gyms, pools and common areas. In addition, these residential communities typically have onsite property management.

Our loan investment in Wayford at Pringle was paid off in full in the aggregate amount of $23.0 million, which included principal investment of $22.3 million and accrued interest of $0.7 million.

Current report

Our preferred equity investment activity was as follows: (i) we increased our original capital commitment for preferred equity interests in Wayford at Innovation Park by $2.0 million, increasing our total investment to $15.4 million, and (ii) as of March 31, 2025, we had funded $11.8 million of our $26.9 million aggregate commitment to fund capital for preferred equity interests in Canvas at Wildwood, Indigo Cove and River Ford.

Current report

On February 6, 2025, we implemented a new Series A Preferred Stock Redemption Safeguard Policy (the “Policy”) with respect to our Series A Preferred Stock. The Policy is applicable in the event of any redemption of shares of Series A Preferred Stock in shares of our Class A common stock rather than in cash (each, a “Preferred Redemption in common stock”). The Policy provides that if, within 10 business days of any such Preferred Redemption in common stock, any such shares of Class A common stock are sold at a loss (i.e. a lower price than the Aggregate Redemption Value), the holder can apply to us for a cash payment to the holder in an amount equal to the difference between (i) the Aggregate Redemption Value of the Class A common stock so issued, and (ii) the Aggregate Sale Price at which such shares of Class A common stock were sold, subject to certain conditions and requirements as set forth in the Policy. The Policy applies both retroactively, and on a go-forward basis, to holders of our Series A Preferred Stock.

Current report

Interest income from loan investments amounted to $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to $0.4 million for the same prior year period due to (i) an increase in the outstanding balance of one loan investment, which was fully paid off in the first quarter 2025 and (ii) an increase in the return on a second loan investment. These increases in interest income were partially offset by the full payoff of a third loan investment in the third quarter of 2024.

Current report

Income tax expense amounted to income of $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to zero for the same prior year period. The 2025 expense primarily relates to Amira at Westly and two preferred equity investments.

Current report

In addition, in October 2024, we launched a program to sponsor and raise capital through private placement offerings of Delaware statutory trusts (each, a “DST”) holding residential properties (collectively, the “DST Program”). We expect that the DST Program will give us the opportunity to expand and diversify our capital raise strategies by offering what we believe to be an attractive investment product for investors that may be seeking replacement properties to complete like-kind exchange transactions and create future pipeline acquisition opportunities. In conjunction with the DST Program, our Operating Partnership has issued certain non-interest bearing demand notes in relation to its role as the master tenant (the “Master Tenant”) under certain master leases (the “Master Leases”) related to the DST Program (the “Demand Notes”), which could be called upon if the net operating cash flow is insufficient to pay the rent required under the Master Leases (subject to limited deferral rights) or satisfy its other obligations under the Master Leases. As compensation for the Operating Partnership’s obligations under the Master Leases, we will share in the rent paid by the tenants of the underlying properties in accordance with the waterfall set forth in the applicable Master Lease. As of March 31, 2025, we had one offering in our DST Program and had raised net offering proceeds of $29.2 million, issued a demand note of $0.7 million, and had $102.8 million in total net real estate investments associated with the DST Program.

Current report

In conjunction with sponsoring of the DST Program, our Operating Partnership is granted an option to acquire DST Interests from the DST Program’s beneficial owners at a later date for an aggregate value equal to such beneficial owner’s pro rata share of the appraised value of the properties, as determined by an independent appraisal firm, less any indebtedness encumbering such beneficial owner’s DST Interest or the beneficial owner’s pro rata share of any indebtedness encumbering the properties, which will be assumed or paid off by our Operating Partnership.

Previous report

On March 25, 2024, we, through a 95% owned joint venture entity, acquired a 294-unit single-family residential community located in Houston, Texas known as Villas at Huffmeister. The purchase price of $41.2 million was funded with a $24.3 million senior loan assumption secured by Villas at Huffmeister, along with cash of $18.1 million that we funded, inclusive of certain adjustments typical in such real estate transactions.

Previous report

On June 27, 2024, we entered into a joint venture agreement with an unaffiliated third party (the “Indigo JV”) to develop approximately 82 build-to-rent, single-family residential units in Bluffton, South Carolina. We made a commitment to invest $5.3 million for preferred equity interests in the Indigo JV, of which $3.0 million had been funded as of September 30, 2024. We earn an accrued return on our outstanding capital contributions at a rate of 17.0% per annum compounded monthly, subject to a minimum return, with preferred return payments commencing in December 2025 contingent upon the property generating cash flows in excess of operating costs.

Previous report

On July 31, 2024, we acquired a 200-unit single-family residential community located in Jacksonville, Florida known as Avenue at Timberlin Park. We have a full ownership interest in the community, and the purchase price of $33.8 million was funded with a $23.7 million senior loan secured by Avenue at Timberlin Park, along with cash of $12.9 million that we funded, inclusive of certain adjustments typical in such real estate transactions.

Previous report

Prior to the sale of the property, and to effectuate a tax-deferred exchange under Section 1031 of the Code, we purchased our joint venture partner’s interest in Navigator Villas for $2.9 million, inclusive of estimated post-close adjustments. On August 7, 2024, we closed on the sale of Navigator Villas located in Pasco, Washington for a sale price of $36.4 million, subject to certain prorations and adjustments typical in such real estate transactions. After deductions for the payoff of existing mortgage indebtedness encumbering the property in the amount of $19.5 million, the purchase price of the joint venture partner’s interest, the payment of early extinguishment of debt costs, and closing costs and fees, the sale of Navigator Villas generated net proceeds of approximately $12.7 million and a gain on sale of approximately $10.0 million. We recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.1 million related to the sale.

In November 2023, we announced the payment of additional contingent special daily dividends with respect to our Series A Preferred Stock. This dividend was aggregated with the regular monthly dividend so as to effect a dividend rate of two percent over the average 10-Year Daily Treasury Par Yield Curve Rate with a floor of 6% annually, calculated and paid monthly. Commencing in November 2023, the Series A Preferred Stock additional contingent special dividend was declared for each month for which the Board declared the regular monthly dividend of $0.125 per outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock. In May 2024, we announced the payment of an enhanced special dividend replacing the additional contingent special daily dividend. The enhanced special dividend is aggregated with the regular monthly dividend so as to effect a dividend rate of the average one-month Term SOFR rate plus two percent, subject to a 6.5% minimum and an 8.5% maximum annual rate, calculated and paid monthly. Commencing in May 2024, the Series A Preferred enhanced special dividend was declared for each month for which the Board declared the regular monthly dividend of $0.125 per outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock.

Previous report

Property operating expensesincreased $3.2 million, or 23%, to $17.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $14.2 million for the same prior year period. The increase was primarily due to: (i) the acquisition of 294 units at Villas at Huffmeister during the first quarter 2024 and 200 units at Avenue at Timberlin Park during the third quarter 2024, and (ii) an increase in turnover expenses subsequent to initial renovation completed in previous years. The increase was partially offset by the sale of 176 units at Navigator Villas and 104 single-family units since January 1, 2023. Property operating expenses consist of controllable (payroll, repairs and maintenance, turnover, administrative, advertising, and utilities) and non-controllable (real estate taxes and insurance) expenses. Controllable expenses were $9.2 million and $6.8 million, and non-controllable expenses were $8.2 million and $7.4 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Previous report

General and administrative expenses amounted to $7.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $5.5 million for the same prior year period.

The expense reimbursement to our Manager also included a $2.2 million reimbursement for accounting and legal services. Prior to the fourth quarter 2023, the Manager elected to not seek reimbursement for legal and accounting services during our first year of operations.

Previous report

Other income and expense amounted to income of $8.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to income of $2.1 million for the same prior year period. This was due to a $10.3 million increase in gain on sales of real estate investments and a $2.2 million increase in interest income from our short-term cash investments.

Previous wording

We own and operate high-quality single-family properties located in attractive markets with a focus on the knowledge-economy and high-quality of life growth markets of the Sunbelt and Western United States. Our principal objective is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns on investments where we believe we can drive growth in funds from operations and net asset value by acquiring pre-existing single-family residential units, developing build-to-rent communities, and through Value-Add renovations. Our Value-Add strategy focuses on repositioning lower-quality, less current assets to drive rent growth and expand margins to increase net operating income and maximize our return on investment.

Previous wording

While inflationary pressures have shown signs of moderation, including a 50-basis point reduction in interest rates by the Federal Reserve in September 2024, we continue to monitor inflation and interest rates and resulting economic changes in credit and capital markets. Inflation and its related impacts, including increased prices for services and goods and higher interest rates and wages, and any policy interventions by the U.S. government, could negatively impact our residents’ ability to pay rents and our results of operations. Substantially all our leases are for a term of one year or less, which we believe mitigates our exposure to inflation, by permitting us to set rents commensurate with inflation (subject to rent regulations to the extent they apply and assuming our current or prospective residents will accept and can pay commensurate increased rents, of which there can be no assurance). Inflation could outpace any increases in rent and adversely affect us. We may not be able to mitigate the effects of inflation and related impacts, and the duration and extent of any prolonged periods of inflation, and any such related adverse effects on our results of operations and financial condition are unknown at this time. Inflation may also cause increased volatility in financial markets, which could affect our ability to access the capital markets or impact the cost or timing at which we are able to do so. Inflation may also increase the costs to complete our development projects, including costs of materials, labor and services from third-party contractors and suppliers. Higher construction costs could adversely impact our investments in real estate assets and our expected yields on development projects.

Other weakened economic conditions, including job losses, high unemployment levels, stock market volatility, and uncertainty about the future, could adversely affect rental rates and occupancy levels. Unfavorable changes in economic conditions may have a material adverse impact on our cash flows and operating results.

Current wording

Other weakened economic conditions, including job losses, high unemployment levels, stock market volatility, and uncertainty about the future, could adversely affect rental rates and occupancy levels. In addition, any tariffs imposed by the current administration or other countries may cause further inflationary pressures in the economy, uncertainty and volatility of debt and equity markets, and a slowdown in the U.S. and global economies. The announced tariffs are likely to increase construction costs and further reduce already constrained new supply starts, which could adversely impact the timing of actual completion and/or stabilization of our build - to - rent communities, including potential delays due to supply shortages and labor shortages. Any of these factors could depress economic activity and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows, and our results of operations.

The increase was partially offset by the sale of Navigator Villas and single-family units in our portfolio since January 1, 2024.

Previous wording

Other income and expense amounted to income of $8.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to income of $0.2 million for the same prior year period. This was due to a $10.3 million increase in gain on sales of real estate investments and a $0.6 million increase in interest income from our short-term cash investments. These income sources were partially offset by a $1.7 million net increase in interest expense primarily attributable to a decrease in the fair value of the interest rate caps and swaps and an increase in the outstanding debt to $231.8 million at September 30, 2024 as compared to $167.1 million at September 30, 2023 and a $1.0 million impairment on real estate.

The repurchase plan has a term of one year and may be discontinued at any time. The extent to which we repurchase shares of our Class A common stock under the repurchase plan, and the timing of any such repurchases, depends on a variety of factors including general business and market conditions and other corporate considerations. We expect to repurchase shares of our Class A common stock through open market transactions subject to market conditions, certain price limitations and other conditions established under the plan. Open market repurchases will be structured to occur in conformity with the method, timing, price and volume requirements of Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act.

In addition to restrictive covenants, our revolving credit facilities contain material financial covenants. At September 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants under our credit facilities.

We also have preferred equity interests in properties that are in various stages of development and in lease-up, and our preferred equity investments are structured to provide a current and/or accrued preferred return during all phases. Each joint venture in which we own a preferred equity interest is required to redeem our preferred equity interests, plus any accrued preferred return, based on a fixed maturity date, generally in relation to the property’s construction loan or mortgage loan maturity. Upon redemption of the preferred equity interests, our income, FFO, CFFO and cash flows could be reduced below the preferred returns currently being recognized. Alternatively, if the joint ventures do not redeem our preferred equity interest when required, our income, FFO, CFFO and cash flows could be reduced if the development project does not produce sufficient cash flow to pays its operating expenses, debt service and preferred return obligations. As we evaluate our capital position and capital allocation strategy, we may consider alternative means of financing our development loan and preferred equity investment activities at the subsidiary level.

Redevelopment and renovation costs are non-recurring capital expenditures for significant projects, such as preparing a unit for rental. The renovation work varies, but may include flooring, cabinetry, paint, plumbing, appliances and other items required to make the unit rent ready. Routine capital expenditures are necessary non-revenue generating improvements that extend the useful life of the property and that are less frequent in nature, such as roof repairs and concrete work/asphalt resurfacing. Normally recurring capital expenditures are necessary non-revenue generating improvements that occur on a regular ongoing basis, such as flooring and appliances.

CFFO makes certain adjustments to FFO, removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations such as acquisition and other transaction costs, non-cash interest, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, provision for (recovery of) credit losses, losses on extinguishment of debt and debt modification costs (includes prepayment penalties incurred and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs and fair market value adjustments of assumed debt), one-time weather-related costs, equity compensation expense, and preferred stock accretion. We believe that CFFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of certain items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to our core recurring property operations. As a result, we believe that CFFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and provides a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential.
