Target BRG Markets

Additional Partner Markets

BRG selects and continuously evaluates its target markets for strong rentership characteristics which include areas with:

▪ High populations of a young, educated workforce with a high density of “renters by choice”

▪ Jobs of the future such as health care and technology that lead to employment growth

▪ Growing economic base driven by the presence of technology centers, major colleges and universities, health care, trade, next-generation manufacturing, government industries, and modern transportation facilities and networks

▪ Areas with abundant recreation, leisure, cultural, and entertainment options which foster population retention and growth

BRG focuses on demographically attractive growth markets which it defines as markets characterized by growing population and job growth. Employment growth is highly correlated with apartment demand; therefore, BRG believes that selecting markets with job growth significantly above the national average will provide high potential for increase rental demand leading to revenue growth and attractive risk-adjusted returns.

Why Invest in Apartments?

The Millennial Generation, at more than 86 million people, already exceeding that of the Baby Boomers at similar ages, is expected to increase over the next 20 years as immigration (typically of young adults) continues to pick up.

Although they are only now beginning to live on their own, Millennials will likely form even more households than the gen-Xers and even the Baby Boomers. The chart below illustrates the potential for household growth among Millennials.

A new study concludes that the U.S. will need 4.6 million apartment units by 2030. Current supply trends indicate that just over three million units will be delivered during that time, leading to an imbalance.

Robust apartment market conditions are expected to continue nationally with Axiometrics projecting an average occupancy rate of 94.9% and effective rent growth of 14.6% through 2022.

These forward- looking statements are based on BRG’s beliefs, assumptions and expectations of its future performance, taking into account all information currently available to us. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. These beliefs, assumptions and expectations can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known to BRG, and we cannot guarantee that we will achieve any or all of these expectations.

▪ There is limited liquidity and no public market for the Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock or Warrants and we do not intend to list them on a securities exchange.

▪ If our Class A common stock is no longer listed on the NYSE American or another national securities exchange, we would be required to terminate the offering and could result in our raising gross proceeds substantially less than if the maximum offering is sold.

▪ Dividends have been paid on our Class A common stock since May 5, 2014 through the quarter ended June 30, 2018. Through December 31, 2017, such dividends have been declared and paid on a monthly basis at a quarterly rate of $0.29 per share. Effective January 1, 2018, the common stock dividend was reduced to a quarterly rate of $0.1625 per share. From May 5, 2014 through June 30, 2018, we have paid total common stock dividends, including dividends reinvested through our dividend reinvestment plan, of $88,768,415, of which on a cumulative basis, approximately 17% were paid from sources other than cash flows from operations, including from the proceeds of our equity offerings.

▪ Distributions paid from sources other than cash flow or funds from operations may constitute a return of capital and reduce investor returns. Rates of distribution to you may not be indicative of our operating results.

▪ We make no guarantee that we will make distributions.

▪ We established the offering price for the Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock and Warrants pursuant to negotiations among us and our affiliated dealer manager. As a result, the actual value of your investment may be substantially less than what you pay.

▪ Our management has broad discretion over the use of proceeds

from the offering of the Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock and Warrants, and investors will not be able to evaluate the economic or other merits of our investments made with such proceeds prior to our making them.

▪ There are substantial conflicts of interest between us and our affiliates, including conflicts arising out of allocation of personnel to our activities, allocation of investment opportunities between us and investment vehicles of our affiliates, the purchase or sale of apartment properties, that might result in investment decisions that are not in the best interests of our stockholders.

▪ Upon the sale of any individual property, holders of Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock generally do not have a priority over holders of our common stock regarding return of capital.

▪ Our charter contains various restrictions on the ownership and transfer of our securities.

▪ After two years from the date of original issuance, we will be able to redeem the outstanding shares of Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock, without your consent, at 100% of the Stated Value per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends.

▪ If we experience significant liquidity problems, we may not be able to fulfill our obligation to redeem Series B preferred stock when submitted for redemption.

▪ Maintenance of our exemption from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and our REIT qualification impose significant limitations on our operations.

▪ Holders of the Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock will have no voting rights or control over changes in our policies and operations. Our board of directors may approve changes to our policies without your approval.

▪ Our qualification as a REIT depends upon our satisfaction of numerous regulatory limitations and qualifications.

▪ We may fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT, which would result in higher taxes for us and reduced cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
