About Bluerock Residential Growth REIT (“BRG”)

BRG is a publicly traded real estate investment trust (REIT) that acquires institutional quality, Class A apartment properties in growth markets across the United States. With over 15,600 units (operating and in development) and $2.34+ billion in property assets, BRG seeks to maximize returns through investments where we believe we can drive substantial growth in funds from operations and net asset value.There can be no assurance that any investment strategy will achieve its objectives, generate profits or avoid losses.

Investment Strategy

BRG invests primarily with members of its Network, which allows it to draw on the collective market knowledge of some of the nation’s leading private apartment owner/operators who may invest alongside BRG (generally < 20%) to create a better alignment of interest for BRG shareholders.

BRG Offers:

▪ A network with some of the largest, leading apartment operators in the nation with more than 157,000 apartment units under management

▪ Decades of experience and local market knowledge within BRG’s selected target markets

▪ Extensive operational infrastructure to deliver best-in-class execution across multiple markets without the cost and logistical burdens to BRG

Leveraging Network Members in High Growth 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?

A recent 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 95.2% and effective rent growth of 17.7% through Q2 2025.

Risk Factors

▪ There is limited liquidity and no public market for the Series T Redeemable Preferred Stock and BRG does not intend to list them on a securities exchange.

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

▪ 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 BRG’s operating results.

▪ BRG makes no guarantee that it will make distributions.

▪ BRG’s management has broad discretion over the use of proceeds from the offering of the Series T Redeemable Preferred Stock, and investors will not be able to evaluate the economic or other merits of BRG’s investments made with such proceeds prior to BRG making them.

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

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

▪ BRG’s charter contains various restrictions on the ownership and transfer of BRG’s securities.

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

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

▪ Holders of the Series T Redeemable Preferred Stock will have no voting rights or control over changes in BRG’s policies and operations. BRG’s board of directors may approve changes to BRG’s policies without your approval.

▪ BRG’s qualification as a REIT depends upon BRG’s satisfaction of numerous regulatory limitations and qualifications.

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