United Realty Trust Acquires 86,360-Square-Foot Brooklyn-Based Property

New York, NY, April XX, 2013 – United Realty Trust Incorporated, led by Jacob Frydman and Eli Verschleiser, announced today that it has acquired Tilden House, a 117-unit residential property in Brooklyn, N.Y., through a joint venture with the seller. The purchase price was approximately $22.3 million.

Completed in 2007, Tilden House is a nine-story residential building, with 117 apartments, community facility space and indoor and outdoor parking, comprising approximately 86,360 rentable square feet located at 2520 Tilden Ave. in the East Flatbush area of Brooklyn, N.Y., an area characterized by urban residences, row houses and cottage homes along with primarily “mom and pop” retail.

Tilden House is leased to a community development corporation which has entered into a services agreement with the City of New York to provide transitional housing for families in need.

“Tilden House represents the typical investment profile for the first of our Dual Investment Strategies. It is a stabilized income-producing property with an inflation-protected underlying lease,” said Jacob Frydman, CEO and Chairman of United Realty Trust.

“We believe that with this acquisition, United Realty Trust has shown itself able to identify and acquire off-market transactions in its primary market area, and to structure these transactions is a way that we believe will benefit our investors,” said Eli Verschleiser, President of United Realty Trust.

United Realty Trust is offering up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock in its initial public offering. The first 5,000,000 shares are being offered at a price of $10.45 per share and the remaining 95,000,000 shares at $11.00 per share, in each case inclusive of applicable fees and commissions.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction.

Some statements in this release may constitute forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Actual results and trends could differ materially from those set forth in such statements due to the following risks: The failure to qualify or maintain the requirements to be taxed as a REIT would reduce the amount of income available for distribution and limit the Company’s ability to make distributions to its stockholders. No public market initially exists for the Company’s shares of common stock, and one may never exist for this or any other such type of real estate program. Securities are being offered on a best efforts basis. These are speculative securities and as such involve a high degree of risk. There are substantial conflicts among the Company and its sponsor, advisor, dealer manager, property manager and other affiliates. There is no assurance that the value of the real estate will be sufficient to return any portion of investors’ original capital. Operating results will be affected by economic and regulatory changes that have an adverse impact on the real estate market and the Company cannot assure you that there will be growth in the value of the properties.
