Independent Auditor's Report


To the Stockholders of
Resource Real Estate Opportunity REIT, Inc.


Report on the Statement
We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues and certain operating expenses (the “Statement”) of Addison Place, a multifamily community located in Johns Creek, Georgia (the “Property”) for the year ended December 31, 2013, and the related notes to the Statement.

Management’s Responsibility for the Statement
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the Statement in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the Statement that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Statement based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Statement is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the Statement. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Statement, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the Statement in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Statement.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion
In our opinion, the Statement referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and certain operating expenses described in Note 1 to the Statement of the Property for the year ended December 31, 2013, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis of Presentation

As described in Note 1 to the Statement, the accompanying Statement was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (for inclusion in Form 8-K/A of Resource Real Estate Opportunity REIT, Inc.) and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the Property’s revenues and expenses. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

NOTE 1. Basis of Presentation

On March 28, 2014, Resource Real Estate Opportunity REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) purchased Addison Place Apartments and Townhomes (“Addison Place”), a multifamily community located in Johns Creek, Georgia, from unaffiliated sellers.

The statements of revenues and certain operating expenses (the “Statements”) have been prepared for the purpose of complying with the provision of Article 3-14 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which require certain information with respect to real estate operations to be included with certain filings with the SEC. The Statements include the historical revenues and certain operating expenses of the Property, exclusive of interest income and interest expense, asset management fees, depreciation and amortization, and corporate expenses. Amounts included in property management fees include routine compensation paid to a third party managing property operations. The apartment complex was purchased for $70.5 million, excluding closing costs.

In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Statements for the period from January 1, 2014 to March 31, 2014 (unaudited) and for the year ended December 31, 2013 have been included. Such adjustments consisted only of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a year.

NOTE 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition: Revenue is derived from the rental of residential housing units with lease agreement terms of generally one year or less. The Property recognizes rent as income on a straight line basis over the term of the related lease. Included within other income is tenant reimbursement income consisting of charges billed to tenants for trash removal, utilities, internet and cable, and other income amounts such as administrative, application and late fees, all of which are recognized in income as earned.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of the statements of revenues and certain operating expenses, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and certain operating expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 3. Subsequent Events

The Property's management evaluated all events and transactions that occurred after December 31, 2013 through June 13, 2014, the date the statements of revenues and certain operating expenses were available to be issued. During this period, the Property did not have any material subsequent events other than as disclosed in Note 1.

Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information

On March 28, 2014, Resource Real Estate Opportunity REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) purchased Addison Place, a multifamily community, from an unaffiliated third party. The apartment complex was purchased for $70.5 million excluding closing costs, and was funded from the capital of the Company and proceeds from a line of credit.
 
The following unaudited pro forma financial statements do not include a pro forma consolidated balance sheet, as the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2014 included in the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q as of and for the period ended March 31, 2014 included the acquisition and purchase price allocations and related disclosures.
 
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and for the year ended December 31, 2013 are presented as if the Company had acquired Addison Place on January 1, 2013.  The footnotes to the pro forma financial statements provide details of the pro forma adjustments.  The Company believes that all material adjustments necessary to reflect the effects of the acquisition have been made.
 
This unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as filed in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 and the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2014, and are not necessarily indicative of what the actual operations or comprehensive loss would have been had the Company completed the transaction as of the beginning of the periods presented, nor is it necessarily indicative of future results.
