Independent Auditor’s Report

 

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Bluerock Residential Growth REIT, Inc.

New York, New York

 

We have audited the accompanying Historical Statement of Revenues and Certain Direct Operating Expenses for the period from November 1, 2014 (commencement of real estate operations) through December 31, 2014 of Sovereign Apartments (the “Property”) and the related notes (“Historical Statement”).

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Historical Statement

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the Historical 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 Historical Statement that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Historical 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 Historical Statement is free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the Historical Statement. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Historical 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 Historical 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 Historical 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 Historical Statement referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and certain direct operating expenses of Sovereign Apartments for the period from November 1, 2014 (commencement of real estate operations) through December 31, 2014, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Emphasis of Matter

 

The accompanying Historical Statement was prepared for the purpose of complying with Rule 3-14 of the Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X, as described in Note 2, and is not intended to be a complete presentation of Sovereign Apartments’ revenues and expenses. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

2.Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying Historical Statements of Revenues and Certain Direct Operating Expenses (“Historical Statement”) have been prepared for the purpose of complying with Rule 3-14 of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X and are not intended to be a complete presentation of the Property’s revenues and expenses.

In the opinion of the Property’s management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation (in accordance with the Basis of Presentation as described in Note 2) have been made to the accompanying unaudited amounts for the nine month period ended September 30, 2015.

Revenue related to these reimbursed costs is recognized in the period the applicable costs are incurred and billed to tenants pursuant to the lease agreements. Other rental revenue consists of charges billed to tenants for garage rental, pets, administrative, application and other fees and is recognized when earned.
