Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 21, 2018, Inland Residential Properties Trust, Inc. (the “Company”), through IRESI Montgomery Mitylene, L.L.C., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Mitylene Subsidiary”), entered into an agreement with B & M Development Company, L.L.C., an unaffiliated third party (the “Buyer”) to sell the property located at 8850 Crosswind Drive, Montgomery, Alabama, commonly known as “Verandas at Mitylene” (the “Property”) to the Buyer for approximately $40.5 million minus the principal amount outstanding on an approximately $21.9 million mortgage loan to be assumed by the Buyer, closing costs, commissions, and certain prorations and adjustments (the “Agreement”). The Company originally purchased the Property on July 27, 2017 for a purchase price of approximately $36.6 million, plus closing costs. Sale of the Property is subject to conditions contained in the Agreement.

 

The Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, which survive the closing of the sale for a period of six months. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Mitylene Subsidiary’s aggregate liability to the Buyer for any claim in connection with the Agreement or the Property, including without limitation any claim for breach of any representation or warranty of the Mitylene Subsidiary, is limited to no more than $500,000.

 

The Agreement requires the Buyer to fund $500,000 in earnest money deposits into escrow, with the first deposit of $250,000 initially due December 26, 2018, now extended to January 2, 2019, and the second deposit of $250,000 due on January 21, 2019. Upon the expiration of the due diligence period, which lapses on January 20, 2019, the money in escrow will become non-refundable unless the Mitylene Subsidiary defaults by failing to close or comply with or perform any of its covenants or obligations under the Agreement, or breaches any of its representations or warranties in the Agreement. If the Mitylene Subsidiary defaults on these obligations, in addition to the monies in escrow, the Buyer may also seek reimbursement of an amount up to $40,000 for certain third party out of pocket expenses incurred by the Buyer in connection with the Agreement or its investigating the Property.

 

The Property secures a mortgage loan of approximately $21.9 million. The mortgage loan bears interest at a fixed rate equal to 3.88% per annum and has a maturity date of August 1, 2027. The Buyer must make commercially reasonable efforts to assume all of the Mitylene Subsidiary’s obligations and liabilities under the mortgage loan and must obtain approval from the lender for the assumption, among other requirements specified in the Agreement (collectively, “Loan Assumption Approval”) within 60 days following submission to the lender of the Buyer’s application to assume the mortgage loan. The Buyer may obtain two possible extensions of up to 30 days each, if certain conditions set forth in the Agreement are met. If the Buyer does not receive Loan Assumption Approval by the end of the 60-day application period, or either or both of the extension periods (as applicable), either party may terminate the Agreement, in which case the Buyer will be entitled to return of the earnest money, and if terminated by the Mitylene Subsidiary, reimbursement from the Mitylene Subsidiary of an amount up to $40,000 for certain third party out of pocket expenses incurred by the Buyer in connection with the Agreement or its investigating the Property. The Buyer is also responsible for paying a loan assumption fee to the lender in the amount of $219,300, in addition to all other costs related to the loan assumption. Other than assumption of the loan, the Agreement does not require the Buyer to obtain additional financing in connection with its purchase of the Property.

 

The Agreement provides that the closing of the sale will occur 15 days after the Buyer receives Loan Assumption Approval, subject to the closing conditions set forth in the Agreement being satisfied. Although the Company believes that the sale of the Property is probable, there can be no assurance that the Buyer will obtain Loan Assumption Approval or that the sale of the Property will be consummated.

 

The foregoing description does not purport to be a complete description and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to a future filing by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
