Bluerock Homes Trust, Inc.

Bluerock Homes Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Maryland on December 16, 2021. The Company owns and operates a portfolio of institutional residential properties including single-family homes, build-to-rent communities, and other residential communities located in attractive markets with a focus on the knowledge-economy and high-quality of life growth markets of the Sunbelt and Western United States. The Company's principal objective is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns on investments where it believes it can drive growth in funds from operations and net asset value by acquiring residential units, developing residential communities, and through Value-Add renovations. The Company's Value-Add strategy focuses on repositioning lower-quality, less current assets to drive rent growth and expand margins to increase net operating income and maximize the Company's return on investment. As of September 30, 2025, the Company held twenty-two real estate investments, consisting of seventeen consolidated investments and five preferred equity investments. The twenty-two investments represent an aggregate of 5,282 residential units, comprised of 4,170 consolidated units, of which 358 units are under development, and 1,112 units through preferred equity investments, which includes planned units and those under development. As of September 30, 2025, the Company's consolidated operating investments were approximately 91.8% occupied; excluding units classified as held for sale and down/renovation units, the Company's consolidated operating investments were approximately 93.7% occupied. The Company has elected to be treated, and currently qualifies, as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. As a REIT, the Company generally is not subject to corporate-level income taxes. To maintain its REIT status, the Company is required, among other requirements, to distribute annually at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income,” as defined by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), to the Company's stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it would be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates and it would not be permitted to qualify as a REIT for four years following the year in which it lost its qualification. The Company intends to continue to organize and operate in such a manner as to remain qualified as a REIT.
