Note 1 – Organization and Nature of Business

Bluerock Homes Trust, Inc. (the “Company” or “Bluerock Homes”) was incorporated as a Maryland corporation on December 16, 2021. The Company owns and operates a portfolio of institutional residential properties including apartments, build-to-rent communities, single-family homes, 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 current investment strategy is focused on growing its portfolio of residential communities. 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 December 31, 2025, the Company held twenty-five real estate investments, consisting of nineteen consolidated investments, five preferred equity investments, and one unconsolidated real estate fund investment. The twenty-four consolidated and preferred equity investments represent an aggregate of 5,572 residential units, comprised of 4,423 consolidated units, of which 370 units are under development or in lease–up, and 1,149 units through preferred equity investments, which includes planned units and those under development.

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.
