NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

September 30, 2017 and 2016

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATION

Reven Housing REIT, Inc. is a Maryland corporation (Reven Housing REIT, Inc., which along with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, are also referred to herein collectively as the “Company”) which acquires portfolios of occupied and rented single-family residential properties throughout the United States with the objective of receiving income from rental property activity and future profits from the sale of rental property at appreciated values.

As of September 30, 2017, the Company owned 755 single-family homes located in the Houston, Jacksonville, Memphis, Birmingham, and Atlanta metropolitan areas.

NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”), and the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 24, 2017. The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Reven Housing REIT OP, L.P., Reven Housing GP, LLC, Reven Housing REIT TRS, LLC, Reven Housing Georgia, LLC, Reven Housing Texas, LLC, Reven Housing Texas 2, LLC, Reven Housing Florida, LLC, Reven Housing Florida 2, LLC, Reven Housing Alabama, LLC and Reven Housing Tennessee, LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Financial Instruments

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, as reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, approximates fair value due to their short term nature. The Company’s short term financial instruments consist of cash, rents and other receivables, escrow deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and resident security deposits.

The carrying value of the Company’s notes payable, as reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, approximates fair value due to the fact that their interest rate, security, and payment terms are similar to other debt instruments currently being issued.

NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Investments in Single-Family Residential Properties

Prior to January 1, 2017, the Company accounted for its investments in single-family residential properties as business combinations under the guidance of ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) and these acquisitions were recorded at their estimated fair value. The purchase price was allocated to land, building and the existing leases based upon their fair values at the date of acquisition, with acquisition costs expensed as incurred.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business , which changed the definition of a business and now requires management to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. When this is the case, the transferred assets and activities are not considered to be a business. This determination is important as the accounting treatment for business combinations and asset acquisitions differs since transactions costs are expensed in a business combination and capitalized in an asset acquisition. The guidance is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and for interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2017, on a prospective basis, which results in our leased properties no longer meeting the definition of a business. Based on this guidance, our current 2017 acquisitions are treated as asset acquisitions and are recorded at their purchase price, and the purchase price is allocated between land, building, improvements and existing leases based upon their relative fair values at the date of acquisition. The purchase price for purposes of this allocation is inclusive of acquisition costs which typically include legal fees, title fees, property inspection and valuation fees, as well as other closing costs.

Building improvements and buildings are depreciated over estimated useful lives of approximately 10 to 27.5 years, respectively, using the straight-line method. Lease origination costs are amortized over the average remaining term of the in-place leases which is generally less than one year. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expenses as incurred.

The Company assesses its investments in single-family residential properties for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. When such events occur, management determines whether there has been impairment by comparing the asset’s carrying value with its fair value. Should impairment exist, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value. The Company did not recognize any impairment losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Cash

The Company maintains its cash at quality financial institutions. The combined account balances at one or more institutions typically exceed the federal insurance coverage and thus there is a concentration of credit risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of available federal insurance coverage. The Company believes that the risk is not significant, as the Company does not anticipate the financial institutions’ non-performance.

Rents and Other Receivables

Rents and other receivables primarily represent the amount of security deposits and net rental funds which are held by the property managers on behalf of the Company.

Escrow Deposits

Escrow deposits include refundable and non-refundable cash and earnest money on deposit with third parties for future property purchases. However, not all of these properties are certain to be acquired because properties may fall out of escrow through the closing process for various reasons.

Deferred Loan Fees

Costs incurred in the placement of the Company’s notes payable are deferred and amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the respective notes as a component of interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations and presented as an offset to notes payable on the consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Deferred Stock Issuance Costs

Deferred stock issuance costs represent amounts paid for legal, consulting, and other offering expenses in conjunction with the future raising of additional capital to be completed. These costs are netted against additional paid-in capital as a cost of the stock issuance upon closing of the respective stock placement.

Resident Security Deposits

Resident security deposits represent amounts deposited by tenants at the inception of the lease. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had $679,409 and $552,698, respectively, in resident security deposits. Security deposits are refundable, net of any outstanding charges and fees, upon expiration of the underlying lease.

Revenue Recognition

Residential properties are leased to tenants under short term rental agreements of generally one year and revenue is recognized over the lease term on a straight-line basis.

Reclassifications

The Company has reclassified certain prior period amounts to conform to the current period’s presentation.

Income Taxes

The Company intends to elect to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), as defined in the Internal Revenue Code, commencing for the year ending December 31, 2017. Accordingly, the Company does not expect to be subject to federal income tax, provided that it continues to qualify as a REIT and distributions to the stockholders equal or exceed REIT taxable income.

Qualification and taxation as a REIT depends upon the Company’s ability to meet the various qualification tests imposed under the Internal Revenue Code related to the percentage of income that are earned from specified sources, the percentage of assets that fall within specified categories, the diversity of capital stock ownership, and the percentage of earnings that are distributed. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the Company will be organized or be able to operate in a manner to qualify or remain qualified as a REIT. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal and state income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates, and the Company may be ineligible to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent tax years. Even if the Company qualifies as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state or local income taxes.

Incentive Compensation Plan

During 2012, the Company established the 2012 Incentive Compensation Plan, which was subsequently amended and restated in December 2013 (“2012 Plan”). The 2012 Plan allows for the grant of options and other awards representing up to 1,650,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Such awards may be granted to officers, directors, employees, consultants and other persons who provide services to the Company or any related entity. Under the 2012 Plan, options may be granted at an exercise price greater than or equal to the market value at the date of the grant, for owners of 10% or more of the voting shares, at an exercise price of not less than 110% of the market value. Awards are exercisable over a period of time as determined by a committee designated by the Board of Directors, but in no event, longer than ten years.

A total of 496,359 shares have been issued under the 2012 plan as of September 30, 2017.

Net Loss Per Share

Net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Warrants, stock options, and common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Company's preferred stock (if any) are not included in the computation if the effect would be anti-dilutive and would increase earnings or decrease loss per share. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, potentially dilutive securities excluded from the calculations were 263,588 shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants granted in prior years.

NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases , a new lease standard which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e. lessees and lessors). Under ASU 2016-02, lessor accounting will be substantially similar to the current model, but aligned with certain changes to the lessee model and ASU 2014-09. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. The Company’s rental revenue is primarily generated from short-term operating leases. The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase of the leased asset by the lessee. This classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The new standard is expected to impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the Company has an operating office lease arrangement for which it is the lessee. The new standard will be effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition, requiring application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented and provides for certain practical expedients. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . The amendments in this ASU include multiple provisions intended to simplify various aspects of the accounting for share-based payments. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and for interim reporting periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2017 and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments , which clarifies how certain cash receipts and cash payments should be presented and classified on the statement of cash flows. The guidance will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows, Restricted Cash , which requires the statement of cash flows to explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Thus, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments do not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The guidance will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma

During the quarter ended September 30, 2017, a significant number of the Company’s properties in Houston, TX and Jacksonville, FL incurred storm related damages from Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma. The Company has estimated the damages to the properties to be approximately $2.6 million and has reduced its carrying value of its homes by that amount. The Company has estimated that approximately $1,650,000 of the damages will be reimbursed in accordance with the Company’s insurance policies. The remaining $950,000 of repair costs represents amounts that will be paid by the Company from its available cash balances and are due to applicable deductible costs and uninsured costs. This amount has been included in casualty losses, net in the statement of operations and has been combined with the results from other minor pre-storm casualty gains and losses.

The Company received approximately $500,000 for Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma related damages from its insurers during the period ended September 30, 2017 and the remaining $1,150,000 expected to be recovered has been included in other assets.

The Company is actively repairing all of its damaged homes in both Houston, TX and Jacksonville, FL and anticipates that all properties will be restored to their original operating condition or better.

NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal and Regulatory

The Company is subject to potential liability under laws and government regulations and various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of the Company’s business. Liabilities are established for legal claims when payments associated with the claims become probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. The actual costs of resolving legal claims may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts established for those claims. Based on information currently available, management is not aware of any legal or regulatory claims that would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and, therefore, no accrual has been recorded as of the periods ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements based upon our current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set further under Part I. Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K as updated by our other periodic reporting.

Overview

We are an internally managed Maryland corporation that engages in the acquisition, ownership and operation of portfolios of leased single-family homes in the United States. We operate our portfolio properties as single family rentals, or SFRs, and we generate most of our revenue from rental income from the existing tenants of the SFRs we have acquired. We intend to elect to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, for federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2017.

As of September 30, 2017, we have invested an aggregate of approximately $56.0 million and own a total of 755 homes, of which 264 homes are in the Houston, Texas metropolitan area, 255 homes are in the Jacksonville, Florida metropolitan area, 120 homes are in the Memphis, Tennessee metropolitan area (with two of the Memphis homes located just across the border in Mississippi), 69 homes are in the Birmingham, Alabama metropolitan area, and 47 homes are in the Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan area.

We intend to expand our acquisitions to other select markets in the United States that fit our investment criteria as we continue to evaluate new investment opportunities in different markets. As of September 30, 2017, our portfolio properties were 93.9% occupied. All of our portfolio properties have been acquired from available cash and with the proceeds from our secured loan transactions with banks pursuant to which we had an outstanding principal amount owed of approximately $27.4 million as of September 30, 2017. Our loan transactions are secured by first priority liens and related rents on specific portfolios of our homes.

Our principal objective is to generate cash flow and distribute resulting profits to our stockholders in the form of distributions, while gaining home price appreciation, or HPA, at the same time through the ownership of our portfolio properties. With this objective in mind, we have developed our primary business strategy of acquiring portfolios of leased SFRs. We believe the execution of this strategy will allow us to generate immediate and steady cash flow from the rental income from the SFRs that we acquire while potentially gaining significant HPA over time. While our goal is to grow our company and generate available cash flow from the rental income of our SFRs that will allow us to pay all of our operating costs for the operation of our portfolio properties and distribute profits to our stockholders in the form of quarterly dividends, there can be no assurance we will be able to do so.

We plan to continue to acquire and manage single-family homes with a focus on long term earnings growth and appreciation in asset value. Our ability to identify and acquire single-family properties that meet our investment criteria will be affected by home prices in our markets, the inventory of properties available through our acquisition channels, competition for our target assets, our capital available for investment, and the cost of that capital. We believe the housing market environment in our markets remains attractive for single-family property acquisitions and rentals. Pricing for housing in certain markets remains attractive and demand for housing is growing. At the same time, we continue to face relatively steady competition for new properties and residents from local operators and institutional managers. Housing prices across our markets have appreciated over the past year. Despite these gains, we believe housing in certain of our markets continues to provide attractive acquisition opportunities and remains inexpensive relative to replacement cost and affordability metrics.

We anticipate continued strong rental demand for single-family homes. While new building activity has begun to increase, it remains below historical averages and we believe substantial under-investment in residential housing over the past years will create upward pressure on home prices and rents as demand exceeds supply.

Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma

During the quarter ended September 30, 2017, a significant number of our properties in Houston and Jacksonville incurred storm related damages from Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma. We have estimated our storm related damages to be approximately $2,600,000. The amount that is expected to be reimbursed under the terms of our insurance policies is estimated to be approximately $1,650,000. The remaining $950,000 of repair costs represents amounts we will fund from our available cash balances and are due to applicable deductible costs and uninsured costs relating to the storms. This amount has been included in casualty losses, net, in our accompanying statement of operations.

The Company is actively repairing its damaged homes in both Houston and Jacksonville and anticipates that all properties will be restored to their original operating condition or better.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we had total rental income of $2,043,322 compared to total rental income of $1,381,080 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase is due primarily to an increase in the number of homes owned during the 2017 period when compared to the number of homes owned during the three months ended September 30, 2016. As of September 30, 2017, we owned 755 homes, at September 30, 2016 we owned 527 homes.

As of September 30, 2017, 709, or 93.9%, of our 755 homes were occupied. During the three months ended September 30, 2017, we had 60 home leases turnover, which represented approximately 7.9% of our end of the quarter portfolio. As of September 30, 2017, we had 25 homes in Houston and Jacksonville which were temporarily vacant due to the effects of Hurricane Harvey and Irma. As of September 30, 2016, 496, or 94.1%, of our 527 homes were occupied. During the quarter ended September 30, 2016, we had 42 home leases turnover, which represented approximately 8.0% of our end of the quarter portfolio.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we had property operating and maintenance expenses of $593,339 compared to $406,475 for the corresponding prior year period. Property operating and maintenance expenses consist of insurance, property management fees paid to third parties, repairs and maintenance costs, home owner association fees, and other miscellaneous property costs. Real estate taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2017 were $346,669 compared to $230,165 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in property operating, maintenance expenses from 2016 to 2017 reflects the corresponding increase in our inventory of single family homes. The increase in real estate taxes from 2016 to 2017 is based on an increase in our inventory of single family homes and an increase in our provision for 2017 real estate taxes due to preliminary indications of tax assessment values increases in excess of our historical annual increases. These increases our due to market value increases for many of our homes since our initial purchase. We had net operating income from rentals of $1,103,314 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to net operating income from rentals of $744,440 in the corresponding prior year period. This resulted in a net operating income margin of 54.0% in 2017 compared to a net operating income margin of 53.9% in 2016.

Depreciation and amortization on our home investments increased to $537,968 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $326,029 in 2016, reflecting the corresponding increase in our inventory of single family homes.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2017 totaled $558,074 compared to general and administrative expenses of $486,379 for the corresponding prior year period. General and administrative expenses consist of personnel costs, outside director fees, occupancy fees, public company filing fees, legal, accounting, and other general expenses. The increase in our general and administrative expenses is due to marginal increases in personnel, board of director expenses, travel and promotional expense in 2017 when compared to 2016.

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, noncash share-based compensation was $425,000 due to vesting of share awards to certain officers and consultants upon the achievement of certain milestones related to our stock offering in that period. There was no corresponding noncash share-based compensation in the corresponding current period.

Real estate acquisition costs were $18,265 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Due to new accounting guidance, our purchases of portfolios of rented single family homes are now considered to be asset purchases; thus, corresponding acquisition costs will now be capitalized as part of our purchase price of the single family residential properties acquired. Thus, there were no real estate acquisition costs expensed for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Real estate acquisition costs in 2016 consisted primarily of closing costs, due diligence costs and reports, and legal and accounting fees relating to our acquisitions of single family homes.

The above results in total expenses of $2,036,050 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 resulting in an operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $7,272, compared to total expenses of $1,892,313 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and a corresponding operating loss of $511,233 for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, we incurred casualty losses of $978,181 primarily due to damages to our homes from Hurricane Harvey and Irma. These homes are currently being repaired and we expect them to be restored to their pre-storm conditions. We expect costs in excess of our deductibles and recorded casualty loss to be reimbursed by our insurance carriers. We did not incur any casualty losses during the three months ended September 30, 2016. Other income was $5,466 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to other income of $496 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Interest expense on our notes payable was $342,253 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $260,506 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase is primarily due to higher note payable balances for the three months ended September 30, 2017 when compared to the corresponding period in 2016. This resulted in net other expense of $1,314,968 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to a net other expense of $260,010 for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $1,307,696. The net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $771,243. The weighted average number of shares outstanding for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased to 10,734,025 from 8,245,013 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 resulting in a net loss per share of $0.12 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and a net loss per share of $0.09 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in weighted average number of shares outstanding was due to the completion of our public offering during 2016. Note that if the effect of the casualty loss caused by Hurricane Harvey and Irma were removed from our operating results for the three months ending September 30, 2017, the net loss would have been approximately $329,515 or approximately $.03 per share.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016

The following table sets forth a comparison of the results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016:

Net loss	$	(1,962,259	)	$	(1,419,485	)	$	(542,774	)		-38.2	%

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we had total rental income of $5,814,135 compared to total rental income of $4,153,979 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in total rental and other income is due primarily to the increase in rental homes owned for the 2017 time period as compared to 2016.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we had property operating and maintenance expenses of $1,694,969 compared to $1,207,217 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Real estate taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $988,839 compared to $658,256 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in real estate taxes from 2016 to 2017 is due to a corresponding increase in our inventory of single family homes, and increase in tax assessments due to fair market value increases in our homes when compared to historical tax assessments.

We had net operating income from rentals of $3,130,327 for the first nine months of 2017 compared to net operating income from rentals of $2,288,506 in the corresponding prior year’s period. The increase in net operating income is due primarily to the increase in rental homes owned during the current 2016 period. This results in a net operating income margin of 53.8% in 2017 compared to a net operating income margin of 55.1% in 2016.

Depreciation and amortization increased to $1,458,933 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $964,953 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, reflecting the corresponding increase in our inventory of single family homes.

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 totaled $1,860,473 compared to general and administrative expenses of $1,466,865 for the prior year period. The increase in our general and administrative expenses is due primarily to marginal increases in legal, accounting, personnel, board of director fees, miscellaneous travel and promotional expense in 2017 when compared to 2016, due to an increase in acquisition and promotional activities in the current period.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, noncash share-based compensation was $425,000 due to vesting of share awards to certain officers and consultants upon the achievement of certain milestones related to our stock offering in that period. There was no corresponding noncash share-based compensation in the corresponding current period.

Real estate acquisition costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 totaled $76,129. Due to new accounting guidance, our purchase of portfolios of rented single family homes are now considered to be asset purchases; thus, corresponding acquisition costs will now be capitalized as part of our purchase price of the single family residential properties acquired. Thus, there were no real estate acquisition costs expensed for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Real estate acquisition costs in 2016 consisted primarily of closing costs, due diligence costs and reports, and legal and accounting fees relating to our acquisitions of single family homes.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we incurred net casualty losses of $895,194 primarily due to damages to our homes from Hurricane Harvey and Irma in the last quarter. These homes are currently being repaired and we expect them to be restored to their pre-storm conditions. We expect costs in excess of our deductibles and recorded casualty loss to be reimbursed by our insurance carriers. We did not incur any casualty losses during the three months ended September 30, 2016. We sold two residential properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 for a gain of $75,796. There were no corresponding sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Other income was $13,628 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to other income of $805 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Interest expense on our notes payable was $967,410 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $775,849 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase is primarily due to higher note payable balances for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 when compared to the corresponding period in 2016. This resulted in net other expense of $1,773,180 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to a net other expense of $775,044 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was $1,962,259. The net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $1,419,485. The weighted average number of shares outstanding for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased to 10,734,025 from 7,441,650 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, resulting in a net loss per share of $0.18 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and a net loss per share of $0.19 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Note that if the effect of the casualty loss caused by Hurricane Harvey and Irma were removed from our operating results for the nine months ending September 30, 2017, the net loss would have been approximately $1,067,065 or approximately $.10 per share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, fund and maintain our assets and operations, make interest payments and fund other general business needs. Our liquidity, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive and other factors that are beyond our control. Our near-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of acquiring properties, funding our operations, and making interest payments.

Our liquidity and capital resources as of September 30, 2017 consisted primarily of cash of $6,980,464. We believe our current liquidity and the expected cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund the present level of our operations through the 12 months following the date of this report. However, our future acquisition activity will depend primarily on our ability to raise funds from the further issuance of shares of our common stock or units of our operating partnership combined with new loan transactions secured by our current and future home inventories. In order to purchase additional single family homes, we intend to opportunistically utilize the capital markets to raise additional capital, including through the issuance of debt and equity securities, but there can be no assurance that we will be able to access adequate liquidity sources on favorable terms, or at all.

Credit Facilities

On January 31, 2017, we borrowed $5,020,000 from a regional bank pursuant to our issuance of a promissory note secured by deeds of trust in the principal amount of $5,020,000. Principal and accrued interest are payable in 60 consecutive monthly installments of $31,759 on the first day of the month until January 31, 2022 when the entire amount of principal and interest remaining unpaid will be payable. Interest accrues and is payable monthly on the loan at the rate equal to four and one-half percent (4.50%) per annum until maturity. The loan is secured by first priority liens on 97 homes in the Houston, Texas metropolitan area. The note and the deeds of trust contain customary terms and conditions, including, without limitation, customary events of default and acceleration upon default, including defaults in the payment of principal or interest, defaults in compliance with the covenants and bankruptcy or other insolvency events.

On April 4, 2017, we entered into loan modification agreements where we modified the interest rate and amended the maturity period on our loans with another regional bank with a total current outstanding principal amount due of approximately $19,500,000. The modified loan agreement provides that monthly interest and principal payments will be made based on a fixed interest rate of 4.5% and an amortization period of 25 years. All unpaid principal will be due on April 5, 2020. The other terms remain generally unchanged. These loans are secured by first priority liens and related rents on our properties.

On August 1, 2017, we received loan proceeds and issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $1,793,633 to a regional bank secured by our homes located in Georgia. Interest accrues at a fixed rate of 4.5% and monthly principal and interest payments will be made based on a 25-year amortization period with the remaining unpaid principal due July 5, 2020.

On August 22, 2017, we received loan proceeds and issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $1,155,000 to a regional bank secured by 28 of the Company’s homes located in Tennessee. Interest accrues at a fixed rate of 4.5% and monthly principal and interest payments will be made based on a 25-year amortization period with the remaining unpaid principal due September 5, 2020.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

							$
	2017			2016			Change
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities		321,752			(84,921	)		406,673
Net cash used in investing activities		(10,171,771	)		(389,502	)		(9,782,269	)

Change in cash		(3,064,513	)		13,941,905			(17,006,418	)

Operating Activities

We had net cash provided by operating activities of $321,752 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. This resulted from a net loss of $1,962,259, adding back depreciation and amortization of $1,458,933, amortization of deferred loan fees of $108,117, and casualty loss, net of $895,194 and deducting gain on sale of residential property of $75,796, and then decreasing the amount by the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $102,437.

We had net cash used in operating activities of $84,921 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. This resulted from a net loss of $1,419,485, adding back depreciation and amortization of $964,953, noncash share-based compensation of $425,000 and amortization of deferred loan fees of $90,981, and then decreasing the amount by the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $146,370.

Investing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we invested $10,117,039 in new homes, $668,268 in capital improvements for our homes, and $219,407 in lease origination costs. We received $205,027 of proceeds on the disposition of residential property, $554,806 of insurance proceeds for property damages, and received $73,110 in refunds of escrow deposits for a total of $10,171,771 of cash used in investing activities.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we invested $364,823 in capital improvements and $76,080 in lease origination costs, and received $51,401 in refunds of escrow deposits for a total of $389,502 of cash used in investing activities.

Financing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we had net cash provided by financing activities of $6,785,506 derived from $7,968,633 of proceeds from a note payable, less $405,750 of notes payable principal payments, less $220,773 of loan fees, less payments of deferred stock issuance costs of $556,604.

During the nine months ended September 30,2016, we had net cash provided by financing activities of $14,416,328 consisting of $15,415,100 of proceeds from the issuance of shares, less $27,056 in notes payable principal payments and $971,716 of payments of deferred stock issuance costs.

Our future acquisition activity relies primarily on our ability to raise funds from the further issuance of common shares combined with new loan transactions secured by our current and future home inventories. We remain focused on acquiring new capital. We believe our current cash balance combined with our estimated future net rental revenue is sufficient to fund our operating activities through the 12 months following the date of this report.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

None.

Net Operating Income

We define net operating income (or NOI) as total revenue less property operating and maintenance and real estate taxes. NOI is a non-GAAP measurement that excludes acquisition costs, depreciation and amortization, general and administration, legal and accounting, and interest expenses.

We consider NOI to be a meaningful financial measure when considered with the financial statements determined in accordance with GAAP. We believe NOI is helpful to investors in understanding the amount of income after operating expenses which is generated in a given period.

The following is a reconciliation of our NOI to net loss as determined in accordance with GAAP for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Net operating income as a percentage of total revenue		54.0	%		53.9	%		53.8	%		55.1	%

NOI should not be considered an alternative to net loss or net cash flows from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP, as indications of our performance or as measures of liquidity. Nor is NOI necessarily indicative of cash available to fund future cash needs or distributions to shareholders. In addition, although we use NOI for comparability in assessing our performance against other REITs, not all REITs compute the same non-GAAP measure of NOI. Accordingly, our basis for computing this non- GAAP measure may not be comparable with that of other REITs. This is due in part to the differences in property operating and maintenance expenses incurred by, and real estate taxes applicable to, different companies and the significant effect these items have on NOI.

Funds From Operations and Core Funds From Operations

Funds From Operations (or FFO) is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe, when considered with the financial statements determined in accordance with GAAP, is helpful to investors in understanding our performance because it captures features particular to real estate performance by recognizing that real estate generally appreciates over time or maintains residual value to a much greater extent than do other depreciable assets. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (or NAREIT) defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of, and impairment losses recognized with respect to, depreciable property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated on the same basis to determine FFO.

Core Funds From Operations (or Core FFO) is a non-GAAP financial measure that we use as a supplemental measure of our performance. We believe that Core FFO is further helpful to investors as it provides a more consistent measurement of our performance across reporting periods by removing the impact of certain items that are not comparable from period to period. We adjust FFO for expensed acquisition fees and costs, share-based compensation, non-cash interest expense related to amortization of deferred financing costs, casualty gains and losses, and certain other non-comparable costs to arrive at Core FFO.

FFO and Core FFO should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) or net cash flows from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP, as indications of our performance or as measures of liquidity. These non-GAAP measures are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund future cash needs. In addition, although we use these non-GAAP measures for comparability in assessing our performance against other REITs, not all REITs compute the same non-GAAP measures. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that our basis for computing these non-GAAP measures is comparable with that of other REITs. This is due in part to the differences in capitalization policies used by different companies and the significant effect these capitalization policies have on FFO and Core FFO. Real estate costs which are accounted for as capital improvements are added to the carrying value of the property and depreciated over time, whereas real estate costs that are expenses are accounted for as a current period expense. This affects FFO and Core FFO because costs that are accounted for as expenses reduce FFO and Core FFO. Conversely, real estate costs associated with assets that are capitalized and then subsequently depreciated are added back to net income to calculate FFO and Core FFO.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of our net loss as determined in accordance with GAAP and our calculations of FFO and Core FFO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016:

PROMISSORY NOTE SECURED BY DEEDS TO SECURE DEBT

$1,793,633.00

Dekalb, Clayton, Fulton, Newton, and

Gwinnett Counties, Georgia

July 28, 2017

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned ("Borrower") promises to pay to SILVERGATE BANK, a California corporation ("Lender"), or order, during regular business hours at Silvergate Bank, 4250 Executive Square, Suite 300, La Jolla, California 92037-1492, Attention: Commercial RE Group, or at such other place as Lender may from time to time designate by written notice to Borrower, with sufficient information to identify the source and application of such payment, the sum of up to One Million Seven Hundred Ninety-Three Thousand Six Hundred Thirty-Three and No/100 Dollars ($1,793,633.00), together with interest on the balance of outstanding principal from the disbursement dates thereof at the per annum rate set forth below. All calculations of interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

1. Interest Rate . The outstanding principal balance under this Note shall bear interest at a per annum rate of [four and one-half percent (4.50%)] (the "Contract Rate").

2. Monthly Payments of Principal and Interest First Month . Commencing with the date of the initial disbursement of funds through and including August 4, 2017, in which such disbursement occurs, interest only shall be payable in advance on the date of this Note at the Contract Rate. Interest for such partial month shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and shall be equal to the sum of a per diem interest charge (for each day the principal balance hereof is outstanding during such partial month) equal to the product of (a) 1/360 and (b) the Contract Rate and (c) the outstanding principal balance hereunder for the day in question.

2.2 Monthly Payments . Commencing on September 5, 2017 and continuing on the fifth day of each of the next calendar months thereafter through and including June 5, 2020, Borrower shall pay to Lender monthly payments of principal and interest in an amount equal to the amount which would be sufficient to amortize the outstanding principal balance under this Note (as of the date of such payment) at the then effective Contract Rate over the then remaining portion of an amortization period commencing on August 5, 2017 and ending on August 4, 2042.

3. Maturity Date . The entire balance of principal and accrued interest and other amounts then outstanding on this Note are due and payable on July 5, 2020 (the "Maturity Date"). Borrower acknowledges that such balance will not equal the regular monthly payment specified in Section 2.

Promissory Note

4. Application of Payments . Each payment hereunder shall be applied when received first to the payment of accrued interest on the principal balance hereof from time to time remaining unpaid and then to reduce principal and then to amounts payable, if any, into escrow accounts payable under the Loan Documents for taxes or insurance and then to any unpaid "Past Due Charge" (as defined below); provided, however, upon the occurrence of an "Event of Default" (as defined below), payments may be applied to any amounts secured by any of the "Security Instruments" (as defined below) in such order and amounts as is designated by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion. No such application by Lender shall constitute a cure or waiver of any default by Borrower under the applicable Security Instrument or under this Note. If notwithstanding the parties' election and agreement that Georgia law governs this Note, California law is applied to this Note, Borrower hereby waives any rights and benefits, if any, that may arise under or by virtue of California Civil Code Section 2822(a). Without limitation of the foregoing, in the event of any partial payment hereunder, Lender shall have the sole right and authority to determine which portion of the indebtedness evidenced hereby any partial payment may be applied against, if any; provided that, nothing in the foregoing shall impose upon Lender any duty or obligation to accept or apply any partial payment received by Lender hereunder or under the applicable Security Instrument.

5. Default: Acceleration . This Note is secured by those certain Deeds to Secure Debt, Absolute Assignments of Rents and Leases, Security Agreements and Fixture Filings of even date herewith by Borrower for the benefit of Lender (individually, a "Security Instrument", and collectively, the "Security Instruments"). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an "Event of Default" (as defined in any of the Security Instruments), then, or at any time thereafter, the whole of the unpaid principal hereof, together with accrued and outstanding interest and all other sums required to be paid under this Note or the Security Instruments (including the prepayment premium hereinafter described) shall, at the election of Lender and with prior notice of such election, become due and payable. Lender's election may be exercised at any time after any such event, and the acceptance of one or more payments hereon from any person thereafter shall not constitute a waiver of Lender's election, or of its option to make such election.

6. Past Due Charge and Past Due Interest Rate . Borrower recognizes and acknowledges that any default on any payment, or portion thereof, due hereunder or to be made under any of the Security Instruments, will result in losses and additional expenses to Lender in servicing the indebtedness evidenced hereby, and in losses due to Lender's loss of the use of funds not timely received. Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any such default, Lender would be entitled to damages for the detriment proximately caused thereby, but that it would be extremely difficult and impracticable to ascertain the extent of or compute such damages . Therefore, if for any reason Borrower fails to pay any interest or principal required to be paid under this Note, including any payment due at maturity or upon acceleration, or fails to pay any amounts due under any of the Security Instruments, within ten (10) days of when due, Borrower shall pay to Lender, in addition to any such delinquent payment, an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such delinquent payment ("Past Due Charge"). In addition, upon the Maturity Date or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (or upon any acceleration), interest shall accrue hereunder at the "Past Due Rate" (as defined below). Borrower acknowledges that the Past Due Charge and interest at the Past Due Rate agreed to hereunder represent the reasonable estimate of those damages which would be incurred by Lender, and a fair return to Lender for the loss of the use of the funds not timely received from Borrower on account of a default by Borrower as herein specified, established by Borrower and Lender through good faith consideration of the facts and circumstances surrounding the transaction contemplated under this Note as of the date hereof, but that such Past Due Charge and interest at the Past Due Rate are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other right or remedy available to Lender. If any applicable law proscribes the imposition of a past due charge in the amount of the Past Due Charge herein specified, or limits the rate of the additional interest that may be charged to a rate less than the Past Due Rate herein specified, then the maximum charge or rate permitted by such law shall be charged by Lender for purposes of this Section. As used herein, the "Past Due Rate" shall be equal to the lesser of (i) six (6) percentage points over the Contract Rate, or (ii) the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by applicable laws or regulation governing this Note until paid, such additional interest to be compounded annually.

Promissory Note

7. Prepayment . Except as provided in Section 12 herein, Borrower shall have no right to prepay any principal of this Note except that, so long as no default or Event of Default exists under this Note or any of the Security Instruments as of the date of such prepayment by Borrower, Borrower will have the privilege, to prepay the principal of this Note (in whole only and not in part) upon at least thirty (30) but not more than sixty (60) days advance written notice and subject to the following terms and conditions:

7.1. Premium . Concurrently with such prepayment, Borrower shall pay all accrued and unpaid interest under this Note (whether or not then due), all amounts then due under this Note and each of the Security Instruments and a prepayment premium equal to the following:

(1) A prepayment premium equal to two percent (2%) of the amount prepaid for a prepayment on or before August 5, 2018; and

(2) A prepayment premium equal to one percent (1 %) of the amount prepaid for prepayments from and including August 6, 2018 through and including August 5, 2019; with no prepayment premium thereafter.

B. EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS . BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT BORROWER HAS NO RIGHTS OF PREPAYMENT OF THIS NOTE, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED ABOVE; AND BORROWER FURTHER AGREES THAT, IF THE MATURITY OF THIS NOTE IS ACCELERATED BY LENDER BY REASON OF THE EXISTENCE AND CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT AND BORROWER OR ANY THIRD PERSON THEREAFTER SEEKS TO PAY SUCH ACCELERATED INDEBTEDNESS OR PURCHASE ANY OR ALL THE PROPERTIES (INDIVIDUALLY, A "PROPERTY", AND COLLECTIVELY, THE "PROPERTIES") ENCUMBERED BY THE SECURITY INSTRUMENTS SECURING THIS NOTE AT FORECLOSURE SALE, SUCH PAYOFF OR PURCHASE SHALL CONSTITUTE A PREPAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL HEREUNDER AND A PREMIUM SHALL BE PAYABLE IN AN AMOUNT WHICH SHALL BE COMPUTED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 7 (INCLUDING THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM).

Promissory Note

8. Costs . Borrower promises to pay to Lender, within five (5) business days after written notice from Lender, all out-of-pocket costs, expenses, disbursements, property taxes, escrow fees, title charges and legal fees and expenses actually incurred by Lender or its counsel (which must be reasonable provided no Event of Default has occurred and is existing) in the negotiation, funding, enforcement or attempted enforcement, by foreclosure or otherwise, of this Note or any of the Security Instruments. Without limitation on the foregoing, Borrower agrees to pay all out-of pocket costs of collection, including attorneys' fees and costs (whether or not for salaried attorneys regularly employed by Lender) and all costs of any action or proceeding (including any bankruptcy proceeding or any non-judicial foreclosure or private sale) actually incurred by Lender, in the event any payment is not paid when due, or in case it becomes necessary to enforce any other obligation of Borrower hereunder or to protect the security for the indebtedness evidenced hereby, or for the foreclosure by Lender of any of the Security Instruments, or in the event Lender is made a party to any litigation because of the existence of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, or because of the existence of any of the Security Instruments . All such costs are secured by the Security Instruments. The obligation of Borrower to repay all such out of-pocket costs and any other advances by Lender are secured by the Security Instruments and shall be deemed to be evidenced by this Note and shall accrue interest at the Contract Rate or the Past Due Rate, whichever is then applicable .

9. Waivers . Borrower hereby waives diligence, presentment, protest and demand, notice of protest, of demand, of nonpayment, of dishonor and of maturity and agrees that time is of the essence of every provision hereof; and further agrees that any such renewal, extension or modification, or the release or substitution of any person or security for the indebtedness evidenced hereby, shall not affect the liability of any of such parties for the indebtedness evidenced by this Note or the obligations under any of the Security Instruments . Any such renewals, extensions, modifications, releases or substitutions may be made without notice to any of such parties .

10. Remedies Cumulative . The rights and remedies of Lender as provided in this Note and in each of the Security Instruments shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued singly, successively or together against Borrower, any of the Properties, or any other persons or entities who are, or may become liable for all or any part of this indebtedness, and any other funds, property or security held by Lender for the payment hereof, or otherwise, at the sole discretion of Lender. Failure to exercise any such right or remedy shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release of such rights or remedies, or the right to exercise them at any later time. The right , if any , of Borrower, and all other persons or entities, who are, or may become, liable for this indebtedness, to plead any and all statutes of limitation as a defense is expressly waived by ach and all of such parties to the full extent permissible by law.

Promissory Note

11. Security Instrument Provisions Regarding Transfers: Successors . Each of the Security Instruments securing this Note contains provisions for the acceleration of the indebtedness evidenced hereby upon a "Transfer" (as therein defined) . Subject to the limitations on Transfer specified in each of the Security Instruments, the provisions hereof shall be binding on the heirs, legal representative , s successors and assigns of Borrower and shall inure to the benefit of Lender and the successors and assigns of Lender.

12. Partial Release . Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary contained in this Note , Lender shall consent to a partial prepayment of the principal of this Note and thereafter causing a release from the lien of the applicable Security Instrument any applicable Property, such Property to be released, the "Released Property", but only upon the satisfaction of all of the following conditions :

b. No Event of Default in any of the Security Instruments shall have occurred and be continuing as of the date of such notice and the Release Date and no event or condition shall exist that, with the passage of time or giving of notice, would constitute an Event of Default in any of the Security Instruments;

c. The release shall occur contemporaneously with the sale of the Released Property pursuant to an arm's-length, bona fide contract to a person who is not an affiliate of Borrower or any person or entity with any interest in Borrower, whether direct or indirect;

d. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Release Date an amount equal to the "Release Price" amount as indicated for such Released Property on Exhibit "A" attached to this Note (the "Release Price").

e. Borrower shall have provided Lender with evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that the Released Property has been formally designated as a distinct tax lot separate from the remaining Properties;

Upon the release and termination of Lender's security interests and liens under the applicable Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents relating to the Released Property, all references in the applicable Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents relating to the Released Property shall be deemed deleted, except as otherwise provided herein with respect to indemnities.

All sums due hereunder shall be payable without offset, demand, abatement or counter-claim of any kind or nature whatsoever, all of which are hereby waived by Borrower.

13.2 Fee for Statement . For any statement regarding the obligations evidenced hereby to be furnished by Lender, Borrower shall pay the fee then charged by Lender therefor, not to exceed, however, the maximum fee, if any, allowed by law to be charged by Lender at the time such statement is requested.

13.3 No Amendment or Waiver Except in Writing . This Note may be amended or modified only by a writing duly executed by Borrower and Lender, which expressly refers to this Note and the intent of the parties so to amend this Note. No provision of this Note will be deemed waived by Lender, unless waived in a writing executed by Lender, which expressly refers to this Note, and no such waiver shall be implied from any act or conduct of Lender, or any omission by Lender to take action with respect to any provision of this Note or any of the Security Instruments. No such express written waiver shall affect any other provision of this Note, or cover any default or time period or event, other than the matter as to which an express written waiver has been given. Without limitation, acceptance of any partial payment shall not constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights, including the right to insist on immediate payment of all amounts due and payable.

Promissory Note

13.4 No Intent of Usury . None of the terms and provisions contained in this Note, or in any of the Security Instruments, or in other documents or instruments related hereto, shall ever be construed to create a contract for the use, forbearance or detention of money requiring payment of interest or any other consideration that constitutes interest under applicable law, as the case may be, at a rate in excess of the maximum interest permitted to be charged by applicable laws or regulation governing this Note ("Usury Laws"). Borrower shall never be required to pay interest or any other consideration that constitutes interest under applicable law, as the case may be, on this Note in excess of the maximum interest that may be lawfully charged under such Usury Laws, as made applicable by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, and the provisions of this Section shall control over all other provisions hereof and of any other instrument executed in connection herewith or executed to secure the indebtedness evidenced hereby, which may be in apparent conflict with this Section. If Lender collects monies which are deemed to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the effective interest rate on this Note to a rate in excess of that permitted to be charged by such Usury Laws, all such sums deemed to constitute interest in excess of the maximum rate shall, at the option of Lender, either be credited to the payment of principal or returned to Borrower.

13.5 Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia (without regard to conflicts of laws), except where federal law is applicable (including, without limitation, any applicable federal usury ceiling or other federal law preempting state usury laws).

13.6 Certain Rules of Construction . The headings of each Section of this Note are for convenience only and do not define or limit any provision of this Note. The provisions of this Note shall be construed as a whole according to their common meaning, not strictly for or against any party, or any person or entity, who is or may become liable for the payment of this Note, and to achieve the objectives of the parties unconditionally to impose on Borrower the indebtedness evidenced by this Note. Whenever the words "including", "includes" or "include" are used in this Note (including any Exhibit hereto), they shall be read non-exclusively as though the phrase", without limitation," immediately followed the same.

13.7 Severability . If any term of this Note, or the application thereof to any person or circumstances, shall be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Note, or the application of such term to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term of this Note shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Promissory Note

13.8 Notices . Any notice which a party is required or may desire to give the other shall be in writing and may be sent by personal delivery or by mail (either [i] by United States registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or [ii] by Federal Express or similar generally recognized overnight carrier regularly providing proof of delivery}, addressed as follows (subject to the right of a party to designate a different address for itself by notice similarly given at least 15 days in advance):

Exhibit 10.2

PROMISSORY NOTE SECURED BY DEED OF TRUST

$1,155,000.00	Tennessee
	August 21, 2017

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned (“ Borrower ”) promises to pay to SILVERGATE BANK , a California corporation (“ Lender ”), or order, during regular business hours at Silvergate Bank, 4250 Executive Square, Suite 300, La Jolla, California 92037-1492, Attention: Commercial RE Group, or at such other place as Lender may from time to time designate by written notice to Borrower, with sufficient information to identify the source and application of such payment, the sum of up to One Million One Hundred Fifty-Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,155,000.00), together with interest on the balance of outstanding principal from the disbursement dates thereof at the per annum rate set forth below. All calculations of interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

1. Interest Rate . The outstanding principal balance under this Note shall bear interest at a per annum rate of four and one-half percent (4.50%) (the “ Contract Rate ”).

2. Monthly Payments of Principal and Interest

2.1 First Month . Commencing with the date of the initial disbursement of funds through and including September 4, 2017, in which such disbursement occurs, interest only shall be payable in advance on the date of this Note at the Contract Rate. Interest for such partial month shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and shall be equal to the sum of a per diem interest charge (for each day the principal balance hereof is outstanding during such partial month) equal to the product of (a) 1/360 and (b) the Contract Rate and (c) the outstanding principal balance hereunder for the day in question.

2.2 Monthly Payments . Commencing on October 5, 2017 and continuing on the fifth day of each of the next calendar months thereafter through and including September 5, 2020, Borrower shall pay to Lender monthly payments of principal and interest in an amount equal to the amount which would be sufficient to amortize the outstanding principal balance under this Note (as of the date of such payment) at the then effective Contract Rate over the then remaining portion of an amortization period commencing on September 5, 2017 and ending on September 4, 2042.

3. Maturity Date . The entire balance of principal and accrued interest and other amounts then outstanding on this Note are due and payable on September 5, 2020 (the “ Maturity Date ”). Borrower acknowledges that such balance will not equal the regular monthly payment specified in Section 2.

Promissory Note

4. Application of Payments . Each payment hereunder shall be applied when received first to the payment of accrued interest on the principal balance hereof from time to time remaining unpaid and then to reduce principal and then to amounts payable, if any, into escrow accounts payable under the Loan Documents for taxes or insurance and then to any unpaid “Past Due Charge” (as defined below); provided, however, upon the occurrence of an “Event of Default” (as defined below), payments may be applied to any amounts secured by any of the “Security Instruments” (as defined below) in such order and amounts as is designated by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion. No such application by Lender shall constitute a cure or waiver of any default by Borrower under the applicable Security Instrument or under this Note. If notwithstanding the parties’ election and agreement that Tennessee law governs this Note, California law is applied to this Note, Borrower hereby waives any rights and benefits, if any, that may arise under or by virtue of California Civil Code Section 2822(a). Without limitation of the foregoing, in the event of any partial payment hereunder, Lender shall have the sole right and authority to determine which portion of the indebtedness evidenced hereby any partial payment may be applied against, if any; provided that, nothing in the foregoing shall impose upon Lender any duty or obligation to accept or apply any partial payment received by Lender hereunder or under the applicable Security Instrument.

5. Default; Acceleration . This Note is secured by that certain Deed of Trust, Assignments of Leases and Rents, Security Agreements and Fixture Filings of even date herewith by Borrower for the benefit of Lender (individually, a “ Security Instrument ”, and collectively, the “ Security Instruments ”). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an “ Event of Default ” (as defined in any of the Security Instruments), then, or at any time thereafter, the whole of the unpaid principal hereof, together with accrued and outstanding interest and all other sums required to be paid under this Note or the Security Instruments (including the prepayment premium hereinafter described) shall, at the election of Lender and with prior notice of such election, become due and payable. Lender’s election may be exercised at any time after any such event, and the acceptance of one or more payments hereon from any person thereafter shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s election, or of its option to make such election.

6. Past Due Charge and Past Due Interest Rate . Borrower recognizes and acknowledges that any default on any payment, or portion thereof, due hereunder or to be made under any of the Security Instruments, will result in losses and additional expenses to Lender in servicing the indebtedness evidenced hereby, and in losses due to Lender’s loss of the use of funds not timely received. Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any such default, Lender would be entitled to damages for the detriment proximately caused thereby, but that it would be extremely difficult and impracticable to ascertain the extent of or compute such damages. Therefore, if for any reason Borrower fails to pay any interest or principal required to be paid under this Note, including any payment due at maturity or upon acceleration, or fails to pay any amounts due under any of the Security Instruments, within ten (10) days of when due, Borrower shall pay to Lender, in addition to any such delinquent payment, an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such delinquent payment (“ Past Due Charge ”). In addition, upon the Maturity Date or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (or upon any acceleration), interest shall accrue hereunder at the “Past Due Rate” (as defined below). Borrower acknowledges that the Past Due Charge and interest at the Past Due Rate agreed to hereunder represent the reasonable estimate of those damages which would be incurred by Lender, and a fair return to Lender for the loss of the use of the funds not timely received from Borrower on account of a default by Borrower as herein specified, established by Borrower and Lender through good faith consideration of the facts and circumstances surrounding the transaction contemplated under this Note as of the date hereof, but that such Past Due Charge and interest at the Past Due Rate are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other right or remedy available to Lender. If any applicable law proscribes the imposition of a past due charge in the amount of the Past Due Charge herein specified, or limits the rate of the additional interest that may be charged to a rate less than the Past Due Rate herein specified, then the maximum charge or rate permitted by such law shall be charged by Lender for purposes of this Section. As used herein, the “ Past Due Rate ” shall be equal to the lesser of (i) six (6) percentage points over the Contract Rate, or (ii) the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by applicable laws or regulation governing this Note until paid, such additional interest to be compounded annually.

Promissory Note

7. Prepayment . Except as provided in Section 12 herein, Borrower shall have no right to prepay any principal of this Note except that, so long as no default or Event of Default exists under this Note or any of the Security Instruments as of the date of such prepayment by Borrower, Borrower will have the privilege, to prepay the principal of this Note (in whole only and not in part) upon at least thirty (30) but not more than sixty (60) days advance written notice and subject to the following terms and conditions:

7.1. Premium . Concurrently with such prepayment, Borrower shall pay all accrued and unpaid interest under this Note (whether or not then due), all amounts then due under this Note and each of the Security Instruments and a prepayment premium equal to the following:

(1) A prepayment premium equal to two percent (2%) of the amount prepaid for a prepayment on or before September 5, 2018; and

(2) A prepayment premium equal to one percent (1%) of the amount prepaid for prepayments from and including September 6, 2018 through and including September 5, 2019; with no prepayment premium thereafter.

B. EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS . BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT BORROWER HAS NO RIGHTS OF PREPAYMENT OF THIS NOTE, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED ABOVE; AND BORROWER FURTHER AGREES THAT, IF THE MATURITY OF THIS NOTE IS ACCELERATED BY LENDER BY REASON OF THE EXISTENCE AND CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT AND BORROWER OR ANY THIRD PERSON THEREAFTER SEEKS TO PAY SUCH ACCELERATED INDEBTEDNESS OR PURCHASE ANY OR ALL THE PROPERTIES (INDIVIDUALLY, A “ PROPERTY ”, AND COLLECTIVELY, THE “ PROPERTIES ”) ENCUMBERED BY THE SECURITY INSTRUMENTS SECURING THIS NOTE AT FORECLOSURE SALE, SUCH PAYOFF OR PURCHASE SHALL CONSTITUTE A PREPAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL HEREUNDER AND A PREMIUM SHALL BE PAYABLE IN AN AMOUNT WHICH SHALL BE COMPUTED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 7 (INCLUDING THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM).

Promissory Note

8. Costs . Borrower promises to pay to Lender, within five (5) business days after written notice from Lender, all out-of-pocket costs, expenses, disbursements, property taxes, escrow fees, title charges and legal fees and expenses actually incurred by Lender or its counsel (which must be reasonable provided no Event of Default has occurred and is existing) in the negotiation, funding, enforcement or attempted enforcement, by foreclosure or otherwise, of this Note or any of the Security Instruments. Without limitation on the foregoing, Borrower agrees to pay all out-of-pocket costs of collection, including attorneys’ fees and costs (whether or not for salaried attorneys regularly employed by Lender) and all costs of any action or proceeding (including any bankruptcy proceeding or any non-judicial foreclosure or private sale) actually incurred by Lender, in the event any payment is not paid when due, or in case it becomes necessary to enforce any other obligation of Borrower hereunder or to protect the security for the indebtedness evidenced hereby, or for the foreclosure by Lender of any of the Security Instruments, or in the event Lender is made a party to any litigation because of the existence of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, or because of the existence of any of the Security Instruments. All such costs are secured by the Security Instruments. The obligation of Borrower to repay all such out-of-pocket costs and any other advances by Lender are secured by the Security Instruments and shall be deemed to be evidenced by this Note and shall accrue interest at the Contract Rate or the Past Due Rate, whichever is then applicable.

9. Waivers . Borrower hereby waives diligence, presentment, protest and demand, notice of protest, of demand, of nonpayment, of dishonor and of maturity and agrees that time is of the essence of every provision hereof; and further agrees that any such renewal, extension or modification, or the release or substitution of any person or security for the indebtedness evidenced hereby, shall not affect the liability of any of such parties for the indebtedness evidenced by this Note or the obligations under any of the Security Instruments. Any such renewals, extensions, modifications, releases or substitutions may be made without notice to any of such parties.

10. Remedies Cumulative . The rights and remedies of Lender as provided in this Note and in each of the Security Instruments shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued singly, successively or together against Borrower, any of the Properties, or any other persons or entities who are, or may become liable for all or any part of this indebtedness, and any other funds, property or security held by Lender for the payment hereof, or otherwise, at the sole discretion of Lender. Failure to exercise any such right or remedy shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release of such rights or remedies, or the right to exercise them at any later time. The right, if any, of Borrower, and all other persons or entities, who are, or may become, liable for this indebtedness, to plead any and all statutes of limitation as a defense is expressly waived by each and all of such parties to the full extent permissible by law.

11. Security Instrument Provisions Regarding Transfers; Successors . Each of the Security Instruments securing this Note contains provisions for the acceleration of the indebtedness evidenced hereby upon a “Transfer” (as therein defined). Subject to the limitations on Transfer specified in each of the Security Instruments, the provisions hereof shall be binding on the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of Borrower and shall inure to the benefit of Lender and the successors and assigns of Lender.

Promissory Note

12. Partial Release . Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary contained in this Note, Lender shall consent to a partial prepayment of the principal of this Note and thereafter causing a release from the lien of the applicable Security Instrument any applicable Property, such Property to be released, the “ Released Property ”, but only upon the satisfaction of all of the following conditions:

a. Lender shall have received from Borrower at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice of the date proposed for such release (the “ Release Date ”) and the identification of the Released Property;

d. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Release Date an amount equal to the “Release Price” amount as indicated for such Released Property on Exhibit “A” attached to this Note (the “ Release Price ”). The Release Price shall be applied to the Loan to outstanding principal balance of the Loan (unless an Event of Default exists, in which event, amounts may be applied in such order as determined by Lender, including the applicable prepayment premium);

f. Borrower shall have provided Lender with evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that the Released Property and the remaining portion of the Properties shall be legal lots or parcels in material compliance with the all Tennessee subdivision acts and local ordinances thereunder and that the remaining portion of the Property has adequate ingress and egress;

Promissory Note

Upon payment of the Release Price and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in this Section 12 for the release of the Released Property, the security interests and liens of Lender under the applicable Security Instrument shall be released from the Released Property, and Lender will execute and deliver, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, any agreements reasonably requested by Borrower to release and terminate the lien of the applicable Security Instrument as to the Released Property; provided , however , that such release and termination shall be without recourse to Lender and made without any representation or warranty, but, in any event, in standard form that should be reasonably sufficient to remove the lien of the Security Instruments as an exception on the purchaser’s owner’s title insurance policy for the Released Property. Upon the release and termination of Lender's security interests and liens under the applicable Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents relating to the Released Property, all references in the applicable Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents relating to the Released Property shall be deemed deleted, except as otherwise provided herein with respect to indemnities.

13. Miscellaneous .

13.1 Manner of Payment; No Offsets . All payments due hereunder shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. Such payments shall be made by check or, upon maturity and otherwise at the option of Lender, by transferring the payment in federal or immediately available funds by bank wire or interbank transfer for the account of Lender without presentment or surrender of this Note, provided; however, that any payment of principal or interest received after 5:00 p.m. Pacific time shall be deemed to have been received by Lender on the next business day and shall bear interest accordingly.

13.2 Fee for Statement .

This Note may be amended or modified only by a writing duly executed by Borrower and Lender, which expressly refers to this Note and the intent of the parties so to amend this Note. No provision of this Note will be deemed waived by Lender, unless waived in a writing executed by Lender, which expressly refers to this Note, and no such waiver shall be implied from any act or conduct of Lender, or any omission by Lender to take action with respect to any provision of this Note or any of the Security Instruments. No such express written waiver shall affect any other provision of this Note, or cover any default or time period or event, other than the matter as to which an express written waiver has been given. Without limitation, acceptance of any partial payment shall not constitute a waiver of any of Lender’s rights, including the right to insist on immediate payment of all amounts due and payable.

Promissory Note

13.4 No Intent of Usury . None of the terms and provisions contained in this Note, or in any of the Security Instruments, or in other documents or instruments related hereto, shall ever be construed to create a contract for the use, forbearance or detention of money requiring payment of interest or any other consideration that constitutes interest under applicable law, as the case may be, at a rate in excess of the maximum interest permitted to be charged by applicable laws or regulation governing this Note (“ Usury Laws ”). Borrower shall never be required to pay interest or any other consideration that constitutes interest under applicable law, as the case may be, on this Note in excess of the maximum interest that may be lawfully charged under such Usury Laws, as made applicable by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, and the provisions of this Section shall control over all other provisions hereof and of any other instrument executed in connection herewith or executed to secure the indebtedness evidenced hereby, which may be in apparent conflict with this Section. If Lender collects monies which are deemed to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the effective interest rate on this Note to a rate in excess of that permitted to be charged by such Usury Laws, all such sums deemed to constitute interest in excess of the maximum rate shall, at the option of Lender, either be credited to the payment of principal or returned to Borrower.

13.5 Governing Law . This Note shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Tennessee (without regard to conflicts of laws), except where federal law is applicable (including, without limitation, any applicable federal usury ceiling or other federal law preempting state usury laws).

13.6 Certain Rules of Construction . The headings of each Section of this Note are for convenience only and do not define or limit any provision of this Note. The provisions of this Note shall be construed as a whole according to their common meaning, not strictly for or against any party, or any person or entity, who is or may become liable for the payment of this Note, and to achieve the objectives of the parties unconditionally to impose on Borrower the indebtedness evidenced by this Note. Whenever the words “including”, “includes” or “include” are used in this Note (including any Exhibit hereto), they shall be read non-exclusively as though the phrase “, without limitation,” immediately followed the same.

13.7 Severability . If any term of this Note, or the application thereof to any person or circumstances, shall be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Note, or the application of such term to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term of this Note shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Promissory Note

13.8 Notices . Any notice which a party is required or may desire to give the other shall be in writing and may be sent by personal delivery or by mail (either [i] by United States registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or [ii] by Federal Express or similar generally recognized overnight carrier regularly providing proof of delivery), addressed as follows (subject to the right of a party to designate a different address for itself by notice similarly given at least 15 days in advance):
