 We utilize real-time market data, leading third-party research, and the deep transactional knowledge and collective experiences of our network. |

| · | Local Market Knowledge. Our breadth and depth of professional relationships, particularly within our network, provides us with access to substantial and often proprietary coveted off-market opportunities within our target markets. Further, we are able to leverage the local market knowledge of our network to fully evaluate not only a particular submarket’s supply and demand fundamentals, but a property’s competitive position from a neighborhood perspective. |

| · | Underwriting Discipline. We follow a disciplined double underwriting process to examine and evaluate a potential investment in terms of its income-producing capacity and prospects for capital appreciation. Our approach begins with an extensive review of the following: (1) property fundamentals, such as location, expense structure, occupancy, construction quality and deferred maintenance; (2) capital markets fundamentals, including cap rates, debt markets and future capital flows; and (3) market fundamentals, such as rental rates, concession and occupancy levels at comparable properties, along with projected product delivery and absorption rates. We will then utilize our double underwriting approach to verify and refine all assumptions provided by leveraging the local market knowledge and expertise of members of our network. Only those real estate assets meeting our investment criteria will be accepted for inclusion in our portfolio. |

| · | Risk Management. Risk management is a fundamental principle in the construction of our portfolio and in the management of each investment. Prior to the purchase of any individual asset or portfolio, our investment team will develop a ‘360-degree’ asset-level business strategy. The business strategy consists of a detailed forecast of the action items to be taken and the capital needed to achieve the anticipated returns. We regularly review asset-level business strategies to anticipate changes or opportunities in the market during a given phase of a real estate cycle. In addition, we conduct extensive property level diligence leveraging our joint venture partners and third-party experts, including reviewing title and performing physical inspections. |

acquisitions and dispositions, we generally consider a variety of factors, including both market-level factors and property-level factors.

migration of the relevant market’s population; and barriers to entry that would limit competition (zoning laws, building permit
availability, supply of undeveloped or developable real estate and local building costs and construction costs). Property-level factors
include: the location, construction
