 Exhibit 10.6 
 GUARANTY OF NON-RECOURSE OBLIGATIONS 
 This GUARANTY OF NON-RECOURSE
OBLIGATIONS (this “Guaranty”), dated as of December 22, 2011, is executed by the undersigned (“Guarantor”), to and for the benefit of PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association
(“Lender”). 
 RECITALS: 
 A. Pursuant to that certain Multifamily Loan and Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof, by and between SIR TRUMAN FARM, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Borrower”),
and Lender (as amended, restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), Lender is making a loan to Borrower in the original principal amount of Five Million Nine Hundred Fifteen
Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($5,915,000.00) (the “Mortgage Loan”), as evidenced by that certain Multifamily Note dated as of the date hereof, executed by Borrower and made payable to the order of Lender in the amount of the Mortgage
Loan (as amended, restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Note”). 
 B.
The Note will be secured by, among other things, a Security Instrument (as defined in the Loan Agreement) encumbering the real property described in the Security Instrument (the “Property”). 

C. Guarantor has an economic interest in Borrower or will otherwise obtain a material financial benefit from the Mortgage Loan.

 D. As a condition to making the Mortgage Loan to Borrower, Lender requires that Guarantor execute this Guaranty. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in order to induce Lender to make the Mortgage Loan to Borrower, and in consideration thereof, Guarantor agrees as
follows: 
 AGREEMENTS: 
 1. Recitals. 
 The recitals set forth above are incorporated herein by
reference as if fully set forth in the body of this Guaranty. 
 2. Defined Terms. 

Capitalized terms used and not specifically defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Loan Agreement.

 3. Guaranteed Obligations. 
 Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Lender the full and prompt payment and performance when due, whether at maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration or
otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of: 
 (a) all amounts, obligations and liabilities owed to Lender under Article 3
(Personal Liability) of the Loan Agreement (including the payment and performance of all indemnity obligations of Borrower described in Section 3.03 (Personal Liability for Indemnity Obligations) of the Loan Agreement and including all of
Borrower’s obligations under the Environmental Indemnity Agreement); and 
 (b) all costs and expenses, including
reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses, incurred by Lender in enforcing its rights under this Guaranty. 

4. Survival of Guaranteed Obligations. 
 The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall survive any Foreclosure Event, and any recorded release or reconveyance of the Security Instrument or any release of any other security for any of
the Indebtedness. 
 5. Guaranty of Payment; Community Property. 
 Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty constitute a present and unconditional guaranty of payment and not merely a guaranty of collection. If Guarantor (or any Guarantor, if more than one) is a
married person, and the state of residence of Guarantor or Guarantor’s spouse is a community property jurisdiction, Guarantor (or each such married Guarantor, if more than one) agrees that Lender may satisfy Guarantor’s obligations under
this Guaranty to the extent of all Guarantor’s separate property and Guarantor’s interest in any community property. 
 6.
Obligations Unsecured; Cross-Default. 
 The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be secured by the
Security Instrument or the Loan Agreement. However, a default under this Guaranty shall be an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement, and a default under this Guaranty shall entitle Lender to be able to exercise all of its rights and remedies
under the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents. 
 7. Continuing Guaranty. 

The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be unconditional irrespective of the genuineness, validity, regularity or
enforceability of any provision of this Guaranty, the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Security Instrument or any other Loan Document. Guarantor agrees that performance of the obligations hereunder shall be a primary obligation, shall not be subject to
any counterclaim, set-off, recoupment, abatement, deferment or defense based upon any claim that Guarantor may have against Lender, Borrower, any other guarantor of the obligations

hereunder or any other person or entity, and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, discharged or affected in any way by any circumstance or condition
(whether or not Guarantor shall have any knowledge thereof), including: 
 (a) any furnishing, exchange, substitution or release
of any collateral securing repayment of the Mortgage Loan, or any failure to perfect any lien in such collateral;

omission or delay on the part of Lender to perfect, enforce, assert or exercise any lien, security interest, right, power or remedy conferred upon it in any of the Loan Documents, or any other action or inaction on the part of Lender; 

(d) any Bankruptcy Event, or any voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, assignment
for the benefit of creditors, composition, receivership, liquidation, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar events or proceedings with respect to Guarantor or any other guarantor of the obligations hereunder, or any of their respective
property or creditors or any action taken by any trustee or receiver or by any court in such proceeding; 
 (e) any merger or
consolidation of Borrower into or with any entity or any sale, lease or Transfer of any asset of Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of the obligations hereunder to any other Person; 

(f) any change in the ownership of Borrower or any change in the relationship between Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of the
obligations hereunder, or any termination of such relationship; 
 (g) any release or discharge by operation of law of Borrower,
Guarantor or any other guarantor of the obligations hereunder, any obligation or agreement contained in any of the Loan Documents; or 
 (h) any other occurrence, circumstance, happening or event, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, and whether seen or unforeseen, which otherwise might constitute a legal or equitable defense or
discharge of the liabilities of a guarantor or surety or which otherwise might limit recourse against Borrower or Guarantor to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 11. Subordination of Affiliated Debt. 

Any indebtedness of Borrower held by Guarantor now or in the future is and shall be subordinated to the Indebtedness and any such
indebtedness of Borrower shall be collected, enforced and received by Guarantor, as trustee for Lender, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty. 

12. Subrogation. 

Guarantor shall have no right of, and hereby waives any claim for, subrogation or reimbursement against Borrower or any general partner of
Borrower by reason of any payment by Guarantor under this Guaranty, whether such right or claim arises at law or in equity or under any contract or statute, until the Indebtedness has been paid in full and there has expired the maximum possible
period thereafter during which any payment made by Borrower to Lender with respect to the Indebtedness could be deemed a preference under the Insolvency Laws. 
 13. Voidable Transfer. 
 If any payment by Borrower is held to constitute a
preference under any Insolvency Laws or similar laws, or if for any other reason Lender is required to refund any sums to Borrower, such refund shall not constitute a release of any liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty. It is the intention of
Lender and Guarantor that Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty shall not be discharged except by Guarantor’s performance of such obligations and then only to the extent of such performance. If any payment by any Guarantor should for
any reason subsequently be declared to be void or voidable under any state or federal law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Insolvency Laws relating to a Voidable Transfer, and if Lender is required to repay or restore,
in whole or in part, any such Voidable Transfer, or elects to do so upon the advice of its counsel, then the obligations guaranteed hereunder shall automatically be revived, reinstated and restored by the amount of such Voidable Transfer or the
amount of such Voidable Transfer that Lender is required or elects to repay or restore, including all reasonable costs, expenses and legal fees incurred by Lender in connection therewith, and shall exist as though such Voidable Transfer had never
been made, and any other guarantor, if any, shall remain liable for such obligations in full.

period, to obtain a credit report (if applicable) on Guarantor, the cost of which shall be paid for by Guarantor. Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that Lender is authorized to obtain a Credit Score (if applicable) for Guarantor at any time at
Lender’s expense. 
 15. Financial Reporting.

 Guarantor acknowledges that Lender (including its successors and assigns) may sell or transfer the Mortgage Loan, or any interest in the Mortgage Loan. 

(a) Guarantor shall: 
 (1) do anything necessary to comply with the requirements of Lender or any Investor of the Mortgage Loan or provide, or cause to be provided, to Lender or any Investor of the Mortgage Loan, at

(1) changing the essential economic terms of the Mortgage Loan set forth in the related commitment letter between Borrower
and Lender; or 
 (2) imposing on Borrower or Guarantor greater personal liability under the Loan Documents than
that set forth in the related commitment letter between Borrower and Lender. 
 17. Successors and Assigns. 

Lender may assign its rights under this Guaranty in whole or in part and, upon any such assignment, all the terms and provisions of this
Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of such assignee to the extent so assigned. Guarantor may not assign its rights, duties and obligations under this Guaranty, in whole or in part, without Lender’s prior written consent and any such assignment
shall be deemed void ab initio. The terms used to designate any of the parties herein shall be deemed to include the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of such parties.
