BERKSHIRE INCOME REALTY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

1.
ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Berkshire Income Realty, Inc. (the “Company”), a Maryland corporation, was incorporated on July 19, 2002 and 100 Class B common shares were issued upon organization.  The Company is in the business of acquiring, owning, operating, developing and rehabilitating multifamily apartment communities.  As of June 30, 2013, the Company owned, or had an interest in, 20 multifamily apartment communities consisting of 5,499 total apartment units and one multifamily development project. The Company conducts its business through Berkshire Income Realty-OP, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership").

The Company elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under Section 856 of the Tax Code (the "Code"), with the filing of its first tax return. As a result, the Company generally is not subject to federal corporate income tax on its taxable income that is distributed to its shareholders. A REIT is subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its annual taxable income. The Company's policy is to make sufficient distributions of its taxable income to meet the REIT distribution requirements. The Company must also meet other operational requirements with respect to its investments, assets and income. The Company monitors these various requirements on a quarterly basis and believes that as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, it was in compliance on all such requirements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. ASU 2011-04 clarifies some existing concepts, eliminates wording differences between accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), and in some limited cases, changes some principles to achieve convergence between GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 results in a consistent definition of fair value and common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 also expands the disclosures for fair value measurements that are estimated using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs. ASU 2011-04 became effective for the Company on January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material effect on the Company's operating results, financial position, or disclosures.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in ASU 2011-05, which deferred the new requirement to present components of reclassifications of other comprehensive income on the face of the income statement. Both ASU 2011-05 and ASU 2011-12 became effective for the Company on January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 and ASU 2011-12 did not have any effect on the Company's operating results, financial position, or disclosures.

Unaudited interim consolidated financial statements

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited; however, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring matters) necessary for a fair statement for the interim periods have been included.  The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for other interim periods or for the full fiscal year. The interim financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss)

For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, comprehensive income (loss) equaled net income (loss).  Therefore, the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and Loss required to be presented has been omitted from the consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period balances have been reclassified in order to conform to the current period presentation.

Out of period adjustment

During the third quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company recorded out of period adjustments that (i) decreased interest expense by an aggregate of $341,368 to reflect additional capitalization of interest relating to the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012 of $154,356 and $187,012, respectively, and (ii) reduced incentive advisory fees expense by $90,235 relating to an over accrual for such expenses during the three month period ended June 30, 2012.  The cumulative effect of out of period adjustments for the year ended December 31, 2012 was a $431,603 decrease in the net loss.  The Company has determined that these adjustments did not have an impact on any prior annual period and were not material to any prior interim periods, and the resulting correction is not material.

Distributions of $1,651,800 have been adjusted from Accumulated Deficit to Noncontrolling Interest-Operating Partnership to properly reflect such amounts within the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Deficit for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Management has determined such adjustment to be immaterial to the overall financial statements.

The Company accounts for its acquisitions of investments in real estate in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805-10, which requires the fair value of the real estate acquired to be allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of the above-market and below-market leases, the value of in-place leases and the value of other tenant relationships, based in each case on their fair values. The value of in-place leases and tenant relationships is determined based on the specific expiration dates of the in-place leases and amortized over a period of 12 months and the tenant relationships are based on the straight-line method of amortization over a 24-month period.

3.     INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED MULTIFAMILY ENTITIES

INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

On August 12, 2005, the Company, together with affiliates and other unaffiliated parties, entered into a subscription agreement to invest in the Berkshire Multifamily Value Fund, L.P. (“BVF”), an affiliate of Berkshire Property Advisors, L.L.C. (“Berkshire Advisor” or the “Advisor”).  Under the terms of the agreement and the related limited partnership agreement, the Company and its affiliates agreed to invest up to $25,000,000, or approximately 7%, of the total capital of the partnership.  The Company’s final commitment under the subscription agreement with BVF totaled $23,400,000.  BVF’s investment strategy was to acquire middle-market properties where there is an opportunity to add value through repositioning or rehabilitation.

10

In accordance with ASC 810-10 issued by FASB as amended by ASU 2009-17 related to the consolidation of variable interest entities, the Company has performed an analysis of its investment in BVF to determine whether it would qualify as a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and whether it should be consolidated or accounted for as an equity investment in an unconsolidated joint venture.  As a result of the Company’s qualitative assessment to determine whether its investment in BVF is a VIE, the Company determined that the investment is a VIE based upon the fact that the holders of the equity investment at risk lack the power, through voting or similar rights to direct the activities of BVF that most significantly impact BVF’s economic performance.  Under the terms of the limited partnership agreement of BVF, the general partner of BVF has the full, exclusive and complete right, power, authority, discretion, obligation and responsibility to make all decisions affecting the business of BVF.

After making the determination that its investment in BVF was a VIE, the Company performed an assessment of which partner would be considered the primary beneficiary of BVF and therefore would be required to consolidate BVF’s balance sheets and result of operations.  This assessment was based upon which entity (1) had the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of BVF, and (2) had the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of BVF that could potentially be significant to the entity based upon the terms of the partnership and management agreements of BVF.  As a result of fees paid to an affiliate of the general partner of BVF for asset management and other services, the Company has determined that the general partner of BVF has the obligation to absorb the losses or the right to receive benefits of BVF while retaining the power to make significant decisions for BVF.  Based upon this understanding, the Company concluded that the general partner of BVF should consolidate BVF and as such, the Company accounts for its investment in BVF as an equity investment in an unconsolidated joint venture.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had invested 100% of its total committed capital amount of $23,400,000 in BVF for an ownership interest of approximately 7% and had received distributions from BVF of $1,400,150, or approximately 6%, of its committed capital.

This amount represents the difference between the Company’s investment in BVF and its share of the underlying equity in the net assets of BVF (adjusted to conform with GAAP).  At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the differential related mainly to $583,240 which represents the Company’s share of syndication costs incurred by BVF, which was not an item required to be funded via a capital investment by the Company.

(2)
Per the partnership agreement of BVF, the Company’s liability is limited to its investment in BVF.  The Company does not guarantee any third-party debt held by BVF.  The Company has fully funded its obligations under the partnership agreement as of June 30, 2013 and has no commitment to make additional contributions to BVF.


11

The Company evaluates the carrying value of its investment in BVF for impairment periodically and records impairment charges when events or circumstances change indicating that a decline in the fair values below the carrying values has occurred and such decline is other-than-temporary.  No such other-than-temporary impairment charges have been recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2013 or twelve months ended December 31, 2012.

The Company has determined that its valuation of the real estate was categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy in accordance with ASC 820-10, as it utilized significant unobservable inputs in its assessment.

(2)
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, BVF recorded a net gain on the disposition of eight properties. The gain on the sale was $28,127,294, of which the Company's share was approximately $1,967,000 and is reflected in the "Equity in income (loss) of unconsolidated multifamily entities" for the six months ended June 30, 2012. There were no dispositions of property by BVF during the six months ended June 30, 2013.

INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY

On March 2, 2011, the Operating Partnership executed an agreement with Berkshire Multifamily Value Fund II ("BVF-II"), an affiliated entity, to create a joint venture, BIR/BVF-II NoMa JV, L.L.C. ("NoMa JV"), to participate in and take an ownership position in a real estate development project. BVF-II is the managing member of NoMa JV and has a percentage ownership interest of approximately 67% while the Operating Partnership has a percentage ownership interest of approximately 33%.

Also on March 2, 2011, NoMa JV acquired a 90% interest in NOMA Residential West I, LLC. (“NOMA Residential”).  NOMA Residential has developed and is operating a 603-unit multifamily apartment community in Washington, D.C. (the "NoMa Project"). The remaining 10% interest in NOMA Residential is owned by the developer, an unrelated third party (the “NoMa Developer”).  The governing agreements for NOMA Residential give the NoMa Developer the authority to manage the construction and development of, and subsequent to completion, the day-to-day operations of NOMA Residential.  The agreement also provides for fees to the NoMa Developer, limits the authority of the NoMa Developer and provides for distributions based on percentage interest and thereafter in accordance with achievement of economic hurdles. The NoMa Project was completed as of June 30, 2013.

In accordance with ASC 810-10, as amended by ASU 2009-17, related to the consolidation of variable interest entities, the Company has performed an analysis of its investment in NoMa JV to determine whether it would qualify as a VIE and whether it should be consolidated or accounted for as an equity investment in an unconsolidated joint venture. As a result of the Company's qualitative assessment to determine whether its investment is a VIE, the Company determined that the investment is a VIE based upon the holders of the equity investment at risk lacking the power, through voting rights or similar rights to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance.  Under the terms of the limited liability company agreement of NoMa JV, the managing member has the full, exclusive and complete right, power, authority, discretion, obligation and responsibility to make all decisions affecting the business of NoMa JV.

After making the determination that its investment in NoMa JV was a VIE, the Company performed an assessment of which partner would be considered the primary beneficiary of NoMa JV and would be required to consolidate the VIE's balance sheet and results of operations. This assessment was based upon which entity (1) had the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of NoMa JV, and (2) had the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of NoMa JV that could

12

potentially be significant to the VIE based upon the terms of the partnership and management agreements of NoMa JV.  Because the managing member owns two-thirds of the entity and all profits and losses are split pro-rata in accordance with capital accounts, the Company has determined that the managing member has the obligation to absorb the losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE while retaining the power to make significant decisions for NoMa JV.  Based upon this understanding, the Company concluded that the managing member should consolidate NoMa JV and as such, the Company accounts for its investment in NoMa JV as an equity investment in an unconsolidated joint venture.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had invested 100% of its total committed capital amount of $14,520,000 in NoMa JV for an ownership interest of approximately 33% and had recorded $1,710,327 of capitalized interest on the investment. The Company's maximum exposure to loss in NoMa JV is its investment of capital of $14,520,000.

4.    MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE

On March 31, 2011, the Operating Partnership, through the joint venture ("JV 2020 Lawrence") formed with its subsidiary, BIR 2020 Lawrence, L.L.C. ("BIR 2020"), Zocalo Community Development, Inc. ("Zocalo") and JB 2020, LLC, entered into an agreement for fixed rate construction-to-permanent financing totaling up to $45,463,100, which is collateralized by the related property and is insured by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD").  The construction loan was converted to permanent financing on June 27, 2013 with a term of 40 years and has a fixed interest rate of 5.00%.  The loan will mature on February 1, 2053. The proceeds of the financing were used to develop a mid-rise multifamily apartment building in Denver, Colorado (the "2020 Lawrence Project").  As of June 30, 2013, the Company received proceeds pursuant to the loan of $45,463,100, of which $2,770,663 was received during the six months ended June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2013, the outstanding balance on the loan was $45,312,894.

The Company determines the fair value of the mortgage notes payable in accordance with authoritative guidance related to fair value measurement and is based on the discounted future cash flows at a discount rate that approximates the Company’s current effective borrowing rate for comparable loans (other observable inputs or Level 3 inputs, as defined by the authoritative guidance). For purposes of determining fair value, the Company groups its debt by similar maturity date for purposes of obtaining comparable loan information in order to determine fair values.  In addition, the Company also considers the loan-to-value percentage of individual loans to determine if further stratification of the loans is appropriate in the valuation model.   Debt in excess of 80% loan-to-value is considered similar to mezzanine debt and is valued using a greater interest spread than the average debt pool.  Based on this analysis, the Company has determined that the fair value of the mortgage notes payable approximated $497,399,000 and $543,557,000 at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

5.    REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY - AFFILIATE

On June 30, 2005, the Company obtained new financing in the form of a revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility in the amount of $20,000,000 was provided by an affiliate of the Company. The credit facility was amended on May 31, 2007 to add additional terms to the credit facility ("Amendment No. 1"), on February 17, 2011 to add an amendment period with a temporary increase in the commitment amount to $40,000,000 ("Amendment No. 2"), and on May 24, 2011 to increase the commitment fee ("Amendment No. 3"). The credit facility provides for interest on borrowings at a rate of 5% above the 30 day LIBOR rate, as announced by Reuter's, and fees based on borrowings under the credit facility and various operational and financial covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio and a maximum debt service ratio. The agreement had a maturity date of December 31, 2006, with a one-time six-month extension available at the option of the Company. The terms of the credit facility were agreed upon through negotiations and were approved by the Audit Committee (which committee is comprised of our three directors who are independent under applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the NYSE MKT LLC) ("Audit Committee"). Subsequent to its exercise of extension rights, the Company on May 31, 2007 executed Amendment No.1 that provides for an extension of the maturity date by replacing the then current maturity date of June 30, 2007 with a 60-day notice of termination provision by which the lender can affect a termination of the commitment under the agreement and render all outstanding amounts due and payable. Amendment No. 1 also added a clean-up requirement to the agreement, which requires the borrower to repay in full all outstanding loans and have no outstanding obligations under the agreement for a 14 consecutive day period during each 365-day period. The clean-up requirement for the current 365-day period was satisfied on November 20, 2012.

On February 17, 2011, the Company executed Amendment No. 2 which provides for a temporary modification of certain provisions of the credit facility during a period commencing with the date of execution and ending on July 31, 2012 (the "Amendment Period"), subject to extension. During the Amendment Period, certain provisions of the facility were modified and included: an increase in the amount of the commitment from $20,000,000 to $40,000,000; elimination of the leverage ratio covenant and clean-up requirement (each as defined in the revolving credit facility agreement); and computation and payment of interest on a quarterly basis. At the conclusion of the Amendment Period, including extensions, the provisions modified pursuant to Amendment No. 2 reverted back to the provisions of the revolving credit facility agreement prior to the Amendment Period.

On May 24, 2011, the Company executed Amendment No. 3 which limits the total commitment fee provided for in the agreement to be no greater than $400,000 in the aggregate.

On July 31, 2012, the provisions of the Amendment Period, as described above, expired as the Company did not exercise the extension provision to the Amendment Period of the revolving credit facility, as provided for in Amendment No. 2. As a result, the specific provisions, which had been modified pursuant to Amendment No. 2, reverted back to the original provisions of the revolving credit facility agreement prior to the Amendment Period.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company borrowed $1,627,000 and $0, respectively, under the revolving credit facility and repaid $1,627,000 and $7,349,422 of advances, respectively, during the same periods.  The Company incurred

14

interest charges of $32,981 and $114,908 related to the credit facility during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company did not pay any commitment fees during the six months ended June 30, 2013 or 2012. There was no outstanding balance under the credit facility as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. 

The Company determines the fair value of the revolving credit facility in accordance with authoritative guidance related to fair value measurement. The Company has determined that as a result of the 60-day termination notice provision of the revolving credit facility that requires payment of all outstanding balances upon notification by the lender (other observable inputs or Level 3 inputs, as defined by the authoritative guidance), that the fair value of the revolving credit facility approximated the outstanding principal balance of the revolving credit facility at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

6.    NOTE PAYABLE - OTHER

On June 12, 2012, Zocalo, the managing member of JV 2020 Lawrence, entered into a financing agreement with the State of Colorado, through the Colorado Energy Office, for $1,250,000 (the "Colorado Energy Loan") to be used for inclusion of energy efficient components in the construction of the 2020 Lawrence Project. The Colorado Energy Loan has a term of 10 years and an interest rate of 5% per annum. The Colorado Energy Loan will mature on June 11, 2022. Zocalo has pledged all of its membership interests, both currently owned and subsequently acquired, in JV 2020 Lawrence as collateral for the Colorado Energy Loan. Pursuant to an authorizing resolution adopted by the members of JV 2020 Lawrence, Zocalo advanced the proceeds of the Colorado Energy Loan, as received from time to time, to JV 2020 Lawrence for application to the 2020 Lawrence Project. Such advances to JV 2020 Lawrence will not be considered contributions of capital to JV 2020 Lawrence. Also, Zocalo is authorized and directed to cause JV 2020 Lawrence to repay such advances, including principal and interest, made by Zocalo at such times as required by the Colorado Energy Loan. Any payments pursuant to the authorizing resolution shall be payable only from surplus cash of the 2020 Lawrence Project as defined by HUD in the governing regulatory agreement of the primary financing on the project as described above. If surplus cash is not available to satisfy Zocalo's payment obligations under the Colorado Energy Loan, then either Zocalo or BIR 2020 may issue a funding notice, pursuant to the JV 2020 Lawrence limited liability company agreement, for payment obligation amounts due and payable. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the outstanding balance on the Colorado Energy Loan was $1,250,000.

Based on the fair value analysis using the same method as described in Note 4 - Mortgage Notes Payable, the Company has determined that the fair value of the "Note payable - other" approximated $1,312,000 and $1,357,000 at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

7.    EQUITY / DEFICIT

On March 25, 2003, the Board of Directors (“Board”) declared a dividend at an annual rate of 9%, on the stated liquidation preference of $25 per share of the outstanding 9% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Preferred Shares") which is payable quarterly in arrears, on February 15, May 15, August 15, and November 15 of each year to shareholders of record in the amount of $0.5625 per share per quarter.  For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s aggregate dividends on the Preferred Shares totaled $3,350,388 and $3,350,389, respectively, of which $837,607 was payable and included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in "Dividends and distributions payable" as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company made tax payments of $300,000 and $0, respectively, on behalf of the noncontrolling interest holders in properties as required by the taxing authorities of the jurisdictions in which the Company owns and operates properties, of which $0 and $300,000 was payable and included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in "Dividends and distributions payable" as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company made tax payments of $1,138,750 and $1,651,800 on behalf of the noncontrolling interest partners in Operating Partnership as required by the taxing authorities of the jurisdictions in which the Company owns and operates properties. The payments were treated as distributions attributable to the noncontrolling interest in Operating Partnership and are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Deficit.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Board did not authorize the general partner of the Operating Partnership to distribute any quarterly distributions to common general and common limited partners or a common dividend on the Company’s Class B common stock.

The Company’s policy to provide for common distributions is based on available cash and Board approval.

9.     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is party to certain legal actions arising in the ordinary course of its business, such as those relating to tenant issues.  All such proceedings taken together are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.  While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the final outcome of such legal proceedings and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, financial position or results of operations.

The Company has commitments to two joint venture multifamily development projects as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

•
The NoMa Project is a 603-unit mid-rise multifamily apartment development project in Washington, D.C.  The Company has a 30% interest in the joint venture and has made a commitment to invest approximately $14.5 million in the project.  As of June 30, 2013, the Company has invested 100% of its total committed capital amount. The Company accounts for its investment in the NoMa Project as an equity method investment. As of June 30, 2013, construction of the NoMa Project is complete.

•
The second project is a 154-unit multifamily apartment development project in Walnut Creek, California (the "Walnut Creek Project"). The Company will own a 98% interest in the project once fully committed and its current total commitment in the joint venture is approximately $16.9 million. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has made capital contributions

16

totaling approximately $1,043,000. The Walnut Creek Project was delayed due to environmental and regulatory requirements, among other things. The Company is currently reviewing a revised development budget, which reflects revisions in construction costs and operating assumptions. The construction is projected to start in the fourth quarter of 2013. The Company consolidates its investment in the Walnut Creek Project.

The Advisory Services Amendment became effective January 1, 2010 and provides for an incentive advisory fee based on the increase in fair value of the Company, as calculated and approved by management, over the base value established as of December 31, 2009 ("Base Value").  The Company is required to accrue incentive advisory fees payable to Berkshire Advisor up to 12% of the increase in fair value of the Company above the established Base Value.  The Company has recorded $1,373,780 and $1,799,978 of incentive advisory fees during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The foregoing risks are not exhaustive.  Other sections of this report may include additional factors that could adversely affect our business and financial performance.  Moreover, we operate in a competitive and rapidly changing environment.  New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risks factors, nor can it assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.  Given these risks and uncertainties, undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.

As used herein, the terms “we”, “us” or the “Company” refer to Berkshire Income Realty, Inc., a Maryland corporation, incorporated on July 19, 2002.  The Company is in the business of acquiring, owning, operating, developing and renovating multifamily apartment communities.  Berkshire Property Advisors, L.L.C. (“Berkshire Advisor” or “Advisor”) is an affiliated entity we have contracted with to make decisions relating to the day-to-day management and operation of our business, subject to the oversight of the Company’s Board of Directors ("Board").  Refer to Part III, Item 13 - Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence and Part IV, Item 15 - Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 13 - Related Party Transactions of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the SEC, for additional information about the Advisor.

Overview

The Company is engaged primarily in the acquisition, ownership, operation, development and rehabilitation of multifamily apartment communities in the Baltimore/Washington D.C., Southeast, Southwest, Northwest and Western areas of the United States. We conduct substantially all of our business and own, either directly or through subsidiaries, substantially all of our assets through Berkshire Income Realty-OP, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Operating Partnership").  The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, BIR GP, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership.

As of August 13, 2013, the Company owns 100% of the preferred limited partner units of the Operating Partnership, whose terms mirror the terms of the Company’s Series A 9% Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock and, through BIR GP, L.L.C., owns 100% of the general partner interest of the Operating Partnership, which represents approximately 2.39% of the common economic interest of the Operating Partnership.


20

Our general and limited partner interests in the Operating Partnership entitle us to share in cash distributions from, and in the profits and losses of, the Operating Partnership in proportion to our percentage interest therein. The other partners of the Operating Partnership are affiliates who contributed their direct or indirect interests in certain properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership.

Our highlights of the six months ended June 30, 2013 included the following:

On February 6, 2013, the Company borrowed $1,627,000 on the revolving credit facility - affiliate. The proceeds of the borrowing were used to fund the ongoing development activities of the Company.

On June 25, 2013, the Company completed the sale of Walden Pond and Gables of Texas, both located in Houston, Texas, to an unaffiliated buyer. The combined sale price was $31,500,000 and was subject to normal operating prorations and adjustments as provided for in the purchase and sale agreement.

Also on June 25, 2013, the Company repaid $1,627,000 of principal on the revolving credit facility - affiliate. The repayment was made from proceeds resulting from the sale of the Walden Pond and Gables of Texas properties.

General

The Company detailed a number of significant trends and specific factors affecting the real estate industry in general and the Company’s business in particular in Part II, Item 7 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.  The Company believes those trends and factors continue to be relevant to the Company’s performance and financial condition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and Cash Flows

As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had $20,782,083 and $12,224,361 of cash and cash equivalents, respectively.  Cash provided and used by the Company for three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, cash increased by $8,557,722.  The overall increase was due primarily to proceeds received from sale of Walden Pond and Gables of Texas of $30,958,927 and borrowings from the mortgage notes payable of $2,770,663. The increase was partially offset by prepayments of mortgage notes payable of $14,833,286 and capital expenditures of $9,405,207, related to renovation and development related activities of $7,403,662 and recurring capital expenditures of $2,001,545, and the Company's regular quarterly distributions to its preferred shareholders totaling $3,350,388, in addition to $1,138,750 of distributions to noncontrolling interest partners in Operating Partnership.

The Company's principal liquidity demands are expected to be distributions to our preferred and common shareholders and Operating Partnership unitholders based on availability of cash and approval of the Board, capital improvements, rehabilitation projects, ongoing development projects, repairs and maintenance for the properties, debt repayment, and acquisition and development of additional properties within the investment restrictions placed on it by BVF III.

The Company intends to meet its short-term liquidity requirements through net cash flows provided by operating activities and advances from the revolving credit facility. The Company considers its ability to generate cash to be adequate to meet all operating requirements and make distributions to its preferred stockholders in accordance with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to REITs. Funds required to make distributions to our preferred shareholders that are not provided by operating activities will be supplemented by property debt financing and refinancing activities and advances on the revolving credit facility. Funds required to make distributions to common shareholders and Operating Partnership unitholders are funded by operating and refinancing proceeds.

21

The Company intends to meet its long-term liquidity requirements through property sales, property debt financing and refinancing, noting that possible interest rate increases resulting from current economic conditions could negatively impact the Company's ability to refinance existing debt at acceptable rates. As of June 30, 2013, approximately $156,173,000 of principal, or 33.7% of the Company’s outstanding mortgage debt, is due to be repaid within the next three years.  During that three-year period, principal of $40,479,000, $46,287,000 and $60,137,000 relates to loans that are due to mature and be repaid in full in 2013, 2014 and 2015, respectively.  All other payments of principal during the three-year period are normal recurring monthly payments in accordance with the loan amortization schedules.  The Company expects to fund any maturing mortgages through refinancing of such mortgages or through the sale of the related properties. Additionally, the Company may seek to expand its purchasing power through the use of joint venture relationships with other companies with liquidity.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company has fixed interest rate mortgage financing on all properties in the portfolio with the exception of Walnut Creek which has no mortgage.

On June 12, 2012, Zocalo Community Development, Inc. ("Zocalo"), the managing member of the joint venture ("JV 2020 Lawrence") of the Operating Partnership's subsidiary, BIR 2020 Lawrence, L.L.C. ("BIR 2020") with Zocalo and JB 2020, LLC, entered into a financing agreement with the State of Colorado, through the Colorado Energy Office, for $1,250,000 (the "Colorado Energy Loan") to be used for inclusion of energy efficient components in the construction of JV 2020 Lawrence's multifamily apartment building (the "2020 Lawrence Project"). Zocalo has pledged all of its membership interests, both currently owned and subsequently acquired, in JV 2020 Lawrence as collateral for the Colorado Energy Loan. Pursuant to an authorizing resolution adopted by the members of JV 2020 Lawrence, Zocalo will advance the proceeds of the Colorado Energy Loan, as received from time to time, to JV 2020 Lawrence for application to the 2020 Lawrence Project. Such advances to JV 2020 Lawrence will not be considered contributions of capital to JV 2020 Lawrence. Also, Zocalo is authorized and directed to cause JV 2020 Lawrence to repay such advances, including principal and interest, made by Zocalo at such times as required by the Colorado Energy Loan. Any payments pursuant to the authorizing resolution shall be payable only from surplus cash of the 2020 Lawrence Project as defined by U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") in the governing regulatory agreement of the primary financing on the project as describe above. If surplus cash is not available to satisfy Zocalo's payment obligations under the Colorado Energy Loan, then either Zocalo or BIR 2020, may issue a funding notice, pursuant to the JV 2020 Lawrence limited liability company agreement, for payment obligation amounts due and payable.

The Company has a $20,000,000 revolving credit facility in place with an affiliate of the Company.  The credit facility does not have a stated maturity date but is subject to a 60-day notice of termination provision by which the lender can affect a termination of the commitment. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there was no outstanding balance on the credit facility. An amendment to the original agreement provided for an “Amendment Period” during which the available credit was increased to $40,000,000 from $20,000,000 as well as changes to other provisions. The Amendment Period expired on July 31, 2012 and reverted back to the original credit amount of $20,000,000.

Capital Expenditures

Payments for capital expenditures totaled $9,405,207 and $23,001,173 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company paid $2,001,545 and $3,290,432 for recurring capital expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Recurring capital expenditures typically include items such as appliances, carpeting, flooring, HVAC equipment, kitchen and bath cabinets, site improvements and various exterior building improvements.

The Company paid $7,403,662 and $19,710,741 for renovation and development related capital expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Renovation related capital expenditures generally include capital expenditures of a significant non-recurring nature, including construction management fees payable to an affiliate of the Company, where the Company expects to see a financial return on the expenditure or where the Company believes the expenditure preserves the status of a property within its submarket. Costs directly associated with the development of properties are capitalized. Additionally, the Company capitalizes interest, real estate taxes, insurance and project management/development fees. Management uses judgment to determine when a development project commences and capitalization begins and when a development project is substantially complete and capitalization ceases. Generally, most capitalization begins during the pre-construction period, defined as activities that are necessary to start the development of the property. A development is generally considered substantially complete after major construction has ended and the property is available for occupancy. For properties that are built in phases, capitalization generally ceases on each phase when it is considered substantially complete and ready for use. Costs will continue to be capitalized only on those phases under development.

On February 10, 2011, the Operating Partnership, through BIR 2020, entered into an agreement to acquire a 91.08% ownership interest in the 2020 Lawrence Project to develop a 231-unit multifamily mid-rise community in Denver, Colorado. As of June 30, 2013, the project development costs incurred were approximately $52,423,000, of the total budgeted costs of approximately

22

$55,500,000, of which $45,463,100 was funded by HUD-insured financing. The Company's total capital commitment to the joint venture is $8,000,000. The Company had invested 100% of its total committed capital amount of $8,000,000 as of June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2013, the development was completed within budget. The Company consolidates its investment in the 2020 Lawrence Project.

On March 2, 2011, the Operating Partnership, through its investment in NoMa JV, acquired a 30% joint venture partnership interest to develop a 603-unit multifamily apartment community in Washington, D.C. (the "NoMa Project"). As of June 30, 2013, the project development costs incurred were approximately $130,671,000, of the total budgeted costs of approximately $143,400,000. The Company had invested 100% of its total committed capital amount of $14,520,000 in NoMa JV as of June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2013, the NoMa Project was completed within budget. The Company accounts for its investment in NoMa JV as an equity method investment.

On December 12, 2011, the Company executed a limited liability company agreement with an unrelated entity related to the development of a 154-unit multifamily apartment building in Walnut Creek, California (the "Walnut Creek Project"), which is currently in the entitlement phase. Once fully committed, the Company's ownership percentage will be 98%. As of June 30, 2013, the project development costs incurred were approximately $2,358,000, of the total budgeted costs of approximately $48,000,000. Total capital committed to the project is $16,872,863. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has made capital contributions of $1,043,172, or 6.2% of its current total commitment. The Walnut Creek Project was delayed due to environmental and regulatory requirements, among other things. The Company is currently reviewing a revised development budget, which reflects revisions in construction costs and operating assumptions. The construction is projected to start in the fourth quarter of 2013. The Company consolidates its investment in the Walnut Creek Project.

The Company is required to provide the lender with documentation evidencing the completion of the repairs, which in some cases, are subject to inspection by the lender.

The Company’s capital budgets for 2013 anticipate spending approximately $7,551,000 for ongoing capital needs.  As of June 30, 2013, the Company has not committed to any new significant rehabilitation projects.

Results of Operations and Financial Condition

The Company's portfolio (the "Total Property Portfolio") consists of all properties acquired or placed in service and owned at any time during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. As a result of changes in the Total Portfolio over time, including the change in the portfolio holdings during six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, the financial statements show considerable changes in revenue and expenses from period to period. The Company does not believe that its period-to-period financial data are comparable. Therefore, the Company also presents the comparison of operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 reflect changes attributable to the properties that were owned by the Company throughout each period presented (the "Same Property Portfolio").


24

“Net Operating Income” (“NOI”) falls within the definition of a “non-GAAP financial measure” as stated in Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure of our performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.  The Company believes NOI is a measure of operating results that is useful to investors to analyze the performance of a real estate company because it provides a direct measure of the operating results of the Company’s multifamily apartment communities. The Company also believes it is a useful measure to facilitate the comparison of operating performance among competitors.  The calculation of NOI requires classification of income statement items between operating and non-operating expenses, where operating items include only those items of revenue and expense which are directly related to the income producing activities of the properties.  We believe that to achieve a more complete understanding of the Company’s performance, NOI should be compared with our reported net income (loss).  Management uses NOI to evaluate the operating results of properties without reflecting the effect of capital decisions such as the issuance of mortgage debt and investments in capital items; in turn, these capital decisions have an impact on interest expense and depreciation and amortization.

The most directly comparable financial measure of the Company’s NOI, calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, is net income (loss), shown on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.  For the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, net income (loss) was $14,531,303 and $(3,282,604). For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, net income (loss) was $10,534,627 and $(1,270,648), respectively. A reconciliation of the Company’s NOI to net income (loss) for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 is presented as part of the following tables.

Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2013 to the three months ended June 30, 2012

Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2013 to the three months ended June 30, 2012
(Same Property Portfolio)

Revenue

Rental Revenue

Rental revenue of the Same Property Portfolio increased for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 in comparison to the same period of 2012.  The increase in rental revenue is mainly attributable to increase in rental rates. Average monthly rental rates for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 of $1,197 per apartment unit increased by 3.46% over the 2012 rental rates of $1,157 for the same period, contributing to an increase of approximately $624,000 in rental revenue. Average physical occupancy for the 2013 Same Property Portfolio was 96.30%, which increased from the 95.48% average in 2012, resulted in an overall increase in revenue of approximately $102,000. Market conditions remain stable in the majority of the submarkets in which the Company owns and operates apartments. Improving economic conditions and the continued strength in the apartment markets has allowed the Company to implement rent increases at properties in strong markets while retaining high levels of quality tenants throughout the portfolio.

Operating Expenses

Operating

Maintenance

Maintenance expenses increased in the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same period of 2012, mainly due to increases in repairs. Management continues to employ a proactive maintenance rehabilitation strategy at its apartment communities and considers the strategy an effective program that preserves, and in some cases, increases its occupancy levels through improved consumer appeal of the apartment communities, from both an interior and exterior perspective.

Real Estate Taxes

Real estate taxes increased for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from the comparable period of 2012. The Company continually scrutinizes the assessed values of its properties and participates in arbitration hearings or similar forums with the taxing authorities to appeal increases in assessed values that it considers to be unreasonable. The Company has been successful in achieving tax abatements for certain of its properties based on challenges made to the assessed values. Going forward, the Company anticipates a general upward trend in real estate tax expense as local and state taxing agencies continue to place significant reliance on property tax revenue.

Management Fees

Management fees of the Same Property Portfolio increased for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012 as a result of an increase in total revenue of the operating properties.

Non-Operating Expenses

Depreciation

Depreciation expense of the Same Property Portfolio decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same period of the prior year.  The decrease is a result of assets that have been fully depreciated, partially offset by the additions to the basis of fixed assets in the portfolio driven by normal recurring capital spending activities over the remaining properties in the Same Property Portfolio.

Interest, inclusive of amortization of deferred financing fees
 
Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2013 decreased over the comparable period of 2012 primarily due to reduced principal balances at most properties as a result of mortgage principal amortization.

Amortization of acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships
 
Amortization of acquired in-place-leases and tenant relationships decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same period in 2012.  The decrease is related to the completion of amortization of the acquired-in-place lease and tenant relationships intangible assets booked at acquisition and amortized over a 24-month period which did not extend into the three-month period ended June 30, 2013.

Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2013 to the three months ended June 30, 2012
(Total Property Portfolio)
 
In addition to the reasons discussed with respect to the Same Property Portfolio, changes in revenue, total operating expenses and non-operating expenses of the Total Property Portfolio for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012 are due mainly to the fluctuations in the actual properties owned during the comparative periods.  The increase in total operating and non-operating expenses was also attributable to increased expenses for the 2020 Lawrence Project which was completed during the first quarter of 2013, as expenses for the project were capitalized during the same period in 2012, in addition to increased incentive advisory fees. (Refer to Related Party Transactions on page 18 for further discussion.)

Operating expenses increased in the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same period of 2012. Higher utilities and health insurance expenses and lower gain on fixed assets replacement were partially offset by savings in state income taxes at Executive House in addition to savings in payroll and leasing expenses.

Maintenance

Maintenance expenses decreased in the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same period of 2012, mainly due to savings in repairs, landscaping and painting. Management continues to employ a proactive maintenance rehabilitation strategy at its apartment communities and considers the strategy an effective program that preserves, and in some cases, increases its occupancy levels through improved consumer appeal of the apartment communities, from both an interior and exterior perspective.

The table below breaks out the major components of maintenance expense:

Real Estate Taxes

Real estate taxes increased for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from the comparable period of 2012.  The Company continually scrutinizes the assessed values of its properties and participates in arbitration hearings or similar forums with the taxing authorities to appeal increases in assessed values that it considers to be unreasonable. The Company has been successful in achieving tax abatements for certain of its properties based on challenges made to the assessed values. Going forward, the Company anticipates a general upward trend in real estate tax expense as local and state taxing agencies continue to place significant reliance on property tax revenue.

Management Fees

Management fees of the Same Property Portfolio increased for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012 as a result of an increase in total revenue of the operating properties.

Non-Operating Expenses

Depreciation

Depreciation expense of the Same Property Portfolio decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same period of the prior year.  The decrease is a result of assets that have been fully depreciated, partially offset by the additions to the basis of fixed assets in the portfolio driven by normal recurring capital spending activities over the remaining properties in the Same Property Portfolio.

Interest, inclusive of amortization of deferred financing fees
 
Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2013 decreased over the comparable period of 2012 primarily due to reduced principal balances at most properties as a result of mortgage principal amortization.

Amortization of acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships
 
Amortization of acquired in-place-leases and tenant relationships decreased in the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same period in 2012.  The decrease is related to the completion of amortization of the acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships intangible assets booked at acquisition and amortized over a 24-month period which did not extend into the six-month period ended June 30, 2013.

Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2013 to the six months ended June 30, 2012
(Total Property Portfolio)
 
In addition to the reasons discussed with respect to the Same Property Portfolio, changes in revenue, total operating expenses and non-operating expenses of the Total Property Portfolio for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012 are due mainly to the fluctuations in the actual properties owned during the comparative periods.  The increase in total operating and non-operating expenses was also attributable to increased expenses for the 2020 Lawrence Project which was completed during the first quarter of 2013, as expenses for the project were capitalized during the same period in 2012. The increase in total operating expenses was partially offset by decreased incentive advisory fees. (Refer to Related Party Transactions on page 18 for further discussion.)

Funds From Operations

The Company follows the revised definition of Funds from Operations (“FFO”) adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”).  Management considers FFO to be an appropriate measure of performance of an equity REIT.  We calculate FFO by adjusting net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP, including non-recurring items), for gains (or losses) from sales of properties, impairments, real estate related depreciation and amortization, and adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.  Management believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the historical operating results of the Company, FFO should be considered in conjunction with net income as presented in the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein. Management considers FFO to be a useful measure for reviewing the comparative operating and financial performance of the Company because, by excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help one compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to different companies.

34

The Company’s calculation of FFO may not be directly comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or similar real estate companies that have not adopted the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently.  FFO is not a GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure of our performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, as an indication of our performance.  FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and is not a measure of liquidity or an indicator of our ability to make cash distributions.  We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be compared with our reported net income (loss) and considered in addition to cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss) to FFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

FFO for the three months ended June 30, 2013 decreased as compared to the same period ended June 30, 2012 and increased for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2012.  The decrease in FFO for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012 is mainly attributable to increased expenses, specifically incentive advisory fees, real estate taxes and interest expenses, which exceeded the increase in revenue for the comparable periods. The increase in FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same period ended June 30, 2012 is due primarily to increased revenue and lower incentive advisory fees, which were partially offset by higher real estate taxes and interest expense as the 2020 Lawrence Project was completed in the first quarter of 2013.

Environmental Issues

There are no recorded amounts resulting from environmental liabilities because there are no known contingencies with respect to environmental liabilities. The Company obtains environmental audits, through various sources including lender evaluations and acquisition due diligence, for each of its properties at various intervals throughout a property's life. The Company has not been advised by any third party as to the existence of, nor has it identified on its own, any material liability for site restoration or other costs that may be incurred with respect to any of its properties. The Company re-evaluates potential environmental liabilities on an annual basis by reviewing the properties in the portfolio at year end as the portfolio continues to change with the sale and acquisition of properties.

Inflation and Economic Conditions

Substantially all of the leases at our properties are for a term of one year or less, which enables the Company to seek increased rents for new leases or upon renewal of existing leases. These short-term leases minimize the potential adverse effect of inflation on rental income, although residents may leave without penalty at the end of their lease terms and may do so if rents are increased significantly.

35


Though the United States economy continues to be challenged by the high unemployment rate, slow but reasonably steady growth is still seen in many parts of the economy. The multifamily sector continues to exhibit strong fundamentals and improved performance on a national basis, evidenced by improved occupancy levels and increases in effective rents. These improvements are due, in large part, to favorable supply and demand dynamics, as construction of new apartment units and single family homes has decreased significantly, home ownership has declined, and the home buying market has weakened due to stricter mortgage qualification standards and declining home values.

Credit worthy borrowers in the multifamily sector continue to be able to access capital through Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and other sources, at historically low interest rates. Though there is no assurance that under existing or future regulatory restrictions this source of capital, unique to multifamily borrowers, will continue to be available.

The Company continues to believe that projected demographic trends will favor the multifamily sector, driven primarily by the continued flow of echo boomers (children of baby boomers, age 20 to 29), the fastest growing segment of the population, and an increasing number of immigrants who are often renters by necessity. In many cases, the current economic climate has delayed many potential residents from entering the rental market as many have chosen to remain at home or to share rental units instead of renting their own space. This trend may be creating a backlog of potential residents who will enter the market as the economy rebounds and unemployment rates continue to trend back to historical norms. The Company's properties are principally located in markets where zoning restrictions, scarcity of land and high construction costs create significant barriers to new development. The Company believes it is well positioned to manage its portfolio through the remainder of this economic recovery and is prepared to take advantage of opportunities that present themselves during such times.

Item 3.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company’s mortgage notes are fixed rate instruments; therefore, the Company’s outstanding mortgage debt is not sensitive to changes in the capital market except upon maturity.  The Company’s revolving credit facility is a variable rate arrangement tied to LIBOR and is therefore sensitive to changes in the capital market.  The tables below provide information about the Company’s financial instruments, specifically debt obligations.

The following table presents scheduled principal and interest payments and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates for mortgage notes payable as of June 30, 2013.
