Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the statement of revenues and certain expenses based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement of revenues and certain expenses is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the statement of revenues and certain expenses, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the statement of revenues and certain expenses. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
The accompanying statement of revenues and certain expenses was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, as described in Note 1 to the statement of revenues and certain expenses and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the Property’s revenues and expenses.
 
In our opinion, the statement of revenues and certain expenses presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and certain expenses as described in Note 1 to the statement of revenues and certain expenses of The Myrtles at Olde Towne for the year ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Myrtles at Olde Towne

Notes to the Statements of Revenues and Certain Expenses
for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2007 (Unaudited)
and for the Year Ended December 31, 2006
 
Note 1.  Organization and Basis of Presentation
 
Organization — The accompanying statements of revenues and certain expenses include the operations of The Myrtles at Olde Towne, or the Property, located in Portsmouth, VA. The Property is a 246 unit residential apartment complex and was 94% leased as of December 31, 2006.
 
Basis of Presentation — The accompanying statements of revenues and certain expenses have been prepared for the purpose of complying with the provisions of Article 3-14 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, which requires certain information with respect to real estate operations to be included with certain filings with the SEC. The statements of revenues and certain expenses include the historical revenues and certain operating expenses of the Property, exclusive of items which may not be comparable to the proposed future operations of the Property. Material amounts that would not be directly attributable to future operating results of the Property are excluded, and therefore, the statements of revenues and certain expenses are not intended to be a complete presentation of the Property’s revenues and expenses. Items excluded consist of interest expense, depreciation and amortization and federal and state income taxes.
 
The accompanying statements of revenues and certain expenses are not representative of the actual operations for the periods presented, as certain expenses that may not be comparable to the expenses expected to be incurred by Grubb & Ellis Apartment REIT, Inc. in the future operations of the Property have been excluded.
 
Note 2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Revenue Recognition — The Property leases multi-family residential apartments under operating leases generally with terms of one year or less. Rent and other property revenue is recorded when due from residents and is recognized monthly as it is earned. Other property revenue consists primarily of utility rebillings, other expense reimbursements, and administrative, application and other fees charged to residents.
 
Repairs and Maintenance — Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred, while significant improvements, renovations and replacements are capitalized.
 
Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and certain expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
 
Unaudited Interim Information — The statement of revenues and certain expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 is unaudited. In the opinion of management, such financial statement reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim period. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
 
Note 3.  Related Party Transactions
 
The owners of the Property have contracted with a related party to manage the Property. Monthly fees for property management services are the greater of 3.0% of gross revenues, or $2,500. For the year ended December 31, 2006 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 (unaudited), the Property incurred expenses of $105,000 and $80,000, respectively, related to property management fees.
 
The owners of the Property have contracted with a related party to provide property and liability insurance. For the year ended December 31, 2006 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2007

NOTE 4.  Commitments and Contingencies
 
Litigation — The Property may be subject to legal claims in the ordinary course of business as a property owner. Management believes that the ultimate settlement of any potential claims will not have a material impact on the Property’s results of operations.
 
Environmental Matters — In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate, the Property may be potentially liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters. The Property has not been notified by any governmental authority of any non-compliance, liability or other claim, and management is not aware of any other environmental condition that it believes will have a material adverse effect on the Property’s results of operations.
 
Other Matters — Other commitments and contingencies include the usual obligations of a real estate property in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, these matters are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Property’s financial position and/or results of operations.

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
as of September 30, 2007 and for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2007
and for the Period from January 10, 2006 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2006
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements (including notes thereto) are qualified in their entirety by reference to and should be read in conjunction with the historical September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. In management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the transactions have been made.
 
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2007 is presented as if we acquired the Villas of El Dorado Apartments, or the El Dorado property, and entered into a loan agreement with Wachovia Bank, National Association, or Wachovia, for an aggregate principal amount of up to $10,000,000 maximum, or the Wachovia Loan, or collectively the Q4 2007 Previously Reported Transactions, and acquired The Myrtles at Olde Towne, or the Myrtles property, and The Heights at Olde Towne, or the Heights property, on September 30, 2007. Collectively, these properties were acquired using debt financing and proceeds, net of offering costs, received from our initial public offering through the acquisition date at $10.00 per share. However, the pro forma adjustments assume that the debt proceeds and offering proceeds were raised as of September 30, 2007.
 
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and for the period from January 10, 2006 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2006 are presented as if we acquired Walker Ranch Apartment Homes, or the Walker Ranch property, Hidden Lake Apartment Homes, or the Hidden Lake property, Park at Northgate Apartments, or the Northgate property, Residences at Braemar, or the Braemar property, Baypoint Resort, or the Baypoint property, and Towne Crossing Apartments, or the Towne Crossing property, the El Dorado property, the Myrtles property and the Heights property, or collectively the Properties, and obtained our line of credit and the Wachovia Loan on January 10, 2006 (Date of Inception). The Properties were acquired using a combination of debt financing and proceeds, net of offering costs, received from our initial public offering through the acquisition date at $10.00 per share. In some cases, we secured debt financing on a property subsequent to acquisition. However, the pro forma adjustments assume that the debt proceeds and offering proceeds were raised as of January 10, 2006 (Date of Inception).
 
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and are subject to a number of estimates, assumptions, and other uncertainties, and do not purport to be indicative of the actual results of operations or financial position that would have occurred had the acquisitions reflected therein in fact occurred on the dates specified, nor do such financial statements purport to be indicative of the results of operations or financial position that may be achieved in the future. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements include pro forma allocations of the purchase price of the Properties based upon preliminary estimates of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisitions and are subject to change.

(A) As reported in our balance sheet as of September 30, 2007 included in this prospectus.
 
(B) Represents the purchase price of the assets acquired and liabilities incurred or assumed by us in connection with the acquisition of the El Dorado property and the Wachovia Loan, as previously reported. The purchase price allocations are preliminary and are subject to change.
 
(C) Represents the purchase price of the assets acquired and liabilities incurred or assumed by us in connection with the acquisition of the Myrtles property. We have assumed the purchase price of $36,000,000, plus closing costs and acquisition fees, was financed through a 10-year, fixed rate, 5.79% per annum secured loan of $20,100,000, $6,788,000 in borrowings under the Wachovia Loan, a one-year, variable rate, term loan, $6,792,000 in borrowings under a fixed rate, 7.46% per annum unsecured loan from NNN Realty Advisors, Inc. and the net proceeds from the issuance of approximately 451,097 shares of common stock from our initial public offering. An acquisition fee of $1,080,000, or 3.0% of the purchase price, was paid to our advisor and its affiliate. We allocated the purchase price, plus closing costs, to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows: $4,765,000 to land, $31,013,000 to building and improvements, $1,239,000 to furniture, fixtures and equipment, $266,000 to in place leases, and $93,000 to tenant relationships.

(E) The Myrtles property and the Heights property were acquired using proceeds, net of offering costs, received from our initial public offering through the acquisition date at $10.00 per share. The pro forma adjustments assume these proceeds were raised as of September 30, 2007.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
 
(K) Pursuant to our advisory agreement, an affiliate of our advisor is entitled to receive, for its services in managing our properties, a monthly management fee of up to 4.0% of the gross cash receipts of the property. As a result, the amount reflects property management fees reflective of our current advisory agreement. Also, adjustments were made for an incremental property tax expense assuming the acquisition prices and historical property tax rate.
 
(L) Pursuant to our advisory agreement, an affiliate of our advisor is entitled to receive a monthly asset management fee calculated at one-twelfth of 1.0% of average invested assets, calculated as of the close of business on the last day of each month, subject to our stockholders receiving annualized distributions in an amount equal to at least 5.0% per annum on average invested capital. The asset management fee is calculated monthly not to exceed one-twelfth of 1.0% of the average invested assets as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter. At the time of the acquisition of the Myrtles property and the Heights property, the stockholders had received annualized distributions greater than 5.0% per annum. As such, an asset management fee was incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
 
(M) Depreciation expense on the portion of the purchase price allocated to building is recognized using the straight-line method and a 40 year life. Depreciation expense on the portion of the purchase price allocated to land improvements is recognized using the straight-line method over the average remaining useful life of approximately 7 years for both the Myrtles property and the Heights property. Depreciation expense on the portion of the purchase price allocated to furniture, fixtures and equipment is recognized using the straight-line method and an estimated average useful life of approximately 12 years and 6 years for the Myrtles property and the Heights property, respectively. Amortization expense for in place leases are recognized using the straight-line method over the average remaining lease term of 7 months and 6 months for the Myrtles property and the Heights property, respectively. Amortization expense on intangible tenant relationships is recognized using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 7 months and 6 months for the Myrtles property and the Heights property, respectively. The purchase price allocations, and therefore depreciation and amortization expense, are preliminary and are subject to change.
 
(N) We assumed the Myrtles property and the Heights property were financed using various debt instruments and offering proceeds as noted above in notes (C) and (D). As such, this amount represents interest expense, and the amortization of the corresponding loan fees, on such debt instruments. The Wachovia Loan is a variable rate loan. If interest rates increase by 0.125%, interest expense would increase by $9,000.
 
(O) Represents the weighted-average number of shares of common stock from our initial public offering required to generate sufficient offering proceeds to fund the transactions. The calculation assumes the transactions occurred on January 10, 2006 (Date of Inception).
 
3. Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the Period from January 10, 2006 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2006.
 
(P) As reported in our statement of operations for the period from January 10, 2006 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2006 included in this prospectus.
 
(Q) Amounts represent the estimated operations, including pro forma adjustments, based on historical operations from January 10, 2006 (Date of Inception) through the transaction date of the acquisition of the Walker Ranch property and the Hidden Lake property and fees in connection with the line of credit, (transactions occurring during the three months ended December 31, 2006) as if these transactions had occurred as of January 10, 2006 (Date of Inception).
 
(R) Amounts represent the estimated operations, including pro forma adjustments, based on historical operations from January 10, 2006 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2006 of the Northgate property, the Braemar property, the Baypoint property and the Towne Crossing property (properties acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2007) as if these assets had been acquired as of January 10, 2006 (Date of Inception).

(X) Depreciation expense on the portion of the purchase price allocated to building is recognized using the straight-line method and a 40 year life. Depreciation expense on the portion of the purchase price allocated to land improvements is recognized using the straight-line method over the average remaining useful life of approximately 7 years for both the Myrtles property and the Heights property.

As such, this amount represents interest expense, and the amortization of the corresponding loan fees, on such debt instruments. The Wachovia Loan is a variable rate loan. If interest rates increase by 0.125%, interest expense would increase by $12,000.
 
(Z) Represents the weighted-average number of shares of common stock from our initial public offering required to generate sufficient offering proceeds to fund the transactions. The calculation assumes the transactions occurred on January 10, 2006 (Date of Inception).
