NNN APARTMENT REIT ACQUIRES
PARK AT NORTHGATE IN SPRING, TEXAS

[photo omitted] Santa Ana, California, June 18, 2007 – NNN Apartment REIT, Inc. has acquired Park at Northgate apartments in the Houston suburb of Spring, Texas. The acquisition closed on June 12, 2007.

Park at Northgate is a 248-unit multifamily community consisting of 19 two-story apartment buildings on a nearly 16 acre site. Completed in 2003, the property features a clubhouse, controlled access entry gates, 24-hour fitness center and an attractively landscaped courtyard. The apartment units range in size from 707 to 1383 square feet, and include nine-foot ceilings, oversized patios or balconies, and walk-in closets. The community offers tenants several recreational amenities, among these are a putting green, volleyball court, playground, and a swimming pool area equipped with a spa, outdoor cooking facilities and a beach entrance. The property is currently 98 percent leased.

“The Greater Houston market is an attractive location for an investment by NNN Apartment REIT,” said Stanley J. Olander Jr., president and chief executive officer of NNN Apartment REIT. “The economy of Houston is booming due to the strength of the energy sector, but has also become more stable as a result of economic diversification over the past several years. It continues to exceed national averages in terms of population and job growth – factors that lead to a healthy future for apartment communities in the market.”

According to the fourth quarter 2006 Reis Observer for the Houston apartment market, the city’s economy is more diverse than ever before, thanks largely to the impressive development in the health, biomedical, trade and logistics industries. Reis, Inc. predicts that Houston’s job and population growth will be nearly double the national average in 2007, as it was in 2006. Effective rents are expected to increase by 3.3% in 2007. REIS, Inc. is a leading provider of impartial commercial real estate performance information and analysis.
