NNN APARTMENT REIT ACQUIRES
RESIDENCES AT BRAEMAR IN CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA

[photo omitted] Santa Ana, California, July 6, 2007 – NNN Apartment REIT, Inc. has acquired Residences at Braemar in Charlotte, North Carolina. The acquisition closed on June 29, 2007.

Residences at Braemar is a 160-unit multifamily community consisting of one two-story and seven three-story apartment buildings plus a community clubhouse on a 12 acre site. Completed in 2005, the property features a business center, 24-hour fitness center, swimming pool with spa, picnic and grilling areas, patios/balconies, and private wooded views. The property offers two bedroom/two bathroom and three bedroom/two bathroom units that range in size from 991 to 1,113 square feet. Residences at Braemar lies just two miles from the 1.2 million square foot Northlake Mall and within minutes of Interstate 77. The property is currently 99 percent leased.

“Charlotte is a high-growth, high-income market, and Residences at Braemar is a top-level multifamily asset,” explained Stanley J. Olander Jr., president and chief executive officer of NNN Apartment REIT. “The property is in the northern part of Charlotte, which is quickly developing, and will continue to experience tremendous growth with the completion of Interstate 485 later this year and the opening of a commuter rail line serving Charlotte’s northern corridor expected to be finished in 2012.”

According to information compiled by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Charlotte is both the largest and fastest growing city in North Carolina by population, and has historically exhibited job and population growth at double the national average. Economy.com forecasts employment growth at approximately two percent per year and population growth at 40,000 per year through 2011. Additionally, the Palos Verdes, California-based Center for Real Estate Studies named Charlotte the top market for apartment investors in 2006.

NNN Apartment REIT offers a monthly distribution of 7.0 percent per annum, and is seeking to acquire properties in geographically-diverse markets throughout the United States that are poised for strong population and economic growth. As of June 29, 2007, NNN Apartment REIT has sold approximately 5.3 million shares of its common stock for approximately $52.5 million through its initial public offering, which began in the third quarter of 2006.
