KTR No. 11-1-00330
Dear Mr. Johnson:
KTR Real Estate Advisors LLC (“KTR”) has completed an appraisal of the above referenced property as requested in our November 18, 2011 engagement letter, and communicated the results in the attached self-contained report. The purpose of this assignment is to estimate the Market Value of the Leased Fee Interest in the subject property as of December 1, 2011. The property was inspected by a staff member of KTR on March 9, 2011, when the property was last appraised by KTR. The report has been prepared for NPI Equity Investments, Inc. for client’s use in asset valuation and financial reporting purposes.
Situated as noted above, the subject property consists of a 64.057 acre site improved with a 722-unit, garden-style apartment complex. The subject was developed in 1969 and contains 660,220 square feet of rentable area. The property is operating at stabilized occupancy and is in good physical condition. The subject property is more fully described, legally and physically, within the attached report.
Based on the analysis contained in the attached report, the Market Value of the Leased Fee Interest in the subject property, as of December 1, 2011 is:
SIXTY SIX MILLION FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
($66,400,000)
EXTRAORDINARY ASSUMPTION

The values derived herein are based on the extraordinary assumption that the physical condition of the subject property has not materially changed since the date of our last inspection. Should this assumption be incorrect, the values reported herein may be materially impacted.
The attached report, in its entirety, including all assumptions and limiting conditions, which is an integral part of, and inseparable from, this transmittal letter, contains the data, information, analyses and calculations upon which the value conclusion indicated herein are based. The report was prepared in compliance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) as set forth by the Appraisal Foundation and in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics and Standards of Professional Practice of the Appraisal Institute.

BASIC ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITING CONDITIONS
This appraisal report is subject to the following assumptions and limiting conditions:
1.   No responsibility is assumed for the legal description or for matters including legal or title considerations. Title to the property is assumed to be good and marketable unless otherwise stated.
2.   The property is appraised free and clear of any or all liens or encumbrances unless otherwise stated.
3.   Responsible ownership and competent property management are assumed.
4.   The information furnished by others is believed to be reliable. However, no warranty is given for its accuracy.
5.   All engineering is assumed to be correct. The plot plans and illustrative material in this report are included only to assist the reader in visualizing the property.
6.   It is assumed that there are no hidden or unapparent conditions of the property, subsoil, or structures that render it more or less valuable. No responsibility is assumed for such conditions or for arranging for engineering studies that may be required to discover them.
7.   It is assumed that there is full compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local environmental regulations and laws unless noncompliance is stated, defined, and considered in the appraisal report.
8.   It is assumed that all applicable zoning and use regulations and restrictions have been complied with, unless nonconformity has been stated, defined, and considered in the appraisal report.
9.   It is assumed that all required licenses, certificates of occupancy, consents, or other legislative or administrative authority from any local, state, or national government or private entity or organization have been or can be obtained or renewed for any use on which the value estimate contained in this report is based.
10.   It is assumed that the utilization of the land and improvements is within the boundaries or property lines of the property described and that there is no encroachment or trespass unless noted in the report.
 
11.   The distribution, if any, of the total valuation in this report between land and improvements applies only under the stated program of utilization. The separate allocations for land and buildings must not be used in conjunction with any other appraisal and are invalid if so used.
 
12.   Unless otherwise stated, possession of this report, or a copy thereof, does not carry with it the right of publication.
 
13.   The appraiser, by reason of this appraisal, is not required to give further consultation, testimony, or be in attendance in court with reference to the property in question unless arrangements have been previously made.
 
14.   Unless otherwise stated, neither all nor any part of the contents of this report (especially any conclusions as to value, the identity of the appraiser, or the firm with which the appraiser is connected) shall be disseminated to the public through advertising, public relations, news, sales, or other media without prior written consent and approval of the appraisers.

15.   Unless otherwise stated in this report, the existence of hazardous substances, including without limitation asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls, petroleum leakage, or agricultural chemicals, which may or may not be present on the property, or other environmental conditions, were not called to the attention of nor did the appraiser become aware of such during the appraiser’s inspection. The appraiser has no knowledge of the existence of such materials on or in the property unless otherwise stated. The appraiser, however, is not qualified to test such substances or conditions. If the presence of such substances, such as asbestos, urea formaldehyde foam insulation, or other hazardous substances or environmental conditions, may affect the value of the property, the value is predicated on the assumption that there is no such condition on or in the property or in such proximity thereto that it would cause a loss in value. No responsibility is assumed for any such conditions, or for any expertise or engineering knowledge required to discover them. The client is urged to retain an expert in this field, if desired.
 
16.   The Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) became effective January 26, 1992. The appraiser has not made a specific compliance survey and analysis of this property to determine whether or not it is in conformity with the various detailed requirements of the ADA. It is possible that a compliance survey of the property, together with a detailed analysis of the requirements of the ADA, could reveal that the property is not in compliance with one or more of the requirements of the Act. If so, this fact could have a negative effect upon the value of the property. Since the appraiser has no direct evidence relating to this issue, he did not consider possible non-compliance with the requirements of the ADA in estimating the value of the property.
 
17.   Former personal property items such as kitchen and bathroom appliances are now either permanently affixed to the real estate or are implicitly part of the real estate in that tenants expect the use of such items in exchange for rent and never gain any of the rights of ownership. Furthermore, the intention of the owners is not to remove the articles which are required under the implied or express Warranty of Habitability. The accounting for the short-lived nature of such items is reflected in reserves for replacement expense category.
EXTRAORDINARY ASSUMPTION
KTR previously inspected the subject property on March 9, 2011. The scope of work of this appraisal did not include a physical inspection of the subject property. The values derived herein are based on the extraordinary assumption that the physical condition of the subject property has not materially changed since the date of our last inspection. Should this assumption be incorrect, the values reported herein may be materially impacted.

    PREMISES OF THE APPRAISAL
 
       
Identification   The subject property consists of the land and improvements at 9071 Mill Creek Road within Levittown, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. The Bucks County Assessor identifies the property as Tax Parcel 13-040-005. The property consists of a 64.057-acre site improved with a 722-unit garden apartment complex known as Village of Pennbrook Apartments.
 
       
       
Sales History of the
Subject Property
  According to public records, the current owner of the subject property is National Prop Invest 4, who has owned the property since December 1981. We are not aware of any transfers of ownership within the three-year period prior to the effective date of value. It is our understanding that the subject property is not being listed for sale and we are not aware of any contracts of sale pending as of the date this report was prepared.
 
       
       
Purpose and Scope
of the Appraisal
  The purpose of the appraisal is to estimate the market value of the subject property as of the date of value. It is the intent of the appraisers that the analysis, opinions and conclusions of this report be considered an unbiased, objective investigation performed by a disinterested third party with complete objectivity as to the outcome of the analysis.
 
       
    According to the Appraisal Institute’s Code of Professional Ethics and Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice, the scope of the appraisal is cited as “the extent of the process of collecting, confirming, and reporting data” included in an appraisal report.

2.
  Reviewed demographic and other socioeconomic trends pertaining to
 
      the city and region.
 
  3.   Examined regional apartment market conditions, with special emphasis on
 
      the subject property’s apartment submarket.
 
  4.   Investigated lease and sale transactions involving comparable
 
      properties in the influencing market.
 
  5.   Reviewed the existing rent roll and discussed the leasing status with
 
      the building manager and leasing agent. In addition, we have reviewed
 
      the subject property’s recent operating history and those of competing
 
      properties.
 
  6.   Utilized appropriate appraisal methodology to derive estimates of value.
 
  7.   Reconciled the estimates of value into a single value conclusion.

Definition of Market Value   The definition of Market Value used in this appraisal report is taken from the Appraisal Institute’s The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, Fifth Edition, Chicago, Illinois, Appraisal Institute, 2010, which states:
 
       
    “The most probable price that a property should bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sales, the buyer and seller each acting prudently and knowledgeably, and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:
 
       
 
  1.   Buyer and seller are typically motivated;
 
  2.   Both parties are well informed or well advised, and acting in what
 
      they consider their best interests;
 
  3.   A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
 
  4.   Payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of
 
      financial arrangements comparable thereto; and
 
  5.   The price represents the normal consideration for the property sold
 
      unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions
 
      granted by anyone associated with the sale.”
 
       
Property Rights Appraised   The interest being appraised is the Leased Fee Interest. Leased Fee Interest is defined in The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, Fifth Edition, Chicago, Illinois, Appraisal Institute, 2010, as:
 
       
    An ownership interest where the possessory interest has been granted to another party by creation of a contractual landlord tenant relationship, i.e. a lease. The rights of the lessor (the leased fee owner) and the leased fee are specified by contract terms contained within the lease.

Exposure Time
  According to the previously stated definition of Market Value, the property
 
  must be allowed a reasonable time to be exposed in the open market to
 
  achieve the appraised value. Exposure is defined by the Appraisal Institute,
 
  The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, Fifth Edition, Chicago, Illinois,
 
  Appraisal Institute, 2010, as:
 
   
 
  “1. The time a property remains on the market.
 
   
 
  2. The estimated length of time the property interest being appraised
 
  would have been offered on the market prior to the hypothetical
 
  consummation of a sale at market value on the effective date of the
 
  appraisal; a retrospective estimate based upon an analysis of past events
 
  assuming a competitive and open market.”
 
   
 
  Exposure time is always presumed to occur prior to the effective date of
 
  the appraisal. The overall concept of reasonable exposure encompasses
 
  not only adequate, sufficient and reasonable time but also adequate,
 
  sufficient and reasonable effort. Exposure time is different for various
 
  types of real estate and value ranges and under various market
 
  conditions.
 
   
 
  Review of transfer records suggests that there is an active investor
 
  market for good quality apartment properties; however, conventional
 
  sources of capital is somewhat limited and mortgage underwriting has
 
  remained conservative with a greater level of equity required to obtain
 
  financing in comparison to the period leading up to September 2008.
 
  These factors have impacted sales activity for most types of investment
 
  grade real estate.
 
   
 
  We believe that if the subject property were exposed to the market for a
 
  reasonable period of time prior to the effective date of this appraisal,
 
  which we consider to be a period of up to 12 months, the subject
 
  property would transfer at an appropriate price, that is to say, the
 
  appraised value. Support for this exposure period is provided by the PwC
 
  Real Estate Investor Survey Third Quarter 2011, which indicates that
 
  marketing times for apartment properties in the national market range
 
  from none to 18 months. The average marketing time equates to 5.85
 
  months, down from 7.16 months reported one year ago. This marketing
 
  period is supported by data in the local market.
 
   
 
  We acknowledge that in appraising the property to sell after the
 
  aforementioned exposure period, we must place most emphasis on the
 
  buyer’s expectations and yield requirements. The value conclusion
 
  rendered for the property through implementation of the Income
 
  Capitalization Approach has been accorded most significance as this
 
  technique most closely emulates buyer’s expectations and yield
 
  requirements. The market value estimate concluded herein assumes an
 
  exposure and marketing period of up to 12 months has occurred.

Heading west out of the City, households with incomes of $100,000 or more are concentrated in Montgomery County’s townships of Lower Merion, Upper Merion and through King of Prussia to the northeastern region of Chester County. Other pockets of high-income households west of the City are found in Concordville in Delaware County and New Garden in Southern Chester County. North of the City, the wealthiest households are located in Willow Grove within Montgomery County and Richboro in Bucks County. The most affluent area of Center City Philadelphia is Rittenhouse Square.
 
   
Transportation
  Philadelphia’s transportation network is one of the more comprehensive in the nation and includes modes of transportation by land, air and water. More than 2,500 miles of federal and state highways run through the metropolitan area, making it accessible from any direction. The most significant addition to the freeway system is the 21.5-mile Mid-County Expressway, commonly known as the “Blue Route,” which was completed in 1992 after 25 years of construction. The expressway serves as a beltway through Philadelphia’s western suburbs and provides travelers with a connection between Interstate 95 at Chester, southwest of the City and Interstate 76, also known as the Pennsylvania Turnpike, at Plymouth Meeting northwest of the City. Major interstates that run through and around downtown Philadelphia include I-95, I-76 and I-676.
 
   
 
  The region’s rail and public transit infrastructure is comprised of several different systems. Philadelphia’s Amtrak station is the second busiest and handled more than 3.97 million passengers in 2008, providing convenient, high-speed connections to Boston, New York City, Baltimore and Washington, D.C. AMTRAK’s 30th Street Station, located. The City Transit Division of the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) serves the City of Philadelphia with a system of 84 subway, light rail, trackless trolley and bus routes providing nearly 554,000 passenger trips per day. The Regional Rail Division of SEPTA serves all five suburban Philadelphia counties with seven commuter rail lines providing nearly 79,000 passenger trips per day. SEPTA’s Suburban Operations Division serves the western and northern suburbs with a system of 41 inter-urban trolley, light rail and bus routes providing nearly 44,000 passenger trips per day.
 
   
 
  The Port Authority Transit Corporation (PATCO) Hi-Speed line serves commuters in the New Jersey suburbs of Philadelphia. PATCO trains run 24 hours a day from nine stations in New Jersey to four stations in Philadelphia and handles over 40,000 passengers per day.
 
   
 
  Together, the average weekday number of passengers using SEPTA, PATCO, and NJ Transit in 2008 was 309,256.
 
   
 
  Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) is the area’s principal gateway. Positioned at the center of the Northeast corridor, 50% of the American population are within two hours flying time of PHL. The airport handles

  approximately 500,000 aircraft departures and landings and more than 20 million passengers per year. The Airport provides non-stop flights to more than 80 domestic and 40 international destinations, including non- stop flights to most major European cities. In addition, eight all-cargo airlines handle nearly 590,000 tons of cargo annually. The airport currently consists of five terminals and four runways but recently underwent a major capital improvement program to expand its facilities. The expansion included the construction of a new 5,000 foot, $221 million commuter runway, a $75 million 190,000 square-foot regional terminal accommodating commuter and turbo-prop aircraft, and a new $325 million, 785,000 square-foot international terminal with 12 wide- body international gates.
 
   
 
  The Port of Philadelphia and Camden, located at the head of the Delaware Bay, is one of the nation’s major deep-water seaports and is the second busiest port on the North Atlantic coast for total volume. The port handles more than one-quarter of the entire North Atlantic District’s annual tonnage and is the fourth largest in the U.S. for handling imported goods. Over 60 million metric tons of cargo moves through the port annually and over 3,000 ships load and offload at the port each year. The port is strategically located at the center of the Northeast Corridor, the nation’s largest and richest marketplace, and is directly accessible by rail and truck to more major cities than any other port in the nation.
 
   
Conclusions
  Philadelphia is located centrally in the Boston to Washington corridor; has excellent highway, rail and water access, an educated workforce and a wealth of cultural attractions. Inline with the rest of the country as a major urban city, Philadelphia has felt the challenges of the national recession and has seen job losses in many industries. The recession apparently ended in 2010, and the economy is expected to gain steam in 2011. Given its location, transportation network and diverse and educated workforce, the region has good potential for growth over the long-term.

Introduction
  According to Falls Township, the subject property is situated in an HR
 
  High-Density Residential District. The purpose and intent of this district
 
  is to provide areas for attached dwellings at appropriate locations on
 
  arterial and collector streets and near convenient shopping, to broaden
 
  the Township’s housing base and therefore serve a greater variety of
 
  housing needs, to provide reasonable standards to prevent overcrowding
 
  of land, to regulate the density of population and to avoid undue
 
  congestion in the streets, to allow for the harmonious development of
 
  attached dwellings and to create conditions conducive to carrying out the
 
  broad purposes of this chapter.
 
   
 
  The principal permitted uses includes all low-density dwellings,
 
  townhouses and other attached dwellings, garden apartments and high-
 
  rise apartments. No commercial uses are permitted under the HR zone.
 
   
 
  The bulk restrictions in the HR High-Density Residential District are

Conclusions
  The subject has a rentable area of 660,220 square feet. As all the residential dwellings are two-story buildings, the footprint of the building is 330,110. The building coverage is less than 15%. According to management, there are 1,484 parking spaces at the site, which is greater than the minimum requirement set forth by the zoning code. The residential portion of the subject appears to represent a legal and conforming use.
 
   
 
  The subject also includes a mini mart with four commercial tenants, which mainly serve the subject’s residents. As commercial use is not permitted under HR zone, this portion is considered a legal but non- conforming use.

  HIGHEST AND BEST USE
 
   
Introduction
  Highest and Best Use is defined by the Appraisal Institute in The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, Fifth Edition, Chicago, Illinois, Appraisal Institute, 2010, which states:
 
   
 
  That reasonably probable and legal use of vacant land or an improved property, which is physically possible, appropriately supported, financially feasible and that results in the highest value. The four criteria the highest and best use must meet are legal permissibility, physical possibility, financial feasibility and maximum productivity.
 
   
 
  There are typically two Highest and Best Use scenarios: the Highest and Best Use of the property as vacant and the Highest and Best Use of the site as if improved.
 
   
HIGHEST AND BEST USE AS
VACANT
   
    Highest and Best Use As Vacant is defined as “among all reasonable, alternative uses, the use that yields the highest present land value, after payments are made for labor, capital, and coordination. The use of a property based on the assumption that the parcel of land is vacant or can be made vacant by demolishing any improvements.”
 
   
 
  The site is zoned within the HR-High Density Residential Zoning District that allows for a variety of residential uses. The maximum value of a property is typically realized when a reasonable degree of homogeneity is present. Thus, conformity in use is usually a highly desirable aspect of real property, since it creates and/or maintains value. The immediate area is primarily developed with garden style apartment complexes, vacant land and commercial uses. Based on the principal of conformity and the subject’s zoning, the highest and best use of the property, if vacant, is residential development.
 
   
HIGHEST AND BEST USE AS
IMPROVED
   
    Highest and Best Use As Improved is defined as “the use that should be made of a property as it exists. An existing property should be renovated or retained as is so long as it continues to contribute to the total market value of the property, or until the return from a new improvement would more than offset the cost of demolishing the existing building and constructing a new one”.
 
   
 
  The subject represents a legal, conforming improvement relative to current zoning restrictions. No redevelopment of the site would provide a greater return to the land. Based on the fact that the potential income associated with the existing improvements provides a fair return to the land with residual income to the improvements, the highest and best use of the subject, as improved, is its current use.

  VALUATION PROCESS
 
   
Introduction
  There are three traditional approaches that can be employed in establishing the market value of the subject property. In practice, an approach to value is included or omitted based on the property type and the quality and quantity of information available in the marketplace. These approaches and their applicability to the valuation of the subject are summarized as follows.
 
   
Income Approach
  The Income Capitalization Approach is based on the premise that value is derived by converting anticipated benefits into property value. Anticipated benefits include the present value of the net income and the present value of the net proceeds resulting from the re-sale of the property.
 
   
 
  There are two methods of accomplishing this: (1) direct capitalization of a single year’s income by an overall capitalization rate and; (2) the discounted cash flow in which the annual cash flows and reversionary value are discounted to a present value for the remainder of the property’s productive life or over a reasonable holding (ownership) period.
 
   
 
  The subject property has an adequate operations history to determine the income-producing capabilities over the near future. In addition, performance levels of competitive properties serve as an adequate check as to the reasonableness of the subject property’s actual performance. As such, the income capitalization approach is utilized in this appraisal.
 
   
Sales Comparison
  The sales comparison approach is an estimate of value based upon a process of comparing recent sales of similar properties in the surrounding or competing areas to the subject property. Inherent in and central to this approach is the principle of substitution. This comparative process involves judgment as to the similarity of the subject property and the comparable sales with respect to many value factors such as location, contract rent levels, quality of construction, reputation and prestige, age and condition and the interest transferred, among others. The value estimated through this approach represents the probable price at which the subject property would be sold by a willing seller to a willing and knowledgeable buyer as of the date of value.
 
   
 
  The reliability of this technique is dependent upon the availability of comparable sales data, the verification of the sales data, the degree of comparability and extent of adjustment necessary for differences and the absence of atypical conditions affecting the individual sales prices. Although the volume of sales activity has decreased as a result of market conditions, research revealed adequate sales activity to form a reasonable estimation of value via this approach.

The Cost Approach
  The application of the cost approach is based on the principle of substitution. This principle may be stated as follows: no one is justified in paying more for a property than the cost to develop a substitute property of equivalent desirability and utility. In the case of a new building, no deficiencies in the building should exist. The Cost Approach is typically only a reliable indicator of value for (a) new properties; (b) special use properties; and (c) where the cost of reproducing the improvements is easily and accurately quantified and there is no external obsolescence. In all instances, the issue of an appropriate entrepreneurial profit — the reward for undertaking the risk of construction — remains a highly subjective factor.
 
   
 
  Investors are generally not buying, selling, or lending with reliance placed on the Cost Approach. Furthermore, based on the age of the improvements, the Cost Approach would lend little insight into the market value of the property. Accordingly, the Cost Approach has been excluded from the scope of this appraisal.
 
   
Reconciliation
  The final step in the appraisal process is to reconcile the various value indications into a single estimate. Each approach is reviewed in order to determine its appropriateness relative to the subject. The accuracy of the data available and the quantity of evidence are weighted in each approach. The resulting estimate represents the subject property’s market value as defined in the appraisal.

  INCOME CAPITALIZATION APPROACH
 
   
Introduction
  The Income Capitalization Approach is based on the theory that value is the present worth of future benefits. The future benefits of ownership consist of the present worth of the net income which will accrue to the owner of the property, plus the present value of the net proceeds resulting from the eventual disposition of the property. The two most commonly used techniques of converting net income into value in the Income Capitalization Approach are Direct Capitalization and the Discounted Cash Flow Analysis.
 
   
 
  The Direct Capitalization method is considered most relevant and has been processed. Direct Capitalization is a method utilized to convert a single year’s estimate of net income (before debt service) into an indication of value by the use of an Overall Capitalization Rate.
 
   
Revenue Analysis
Potential Gross Income
 
The potential gross income from the apartment has been calculated to be $726,190 per month or $8,714,280 for the appraised year based on the analysis and conclusions derived in the Apartment Market Analysis section.
 
   
Loss to Lease
  Loss to lease considers a loss in income due to leases in effect, whereby effective rental rates are lower than asking or market rental rates. In the case of the subject property, the loss to lease also accounts partially for concessions that are offered in the form of reduced rent.
 
   
 
  The operating statements under review indicate the historical loss to lease was positive 0.1 percent of gross potential rent in 2008, positive 7.1 percent in 2009, negative 0.9 percent in 2010 and negative 7.2 percent for the trailing 12 months between November 2010 and October 2011. The submitted October 28, 2011 rent roll indicated a loss to lease of approximately negative 1.7 percent. Considerate of the historical data, a loss to lease of negative 3.0 percent of gross rent potential has been processed.
 
   
Concessions
  Concessions within the subject’s influencing area are common. Each of the properties surveyed as rent comparables offer some form of rent concession. The concessions consist of reduced rent or free rent over a portion of the lease term.
 
   
 
  According to operating statements under review, concessions were 1.6 percent in 2008, 2.4 percent in 2009, 2.1 percent in 2010 and 1.4 percent for the trailing 12 months between November 2010 and October 2011. Based on the historical experience, concessions of 2.0 percent have been processed in this analysis.

Vacancy/Credit Loss
  The subject was reportedly 94.6% occupied in 2008, 89.6% percent occupied in 2009, 95.5% occupied in 2010 and 96.3 percent occupied for the trailing 12 months between November 2010 and October 2011. As of the October 28, 2011 rent roll, the property was 95.3% occupied. The 2010 and current occupancy levels are consistent with the range of occupancy levels reported by competitors in the immediate vicinity. Occupancy levels for the competing properties in the influencing market are outlined as follows:
                         
OVERVIEW OF COMPETITIVE OCCUPANCY LEVELS
 
Property   Year Built     Total Units     Occupancy  
Chesterfield
    1968       247       97 %
Hidden Forest
    1973       238       95 %
Racquet Club
    1970       466       97 %
     
 
  The subject occupancy is currently operating at stabilized occupancy. The subject should reasonably maintain this level into the foreseeable future. As such, a stabilized vacancy and credit loss of 5.0 percent has been utilized in this appraisal.
 
   
Commercial Rent
  There is a small retail component at the subject that includes four commercial spaces. Three of the spaces are leased to a sports bar, cleaner and a convenience store. According to the supplied rent roll, the total commercial rent in the trailing 12 months was $109,728. It is noted that one of the spaces is vacant. Considerate of the current tenants at the subject as wells as the historical rent for this space a market rent of $1,500 per month has been processed for the vacant space. As such, a commercial rent of $124,212 has been processed in the analysis.
 
   
Miscellaneous Income
  Typically, apartment projects receive additional revenue from sources such as utility reimbursements, vending, application fees, late fees, bad check charges and deposit forfeitures. Income receipts at the subject property were $1,647 per unit in 2008, $1,811 per unit in 2009, $1,650 per unit in 2010 and was $1,642 per unit for the trailing 12 months. This income is projected based on the trailing 12 months at $1,700 per unit.
 
   
Non-income Producing Units
  There are two model units at the subject and a deduction from potential gross income was applied in 2008, 2009, 2010 and the trailing 12 months. Accordingly, market rent has been applied to these units and deducted from the gross potential income equating to $22,560 for the appraised fiscal year.
 
   
OPERATING EXPENSES
  In order to estimate expenses for the subject property, we have analyzed the subject’s operating expenses for 2008, 2009 and 2010 as well as the trailing 12 months from November 2010 through October 2011. These historical and budgeted amounts have been compared to the median dollar amount per unit reported by IREM for garden apartments in the Philadelphia Area. The subject’s operating statements under review have been reconstructed and summarized as follows.

Overview
  All of the expenses have fluctuated during the past couple of years. In general, expenses are consistent with market data and reflect stabilized operations. No major changes in operations are expected or appear to be required. Expenses are expected to grow at the average annual inflation rate. Each of the expense items is discussed separately below.
 
   
Utilities
  This expense line item includes charges for common area and individual unit gas, electricity, water/sewer and trash collection. Utility charges are offset by applicable tenant reimbursements. At the subject property, electric is directly metered, while water, gas and trash are billed to tenants.
 
   
 
  Utility expenses fluctuate with occupancy, weather and changes in supply costs. The utility expenses at the subject property were $1,280 per unit in 2008, $1,182 per unit in 2009, $1,272 per unit in 2010 and were $1,165 per unit in the trailing 12 months. The IREM survey indicated that the median for garden complexes in the area is $1,103 per unit, slightly below the historical amounts. Based on the historical expenses, a projection of $1,200 per unit or $866,400 is processed for the utility expense.
 
   
Repairs & Maintenance
  This expense item includes charges for general maintenance and repairs, alarm monitoring and protection services, landscaping and make-ready/turnover. The property appears adequately maintained with no noticeable items of deferred maintenance observed during the walk-thru.
 
   
 
  The repairs and maintenance expense at the subject property were $859 per unit in 2008, $871 per unit in 2009, $877 per unit in 2010 and was $1,117 per unit in the trailing 12 months. The IREM survey indicated that the median for garden complexes in the area is $770 per unit, below the historical reported amounts. Based on the historical expenses, a repairs and maintenance expense of $875 per unit or $631,750 has been processed. A separate Reserves category has been processed in this analysis.

Marketing
  This expense includes advertising, the cost of resident and locator referrals, internal leasing commissions, brochures, newsletters and resident activities. The historical marketing charges at the subject property were $112 per unit in 2008, $83 per unit in 2009, $124 per unit in 2010 and was $125 per unit in the trailing 12 months. The IREM survey reported a marketing expense of $451 per unit. Based on the historical data and the subject’s current occupancy, the trailing 12 months appears reasonable and has been processed at $125 per unit or $90,250 is processed. The IREM report appears excessive given the subject’s relatively consistent history.

Administration/Office
  This category includes administrative charges and costs associated with the running of the management/leasing office including telephone service, office supplies equipment rental, computers, etc. The administrative expense at the subject property were $183 per unit in 2008, $278 per unit in 2009, $311 per unit in 2010 and was $312 per unit in the trailing 12 months. The IREM survey indicated that the median for garden complexes in the area is $594 per unit, above the historical and budgeted amounts. Based on subject’s own operating history, an administrative expense of $319 per unit or $230,000 is processed.
 
   
Management Fee
  In the local market management services are typically a function of the revenues produced by the property, usually between 3.0 and 5.0 percent of collections. Based on historical operating statements under review, the subject property was managed for a fee that is equivalent to approximately 5.0 percent of collected income at the high end of the market range. Management fees of 5.0 percent of the effective gross income has been processed in this analysis.
 
   
Insurance
  Insurance includes fire, liability, theft, and boiler, exclusive of the premiums paid to employee benefit plans. The historical insurance expenses at the subject property were $355 per unit in 2008, $274 per unit in 2009, $297 per unit in 2010 and were $292 per unit in the trailing 12 months. The IREM survey indicated that the median for garden complexes in the area is $178 per unit, below the historical amounts. Based on the historical data, the trailing 12 month insurance expense has been rounded to $300 per unit or $216,600 annually.
 
   
Real Estate Taxes
  In the market if taxes are paid two months prior to their respective due dates, the owner receives a 2.0 percent discount on the tax liability. As developed in the Real Estate Assessment and Tax Analysis section of this report, the subject’s real estate tax liability (with early payment discount) equates to $782,555 in the first year of the analysis. Assuming prudent management, this discount has been processed.
 
   
Reserves
  Prudent management budgets a certain amount each year in a sinking fund to replace short-lived items, including kitchen appliances and cabinets, bathroom fixtures and tiling, flooring repairs, HVAC replacement and common elements such as the roof, exterior wood and parking areas. Reserves for replacement, while typically not found in submitted operating statements, are necessary in estimating a realistic operating budget so as to maintain the habitability of the apartments. Reserves for replacement for a property of this vintage typically range from $200 to $300 per unit. In order to remain competitive, a reserve of $250 per unit is forecast. This amounts to $180,500.

  As indicated below, overall rates in the National Apartment Market began to increase in the Third Quarter 2008 and continued this trend through the Fourth Quarter of 2009. However, during 2010 through the Third Quarter of 2011, average overall rates have decreased by an average of 29.3 basis points per quarter. This data seems to support the overall perception that multi-family housing has passed its nadir and is attracting significant investor interest resulting in appreciation over 2009 levels.

Conclusion of OAR
  The subject is an average quality apartment complex situated in an established residential neighborhood. The property is proximate to employment centers, shopping and neighborhood support facilities. The subject has unit sizes that reflect market parameters. The amenity package is considered standard when compared to properties in the competitive market.
 
    OARs ranging from 5.7 to 7.55 percent were indicated from comparable sales. Three of the five comparables indicated rates above 7.0 percent with the two additional sales being located in superior areas. The PwC survey indicates an average rate for the national apartment market of 5.98 percent. Considering the subject’s age and occupancy, a capitalization rate of 7.25 percent has been selected.
 
   
VALUE BY DIRECT CAPITALIZATION
Stabilized Cash Flow
  The stabilized cash flow is based on the previous income and expense discussion.
 
   
Valuation
  Value is calculated by dividing the stabilized net operating income (including an allowance for Reserves) by the concluded overall capitalization rate. Thus the market value of the leased fee interest is calculated as follows:
 
   
 
  $4,812,241 ÷ 7.25% = $66,375,738
 
   
Direct Capitalization Value
Conclusion
  The Market Value of the Leased Fee Interest in the subject property, free and clear of financing, by the Direct Capitalization method of the Income Capitalization Approach, as of December 1, 2011, is rounded to:
 
   
 
  SIXTY SIX MILLION FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
($66,400,000)

SALES COMPARISON APPROACH
         
VALUATION
       
METHODOLOGY   The basic steps in processing the sales comparison approach are outlined as follows:
 
       
 
  1.   Research the market for recent sales transactions, listings, and offers to purchase
 
      or sell properties similar to the subject property.
 
  2.   Select a relevant unit of comparison and develop a comparative analysis.
 
  3.   Compare comparable sale properties with the subject property using the elements of
 
      comparison and adjust the price of each comparable to the subject property.
 
  4.   Reconcile the various value indications produced by the analysis of the comparables.
 
REGIONAL SALES
MARKET
 
The local market has been active in terms of investment sales of similar properties. Adequate sales exist to formulate a defensible value for the subject property via sales comparison.
 
       
PRESENTATION OF
COMPARABLE SALES
 
To estimate the property value by the sales comparison approach, comparable sales from the influencing market that are most similar to the subject property in terms of age, size, tenant profile and location have been analyzed. The sales are compared on a price-per-unit basis, as this is a common method of comparison for such properties.
 
       
    Three sales were selected for analysis from the suburban and northern Philadelphia markets. Other more recent sales were identified by the appraiser; however, due the fact that these sales were located further from the subject property in less similar markets or were physically less similar to the subject. As such, these transactions have not been presented herein, but have been considered for general market conditions. The three comparable sales presented represent the most similar properties identified in our survey.
 
       
    The comparable sales summarized in the chart that follows and plotted on the following map, range in price from $80,729 to $103,125 per unit. While these unit prices implicitly contain both the physical and economic factors affecting real estate, these statistics do not explicitly convey many of the details surrounding a specific property. Thus, this single index to the valuation of the subject property has some limitations.

ANALYSIS OF SALES
  The comparables are examined by considering the following adjustment factors.
 
   
Property Rights Conveyed
  The interest being appraised is the Leased Fee Interest. All sales were sold for its Leased Fee Interest and no adjustment for property rights is required.
 
   
Financing Terms
  The comparable sales were either all cash transactions or were financed by primary lenders at market-oriented rates. Considerate of such, no adjustments for any unusual or atypical financing is required.
 
   
Conditions of Sale
  Adjustments for conditions of sale usually reflect the motivations of the buyer and the seller. We are not aware of any atypical circumstances regarding any of the comparable sales. Personal property is included as all facilities have similar unit appliances and miscellaneous office and common area FF&E.
 
   
Expenditures Made Immediately
   
After Sale
  Any required major capital costs incurred by the buyer immediately after the sale is appropriately added to the purchase price. None of the sales required any specific sale price adjustment other than what is included in general comparisons based on condition.
 
   
Market Conditions
  Comparable sales that occurred under different market conditions than those applicable to the subject property as of the effective date of appraisal require adjustment for any differences that affect their values. The comparable sales occurred between October 2010 and January 2011. Although overall rates continue to drop, these rate declines have been offset somewhat by rental rate reductions and expense inflation. Accordingly, only moderate appreciation is noted. As all of the sales occurred at the end of 2010 or the first half of 2011, no adjustments for market conditions have been processed.
 
   
Location
  An adjustment for location is appropriate when the location characteristics of a comparable property are different from those of the subject. Adjustments have been made on an individual basis.
 
   
Physical Characteristics
  Physical differences include differences in building size, quality of construction, building materials, age, condition, functional utility and appearance. Adjustments to the comparables have been applied on an individual basis.
 
   
Average Unit Size
  The subject has an average unit size of 914 square feet. Properties with larger average unit sizes tend to trade at a higher price per unit, all other factors being equal. Conversely, properties with smaller average unit sizes tend to trade at a lower price per unit. The average unit size of each comparable property is compared to the subject and applicable adjustments are applied when warranted.

Analysis:
  No adjustment for market conditions has been processed. The comparable is located in Bensalem, PA, which is considered a similar location to that of the subject and no adjustment has been applied for location. The occupied units had been substantially renovated prior to the sale. The vacant units were in poor condition and were to be renovated by the new owner. The renovated units would be considered slightly superior to the subject; however, the un-renovated units would be significantly inferior. As such, the age and condition are considered equivalent to the subject. However, the quality is considered inferior and requires a slight upward adjustment. This comparable’s average unit size is 744 square feet which is considered inferior to the subject’s average unit size of 914 square feet and therefore a slight upward adjustment has been applied for average unit size. Amenities at the comparable are considered inferior and a slight upward adjustment has been applied. Overall, a moderate upward adjustment to the market adjusted unit price is warranted.

VALUE CONCLUSION
  After analysis and adjustments, a value range of $91,072 to $97,969 per unit is indicated. Greatest reliance is given to Sales No. 1 and 2 as they are the most proximate to the subject and are the most current. These sales indicated a range of $91,072 to $92,838 per unit. Accordingly, a unit value of $92,000 per unit is concluded for the subject property.
 
   
 
  722 units x $92,000 per unit = $66,424,000
 
   
 
  Accordingly, the Market Value of the Leased Fee interest in the subject property as of December 1, 2011, free and clear of financing, via the Sales Comparison Approach, is rounded to:
 
   
 
  SIXTY SIX MILLION FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
($66,400,000)

  RECONCILIATION AND FINAL ESTIMATE OF VALUE
 
   
Review
  The purpose of this appraisal is to provide an estimate of the market value of the leased fee interest in the subject property, free and clear of financing. The date of value is December 1, 2011. The indicated market value estimates for the real property interest appraised are:
 
   
 
 
Income Capitalization Approach
$66,400,000
Sales Comparison Approach
$66,400,000
 
   
Income Approach
  The Income Capitalization Approach seeks to view the subject property’s value from the perspective of the typical investor. This approach reflects the relationship between the income a property is capable of generating and its true value in the marketplace. Typical investors judge the value of a property based upon the quality and quantity of the income generated, as well as the likely impact of market conditions on future income generation. The Income Capitalization Approach, by considering these factors provides a good measure of value for this type of property and has been utilized as the primary approach in concluding to value.
 
   
Sales Approach
  This approach provides an estimate of value based upon the recent activities of buyers and sellers in the marketplace. This approach is generally considered to be reliable in active markets where the motivations of buyers and sellers are known and the operating characteristics of the properties being transferred are available for scrutiny. Market research revealed adequate sales of properties that are considered comparable to the subject property. The value conclusion derived via this approach is considered directly supportive of that concluded via the Income Approach.
 
   
The Cost Approach
  The Cost Approach was excluded from the scope of this assignment.
 
   
Conclusions
  Both the Income Capitalization and Sales Comparison Approaches to value have been processed and suggest a market value of $66,400,000. Each approach has merit and similar limitations. As noted above, greatest reliance has been placed on the Income Capitalization Approach. Based on the data, analyses and conclusions contained within this appraisal report, the Market Value of the Leased Fee Interest in the subject property, free and clear of financing, as of December 1, 2011 is:
 
   
 
  SIXTY SIX MILLION FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
($66,400,000)
EXTRAORDINARY ASSUMPTION
KTR previously inspected the subject property on March 9, 2011. The scope of work of this appraisal did not include a physical inspection of the subject property. The values derived herein are based on the extraordinary assumption that the physical condition of the subject property has not materially changed since the date of our last inspection. Should this assumption be incorrect, the values reported herein may be materially impacted.
