Residential is currently our primary antecedent of acquirement and will drive our abeyant approaching growth. The asset administering acceding with Residential entitles us to "incentive administering fees," that accord us a allotment of Residential's banknote breeze accessible for administering to its stockholders as Residential grows, as able-bodied as acceding for assertive aerial and operating expenses. Accordingly, our operating after-effects are awful abased on Residential's adeptness to accomplish absolute operating results.
We access assured that Residential is a capricious absorption article because Residential's disinterestedness holders abridgement the adeptness through voting rights to accomplish decisions about Residential's activities that access a cogent aftereffect on the success of Residential. We access additionally assured that we are the primary almsman of Residential's banking action and after-effects of operations because beneath the Residential asset administering acceding we access the adeptness to absolute the activities of Residential that best decidedly appulse Residential's bread-and-butter achievement including establishing Residential's beforehand and business strategy.

On January 28, 2014, Residential consummated the aboriginal closing of an accretion of mortgage loans from HUD, consisting of 66 mortgage loans with $7 actor of UPB and $7 actor in accumulated bazaar bulk of basal properties. This represented the aboriginal acclimation of Residential's acceding with HUD to acquirement 164 mortgage loans with about $19 actor of UPB and about $18 actor in accumulated bazaar bulk of basal properties. We apprehend Residential to abutting the actual allocation of this portfolio in the aboriginal division of 2014. There can be no affirmation that Residential will access the butt of the HUD portfolio in accomplished or in allotment on a appropriate base or at all;
On January 31, 2014, Residential acquired an added 3,421 mortgage loans with about $988 actor of UPB and about $792 actor in accumulated bazaar bulk of basal properties.

We access that Residential qualifies to be burdened as a REIT. We access that Residential will not be accountable to federal assets tax on that allocation of its assets that is broadcast to shareholders as connected as Residential meets assertive asset, assets and allotment buying tests. If Residential fails to authorize as a REIT, and does not authorize for assertive approved abatement provisions, its profits will be accountable to assets taxes and it may be precluded from condoning as a REIT for the four tax years afterward the year it loses its REIT qualification. A allocation of Residential's activities are conducted in a TRS, which is accountable to accumulated federal and accompaniment assets taxes. Accordingly, Residential has fabricated a accouterment for assets taxes with account to the operations of its TRS. Our ambition is to administer Residential's business to booty abounding advantage of the tax allowances afforded to it as a REIT.
Observations on Accepted Bazaar Opportunities
We access there is currently a cogent bazaar befalling to access single-family rental backdrop through the afflicted accommodation approach and apprehend the accumulation of non-performing loans, sub-performing loans (defined as loans that are added than 60 canicule delinquent), backdrop in foreclosure and REO to access over the abutting several years as banks and added mortgage lenders seek to actuate of these afflicted inventories which they accumulated during the contempo bread-and-butter crisis. We abide to see abundant volumes of afflicted residential mortgage accommodation sales offered for bargain by banks, HUD and clandestine disinterestedness funds, amid others. We access Residential is well-positioned to be called as the client of assorted portfolios of such loans back it is not geographically constrained. We access that this afflicted accommodation approach gives Residential a bulk advantage over added accretion channels such as foreclosure auctions and REO acquisitions because:
we access there are beneath participants in the sub-performing and non-performing accommodation exchange than in the foreclosure bargain and added REO accretion channels due to the ample admeasurement of portfolios offered for bargain on an "all or none" base and the appropriate operational basement complex in application loans and managing single-family rental backdrop above assorted states. We access the almost lower akin of antagonism for sub-performing and non-performing loans, accumulated with growing supply, provides buyers with the befalling for a college abatement bulk about to the foreclosure bargain and added REO accretion channels and accordingly a almost lower bulk to ultimately access single-family rental properties.
we access that Residential will be able to acquirement residential mortgage loans at a lower bulk than REO backdrop because sellers of such loans will be able to abstain advantageous the costs about associated with home sales, such as agent commissions and closing costs of up to 10% of gross accretion of the sale. We access this will actuate the sellers to access a lower bulk for the sub-performing and non-performing loans than they would if affairs REO.
Use of the afflicted accommodation approach gives Residential assorted resolution methodologies to alleviate asset value. Residential's adopted resolution alignment is to adapt the sub-performing and non-performing loans. We access modification followed by refinancing generates near-term banknote flows, provides the accomplished accessible bread-and-butter aftereffect for Residential and is a socially amenable business action because it keeps added families in their homes. We apprehend a majority of Residential's acquired mortgage loans that are adapted to REO to become single-family rental backdrop that we access will accomplish abiding allotment for Residential's stockholders. If a REO acreage meets Residential's rental profile, it determines the admeasurement of renovations that are bare to accomplish an optimal hire and beforehand bendability of beforehand blueprint for approaching branding. If we actuate that the REO acreage will not accommodated Residential's rental profile, Residential lists the acreage for sale, in abounding instances afterwards renovations are fabricated to optimize the bargain proceeds.

Revenues
Residential's revenues initially primarily abide of the following:
i. Net abeyant assets from the about-face of loans to REO. Aloft about-face of loans to REO, Residential marks the backdrop to the best contempo bazaar bulk (less estimated affairs costs in the case of REO captivated for sale). The aberration amid the accustomed bulk of asset at the time of about-face and best contempo bazaar value, based on agent bulk opinions, is recorded in Residential's account of operations as net abeyant gains.

Short-term leases may aftereffect in aerial turnover, which involves costs such as beforehand costs and business costs, or bargain rental revenues.
Although we about seek to charter the REO Residential acquires on foreclosure, we may actuate to advertise the backdrop that do not accommodated Residential's beforehand criteria. The absolute acreage bazaar and home prices will actuate accretion from any bargain of absolute estate. In addition, while we seek to clue absolute acreage bulk trends and appraisal the furnishings of those trends on the valuations of Residential's portfolios of residential mortgage loans, approaching absolute acreage ethics are accountable to influences above our control.
