ORGANIZATION
KBS Legacy Partners Apartment REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed on July 31, 2009 as a Maryland corporation that elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2010. Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through KBS Legacy Partners Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership formed on August 4, 2009. The Company is the sole general partner of and owns a 0.1% partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. KBS Legacy Partners Holdings LLC (“REIT Holdings”), a Delaware limited liability company formed on August 4, 2009, owns the remaining 99.9% interest in the Operating Partnership and is its sole limited partner. The Company is the sole member and manager of REIT Holdings.
Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, the business of the Company is externally managed by KBS Capital Advisors LLC (the “Advisor”), an affiliate of the Company, pursuant to an advisory agreement the Company renewed with the Advisor on January 25, 2015 (the “Advisory Agreement”).
On August 7, 2009, the Company issued 20,000 shares of its common stock to KBS-Legacy Apartment Community REIT Venture, LLC (the “Sub-Advisor”), an affiliate of the Company, at a purchase price of $10.00 per share. As of March 31, 2015, the Sub-Advisor owned 20,000 shares of common stock of the Company.
The Company has invested in and manages a portfolio of high quality apartment communities located throughout the United States. The Company’s portfolio consists of “core” apartment buildings that were already well-positioned and producing rental income at acquisition. As of March 31, 2015, the Company owned 11 apartment complexes.
On August 19, 2009, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to offer a minimum of 250,000 shares and a maximum of 280,000,000 shares of common stock for sale to the public (the “Initial Offering”), of which 80,000,000 shares would be offered pursuant to the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan.
The SEC declared the Company’s registration statement for the Initial Offering effective on March 12, 2010, and the Company retained KBS Capital Markets Group LLC (the “Dealer Manager”), an affiliate of the Company, to serve as the dealer manager for the Initial Offering pursuant to a dealer manager agreement dated March 12, 2010 (the “Initial Dealer Manager Agreement”). Under the Initial Dealer Manager Agreement, the Dealer Manager was responsible for marketing the Company’s shares being offered pursuant to the Initial Offering.
On May 31, 2012, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC to register a follow-on public offering (the “Follow-on Offering” and together with the Initial Offering, the “Offerings”). Pursuant to the registration statement, as amended, the Company registered up to an additional $2,000,000,000 of shares of common stock for sale to the public and up to an additional $760,000,000 of shares of common stock pursuant to the dividend reinvestment plan. The SEC declared the Company’s registration statement for the Follow-on Offering effective on March 8, 2013.
The Company retained the Dealer Manager to serve as the dealer manager for the Follow-on Offering pursuant to a dealer manager agreement dated March 8, 2013 (the “Follow-on Dealer Manager Agreement” and together with the Initial Dealer Manager Agreement, the “Dealer Manager Agreements”). On March 12, 2013, the Company ceased offering shares pursuant to the Initial Offering and on March 13, 2013, the Company commenced offering shares to the public pursuant to the Follow-on Offering.
In the Initial Offering, the Company sold 18,088,084 shares of common stock for gross offering proceeds of $179.2 million, including 368,872 shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan for gross offering proceeds of $3.5 million. The Company ceased offering shares in the primary Follow-on Offering on March 31, 2014 and completed subscription processing procedures on April 30, 2014. The Company sold 1,496,198 shares of common stock in the primary Follow-on Offering for gross offering proceeds of $15.9 million.
As of March 31, 2015, the Company had sold an aggregate of 20,648,395 shares of common stock in the Offerings for gross offering proceeds of $205.8 million, including an aggregate of 1,432,985 shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan for gross offering proceeds of $14.3 million. Also, as of March 31, 2015, the Company had redeemed 590,388 shares sold in the Offerings for $5.7 million.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies since it filed its audited financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. For further information about the Company’s accounting policies, refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and condensed notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the financial statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair and consistent presentation of the results for such periods. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, REIT Holdings, the Operating Partnership and their direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements and condensed notes thereto in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the Company’s prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have not changed the results of operations of prior periods.
Segments
The Company had invested in 11 apartment complexes as of March 31, 2015. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue and net income (loss) is from real estate, and therefore, the Company currently operates in one reportable segment.
Per Share Data
Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during such period. Diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock equals basic net income (loss) per share of common stock as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
Distributions declared per common share were $0.160 and $0.160 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Distributions declared per common share assumes each share was issued and outstanding each day during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, distributions were based on daily record dates and calculated at a rate of $0.00178082 per share per day. Each day during the periods from January 1, 2014 through March 31, 2014 and January 1, 2015 through March 31, 2015 was a record date for distributions.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Update
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU No. 2014-09”).  ASU No. 2014-09 requires an entity to recognize the revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.  ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes the revenue requirements in Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification.  ASU No. 2014-09 does not apply to lease contracts within the scope of Leases (Topic 840). ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and is to be applied retrospectively, with early application not permitted.  The Company is still evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2014-09 on its financial statements, but does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 to have a material impact on its financial statements. 
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU No. 2014-15”). The amendments in ASU No. 2014-15 require management to evaluate, for each annual and interim reporting period, whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or are available to be issued when applicable) and, if so, provide related disclosures. ASU No. 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2014-15 to have a significant impact on its financial statements.
In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20), Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items (“ASU No. 2015-01”). The amendments in ASU No. 2015-01 eliminate from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items.  Although the amendments will eliminate the requirements in Subtopic 225-20 for reporting entities to consider whether an underlying event or transaction is extraordinary, the presentation and disclosure guidance for items that are unusual in nature or occur infrequently will be retained and will be expanded to include items that are both unusual in nature and infrequently occurring. ASU No. 2015-01 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2015-01 to have a significant impact on its financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30), Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU No. 2015-03”).  The amendments in ASU No. 2015-03 require debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability, consistent with the presentation of a debt discount. ASU No. 2015-03 is limited to the presentation of debt issuance costs and does not affect the recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs.  ASU No. 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015 and is to be applied retrospectively.  Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued.  The adoption of ASU No. 2015-03 would change the presentation of debt issuance costs, as the Company presents debt issuance costs as deferred financing costs, prepaid expenses and other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Additionally, as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had recorded unamortized tax abatement intangible assets, which are included in deferred financing costs, prepaid expenses and other assets in the accompanying balance sheets, of $3.4 million and $3.4 million, respectively.  During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded amortization expense of $65,000 and $52,000, respectively, related to tax abatement intangible assets. 
Property Damage
During the three months ended March 31, 2015, one of the Company’s apartment complexes suffered physical damage due to storms. The Company’s insurance policies provide coverage for property damage and business interruption subject to a deductible of up to $25,000 per incident.  Based on management’s estimates, the Company recognized an estimated loss due to damage of $77,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2015, which was reduced by an estimated $52,000 insurance recovery related to such damage, which the Company determined was probable of collection. The net loss due to damage of $25,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2015 was classified as operating, maintenance and management expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and relates to the Company’s insurance deductible.  As of March 31, 2015, the total estimated insurance recovery to be collected was $0.3 million, which includes an estimated recovery from a prior year incident, that was classified as deferred financing costs, prepaid expenses and other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES
FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES
Under GAAP, the Company is required to measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. In addition, the Company is required to measure other financial instruments and balances at fair value on a non-recurring basis (e.g., carrying value of impaired real estate loans receivable and long-lived assets). Fair value, as defined under GAAP, is the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The GAAP fair value framework uses a three-tiered approach. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
Level 3: prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available that requires inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
The fair value for certain financial instruments is derived using valuation techniques that involve significant management judgment. The price transparency of financial instruments is a key determinant of the degree of judgment involved in determining the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments. Financial instruments for which actively quoted prices or pricing parameters are available and for which markets contain orderly transactions will generally have a higher degree of price transparency than financial instruments for which markets are inactive or consist of non-orderly trades. The Company evaluates several factors when determining if a market is inactive or when market transactions are not orderly. The following is a summary of the methods and assumptions used by management in estimating the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate the fair value:
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities: These balances approximate their fair values due to the short maturities of these items.
Notes payable: The fair value of the Company’s notes payable is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on management’s estimates of current market interest rates for instruments with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value ratio, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. Additionally, when determining the fair value of liabilities in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, the Company measures fair value using (i) a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as assets or (ii) another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of fair value measurement, such as the income approach or the market approach. The Company classifies these inputs as Level 3 inputs.
The following were the face value, carrying amount and fair value of the Company’s notes payable as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 (dollars in thousands):

Disclosure of the fair values of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to the Company as of the period end and requires a significant amount of judgment. Despite increased capital market and credit market activity, transaction volume for certain financial instruments remains relatively low. This has made the estimation of fair values difficult and, therefore, both the actual results and the Company’s estimate of value at a future date could be materially different.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company has entered into the Advisory Agreement with the Advisor and the Dealer Manager Agreements with the Dealer Manager. These agreements entitled the Advisor and/or the Dealer Manager to specified fees upon the provision of certain services with regard to the Offerings and entitle the Advisor to specified fees upon the provision of certain services with regard to the management of the Company’s real estate properties, among other services, as well as reimbursement of organization and offering costs incurred by the Advisor and the Dealer Manager on behalf of the Company, such as expenses related to the dividend reinvestment plan, and certain costs incurred by the Advisor in providing services to the Company. The Company has also entered into a fee reimbursement agreement with the Dealer Manager pursuant to which the Company agreed to reimburse the Dealer Manager for certain fees and expenses it incurs for administering the Company’s participation in the DTCC Alternative Investment Product Platform with respect to certain accounts of the Company’s investors serviced through the platform. The Advisor and Dealer Manager also serve as the advisor and dealer manager, respectively, for KBS Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc., KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc., KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III, Inc., KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc. and KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT II, Inc. and anticipate serving as the advisor and dealer manager, respectively, for KBS Growth & Income REIT, Inc.
On January 6, 2014, the Company, together with KBS Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc., KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc., KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III, Inc., KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc., KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT II, Inc., the Dealer Manager, the Advisor and other KBS-affiliated entities, entered into an errors and omissions and directors and officers liability insurance program where the lower tiers of such insurance coverage are shared. The cost of these lower tiers is allocated by the Advisor and its insurance broker among each of the various entities covered by the program, and is billed directly to each entity. The allocation of these shared coverage costs is proportionate to the pricing by the insurance marketplace for the first tiers of directors and officers liability coverage purchased individually by each REIT. The Advisor’s and the Dealer Manager’s portion of the shared lower tiers’ cost is proportionate to the respective entities’ prior cost for the errors and omissions insurance.
During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, no other transactions occurred between the Company and KBS Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc., KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc., KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III, Inc., KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc. and KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT II, Inc.
Pursuant to the terms of these agreements and the property management agreements discussed below, summarized below are the related-party costs incurred by the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and any related amounts payable as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 (in thousands):

____________________
(1) See “Advisory Agreement – Asset Management Fees” below.
(2) Reimbursable operating expenses primarily consists of marketing research costs and property pursuit costs incurred by the Sub-Advisor. In addition, the Advisor may seek reimbursement for certain employee costs under the Advisory Agreement. Beginning July 1, 2010, the Company has reimbursed the Advisor for the Company’s allocable portion of the salaries, benefits and overhead of internal audit department personnel providing services to the Company. These amounts totaled $24,400 and $23,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and were the only employee costs reimbursable under the Advisory Agreement through March 31, 2015. The Company will not reimburse for employee costs in connection with services for which the Advisor earns acquisition or disposition fees (other than reimbursement of travel and communication expenses) or for the salaries or benefits the Advisor or its affiliates may pay to the Company’s executive officers.
(3) See “— Property Management — Account Services Agreements.”
(4) See “— Other Offering Costs Related to Follow-on Offering.”
In connection with the Offering, the Company’s sponsors agreed to provide additional indemnification to one of the participating broker dealers.  The Company agreed to add supplemental coverage to its directors’ and officers’ insurance coverage to insure the sponsors’ obligations under this indemnification agreement in exchange for reimbursement by the sponsors to the Company for all costs, expenses and premiums related to this supplemental coverage.  During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Advisor did not incur any costs related to the supplemental coverage.
Other Offering Costs Related to Follow-on Offering
The offering costs related to the Follow-on Offering (other than selling commissions and dealer manager fees) were either paid directly by the Company or in some instances were paid by the Advisor, the Dealer Manager or their affiliates on the Company’s behalf. Offering costs include all expenses in connection with an offering and are charged as incurred as a reduction to stockholders’ equity.
Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement and the Follow-on Dealer Manager Agreement, the Company is obligated to reimburse the Advisor, the Dealer Manager or their affiliates, as applicable, for offering costs paid by them on the Company’s behalf. However, at the termination of the primary Follow-on Offering and at the termination of the offering under the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan, the Advisor agreed to reimburse the Company to the extent that selling commissions, dealer manager fees and other offering costs incurred by the Company exceed 15% of the gross offering proceeds. Further, the Company is only liable to reimburse offering costs incurred by the Advisor up to an amount that, when combined with selling commissions, dealer manager fees and all other amounts spent by the Company on offering expenses, does not exceed 15% of the gross proceeds of the primary Follow-on Offering and the offering under the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan as of the date of reimbursement. Within 30 days after the end of the month in which the Company’s primary Follow-on Offering terminates, the Dealer Manager must reimburse the Company to the extent that the Company’s reimbursements to the Dealer Manager and payment of selling commissions and dealer manager fees cause total underwriting compensation for the Company’s primary Follow-on Offering to exceed 10% of the gross offering proceeds from the primary Follow-on Offering.
The Company ceased offering shares in the primary Follow-on Offering on March 31, 2014 and completed subscription processing procedures on April 30, 2014. Through April 30, 2014, the Company sold an aggregate of 2,051,925 shares of common stock in the Follow-on Offering for gross offering proceeds of $21.5 million, including 555,727 shares under the dividend reinvestment plan for proceeds of $5.7 million. Total offering expenses in the Follow-on Offering were $4.2 million, including $1.8 million in underwriting compensation (which includes selling commissions, dealer manager fees and any other items viewed as underwriting compensation by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority). After reimbursements from the Advisor and the Dealer Manager, the Company incurred offering expenses of $3.2 million in the Follow-on Offering (representing 15.0% of gross offering proceeds), which includes underwriting compensation of $1.6 million (representing 9.9% of primary Follow-on Offering proceeds). Including the reimbursements to the Company, the Dealer Manager incurred underwriting expenses of $0.2 million in the Follow-on Offering. In addition, because of the aggregate underwriting compensation incurred in the Follow-on Offering, on August 20, 2014, the Dealer Manager made a payment to the Company of $55,000.
Advisory Agreement - Asset Management Fee
Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the asset management fee payable by the Company to the Advisor with respect to investments in real estate is a monthly fee equal to the lesser of one-twelfth of (i) 1.0% of the amount paid or allocated to fund the acquisition, development, construction or improvement of the property (whether at or subsequent to acquisition), including acquisition expenses and budgeted capital improvement costs (regardless of the level of debt used to finance the investment), and (ii) 2.0% of the amount paid or allocated to fund the acquisition, development, construction or improvement of the property (whether at or subsequent to acquisition), including acquisition expenses and budgeted capital improvement costs, less any debt used to finance the investment.
The Advisory Agreement defers the Company’s obligation to pay asset management fees, without interest, accruing from February 1, 2013 through July 31, 2013. The Company will only be obligated to pay the Advisor such deferred amounts if and to the extent that the Company’s funds from operations, as such term is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts and interpreted by the Company, as adjusted for the effects of straight-line rents and acquisition costs and expenses (“AFFO”) for the immediately preceding month exceeds the amount of distributions declared for record dates of such prior month (an “AFFO Surplus”). The amount of any AFFO Surplus in a given month shall be applied first to pay to the Advisor asset management fees currently due with respect to such month (including any that would otherwise have been deferred for that month in accordance with the Advisory Agreement) and then to pay asset management fees previously deferred by the Advisor in accordance with the Advisory Agreement that remain unpaid. As of March 31, 2015, the Company had accrued and deferred payment of $1.5 million of asset management fees for February 2013 through July 2013 under the Advisory Agreement, as the Company believes the payment of this amount to the Advisor is probable. These fees will be reimbursed in accordance with the terms noted above.
In addition, the Advisory Agreement defers without interest under certain circumstances, the Company’s obligation to pay asset management fees accruing from August 1, 2013. Specifically, the Advisory Agreement defers the Company’s obligation to pay an asset management fee for any month in which the Company’s modified funds from operations (“MFFO”) for such month, as such term is defined in the practice guideline issued by the Investment Program Association (“IPA”) in November 2010 and interpreted by the Company, excluding asset management fees, does not exceed the amount of distributions declared by the Company for record dates of that month. The Company remains obligated to pay the Advisor an asset management fee in any month in which the Company’s MFFO, excluding asset management fees, for such month exceeds the amount of distributions declared for the record dates of that month (such excess amount, an “MFFO Surplus”); however, any amount of such asset management fee in excess of the MFFO Surplus is also deferred under the Advisory Agreement. If the MFFO Surplus for any month exceeds the amount of the asset management fee payable for such month, any remaining MFFO Surplus will not be applied to pay asset management fee amounts previously deferred by the Advisor in accordance with the Advisory Agreement. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had accrued and deferred payment of $3.3 million of asset management fees for August 2013 through December 2014 under the Advisory Agreement, as the Company believes the payment of this amount to the Advisor is probable. These fees will be reimbursed in accordance with the terms noted above. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company incurred and deferred $0.7 million of asset management fees. However, the Company only recorded $0.3 million pursuant to the limitations in the Advisory Agreement as noted above. The Company did not accrue the remaining $0.4 million of these deferred asset management fees as it is uncertain whether any of these amounts will be paid in the future.
However, notwithstanding any of the foregoing, any and all deferred asset management fees shall be immediately due and payable at such time as the Company’s stockholders have received, together as a collective group, aggregate distributions (including distributions that may constitute a return of capital for federal income tax purposes) sufficient to provide (i) a return of their net invested capital, or the amount calculated by multiplying the total number of shares purchased by stockholders by the issue price, reduced by any amounts to repurchase shares pursuant to the Company’s share redemption plan, and (ii) an 8.0% per year cumulative, non-compounded return on such net invested capital (the “Stockholders’ 8% Return”). The Stockholders’ 8% Return is not based on the return provided to any individual stockholder. Accordingly, it is not necessary for each of the Company’s stockholders to have received any minimum return in order for the Advisor to receive deferred asset management fees.
Property Management — Account Services Agreements
In connection with its acquisitions of Poplar Creek, The Residence at Waterstone, Legacy Crescent Park, Legacy at Martin’s Point, Wesley Village, Millennium Apartment Homes, Legacy Grand at Concord and Lofts at the Highlands, the Company, through separate indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into separate Property Management — Account Services Agreements (each, a “Services Agreement”) with Legacy Partners Residential L.P. (“LPR”), an affiliate of the Sub-Advisor, pursuant to which LPR provides certain account maintenance and bookkeeping services related to these properties. Under each Services Agreement, the Company pays LPR a monthly fee in an amount equal to 1% of each property’s gross monthly collections. Unless otherwise provided for in an approved operating budget for a property, LPR is responsible for all expenses that it incurs in rendering services pursuant to each Services Agreement. Each Services Agreement has an initial term of one year and will continue thereafter on a month-to-month basis unless either party gives 30 days’ prior written notice of its desire to terminate the Services Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may terminate each Services Agreement at any time without cause upon 30 days’ prior written notice to LPR. The Company may also terminate each Services Agreement with cause immediately upon notice to LPR and the expiration of any applicable cure period. LPR may terminate each Services Agreement at any time without cause upon 90 days’ prior written notice to the Company.
Subsequent to March 31, 2015, the Company, through indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into property management agreements with Legacy Partners Residential, Inc. (“LPR Inc.”), an affiliate of the Sub-Advisor, pursuant to which LPR Inc. will provide, among other services, general property management services, including bookkeeping and accounting services, construction management services and budgeting and business plans for certain of the Company’s properties. See Note 8, “Subsequent Events.”

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Economic Dependency
The Company is dependent on the Advisor and the Sub-Advisor for certain services that are essential to the Company, including the identification, evaluation, negotiation, acquisition and disposition of investments; management of the daily operations of the Company’s investment portfolio; and other general and administrative responsibilities. In the event that these companies are unable to provide the respective services, the Company will be required to obtain such services from other sources.
Environmental
As an owner of real estate, the Company is subject to various environmental laws of federal, state and local governments. Although there can be no assurance, the Company is not aware of any environmental liability that could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. However, changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations, the uses and conditions of properties in the vicinity of the Company’s property, the activities of its tenants and other environmental conditions of which the Company is unaware with respect to the property could result in future environmental liabilities.
Legal Matters
From time to time, the Company may become party to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Management is not aware of any legal proceedings of which the outcome is probable or reasonably possible to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition, which would require accrual or disclosure of the contingency and possible range of loss. Additionally, the Company has not recorded any loss contingencies related to legal proceedings in which the potential loss is deemed to be remote.

The Company evaluates subsequent events up until the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.
Distributions Paid
On April 1, 2015, the Company paid distributions of $1.1 million, which related to distributions declared for daily record dates for each day in the period from March 1, 2015 through March 31, 2015. On May 1, 2015, the Company paid distributions of $1.1 million, which related to distributions declared for daily record dates for each day in the period from April 1, 2015 through April 30, 2015.
Distributions Declared
On May 12, 2015, the Company’s board of directors declared distributions based on daily record dates for the period from June 1, 2015 through June 31, 2015, which the Company expects to pay in July 2015, and distributions based on daily record dates for the period from July 1, 2015 through July 31, 2015, which the Company expects to pay in August 2015. Investors may choose to receive cash distributions or purchase additional shares through the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan.
Distributions for these periods will be calculated based on stockholders of record each day during these periods at a rate of $0.00178082 per share per day and equal a daily amount that, if paid each day for a 365-day period, would equal a 6.5% annualized rate based on the initial primary offering price for the Initial Offering of $10.00 per share or a 6.4% annualized rate based on the Company’s December 9, 2014 estimated value per share of $10.14.
Property Management Agreements
Subsequent to March 31, 2015, the Company, through indirect wholly owned subsidiaries (each, a “Property Owner”), entered into various property management agreements with LPR Inc. (each, a “Property Management Agreement”), pursuant to which LPR Inc. will provide, among other services, general property management services, including bookkeeping and accounting services, construction management services and budgeting and business plans for certain of the Company’s properties as follows:

Under the Property Management Agreements, each Property Owner will pay LPR Inc.: (i) a monthly fee based on a percentage (as described in the table above, the “Management Fee Percentage”) of the Gross Monthly Collections (as defined in each Property Management Agreement), (ii) a construction supervision fee equal to a percentage of construction costs to the extent overseen by LPR Inc. and as further detailed in each Property Management Agreement, (iii) a leasing commission at a rate to be agreed upon between the Property Owner and LPR Inc. for retail leases executed that were procured or obtained by LPR Inc. and (iv) certain reimbursements if included in an approved capital budget. Unless otherwise provided for in an approved operating budget, LPR Inc. will be responsible for all expenses that it incurs in rendering services pursuant to each Property Management Agreement. Each Property Management Agreement has an initial term of one year and will continue thereafter on a month-to-month basis unless either party gives 30 days’ prior written notice of its desire to terminate the Property Management Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Property Owner may terminate each Property Management Agreement at any time without cause upon 30 days’ prior written notice to LPR Inc. The Property Owner may also terminate the Property Management Agreement with cause immediately upon notice to LPR Inc. and the expiration of any applicable cure period. LPR Inc. may terminate each Property Management Agreement at any time without cause upon prior written notice to the Property Owner which, depending upon the terms of the particular Property Management Agreement, requires either 30, 60 or 90 days prior written notice. LPR Inc. may terminate the Property Management Agreement for cause if a Property Owner commits any material default under the Property Management Agreement and the default continues for a period of 30 days after notice from LPR Inc. to a Property Owner for a default or, in the case of Watertower Apartments and Lofts at the Highlands, if a monetary default continues for a period of 10 days after notice of such monetary default.
The properties were previously managed by third-party property management companies pursuant to the terms of individual property management agreements (together, the “Prior Management Agreements”). In addition, as stated in Note 6, “Related Party Transactions — Property Management — Account Services Agreements” herein, the Company, through the Property Owners, had entered into the Services Agreements with LPR with respect to The Residence at Waterstone, Lofts at the Highlands, Legacy at Martin’s Point, and Poplar Creek. The termination of services under the Prior Management Agreements and the Services Agreements (with respect to The Residence at Waterstone, Lofts at the Highlands, Legacy at Martin’s Point and Poplar Creek) were negotiated to coincide with the Effective Date of the respective Property Management Agreements. The Management Fee Percentage and any other fees and reimbursements payable to LPR Inc. by the Property Owner under each Property Management Agreement are approximately equal to the applicable percentage and other fees and reimbursements payable to the prior third party management companies and LPR by the Property Owner under the now-terminated Services Agreements and Prior Management Agreements.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)
3 Months Ended
Mar. 31, 2015
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation Policy
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and condensed notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the financial statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair and consistent presentation of the results for such periods. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, REIT Holdings, the Operating Partnership and their direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements and condensed notes thereto in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the Company’s prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have not changed the results of operations of prior periods.
Segments
The Company had invested in 11 apartment complexes as of March 31, 2015. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue and net income (loss) is from real estate, and therefore, the Company currently operates in one reportable segment.
Per Share Data
Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during such period. Diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock equals basic net income (loss) per share of common stock as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
Distributions declared per common share were $0.160 and $0.160 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Distributions declared per common share assumes each share was issued and outstanding each day during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, distributions were based on daily record dates and calculated at a rate of $0.00178082 per share per day. Each day during the periods from January 1, 2014 through March 31, 2014 and January 1, 2015 through March 31, 2015 was a record date for distributions.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Update
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU No. 2014-09”).  ASU No. 2014-09 requires an entity to recognize the revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.  ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes the revenue requirements in Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification.  ASU No. 2014-09 does not apply to lease contracts within the scope of Leases (Topic 840). ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and is to be applied retrospectively, with early application not permitted.  The Company is still evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2014-09 on its financial statements, but does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 to have a material impact on its financial statements. 
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU No. 2014-15”). The amendments in ASU No. 2014-15 require management to evaluate, for each annual and interim reporting period, whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or are available to be issued when applicable) and, if so, provide related disclosures. ASU No. 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2014-15 to have a significant impact on its financial statements.
In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20), Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items (“ASU No. 2015-01”). The amendments in ASU No. 2015-01 eliminate from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items.  Although the amendments will eliminate the requirements in Subtopic 225-20 for reporting entities to consider whether an underlying event or transaction is extraordinary, the presentation and disclosure guidance for items that are unusual in nature or occur infrequently will be retained and will be expanded to include items that are both unusual in nature and infrequently occurring. ASU No. 2015-01 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2015-01 to have a significant impact on its financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30), Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU No. 2015-03”).  The amendments in ASU No. 2015-03 require debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability, consistent with the presentation of a debt discount. ASU No. 2015-03 is limited to the presentation of debt issuance costs and does not affect the recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs.  ASU No. 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015 and is to be applied retrospectively.  Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued.  The adoption of ASU No. 2015-03 would change the presentation of debt issuance costs, as the Company presents debt issuance costs as deferred financing costs, prepaid expenses and other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

(1) See “Advisory Agreement – Asset Management Fees” below.
(2) Reimbursable operating expenses primarily consists of marketing research costs and property pursuit costs incurred by the Sub-Advisor. In addition, the Advisor may seek reimbursement for certain employee costs under the Advisory Agreement. Beginning July 1, 2010, the Company has reimbursed the Advisor for the Company’s allocable portion of the salaries, benefits and overhead of internal audit department personnel providing services to the Company. These amounts totaled $24,400 and $23,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and were the only employee costs reimbursable under the Advisory Agreement through March 31, 2015. The Company will not reimburse for employee costs in connection with services for which the Advisor earns acquisition or disposition fees (other than reimbursement of travel and communication expenses) or for the salaries or benefits the Advisor or its affiliates may pay to the Company’s executive officers.

[1] See “Advisory Agreement – Asset Management Fees” below.
[2] Reimbursable operating expenses primarily consists of marketing research costs and property pursuit costs incurred by the Sub-Advisor. In addition, the Advisor may seek reimbursement for certain employee costs under the Advisory Agreement. Beginning July 1, 2010, the Company has reimbursed the Advisor for the Company’s allocable portion of the salaries, benefits and overhead of internal audit department personnel providing services to the Company. These amounts totaled $24,400 and $23,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and were the only employee costs reimbursable under the Advisory Agreement through March 31, 2015. The Company will not reimburse for employee costs in connection with services for which the Advisor earns acquisition or disposition fees (other than reimbursement of travel and communication expenses) or for the salaries or benefits the Advisor or its affiliates may pay to the Company’s executive officers.
