Total Income+ Real Estate Fund Announces First Year Total Returns of 13.59%

Bluerock’s Total Income+ Real Estate Fund (ticker: TIPRX, or “TI+”) announced results for its first year ended October 22, 2013, reporting a total return of 13.59%.*
TI+ is sub-advised by Mercer Investment Management, Inc., the world’s leading advisor to endowments, pension funds, sovereign wealth funds and family offices. Mercer has $6.6 trillion in assets under advisement, with more than 3,000 clients worldwide.
The fund invests the majority of its assets in private real estate portfolios normally available only to institutional investors who meet the multi-million dollar minimum investment criteria. It is currently invested in several leading institutional private equity real estate funds whose underlying real estate investments exceed, in aggregate, $26 billion. These funds include, among others, Blackrock Granite Property Fund, RREEF America REIT II, Clarion Lion Properties Fund and the Principal Enhanced Property Fund.
“Mercer’s research, the rigor of its selection process as well as its access to premier private equity real estate funds have made it possible for TI+ to invest on behalf of its investors in many of the country’s best performing and most exclusive funds,” said Ramin Kamfar, CEO of Bluerock Real Estate, L.L.C., the fund’s sponsor. At present, assets under management exceed $46 million. The minimum investment in the fund is $2,500 ($1,000 for retirement plans).
*TI+ began trading October 12, 2012 and closed the first year with a return of 13.59% (excluding sales load) and 7.03% (with the highest possible sales load). From inception through the last calendar quarter, ending March 31, 2014, returns for Class A shares ranged from 11.20% (excluding sales load) to 6.70% (including maximum sales load). One year fund performance, as of March 31, 2014, was 12.02% and 5.57% (with maximum load). We note that for our first year only, the advisor, and not the Fund, paid Fund expenses and waived management fees. The maximum sales charge for the fund is 5.75%, total annual operating expenses are 5.07% for its initial startup year, which were fully paid by the Sponsor.
Investors may be eligible for a reduction in sales charges.

Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The fund’s investment advisor has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and/or absorb expenses of the fund, at least until March 31, 2015, to ensure that the net annual fund operating expenses will not exceed 1.95%, subject to possible recoupment from the fund in future years.
