Our REIT Framework
What is a REIT?
A Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) is a company that owns, operates, or finances income-generating real estate. Modeled after mutual funds, REITs provide all investors the chance to access diversified, liquid real estate portfolios.
Our REIT Qualification
To maintain our status as a REIT and avoid corporate-level income tax, we adhere to strict IRS rules under Section 856 of the Internal Revenue Code, including:
Income Tests: At least 95% of our income must come from passive sources like rents and mortgages.
Asset Tests: At least 75% of our assets must be real estate, cash, or U.S. Treasuries.
Distribution Requirement: We must distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to shareholders annually.
Ownership Structure: We must have a minimum of 100 shareholders and cannot be closely held.
Investment Risk Factors
Investing in The Community REIT involves various risks, including the potential loss of your entire investment. This investment is suitable only for investors who can afford such a loss.
Material Risk Factors:
Real Estate Market Risk: Property values can fluctuate and may decline due to local or national economic conditions.
Interest Rate Risk: Rising interest rates can increase borrowing costs and negatively impact property valuations.
Limited Liquidity: Our shares are not listed on a national securities exchange. There is no public trading market, and our share redemption program provides limited liquidity, is subject to restrictions, and may be suspended.
Economic & Geographic Risk: A recession or downturn in the specific markets where our properties are located can reduce rental income and occupancy rates.
Regulatory Risk: Changes to laws governing REITs or real estate could adversely affect our operations and profitability.
*For a complete discussion of risks, please see the "Risk Factors" section of our most recent Form 10-K.*
Our Distribution Policy
Policy Overview
A core component of our REIT structure is the distribution of income to our shareholders. We target quarterly distributions, but these are not guaranteed and will depend on our operating results, financial condition, and other factors.
Anticipated Distribution Schedule:
Declared: Quarterly, by our Board of Directors
Record Date: Typically the last day of the quarter
Payment Date: Approximately 30 days after the record date
Tax Treatment of Distributions
REIT distributions are generally taxed as ordinary income. However, a portion may be classified as a return of capital or qualify for lower capital gains rates. Shareholders will receive an annual Form 1099-DIV detailing the tax characteristics of their distributions for the year.
We recommend consulting with a tax advisor to understand the specific implications for your situation
