As of March 31, 2023, the Income Real Estate Fund’s asset-backed securities (ABS) and homebuilder bond portfolio’s cost-basis is $59.7M in invested principal and consists of eight issuers with a weighted average gross yield of 8.79%. (Note: Invested principal does not include any mark-ups or write-downs as a result of market changes).

The Income Real Estate Fund began purchasing ABS and homebuilder bonds at the end of last year, and we plan to continue to manage this portfolio on an ongoing basis as long as the current dynamic of pricing dislocation in credit markets exists. We believe this period of exceptionally attractive pricing is temporary and most acute in primary auctions. As before, we intend to focus on ABS pools issued by the most creditworthy borrowers and where the collateral (i.e., the portfolio rental homes) consists of high-quality homes in strong locations that we might otherwise be buyers and owners of in our other funds over the long-term.

See the table below for a detailed breakdown of the fund’s bond and ABS holdings as of March 31, 2023.*
