The purpose of this Supplement is to disclose:

 

   

the status of our initial public offering;

 

   

our quarterly report for the quarter ended March 31, 2008;

 

   

the declaration of dividends for the month of May; and

 

   

an update to our “Risk Factors” disclosure regarding the payment of dividends.

STATUS OF OUR INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

As of May 16, 2008, we had received and accepted subscriptions in our offering for 3,130,404 shares of common stock, or approximately $31,089,583, including shares issued under our dividend reinvestment plan.

QUARTERLY REPORT FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2008

On May 15, 2008, we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, a copy of which is attached to this Supplement as Exhibit A (without exhibits).

DECLARATION OF DIVIDENDS

On April 28, 2008, the dividend committee of the Paladin Realty Income Properties, Inc. board of directors declared dividends for the month of May 2008. The declared dividends were calculated based on stockholders of record each day during such month at a rate of $0.0016438 per day and were equal to a daily amount that, if paid each day for a 365-day period, would equal a 6.0% annualized rate based on a share price of $10.00. These dividends will be aggregated and paid in cash on June 16, 2008.

UPDATE TO RISK FACTOR

The “Risk Factors” section of the Prospectus is hereby supplemented by updating the following risk factor:

To date, cash flows from operations have been insufficient to fund both our operating expenses and our dividends paid to stockholders. We cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to pay dividends to stockholders at any particular level, if at all.

Because our cash flows from operations have been insufficient to pay both our operating expenses and the dividends that we have paid to our stockholders through the date of this prospectus, we cannot assure you that we will be able to continue paying dividends to our stockholders at our historical per-share amounts, or that the dividends we pay will not decrease or be eliminated in the future. From the date of inception through March 31, 2008, we have paid $1,614,371 in dividends to our stockholders and presently intend to continue paying dividends to our stockholders in the future. In order to pay dividends declared to date, we have used cash distributions from our investments, Paladin Advisors has paid expenses on our behalf, and Paladin Advisors has deferred the reimbursement of expense payments and its receipt of asset management and acquisition and advisory fees.

Specifically, we had incurred organization and offering costs of $6,603,829 as of March 31, 2008, which includes $5,677,310 paid by Paladin Advisors. In addition, Paladin Advisors and its affiliates has paid on our behalf $1,861,189 in general and administrative expenses.

Pursuant to the amendment to the advisory agreement between us and Paladin Advisors dated February 28, 2008, we will not reimburse Paladin Advisors for operating expenses that in the fiscal year then ended exceed the greater of (1) 2% of our average invested assets or (2) 25% of our net income, which we refer to as the “2%/25% Rule”, and Paladin Advisors must reimburse us quarterly for any amounts by which our operating expenses exceed the 2%/25% Rule in the previous four consecutive fiscal quarters. During the previous four fiscal quarters, our operating expenses, including expenses incurred on behalf of us by Paladin Advisors and its affiliates, exceeded the 2%/25% Rule by $120,830. In accordance with the advisory agreement, Paladin Advisors has deferred payment of such amount and it was recorded as a reduction in general and administrative expenses and asset management fees. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, we paid Paladin Advisors acquisition and advisory fees of $156,750 and asset management fees of $52,413. The acquisition fees were capitalized as part of the investments.

We may be obligated to pay these amounts to Paladin Advisors in the future, and the payment of these obligations may impact our ability to pay future dividends subject to the restraints imposed by the 2%/25% Rule. Paladin Advisors is not obligated to either pay expenses on our behalf or defer reimbursements of expense payments or fees in future periods. At such time as Paladin Advisors requires us to reimburse such expense payments or pay those fees, or if Paladin Advisors were to cease paying expenses on our behalf or deferring reimbursement of expense payments or fees, our ability to pay dividends to our stockholders could be adversely affected, and we may be unable to pay dividends to our stockholders, or such dividends could decrease significantly.

Our directors will determine the amount and timing of future cash dividends to our stockholders based on many factors, including the amount of funds available for distribution (including whether Paladin Advisors continues to pay expenses and/or defer reimbursement of expense payments or fees), our financial condition, requirements we must meet to qualify to be taxed as a REIT, the desirability of reinvesting or distributing such funds, capital expenditures and reserve requirements and general operational requirements. The amount of funds available for distribution will be affected by our ability to identify and make real estate or real estate related investments as offering proceeds become available, the returns on those real estate or real estate related investments we make and our operating expense levels, as well as many other variables. We cannot predict how long it may take to identify additional real property investments or real estate related investments, to raise sufficient proceeds or to make real property investments or real estate related investments. We likewise cannot predict whether we will generate sufficient cash flow to continue to pay dividends at historical levels or at all.

In addition, differences in timing between the recognition of income and the related cash receipts or the effect of required debt amortization payments could require us to borrow money, use proceeds from the issuance of securities or sell assets to pay out enough of our taxable income to satisfy the requirement that we distribute at least 90% of our taxable income, excluding capital gains and with certain adjustments, in order to qualify as a REIT.

Paladin Realty Income Properties, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2008 and 2007 (unaudited)

1. Organization

Paladin Realty Income Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Paladin REIT”), was formed on October 31, 2003 and intends to provide investors the potential for income through investment in a diversified portfolio of real estate properties, focusing primarily on investments that produce current income. Paladin REIT owns interests in six income-producing properties as of March 31, 2008, consisting of 801 Fiber Optic Drive, a 56,336 square foot distribution facility built in 2001 that is 100% leased to FedEx Ground Package System, Inc., a subsidiary of FedEx Corporation; Champion Farms Apartments, a 264-unit luxury multifamily rental community built in 2000; Fieldstone Apartments, a 266-unit multifamily community property built in 2001; Pinehurst Apartment Homes, a 146-unit multifamily rental community built in two phases in 1986 and 1988; Pheasant Run Apartments, a 160-unit multifamily rental community built in 1985; and Retreat Apartments, a 342-unit multifamily rental community built in 1984. Paladin REIT intends to invest in a variety of real estate product types, including apartments, office buildings, industrial buildings, shopping centers and hotels. Paladin REIT may also make real estate related investments, which include first mortgages or second mortgages, mezzanine loans or preferred equity investments relating to the same types of properties that Paladin REIT may acquire directly. Paladin REIT elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2006. Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, the business of Paladin REIT is managed by Paladin Realty Advisors, LLC (“Paladin Advisors”), an affiliate of Paladin REIT, pursuant to an advisory agreement dated February 28, 2005, as amended February 28, 2008 (the “Advisory Agreement”). Paladin Advisors supervises and manages the day-to-day operations of Paladin REIT and selects the real estate and real estate related investments it acquires, subject to oversight by the board of directors of Paladin REIT. Paladin Advisors also provides marketing, sales and client services on behalf of Paladin REIT.

On February 23, 2005, Paladin REIT’s initial public offering (the “Offering”) was declared effective and Paladin REIT commenced its offering efforts. As of March 31, 2008 Paladin REIT had received proceeds of $29,499,674 for 2,958,939 shares.

Paladin REIT owns its assets and conducts its operations through Paladin Realty Income Properties, L.P., its operating partnership (“Paladin OP”). As of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, Paladin Advisors held a 0.7% and 0.8% limited partnership interest, respectively, and Paladin REIT held a 99.3% and 99.2% general partnership interest, respectively, in Paladin OP. Management expects Paladin REIT’s ownership percentage in Paladin OP to continue to increase as Paladin REIT invests net proceeds from the Offering in Paladin OP. Paladin REIT had no operations prior to November 2, 2005.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Paladin REIT and its wholly-owned and controlled entities (collectively, the “Company”). In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN 46R”), the Company also consolidates any variable interest entities (“VIEs”) of which it is the primary beneficiary as defined. When the Company does not have a controlling interest in an entity but exerts a significant influence over the entity, the Company applies the equity method of accounting. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Real Estate and Depreciation

Real estate is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The Company allocates the cost of newly acquired properties between net tangible and identifiable intangible assets. The primary intangible asset associated with an apartment property acquisition is the value of the existing lease agreements. When allocating cost to an acquired property, the Company allocates costs to the estimated value of the land, building and fixtures assuming the property is vacant and to the estimated intangible value of the existing lease agreements. The Company estimates the intangible value of the lease agreements by determining the lost revenue associated with a hypothetical lease-up. The Company depreciates the buildings and fixtures based on the expected useful life of the asset, which

ranges from 27 to 45 years for the buildings and improvements and from five to seven years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. The intangible value of the lease agreements is amortized over the average remaining life of the existing leases, which ranges from three to 24 months. This amortization is included in depreciation and amortization expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Improvements and betterments are capitalized when they extend the useful life of the asset. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

The Company reviews long-lived assets and related identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances occur, recoverability of the asset to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to future net cash flows, undiscounted and without interest, expected to be generated by the asset. If the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest) is less than the Company’s carrying amount for the asset, an impairment loss is recognized based upon the asset’s fair value.

Investments

The Company follows the provisions of FIN 46R and the Company is required to evaluate whether it has a controlling financial interest in an entity through means other than voting rights. If the Company determines that the joint venture is a VIE and that the Company is the “primary beneficiary” as defined in FIN 46R, it will account for such investment as if it were a consolidated subsidiary. For a joint venture investment which is not a VIE or in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, the Company considers other relevant accounting literature including Accounting Principles Board Opinion 18— “The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock,” Statement of Position (“SOP”) 78-9— “Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Ventures,” and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue (“EITF”) 04-5 to determine the method of accounting for each of the partially-owned entities. In accordance with the above pronouncements, the Company determines whether it should consolidate the entity or account for it on the equity method or cost method. Factors considered in determining whether or not the Company exercises control include substantive participating rights of partners on significant business decisions, including dispositions and acquisitions of assets, financing and operating and capital budgets, board and management representatives and authority and other contractual rights of the Company’s partners. To the extent that the Company is deemed to control these entities, these entities will be consolidated.

As of March 31, 2008, Paladin OP held a 70% ownership interest in Springhurst Housing Partners, LLC (“Springhurst”), a 65% ownership interest in Glenwood Housing Partners I, LLC (“Glenwood”), a 97.5% ownership interest in KC Pinehurst Associates, LLC (“KC Pinehurst”), a 97.5% ownership interest in KC Pheasant Associates, LLC (“KC Pheasant”), a 97.5% interest in KC Retreat Associates, LLC (“KC Retreat”) and a 74% ownership interest in PRIP 801, LLC as described in Note 3. Paladin REIT has determined that Paladin OP and its investees are not VIEs. Paladin REIT consolidates Paladin OP, Springhurst, Glenwood, KC Pinehurst, KC Pheasant and KC Retreat, as it is the majority owner and exercises control over all significant decisions. Paladin REIT accounts for its investment in PRIP 801, LLC under the equity method of accounting, as the other member has substantive participating rights as defined in EITF 04-5 and SOP 78-9. This investment is recorded initially at cost, and subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings or losses and cash contributions and distributions.

On a periodic basis the Company will evaluate whether there are any indicators that the value of its investments in partially-owned entities are impaired. An investment is impaired if the Company’s estimate of the value of the investment is less than the carrying amount. The ultimate realization of the Company’s investment in partially-owned entities is dependent on a number of factors including the performance of that entity and market conditions. If the Company determines that a decline in the value of a partially-owned entity is other than temporary, then the Company would record an impairment charge.

Deferred Loan Costs

Loan costs are capitalized and amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the related loan. The amortization is recorded as a component of interest expense.

Revenue Recognition

The Company primarily leases residential apartments to tenants under non-cancellable operating leases with terms ranging from three to 24 months. Rental income related to leases is recognized in the period earned over the lease term in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 13, “Accounting for Leases”.

Other income consists of various tenant-related charges and is recognized as revenue in the period in which the applicable charge is incurred.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable is included in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. Bad debts are recorded under the specific identification method, whereby, uncollectible receivables are directly written off when identified.

Use of Estimates

The presentation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment, valuation allowances for receivables, and deferred income tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents represent highly liquid investments with maturities at the date of purchase of three months or less.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash includes subscription proceeds that are held in escrow until investors are admitted as stockholders. Upon acceptance of stockholders, shares of stock are issued, and we receive the subscription proceeds. Restricted cash included $207,503 and $210,210 as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively, for proceeds that were held in escrow. At March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, restricted cash also included $1,157,068 and $567,992 held in restricted accounts for tenant improvements, repairs, property taxes and insurance as required by lenders. At March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, restricted cash also included $550,000 held in a restricted account as collateral for a letter of credit as described in Note 3.

Income Taxes

The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2006, under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Company believes it operates in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to its shareholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income taxes on its taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state or local taxes on its income and property or net worth and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. No provision has been made for federal income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” FIN 48 increases the relevancy and comparability of financial reporting by clarifying the way companies account for uncertainty in measuring income taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the company has taken or

expects to take on a tax return. This Interpretation only allows a favorable tax position to be included in the calculation of tax liabilities and expenses if a company concludes that it is more likely than not that its adopted tax position will be sustained. The Company adopted FIN 48 as required effective January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. All of the Company’s tax years are subject to examination by tax jurisdictions.

In accordance with FIN 48, the Company has assessed its tax positions for all open tax years as of January 1, 2007 and concluded that there were no material FIN 48 uncertainties to be recognized. The Company’s accounting policy with respect to interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties is to classify these amounts as provision for income taxes. The Company has not recognized any interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007.

Organization and Offering Costs

Organization costs are expensed as incurred and offering costs are charged to stockholders’ equity. These costs are subject to a 3% limitation of the gross proceeds from the Offering pursuant to the Company’s Advisory Agreement with Paladin Advisors, as described in Note 6.

Expense Reimbursement

Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, Paladin Advisors is entitled to reimbursement of actual expenses incurred for administrative and other services provided to the Company by Paladin Advisors and its affiliates, including reimbursement of personnel costs and overhead for which they do not otherwise receive a fee. The Company will not reimburse Paladin Advisors for operating expenses that in the fiscal year then ended exceed the greater of (1) 2% of the average invested assets of Paladin REIT or (2) 25% of the net income as described below of the Company (the “2%/25% Rule”), and Paladin Advisors must reimburse Paladin REIT quarterly for any amounts by which the operating expenses of Paladin REIT exceeds the 2%/25% Rule in the previous four consecutive fiscal quarters (the “Expense Period”).

The average invested assets of the Company for any period are equal to the average book value of the Company’s assets invested in equity interests in, and loans secured by, real estate before reserves for depreciation or bad debts or other similar non-cash reserves computed by taking the average of such values at the end of each month during the period. The net income of the Company for any period is equal to the Company’s total revenue less total expenses other than additions to reserves for depreciation, bad debts or other similar non-cash reserves for such period. Operating expenses include all expenses incurred by the Company under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (including the asset management fee), but excluding organization and offering expenses, interest payments, taxes, non-cash expenditures such as depreciation, amortization and bad debt reserves, the subordinated disposition fee, acquisition and advisory fees and expenses and distributions pursuant to Paladin Advisors’ subordinated participation interest in Paladin OP.

Paladin Advisors must reimburse the excess expenses to the Company within 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter unless the independent directors determine that the excess expenses were justified based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which they deem sufficient. Within 60 days after the end of any Expense Period for which total operating expenses exceed the 2%/25% Rule, Paladin REIT will send its stockholders a written disclosure, together with an explanation of the factors the independent directors considered in arriving at the conclusion that the excess expenses were justified. However, at Paladin Advisors’ option, Paladin Advisors or its affiliate, as applicable may defer receipt of any portion of the asset management fee or reimbursement of expenses and elect to receive such payments, without interest, in any subsequent fiscal year that Paladin Advisors designates.

Per Share Data

The Company presents both basic and diluted loss per share, or EPS. Basic EPS excludes potentially dilutive securities and is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised, where such exercise would result in a lower EPS amount. The diluted EPS would include weighted average unvested restricted shares issued to independent directors totaling 4,000 and 8,000 shares for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, but are excluded from the calculation as their effect would be antidilutive.

Unaccepted Subscriptions for Common Shares

Unaccepted subscriptions for common shares include proceeds related to subscriptions that were held in escrow but had not been accepted by the Company as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, other assets, dividends payable and other liabilities approximate the carrying values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. As of March 31, 2008, the mortgage loans payable had an estimated fair value of approximately $58.3 million compared to the carrying value of $57.5 million. As of December 31, 2007, the mortgage loans payable had an estimated fair value of approximately $44.1 million compared to the carrying value of $43.9 million. To determine fair value, the fixed rate debt is discounted at a rate based on an estimate of current lending rates as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007.

Stock-based Compensation

Under the terms of the Independent Director Incentive Stock Plan, the Company granted 3,000 shares at fair value of $10 of restricted common stock to each of the four independent directors on March 21, 2006. One-third of the restricted common stock will vest on each of the first three anniversaries of December 2, 2005, the date the Company reached its minimum offering. There are 60,000 shares in total authorized under the Independent Director Incentive Stock Plan, which expires on February 28, 2015.

The Company records compensation expense for restricted common stock as required by SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment, revised 2004” (“SFAS No. 123(R)”). Compensation expense for common stock unvested at March 21, 2006 was based on the grant date fair value of the common shares calculated under SFAS No. 123(R) and will be recognized using the straightline attribution method, assuming no forfeitures. For the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company recorded $9,945 and $9,862, respectively, of related compensation expense which amounts are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Total unamortized compensation costs on nonvested shares on March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 is $26,877 and $36,822, respectively, and at March 31, 2008 the remaining weighted average period over which it is expected to be recognized is approximately eight months.

As of March 31, 2008, 8,000 shares have vested. There are 4,000 shares unvested and there have been no forfeitures as of March 31, 2008. As of December 31, 2007 8,000 shares have vested. There were 4,000 shares unvested and there were no forfeitures as of December 31, 2007.

Reportable Segments

FASB SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of Enterprise and Related Information,” establishes standards for reporting financial and descriptive information about an enterprise’s reportable segments. Management has determined that the Company has one reportable segment, which owns interests in real estate investments.

Environmental Matters

Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations, an owner of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, on, in or under such property as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances. These liabilities may include government fines and penalties and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of or disposal of such substances. As of March 31, 2008, the Company is not aware of any environmental matter that could have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior year consolidated financial statements have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands the related disclosure requirements. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and for interim periods within those years. The Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”. The fair value option established by SFAS No. 159 permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity will report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings (or another performance indicator if the business entity does not report earnings) at each subsequent reporting date. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and for interim periods within those years. The Company has adopted this SFAS No. 159 effective January 1, 2008 and has elected not to measure any of our current eligible financial asset or liabilities at fair value upon adoption. However, the Company does reserve the right to elect to measure future eligible financial assets or liabilities at fair value.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations” which requires most identifiable assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interests and goodwill acquired in a business combination to be recorded at full fair value. Under SFAS No. 141R, all business combinations will be accounted for by applying the acquisition method. SFAS No. 141R is effective for the periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier application is prohibited and will be applied to business combinations occurring after the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 141R on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51”, which will require noncontrolling interests (currently referred to as minority interest) to be treated as a separate component of equity, not as a liability or other item outside of permanent equity. The Statement applies to the accounting for noncontrolling interests and transactions with noncontrolling interest holders in consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 160 is effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier application is prohibited. SFAS No. 160 will be applied prospectively to all noncontrolling interests, including any that arose before the effective date except that comparative period information must be recast to classify noncontrolling interests in equity, attributed net income and other comprehensive income to noncontrolling interests, and provide other disclosures required by SFAS No. 160. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 160 on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In September 2007, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue 07-6, “Accounting for the Sale of Real Estate Subject to the Requirements of FASB Statement No. 66 When the Agreement Includes a Buy-Sell Clause,” which clarifies that a buy-sell clause, in and of itself, does not constitute a prohibited form of continuing involvement that would preclude partial sale treatment under Statement 66. EITF 07-6 applies prospectively to new arrangements entered into in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The Company does not expect the adoption of EITF 07-6 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

3. Investments

Investments in Real Estate

On January 11, 2008, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Paladin OP, PRIP 11128, LLC purchased a 97.5% interest in KC Retreat, a joint venture between PRIP 11128, LLC, JTL Holdings, LLC and JTL Asset Management, Inc., which owns Retreat Apartment. Retreat Apartment is a 342-unit multifamily rental community built in 1984. The apartment complex is located in Shawnee, Missouri. The total purchase price of Retreat Apartments was $15.9 million, plus closing costs of $200,000 and approximately $350,000 for capital expenditures. KC Retreat secured a mortgage loan of $13.6 million to finance the acquisition. Paladin OP’s investment in KC Retreat was $2,850,000. The Company also accrued an acquisition fee payable to Paladin Advisors of $156,750 in connection with the acquisition of Retreat Apartments.

The operating agreement for KC Retreat provides that the Company will receive priority in distributions of operating cash flow until it has received at least 12.0% on its invested equity, after which its co-venture partners will receive distributions until they have reached the same 12.0% on their invested equity. Thereafter, operating cash flow will be distributed 50% to the Company and 50% to its co-venture partners. The operating agreement for KC Retreat also provides for priority distributions of sale proceeds, if any. First, the Company will receive a priority distribution equal to a return of its invested capital plus an amount that when added to all distributions of cash flow made to the Company during the life of its investment, is sufficient to generate a 12.0% internal rate of return on its invested capital. Second, the Company’s co-venture partners will receive distributions that when added to all distributions of cash flow made to its co-venture partners during the life of their investment, is sufficient to generate a 12.0% internal rate of return on their invested capital. Third, any further sale proceeds will be distributed 50% to the Company and 50% to its co-venture partners. In addition, the Company has the right and option to purchase, after January 11, 2009, its co-venture partners’ interest in KC Retreat for a purchase price set forth in the operating agreement.

In addition, Paladin OP holds a 70% ownership interest in Springhurst, which owns Champion Farms Apartments. Champion Farms Apartments is a 264-unit luxury multifamily rental community built in 2000.

In connection with Paladin OP’s acquisition of its interest in Springhurst, Paladin OP may be required to purchase additional ownership units in Springhurst from Buckingham Springhurst, LLC upon the occurrence of certain events after the first anniversary of the acquisition. If such events occur, Buckingham Springhurst, LLC would be able to put to Paladin OP up to an additional 20% ownership in Springhurst at a cost of $67,500 per 1% of ownership interest. As of March 31, 2008, Paladin OP has not been required to purchase additional interests in Springhurst by Buckingham Springhurst, LLC.

In connection with Paladin OP’s acquisition of its interest in Glenwood, Paladin OP may be required to purchase additional ownership units in Glenwood from Shiloh Crossing Partners II, LLC upon the occurrence of certain events after the first anniversary of the acquisition. If such events occur, Shiloh Crossing Partners II, LLC would be able to put to Paladin OP up to an additional 25% ownership in Glenwood at a cost of $62,500 per 1% of ownership interest. As of March 31, 2008, Paladin OP has not been required to purchase additional interests in Glenwood by Shiloh Crossing Partners II, LLC.

Also in connection with Paladin OP’s acquisition of its interest in Glenwood, a wholly owned subsidiary of Paladin OP, PRIP 10637, LLC entered into a Phase II Option Agreement (“Option Agreement”) with Glenwood Housing Partners II, LLC, an Indiana limited liability company (“Glenwood II”). Glenwood II owns a parcel of land adjacent to Fieldstone Apartments upon which it may construct 88 apartment units with an aggregate of 97,640 square feet of rentable space to be leased, managed and operated as Phase II of the Fieldstone Apartments.

more than 90% beneficial ownership interest in Glenwood II or any affiliated entity that owns the parcel and developments thereon. PRIP 10637 may exercise the option at any time after the completion of development and stabilization of the project. If exercised, the purchase price for the option interest will be determined by a formula that utilizes market-rate variables as of that future date.

The operating agreements for both Springhurst and Glenwood provide that the Company will receive priority in distributions of operating cash flow until it has received at least 8.25% on its invested equity, after which its co-venture partners will receive distributions until they have reached the same 8.25% on their invested equity. Thereafter, operating cash flow will be distributed 50% to the Company and 50% to its co-venture partners.

Thereafter, operating cash flow will be distributed 75% to the Company and 25% to its co-venture partners. The operating agreements for both KC Pinehurst and KC Pheasant also provide for priority distributions of sale proceeds, if any. First, the Company will receive a priority distribution equal to a return of its invested capital plus an amount that when added to all distributions of cash flow made to the Company during the life of its investment, is sufficient to generate a 12.0% internal rate of return on its invested capital. Second, the Company’s co-venture partners will receive distributions that when added to all distributions of cash flow made to its co-venture partners during the life of their investment, is sufficient to generate a 12.0% internal rate of return on their invested capital.

The mortgage loan requires payments of interest only at a fixed interest rate of 5.498% through November 1, 2010, the anticipated repayment date. If the mortgage loan is not repaid or refinanced as of the anticipated repayment date, interest will accrue at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (a) 8.498% and (b) the treasury rate plus three percentage points. Pursuant to the terms of a cash management agreement, the borrower was required to post a $550,000 letter of credit by December 1, 2007, or the lender would sweep and retain all cash flow from 801 Fiber Optic Drive. On, November 29, 2007 Paladin OP posted a $550,000 irrevocable standby letter of credit with Wachovia Bank, N.A. secured by $550,000 cash deposited in a certificate of deposit with Wachovia Bank, N.A. If the borrower does not pay off the loan on November 1, 2010, the lender can apply the letter of credit (or retained cash flow) and will continue to sweep all cash flow to repay the loan. In the event of a default under the loan documents, the cash management agreement further provides that the lender may sweep cash from all accounts maintained by the borrower with the lender (including rent accounts from the property). The estimated principal balance to be due at the anticipated repayment date is $1,950,000.

In general, the mortgage loan may not be prepaid until January 31, 2008 and as of March 31, 2008 has not been prepaid. In general, no sale, encumbrance or other transfer of an interest in the property is permitted without the lender’s prior written consent. Alex Gilbert, the managing member of 801 FO, LLC has guaranteed the non-recourse standard loan carve outs, and in exchange for his guarantee, Paladin Realty has agreed to fully indemnify Mr. Gilbert against any defaults caused by the borrower through standard default provisions such as bankruptcy, fraud, misapplication of proceeds and certain environmental violations. The loan agreement obligation is secured by a mortgage on the property and an assignment of rents and personal property. In addition PRIP 801, LLC has entered into an environmental and hazardous substance indemnification agreement.

The agreements contain various covenants, which among other things, limit the ability of the borrowers to incur indebtedness, engage in certain business activities, enter into material leases on the property and transfer its interest in the property among others. The loan agreements also contain customary events of default, including, without limitation, payment defaults, cross-defaults to certain other agreements with respect to the property and bankruptcy-related defaults. In the event of a default, the loan may be accelerated and all amounts due under the loan will become immediately due and payable.

Our charter provides that our independent directors must approve any borrowing in excess of 65% of our aggregate asset value and the justification for such excess borrowing must be disclosed to our stockholders in our next quarterly report. On March 25, 2008, we amended our bylaws to include a provision that requires our board of directors, in applying and calculating the 65% leverage limitation, to further ensure that the maximum amount of our aggregate borrowings, in the absence of a satisfactory showing that a higher level of borrowing is appropriate, does not exceed 300% of our net assets. The provision further mandates that any excess in borrowing over such 300% leverage limitation shall be approved by a majority of our independent directors and disclosed to shareholders in our next quarterly report, along with a justification for such excess.

5. Shareholders’ Equity

Preferred Shares

Paladin REIT’s board of directors, through Paladin REIT’s charter, has the authority to authorize the issuance of 100,000,000 preferred shares in one or more classes or series. The rights and terms of such preferred shares will be determined by the board of directors. However, the voting rights of the preferred shares sold in a private offering shall not exceed voting rights which bear the same relationship to the voting rights of common shares as the consideration paid for each such preferred share bears to the book value of each outstanding common share. As of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, Paladin REIT had not issued any preferred shares.

Dividends

The board of directors has declared dividends since December 2005 in the amount of $0.0016438 per share per day, representing an annualized rate of return of 6.0% on an investment of $10.00 per share if paid each day over a 365-day period. Dividends have been declared on a monthly basis to stockholders of record as the close of business each day during the applicable month and paid generally on the 15th day of the following month, unless the 15th day of the month is not a business day. Dividends to shareholders are characterized for federal income tax purposes as ordinary income, capital gains, non-taxable return of capital or a combination of the three. Dividends that exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits (calculated for tax purposes) constitute a return of capital for tax purposes rather than a dividend and reduce the shareholders’ basis in the common shares. All of our dividends declared and paid to date constitute a return of capital.

6. Related Party Transactions

Following receipt of the minimum offering on December 2, 2005, such costs only become a liability of the Company to the extent they do not exceed 3.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company paid $306,138 of offering costs. Due to the application of the 3% limitation, the Company was only able to recognize $109,178 as a charge to shareholders’ equity with the additional amount of $196,960 recorded as due from affiliate. On March 28, 2008 Paladin Advisors reimbursed the Company $1,226,186. Paladin Advisors is required to reimburse the balance of $38,922 within 60 days after the end of the Offering.

Overview

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (the “MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand our operations and our present business environment. The MD&A is provided as a supplement to—and should be read in conjunction with—our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto contained in Item 1 of Part I of this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, as a result of a number of factors, including those factors set forth in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, in Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2008 and other factors presented throughout this report.

We are a Maryland corporation formed on October 31, 2003 that intends to invest in a diversified portfolio of real estate properties, focusing primarily on properties that produce current income. As of March 31, 2008, we owned interests in six income-producing properties:

 

   

801 Fiber Optic Drive, a 56,336 square foot distribution facility built in 2001 that is leased to FedEx Ground Package System, Inc., a subsidiary of FedEx Corporation;

 

   

Champion Farms Apartments, a 264-unit luxury multifamily rental community built in 2000;

 

   

Fieldstone Apartments, a 266-unit multifamily community property built in 2001;

 

   

Pinehurst Apartment Homes, a 146-unit recently renovated multifamily community built in two phases in 1986 and 1988;

 

   

Pheasant Run Apartments, a 160-unit multifamily community built in 1985 and renovated in 2003 and 2004; and

 

   

The Retreat of Shawnee, a 342-unit multifamily community built in 1984 and renovated in 2004 and 2005.

On April 7, 2008, we completed the acquisition of our interest in our seventh property, Hilltop Village Apartments, a 124-unit multifamily community built in 1986.

We intend to invest in a variety of real estate product types, including apartments, office buildings, industrial buildings, shopping centers and hotels. In addition, we may make or acquire mortgage loans secured by, or preferred equity investments in entities that own, the same types of properties that we may acquire directly, which we refer to collectively as real estate related investments. We own our assets and conduct our operations through Paladin Realty Income Properties, L.P., our operating partnership, which we refer to as “Paladin OP.”

Table of Contents

In our prospectus dated April 6, 2007, as subsequently supplemented and amended, we disclosed that our Offering would expire on or before February 23, 2008, which is the three-year anniversary of the commencement of that offering. However, we have determined to extend our Offering beyond February 23, 2008, as permitted pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Rule 415, as promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Specifically, we are extending the term of our Offering until the earlier to occur of: (i) the date upon which our new registration statement on Form S-11, originally filed on October 23, 2007, and subsequently amended, becomes effective, and (ii) August 21, 2008, which is the date that is 180 days after February 23, 2008.

We elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2006, under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. We believe we operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to our shareholders equal at least the amount of our REIT taxable income as defined under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income taxes on our taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates. We may also be subject to certain state or local income taxes, or franchise taxes.

Recent Acquisitions

Retreat of Shawnee

On January 11, 2008, KC Retreat Associates, LLC, a joint venture in which we own a 97.5% interest, which we refer to as KC Retreat, entered into an agreement with an unaffiliated third party, The Retreat, LLC, to purchase the Retreat of Shawnee located at 11128 West 76th Terrace in Shawnee, Kansas, or the Retreat Apartments. JTL Holdings, LLC and JTL Asset Management, Inc., both affiliates of JTL Properties, a Kansas City-based real estate investment and management company, own the remaining 2.5% interest in KC Retreat. JTL Properties is unaffiliated with us and our affiliates, except that affiliates of JTL Properties participate in other joint ventures with us relating to Pheasant Run Apartments, Pinehurst Apartment Homes and Hilltop Apartments.

On January 14, 2008, KC Retreat acquired the Retreat Apartments for a total purchase price of $15.9 million. The total acquisition cost for our interest in KC Retreat was approximately $2.85 million, including approximately $350,000 for capital expenditures and $200,000 in closing costs. We accrued an acquisition fee payable to Paladin Advisors pursuant to the terms of the advisory agreement of $156,750 in connection with our investment in KC Retreat. We will also pay Paladin Advisors an annual asset management fee of $34,200 pursuant to the terms of the advisory agreement.

In connection with the acquisition of the Retreat Apartments, KC Retreat entered into a mortgage loan with the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, or Freddie Mac, to obtain a loan in the amount of $13,600,000 as evidenced by a Multifamily Note dated January 11, 2008, in favor of NorthMarq Capital, Inc. The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.58% through February 1, 2018. Assuming no event of default occurs before the initial maturity date, the loan will automatically be extended until February 1, 2019 with an adjustable interest rate based on the Freddie Mac Reference Bill Index. The outstanding balance on the loan at the time of maturity will be approximately $12,650,000. The loan is prepayable at any time prior to its maturity, subject to a prepayment penalty equal to the greater of (1) 1.0% of the outstanding balance or (2) an amount calculated pursuant to a standard formula based on the remaining life of the loan and then-current interest rates. The loan is secured by a multifamily mortgage on the property pursuant to a Multifamily Deed of Trust, Assignment of Rents and Security Agreement. In addition, the loan is guaranteed by James E. Lippert, but only upon the occurrence of certain limited events. As a condition to the loan, KC Retreat was required to fund an escrow account with approximately $430,000 for the payment of approximately $343,000 to make specified repairs and improvements to the Retreat Apartments pursuant to a Repair Escrow Agreement dated January 11, 2008, or the Repair Escrow Agreement.

On January 11, 2008, our subsidiary, PRIP 11128, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, entered into an operating agreement with JTL Holdings, LLC and JTL Asset Management, Inc., affiliates of JTL Properties, for KC Retreat. The operating agreement provides that we will receive priority in distributions of operating cash flow until we have received at least 12.0% on our invested equity, after which our co-venture partners will receive distributions until they have reached the same 12.0% on their invested equity. Thereafter, operating cash flow will be distributed 50% to us and 50% to our co-venture partners.

The operating agreement also provides for priority distributions of sale proceeds, if any. First, we will receive a priority distribution equal to a return of our invested capital plus an amount that when added to all distributions of cash flow made to us during the life of our investment, is sufficient to generate a 12.0% internal rate of return on our invested capital. Second, our co-venture partners will receive distributions that when added to all distributions of cash flow made to our co-venture partners during the life of their investment, is sufficient to generate a 12.0% internal rate of return on their invested capital. Third, any further sale proceeds will be distributed 50% to us and 50% to our co-venture partners.

Hilltop Village Apartments

On April 7, 2008, our subsidiary, PRIP 6700, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or PRIP 6700, entered into a contribution agreement with JTL Properties, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company, and Park Hill Partners I, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company, which we refer to as Park Hill Partners, whereby PRIP 6700 acquired a 49.0% interest in Park Hill Partners. Park Hill Partners owns the Hilltop Village Apartments located at 8601 Newton Avenue, Kansas City, Missouri, which we refer to as the Hilltop Apartments. JTL Properties, a Kansas City-based real estate investment and management company, owns the remaining 51.0% interest in Park Hill Partners. JTL Properties is unaffiliated with us and our affiliates, except that affiliates of JTL Properties participate in other joint ventures with us relating to Pheasant Run Apartments, Pinehurst Apartment Homes and the Retreat Apartments.

The total acquisition cost for PRIP 6700’s interest in Park Hill Partners was $1,050,000, including approximately $50,000 for capital expenditures reserve and $50,000 for closing costs and working capital. The total value of Hilltop Apartments is approximately $5,200,000, plus transaction costs, which includes the existing mortgage in the amount of $4,250,000.

In connection with the acquisition of our interest in Park Hill Partners, our investment is subject to the existing mortgage loan with NorthMarq Capital, Inc. in an amount of $4,250,000. The mortgage loan provides for a fixed rate of 5.81% through December 1, 2017. The outstanding balance on the loan at the time of maturity will be approximately $3,965,000. The loan is prepayable at any time prior to its maturity, subject to a prepayment penalty equal to the greater of (1) 1.0% of the outstanding balance or (2) an amount calculated pursuant to a standard formula based on the remaining life of the loan and then-current interest rates. The mortgage loan is secured by a mortgage on the property. In addition, the loan is guaranteed by James E. Lippert, but only upon the occurrence of certain limited events.

On April 7, 2008, PRIP 6700 entered into an amended and restated operating agreement with JTL Properties for Park Hill Partners. The amended and restated operating agreement provides that we will receive priority in distributions of operating cash flow until we have received at least 12.0% on our invested equity, after which our co-venture partner will receive distributions until it has reached the same 12.0% on its invested equity. Thereafter, operating cash flow will be distributed 49.0% to us and 51.0% to our co-venture partner.

The amended and restated operating agreement also provides for priority distributions of sale proceeds, if any. First, we will receive a priority distribution equal to a return of our invested capital plus an amount that when added to all distributions of cash flow made to us during the life of our investment, is sufficient to generate a 12.0% internal rate of return on our invested capital. Second, our co-venture partner will receive distributions that when added to all distributions of cash flow made to our co-venture partner during the life of its investment, is sufficient to generate a 12.0% internal rate of return on its invested capital. Third, any further sale proceeds will be distributed 49.0% to us and 51.0% to our co-venture partner.

Critical Accounting Policies

We believe our most critical accounting policies are the accounting for lease revenues (including straight-line rent), the regular evaluation of whether the value of a real estate asset has been impaired, real estate purchase price allocations and accounting for joint ventures. Each of these items involves estimates that require management to make judgments that are subjective in nature. We rely on our experience, we collect historical data and current market data, and we analyze these assumptions in order to arrive at what we believe to be reasonable estimates. Under different conditions or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported related to the accounting policies described below. In addition, application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgments on the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Real estate is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. We allocate the cost of newly acquired properties between net tangible and identifiable intangible assets. The primary intangible asset associated with an apartment property acquisition is the value of the existing lease agreements. When allocating cost to an acquired property, we allocate costs to the estimated value of the land, building and fixtures assuming the property is vacant and to the estimated intangible value of the existing lease agreements. We estimate the intangible value of the lease agreements by determining the lost revenue associated with a hypothetical lease-up. We depreciate the building and fixtures based on the expected useful life of the asset, which ranges from 27 to 45 years for the building and improvements and from five to seven years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. The intangible value of the lease agreements is amortized over the average remaining life of the existing leases, which ranges from three to 24 months. This amortization is included in depreciation and amortization expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

We review long-lived assets and related identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances occur, recoverability of the asset to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to future net cash flows, undiscounted and without interest, expected to be generated by the asset. If the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest) is less than our carrying amount for the asset, an impairment loss is recognized based upon the asset’s fair value.

Investments

The Company follows the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2004), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” or FIN 46R, and the Company is required to evaluate whether it has a controlling financial interest in an entity through means other than voting rights. If we determine that the joint venture is a “variable interest entity” (“VIE”) and that we are the “primary beneficiary” as defined in FIN 46R, we will account for such investment as if it were a consolidated subsidiary. For a joint venture investment which is not a VIE or in which we are not the primary beneficiary, we consider other relevant accounting literature including Accounting Principles Board Opinion 18—”The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock,” Statement of Position (“SOP”) 78-9—”Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Ventures,” and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue (“EITF”) 04-5 to determine the method of accounting for each of the partially-owned entities. In accordance with the above pronouncements, we determine whether we should consolidate the entity or account for it on the equity method or cost method. Factors considered in determining whether or not we exercise control include substantive participating rights of partners on significant business decisions, including dispositions and acquisitions of assets, financing and operating and capital budgets, board and management representatives and authority and other contractual rights of our partners. To the extent that we are deemed to control these entities, these entities will be consolidated.

As of March 31, 2008, we held a 99.3% ownership interest in Paladin OP and Paladin OP holds a 70% ownership interest in Springhurst Housing Partners, LLC (“Springhurst”), a 65% ownership interest in Glenwood Housing Partners I, LLC (“Glenwood”) , a 97.5% ownership interest in KC Pinehurst Associates, LLC (“KC Pinehurst”), a 97.5% ownership interest in KC Pheasant Associates, LLC (“KC Pheasant”), a 97.5% ownership interest in KC Retreat Associates, LLC (“KC Retreat”) and a 74% ownership interest in PRIP 801, LLC, as described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements. We have determined that Paladin OP and its investees are not VIEs. We consolidate Paladin OP, Springhurst, Glenwood, KC Pinehurst, KC Pheasant and KC Retreat, as we are the majority owner and exercise control over all significant decisions. We account for our investment in PRIP 801, LLC under the equity method of accounting, as the other member has substantive participating rights as defined in EITF 04-5 and SOP 78-9. This investment is recorded initially at cost, and subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings or losses and cash contributions and distributions.

On a periodic basis we will evaluate whether there are any indicators that the value of our investments in partially-owned entities are impaired. An investment is impaired if our estimate of the value of the investment is less than the carrying amount. The ultimate realization of our investment in partially-owned entities is dependent on a number of factors including the performance of that entity and market conditions. If we determine that a decline in the value of a partially-owned entity is other than temporary, then we would record an impairment charge.

Revenue Recognition

We primarily lease residential apartments to tenants under non-cancellable operating leases with terms ranging from three to 24 months. Rental income related to leases is recognized in the period earned over the lease term in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 13, “Accounting for Leases.” Other income consists of various tenant-related charges and is recognized as revenue in the period in which the applicable charge is incurred.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable is included in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. Bad debts are recorded under the specific identification method, whereby, uncollectible receivables are directly written off when identified.

Use of Estimates

The presentation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Income Taxes

The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2006, under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Company believes it operates in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to its shareholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income taxes on its taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state or local taxes on its income and property or net worth and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. No provision has been made for federal income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” FIN 48 increases the relevancy and comparability of financial reporting by clarifying the way companies account for uncertainty in measuring income taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the company has taken or expects to take on a tax return. This Interpretation only allows a favorable tax position to be included in the calculation of tax liabilities and expenses if a company concludes that it is more likely than not that its adopted tax position will be sustained. The Company adopted FIN 48 as required effective January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. All of the Company’s tax years are subject to examination by tax jurisdictions.

In accordance with FIN 48, the Company has assessed its tax positions for all open tax years as of January 1, 2007 and concluded that there were no material FIN 48 uncertainties to be recognized. The Company’s accounting policy with respect to interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties is to classify these amounts as provision for income taxes. The Company has not recognized any interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands the related disclosure requirements. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and for interim periods within those years. The Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”. The fair value option established by SFAS No. 159 permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity will report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings (or another performance indicator if the business entity does not report earnings) at each subsequent reporting date. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and for interim periods within those years. The Company has adopted this SFAS No. 159 effective January 1, 2008 and has elected not to measure any of our current eligible financial asset or liabilities at fair value upon adoption. However, the Company does reserve the right to elect to measure future eligible financial assets of liabilities at fair value.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations” which requires most identifiable assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interests and goodwill acquired in a business combination to be recorded at full fair value. Under SFAS No. 141R, all business combinations will be accounted for by applying the acquisition method. SFAS No. 141R is effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier application is prohibited and will be applied to business combinations occurring after the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 141R on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-an amendment of ARB No. 51”, which will require noncontrolling interests (currently referred to as minority interest) to be treated as a separate component of equity, not as a liability or other item outside of permanent equity. The Statement applies to the accounting for noncontrolling interests and transactions with noncontrolling interest holders in consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 160 is effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier application is prohibited. SFAS No. 160 will be applied prospectively to all noncontrolling interests, including any that arose before the effective date except that comparative period information must be recast to classify noncontrolling interests in equity, attributed net income and other comprehensive income to noncontrolling interests, and provide other disclosures required by SFAS No. 160. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 160 on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In September 2007, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue 07-6, “Accounting for the Sale of Real Estate Subject to the Requirements of FASB Statement No. 66 When the Agreement Includes a Buy-Sell Clause,” which clarifies that a buy-sell clause, in and of itself, does not constitute a prohibited form of continuing involvement that would preclude partial sale treatment under Statement 66. EITF 07-6 applies prospectively to new arrangements entered into in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The Company does not expect the adoption of EITF 07-6 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2007

Rental income for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 was $2,077,885 compared to $1,092,540 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. Our rental income has increased due to our acquisitions of Pinehurst Apartment Homes and Pheasant Run Apartments in September 2007 and Retreat Apartments in January 2008. We expect rental income to continue to increase in future periods, as compared to historical periods, as a result of our investments in real estate acquired in 2007 and 2008 and future acquisitions of real estate investments.

Other income for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 was $192,662 compared to $88,872 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. Other income consists of various tenant-related charges and is recognized as revenue in the period in which the applicable charge is incurred. The increase in other income for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 is attributable to our acquisitions in 2007 and 2008.

Property operating expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 were $783,977 compared to $355,480 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The increase in property operating expenses related primarily to expenses incurred for Pinehurst Apartment Homes, Pheasant Run Apartments and Retreat Apartments. We expect property operating expenses to continue to increase in future periods, as compared to historical periods, as a result of our acquisitions in 2007 and 2008 and future acquisitions of real estate investments.

Real estate taxes were $163,466 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 compared to $98,651 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The increase in real estate taxes in 2008 is a result of our acquisitions in 2007 and 2008.

General and administrative expenses were $350,158 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 compared to $188,537 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The amount of general and administrative expenses we were permitted to accrue and pay under the 2%/25% Rule, discussed below under “Related Party Transactions and Agreements,” increased during the quarter ended March 31, 2008 due to the fact that our average invested assets increased as a result of our acquisitions in 2007 and 2008. We expect this trend to continue as we acquire additional real estate investments.

Interest expense, including amortization of deferred financing costs, was $846,100 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 and $574,262 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The increase in interest expense was primarily related to mortgage notes payable and indebtedness incurred in connection with our acquisition of Pinehurst Apartment Homes and Pheasant Run Apartments in September 2007and Retreat Apartments in 2008 and certain financing costs that we incurred in connection with such indebtedness.

Depreciation and amortization expense was $574,287 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 compared to $441,984 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense is a result of our acquisitions in 2007 and 2008.

Loss allocated to minority interest decreased from $79,228 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 to $34,323 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 due mainly to the allocation of losses to the provisions of each projects operating agreement.

Net loss decreased from $372,045 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 to $368,301 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 primarily due to the net impact of items discussed above.

Related Party Transactions and Agreements

Selling Commissions and Dealer Manager Fees. Pursuant to the terms of the Dealer Manager Agreement, we pay Paladin Securities selling commissions of 7.0% of the gross offering proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock in our Offering and 4.0% of the gross offering proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan. We also pay Paladin Securities a dealer manager fee of up to 2.5% of gross offering proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock in our Offering. Paladin Securities may pay all or a portion of these selling commissions and dealer manager fees to participating broker-dealers. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, we incurred $326,563 in selling commissions and dealer manager fees to Paladin Securities.

Organization and Offering Costs. Our organization and offering costs are paid by Paladin Advisors or its affiliates, including Paladin Realty, on behalf of us and directly by us. Organization and offering costs consist of actual legal, accounting, printing and other offering expenses, including amounts to reimburse Paladin Advisors, its affiliates or our dealer manager, for all marketing related costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, expenses relating to registering and marketing the shares and other marketing and organization costs, technology costs and expenses attributable to the Offering, and payment or reimbursement of bona fide due diligence expenses of the dealer manager and broker-dealers participating in the Offering. Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, we are obligated to reimburse Paladin Advisors or its affiliates for amounts advanced for organization and offering costs, provided that Paladin Advisors and its affiliates are responsible for the payment of organization and offering costs to the extent they exceed 3.0% of gross proceeds from the Offering and will be required to return to us any amount we reimburse them in excess of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the Offering.

We had incurred organization and offering costs of $6,603,829 as of March 31, 2008, which includes $5,677,310 paid by Paladin Advisors as described in Note 6 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements included herewith. Such costs only become a liability to us to the extent they do not exceed 3.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering. When recorded by us, organization costs are expensed as incurred and offering costs are charged to shareholders’ equity. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, we recognized $109,178 of offering costs.

 

25


Table of Contents

As of March 31, 2008, $836,800 in offering costs have been charged to shareholders’ equity and $51,134 of organization costs were expensed in 2005.

Subject to the 3% limitation, the remaining $5,715,895 in organization and offering costs, as of March 31, 2008, will be recognized in future periods as we receive additional proceeds of the Offering.

Expense Reimbursement. Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, Paladin Advisors is entitled to reimbursement of actual expenses incurred for administrative and other services provided to us by Paladin Advisors and its affiliates for which they do not otherwise receive a fee. We will not reimburse Paladin Advisors for operating expenses that in the fiscal year then ended exceeded the greater of (1) 2% of our average invested assets or (2) 25% of our net income (the “2%/25% Rule”), and Paladin Advisors must reimburse us quarterly for any amounts by which our operating expenses exceed the 2%/25% Rule in the previous four consecutive fiscal quarters (the “Expense Period”). Our average invested assets for any period are equal to the average book value of our assets invested in equity interests in, and loans secured by, real estate before reserves for depreciation or bad debts or other similar non-cash reserves computed by taking the average of such values at the end of each month during the period. Our net income for any period is equal to our total revenue less total expenses other than additions to reserves for depreciation, bad debts or other similar non-cash reserves for such period. Operating expenses include all expenses incurred by us under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) (including the asset management fee), but excluding organization and offering expenses, selling commissions and dealer manager fees, interest payments, taxes, non-cash expenditures such as depreciation, amortization and bad debt reserves, the subordinated disposition fee, acquisition and advisory fees and expenses and distributions pursuant to Paladin Advisors’ subordinated participation interest in Paladin OP.

Paladin Advisors must reimburse the excess expenses to us within 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter unless a majority of the independent directors determine that the excess expenses were justified based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which they deem sufficient. Within 60 days after the end of any Expense Period for which total operating expenses exceed the 2%/25% Rule, we will send our stockholders written disclosure, together with an explanation of the factors the independent directors considered in arriving at the conclusion that the excess expenses were justified. However, at Paladin Advisors’ option, Paladin Advisors or its affiliate, as applicable may defer receipt of any portion of the asset management fee or reimbursement of expenses and elect to receive such payments, without interest, in any subsequent fiscal year that Paladin Advisors designates.

During the Expense Period ended March 31, 2008, our operating expenses, including expenses incurred on our behalf by Paladin Advisors and its affiliates, exceeded the 2%/25% Rule by $120,830. During the Expense Period ended March 31, 2008, $568,009 was paid by Paladin Advisors, and the board of directors (including the independent directors) have approved reimbursing Paladin Advisors for this amount in the future to the extent that reimbursement of this amount, together with all operating expenses paid or reimbursed for the then-current Expense Period, would not result in payment or reimbursement of operating expenses in excess of the 2%/25% Rule in that period. In making this determination, the board of directors (including the independent directors) noted that these were legitimate operating expenses necessary for the operation of our business, we are in our early stages of operations and have limited operations to cover our operating expenses and because such amounts will only be reimbursed in the future to the extent described above.

As of March 31, 2008, we incurred $62,126 in general and administrative expenses. In accordance with the Advisory Agreement, we recognize on a quarterly basis amounts not exceeding the 2%/25% Rule. Due to the application of the 2%/25% Rule, we were able to recognize $350,158 of general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of operations with the additional amount of $288,032 recorded as due to affiliate.

Acquisition and Advisory Fees. Pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement, we pay Paladin Advisors acquisition and advisory fees consisting of 2.75% of (1) the contract purchase price for a property acquired directly or through a joint venture or (2) with respect to real estate related investments, the appraised value of the underlying property, not to exceed 5.5% of the funds we advance with respect to the investment. Paladin Advisors was entitled to acquisition and advisory fees of $156,750 relating to the acquisition of Retreat Apartments, which were paid in the quarter ended March 31, 2008. The acquisition and advisory fees were capitalized as part of our investment in 801 Fiber Optic Drive, Champion Farms Apartments, Fieldstone Apartments, Pinehurst Apartment Homes, Pheasant Run Apartments and Retreat Apartments.

Asset Management Fees. Pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement, an annual asset management fee is payable to Paladin Advisors monthly in an amount equal to one-twelfth of 0.6% of (1) the contract purchase price of a property acquired directly or through a joint venture or (2) with respect to real estate related investments, the appraised value of the underlying property, not to exceed 1.2% of the funds we advance with respect to the investment. Paladin Advisors receives this fee for supervising the management, leasing, development and construction services provided for our properties by third parties and management of real estate related investments. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company paid Paladin Advisors $52,413 for asset management fees earned for the three months ended March 31, 2008.

Trends or Uncertainties

Our management is not aware of any material trends or uncertainties, other than national economic conditions affecting real estate generally, that may reasonably be expected to have a material impact, favorable or unfavorable, on revenues or income from the acquisition, management and operation of real estate and real estate related investments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the three months ended March 31, 2008, our sources of funds were:

 

   

net proceeds of $3,058,976 from the sale of 338,978 common shares in our Offering; and

 

   

net operating income of $1,323,104 from our investments in real estate.

We consider net operating income to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure because net operating income reflects the operating performance of our properties and excludes certain items that are not considered to be controllable in connection with the management of the property, such as depreciation, interest expense, interest income and general and administrative expenses. Additionally, we believe that net operating income is a widely accepted measure of comparative operating performance in the real estate investment community. However, our use of the term net operating income may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may have different methodologies for computing this amount. We believe that the line on our consolidated statement of operations entitled “net loss” is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to net operating income. The following table is a reconciliation of net operating income to our reported net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008:

Table of Contents

We are dependent upon the net proceeds to be received from the Offering to conduct our proposed activities. The capital required to purchase real estate and real estate related investments will be obtained from the Offering and from any indebtedness that we may incur in connection with the acquisition of any real estate and real estate related investments thereafter. We anticipate our sources of funds will continue to consist of the net proceeds of the Offering and indebtedness. We believe that these cash resources will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements for the foreseeable future, and we do not anticipate a need to raise funds from other than these sources within the next twelve months.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $456,025 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $241,348 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 due to our acquisitions of Pinehurst Apartment Homes and Pheasant Run Apartments in September 2007 and Retreat Apartments in January 2008.

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $16,579,587, which included $16,338,543 relating to the purchase of real estate and improvements and an increase in restricted cash of $245,717, less distributions from real estate joint venture in excess of equity in earnings of $4,673. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $392,947, which included $35,491 relating to the expenditure of real estate and improvements and a decrease in due to affiliates of $357,456 relating to payments of acquisition fees previously deferred.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $17,245,193 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 related to $3,385,539 in proceeds from the issuance of common shares in our Offering, $13,600,000 of borrowings from mortgages payable and $1,029,225 decrease in due from affiliates offset primarily by $16,865 of payments on mortgages payable, $92,076 in deferred loan costs, $326,563 of selling commissions and dealer manager fees, $109,178 of Offering costs, $152,922 of dividends paid and $71,967 distributions to minority interest. Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $691,233 primarily related to $3,854,757 in proceeds from the issuance of common shares in our Offering offset primarily by $2,650,000 of payments on note payable to affiliate, $367,920 of selling commissions and dealer manager fees, $102,517 of Offering costs and $43,087 of dividends paid.

Mortgages Payable

We have mortgage loans in an aggregate amount of $57,462,260 outstanding, consisting of (1) $16,350,000 incurred in connection with the acquisition of our interest in Champion Farms Apartments, (2) $16,500,000 incurred in connection with the acquisition of our interest in Fieldstone Apartments, (3) $4,762,260 incurred in connection with the acquisition of our interest in Pinehurst Apartment Homes, (4) $6,250,000 incurred in connection with the acquisition of our interest in Pheasant Run Apartments and (5) $13,600,000 incurred in connection with the acquisition of our interest in Retreat Apartments. These mortgage notes payable are described in detail in Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements included herein.

Leverage Policy

Our charter does not permit borrowings that would cause our aggregate borrowings to exceed 65% of the aggregate asset value of all of our real estate and real estate related investments, unless approved by our independent directors and the justification for such excess borrowing is disclosed to our stockholders in our next quarterly report. At year end December 31, 2007, our leverage exceeded 65%, and as a result of the addition of the mortgage loan secured by the Retreat Apartments, our leverage continues to exceed 65% as of March 31, 2008. In accordance with our charter, our board of directors, including our independent directors, approved the addition of the mortgage loan secured by KC Retreat and the continuation of our leverage exceeding 65%.

The board of directors determined that the excess leverage was justified for the following reasons: (1) the loan assumption enabled us to purchase the assets and earn rental and interest income more quickly and (2) the acquisition is likely to increase the net offering proceeds from our Offering, thereby improving our ability to meet our goal of acquiring a diversified portfolio of properties to generate current income for investors and preserve investor capital. We will likely continue to exceed our charter’s leverage guidelines during the early stages of our operations.

Table of Contents

On March 25, 2008, we amended our bylaws to include a provision that requires our board of directors, in applying and calculating the 65% leverage limitation, to further ensure that the maximum amount of our aggregate borrowings, in the absence of a satisfactory showing that a higher level of borrowing is appropriate, do not exceed 300% of the our net assets. The provision further mandates that any excess in borrowing over such 300% leverage limitation shall be approved by a majority of our independent directors and disclosed to shareholders in our next quarterly report, along with a justification for such excess. As of March 31, 2008, our aggregate borrowings did not exceed 300% of our net assets.

Dividends

We paid $396,673 in dividends during the three months ended March 31, 2008. Our board of directors has declared dividends for the periods listed below to stockholders of record as the close of business each day during the applicable period and paid on the dates listed below.

Each of our seven real estate investments is structured as a joint venture with an unaffiliated third-party. As required under GAAP, our financial statements present the operations of 801 Fiber Optic Drive and 6700 PRIP, LLC on an unconsolidated basis, and the operations of Champion Farms Apartments, Fieldstone Apartments, Pinehurst Apartment Homes, Pheasant Run Apartments and the Retreat Apartments on a consolidated basis. Consolidation requires us to reflect 100% of the income and expenses of property operations with a partial offset to account for the minority interest held by our joint venture partner. As structured, our investment in Champion Farms Apartments represents a 70% ownership interest, our investment in Fieldstone Apartments a 65% ownership interest, our investment in Pinehurst Apartment Homes a 97.5% ownership interest, our investment in Pheasant Run Apartment a 97.5% ownership interest, a 97.5% ownership interest in the Retreat Apartments and a 49.0% ownership interest in Hilltop Apartments. However, by the terms of the joint ventures for Champion Farms and Fieldstone Apartments we are entitled to 100% of available cash flow from each property as a priority distribution until we receive at least an 8.25% return on our invested capital and by the terms of the joint ventures for Pinehurst Apartment Homes and Pheasant Run Apartments, we are entitled to 100% of available cash flow from each property as a priority distribution until we receive at least a 9.0% return on our invested capital. By the terms of the joint ventures for the Retreat Apartment and Hilltop Apartments, we are entitled to 100% of available cash flow from each property as a priority distribution until we receive at least a 12.0% return on our invested capital. The following chart compares cash distributions received from the Company’s investments in 801 Fiber Optic Drive, Champion Farms Apartments, Fieldstone Apartments, Pinehurst Apartment Homes, Pheasant Run Apartments and Retreat Apartments during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2007 and the first quarter of 2008 with dividends paid during the same period.

Summary of Cash Distributions from Investments:

                    

Year ended December 31, 2007

   $ 166,500    $ 378,129    $ 303,932    $ 63,768    $ 62,054    N/A    $ 974,383

     25,900      131,732      110,521      54,255      59,448    73,866    $ 455,722
                                              

Summary of Dividends:

                    

Year ended December 31, 2007

                     $ 969,937

Quarter ended March 31, 2008

                     $ 396,673

Of the $396,673 dividends noted above, $152,922 was paid in cash and $243,751 was paid through the dividend reinvestment plan in the form of additional shares issued.

As shown in the charts, cash distributions from our investments have exceeded the dividends paid for the year ended December 31, 2007 and the three months ended March 31, 2008. In addition, for the three months ended March 31, 2008, cash flow from operations was $456,025, which exceeds the amount of dividends paid in cash. Paladin Advisors has paid expenses on our behalf and Paladin Advisors has deferred the reimbursement of a portion of these expense payments and from time to time has deferred certain other fees owed to it. We are dependent on Paladin Advisors to support our financial position currently because of our small size. As we continue to grow by selling shares in our Offering and by making additional investments, we expect to be able to finance our operations without advances from and deferrals of fees otherwise payable to Paladin Advisors.

As of March 31, 2008, Paladin Advisors and its affiliates had incurred on our behalf $362,146 in general and administrative expenses. Pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement, Paladin Advisors has deferred (without interest) repayment of these expenses. As of March 31, 2008, we are not obligated to reimburse these expenses due to the application of the 2%/25% Rule, respectively. We may be obligated to pay these amounts to Paladin Advisors or record them as obligations on our financial statements in future periods as we receive additional proceeds from the Offering and income from our investments. The payment of these obligations may impact our ability to pay future dividends. Paladin Advisors is not obligated to either pay expenses on our behalf or defer reimbursements of such expense payments or fees in future periods. If Paladin Advisors were to cease paying expenses on our behalf or deferring reimbursement of expenses or fees, our ability to pay dividends to our stockholders could be adversely affected, and we may be unable to pay dividends to our stockholders, or such dividends could decrease significantly. Additionally, if Paladin Advisors continues to pay expenses on our behalf and/or defer reimbursement of expense payments or fees, the ultimate repayment of these obligations could adversely impact on our ability to pay dividends in future periods as well as potentially adversely impact the value of your investment.

The amount of dividends to be distributed to our stockholders in the future will be determined by our board of directors and are dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for payment of dividends (including whether Paladin Advisors continues to pay expenses and/or defer reimbursement of expense payments or fees), our financial condition, capital expenditure requirements, annual distribution requirements needed to maintain our status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, any limitations imposed by the terms of indebtedness we may incur and other factors.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2008 and Deecember 31, 2007, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. In pursuing our business plan, we expect that the primary market risk to which we will be exposed is interest rate risk.

We may be exposed to the effects of interest rate changes primarily as a result of borrowings used to maintain liquidity and fund expansion and refinancing of our real estate investment portfolio and operations. Our interest rate risk management objectives will be to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings, prepayment penalties and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs while taking into account variable interest rate risk. To achieve our objectives, we may borrow at fixed rates or variable rates. We may also enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps and caps in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument. We will not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.

In addition to changes in interest rates, the value of our real estate and real estate related investments is subject to fluctuations based on changes in local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of lessees, and which may affect our ability to refinance our debt if necessary.

As of March 31, 2008, we had outstanding fixed-rate debt of approximately $57.5 million.

As of March 31, 2008, the fair value of our fixed-rate debt is estimated to be $58.3 million, compared to its carrying value of $57.5 million. To determine fair value, the fixed-rate debt is discounted at a rate based on an estimate of current lending rates as of March 31, 2008.

A 50 basis point increase in interest rates on our fixed-rate debt would decrease the fair value of our $57.5 million fixed-rate debt by approximately $1.7 million. A 50 basis point decrease in interest rates on our fixed-rate debt would increase the fair value of our $57.5 million fixed-rate debt by approximately $1.0 million.

These amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our financial instruments. These analyses do not consider the effect of any changes in overall economic activity that could occur in that environment. Further, in the event of a change of the magnitude discussed above, we may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, these analyses assume no changes in our financial structure.

 

ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon, and as of the date of, the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective, in all material respects, to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required.

There have been no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. There were no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses identified in the evaluation, and therefore, no corrective actions were taken.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

The following risk factors are hereby added to the risk factors previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007:

The proposed amendments to our charter may not be approved by our stockholders at our annual meeting.

We submitted proposed amendments to our charter in proxy materials distributed to stockholders on April 30, 2008. We are seeking stockholder approval to amend certain provisions in our charter in response to comments received from state regulators in connection with our pending follow-on offering of common stock and in order to receive clearance to offer and sell securities in such states. In addition, such proposed amendments are necessary to comply with the North American Securities Administrators Association, Inc.’s Statement of Policy Regarding Real Estate Investment Trusts, as revised and adopted on May 7, 2007, and applicable provisions of Maryland law, the state in which we are organized. We cannot accurately predict whether our stockholders will approve all or any of the proposed amendments to our charter at our annual meeting, to be held on June 19, 2008. If the proposed amendments are not approved, we may not be able to sell shares of our common stock in connection with our follow-on offering in all states.

We may not receive clearance to offer and sell shares of our common stock in connection with our follow-on offering from all fifty states prior to the consummation of the follow-on offering.

Although approximately forty states have granted us clearance, upon receipt of SEC effectiveness, to offer and sell shares of our common stock in connection with our follow-on offering, we cannot ensure that we will receive clearance in all fifty states prior to the consummation of our follow-on offering, and we will not be able to offer and sell shares in any state in which our offering has not been cleared.

 

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

On February 23, 2005, our Offering (SEC File No. 333-113863) was declared effective and we commenced our offering efforts. As of March 31, 2008, we had sold 2,958,939 shares of common stock in the Offering, raising gross proceeds of $29,499,674. From this amount, we have incurred $2,667,599 in selling commissions and dealer manager fees to our dealer managers, $6,603,824 in organization and offering costs (of which $887,935 has been recorded in our financial statements), $1,013,183 in acquisition and advisory fees and $255,263 in asset management fees.

For information regarding how we used the net proceeds from our Offering (along with how we used cash from operating activities) through March 31, 2008, see our consolidated statements of cash flows included in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2008, we did not redeem any shares pursuant to our share redemption program.
