We have acted as counsel to Secured Real Estate Income Fund II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), in connection with the Post-Qualification Amendment to the Offering Statement on Form 1-A qualified effective September 29, 2017, File No. 024-10623 (the “Post Amendment”) being filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Regulation A thereunder. The Post Amendment relates to the issuance and sale by the Company of up to $47,100,000 of Class A Units of the Company (the “Units”).

As such counsel, we have examined such documents and such matters of fact and law that we have deemed necessary for the purpose of rendering the opinion set forth herein. As to questions of fact material to this opinion, we have relied on certificates or comparable documents of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Company. In rendering the opinion expressed below, we have assumed without verification the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies and the authenticity of the originals of such copies.

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications, assumptions and limitations stated herein, we are of the opinion that the Units have been duly authorized and, when the Units have been duly issued and delivered against payment therefore in accordance with the terms of the Subscription Agreement, the Units will be validly issued, and purchasers of the Units will have no obligation to make payments to the Company or its creditors (other than the purchase price for the Units) or contributions to the Company or its creditors solely by reason of the purchasers’ ownership of the Units.

Our opinion that any document is legal, valid and binding is qualified as to:

(a)            limitations imposed by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally;

(b)            rights to indemnification and contribution, which may be limited by applicable law or equitable principles; and

(c)            general principles of equity, including without limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, and the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief and limitation of rights of acceleration, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

This opinion is limited to Delaware General Corporation Law and excludes Federal laws and any state blue sky securities law matters.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as Exhibit 1A-12 to the Offering Circular included in the Post Amendment. In giving this consent, we do not hereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose
