We have audited the accompanying balance sheet and the related notes of Reven Housing Tennessee, LLC (the “Company”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reven Housing REIT, Inc. (the “Registrant”), as of July 28, 2014. Reven Housing Tennessee, LLC’s management is responsible for the financial statement. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statement based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Reven Housing Tennessee, LLC as of July 28, 2014, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Property Acquisitions
The Company accounts for its acquisitions of real estate in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Accounting for Business Combinations, Goodwill, and Other Intangible Assets, which requires the purchase price of acquired properties be allocated to the acquired tangible assets and liabilities, consisting of land, building, and identified intangible assets, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, the value of in-place leases, unamortized lease origination costs and security deposits, based in each case on their fair values and ASC 970, Real Estate Project Costs, which requires that pre-acquisition costs relating to the acquisition of property incurred before the property is acquired and are otherwise capitalizable should be capitalized.
The Company allocates the purchase price to tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land and building) based on the estimated fair values of those tangible assets, assuming the property was vacant. Fair value for land and building is based on the purchase price for these properties. The Company also considers information obtained about each property as a result of its pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing and leasing activities in estimating the fair values of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired.
The total value allocable to intangible assets acquired, which consists of unamortized lease origination costs and in-place leases (including an above-market or below-market component of an acquired in-place lease), are allocated based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company’s overall relationship with that respective tenant. Characteristics considered by management in allocating these values include the nature and extent of the existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the remaining term of the lease and the tenant’s credit quality, among other factors. As of July 28, 2014, management has determined that no value is required to be allocated to intangible assets, as the values are insignificant.
Residential Homes, net
Residential homes purchased by the Company are recorded at cost. The Homes are depreciated over the estimated useful lives using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. The estimated useful life for the residential homes is estimated to be 27.5 years.
Security Deposits
Security deposits represent amounts deposited by tenants at the inception of the lease. These amounts have been allocated from the purchase price of the Homes based on the signed lease agreements.

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE 4 – PURCHASE PRICE ALLOCATION
In accordance with ASC 805, the Company allocated the purchase price of the individual properties based on estimated values in accordance with the due diligence and the specific agreed upon contract values. Additional closing costs have been allocated proportionally based on these values. The allocation of costs between land and improvements have been estimated based on approximate fair market and tax assessed values. Based on these estimates, the Company has allocated approximately $700,000 of the total acquisition costs to land values and $3,952,559 to the value of the homes and improvements.
The 61 Homes purchased were all leased to tenants upon acquisition. Of these leases, 44 are for terms that are month to month or expire within one year of the purchase date, another 16 expire within two years of the purchase date, and one additional lease expires within three years of the purchase date.
NOTE 5 – FUNDS HELD IN ESCROW
Per the purchase agreements, the Company agreed to fund an escrow account for the purchase price of thirteen properties which will be acquired from the applicable sellers once acceptable lease agreements have been executed with tenants, and the properties are occupied. Amounts held in escrow for these deferred purchases totaled $823,000.
Additionally, $252,542 of the Company’s purchase funds were placed in escrow to be utilized for repairs to be made to the properties. These funds will be released to the sellers, upon completion of the repairs.
NOTE 6 – MEMBER’S EQUITY
The Company received capital contributions from the Registrant approximating $5,662,000.
NOTE 7 – COMMITMENT
The Company has entered a property management agreement with Marathon Management, LLC in which the Company will pay seven percent of gross rental receipts. Marathon Management, LLC managed 42 of the properties previously and is a related entity to several of the selling entities.
