Bluerock Total Income+ Real Estate Fund Celebrates its 50th Consecutive Quarterly Distribution

NEW YORK, June 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Bluerock Total Income+ Real Estate Fund, one of the largest real estate interval funds in the world ("TI+," tickers: TIPRX, TIPPX, TIPWX, TIPLX, TIPMX) has paid a second quarter distribution of $0.3369 per share, or 1.3125% for the quarter, based on the share price of $25.67 (A-shares) for shareholders of record as of June 17, 2025, marking the Fund's 50th consecutive quarterly distribution. This distribution amount represents a tax-equivalent rate of 7.99% due to the tax-efficient nature of its distributions and an annualized rate of 5.25%¹ based on the current share price. Since inception in 2012 at $25 NAV per share, TIPRX has paid its shareholders approximately $19.21 per share in total distributions. This represents over 75% return on the Fund's initial shareholders' principal investment before taking into account compounding or appreciation related to distribution reinvestment.

"We are excited for TI+ to reach the 50th consecutive quarterly distribution mark, reflecting long term consistent, tax efficient income for Fund shareholders," said Jeffrey Schwaber, CEO of Bluerock Capital Markets. "Further, Bluerock manages TI+ with the goal of coupling quarterly distributions with growth and appreciation for attractive total returns. We believe the recent and extended market downturn associated with higher interest rates presents an attractive investment opportunity enhanced by the Fund's allocation to our highest growth conviction sectors."

Since inception, TI+ has delivered on its stated objectives, including generating current income and capital appreciation as well as maintaining low correlation and low volatility relative to the broader markets.

Net assets under management for TI+ are approximately $3.9 billion as of June 17, 2025. TI+ currently maintains positions in 31 private equity and 6 private debt real estate investments, with underlying assets valued at approximately $343 billion (holdings are subject to change at any time and should not be considered investment advice).²

(Actual distribution rate was 5.25% annualized for the most recent period. As of the most recent Section 19a notice, the amount of distribution attributable to return of capital (ROC) was 100%)

TI+ Fund A-Share & I-Share Net Performance

Returns presented are total net return: Expressed in percentage terms, the calculation of total return is determined by taking the change in price, reinvesting, if applicable, all income and capital gains distributions during the period, and dividing by the starting price. Returns greater than one year are annualized.

¹ The tax-equivalent distribution rate is the rate a fully taxable investment needs in order to equal the after-tax rate on a comparable tax-advantaged investment. The example assumes 37% maximum federal income tax rate and includes the 3.8% Medicare surtax that is applied to the net investment income above certain thresholds. It does not include state taxes. 76% was the calendar year return of capital ("ROC") and non-dividend distribution portion of distributions in 2024. ROC, for tax purposes, should be distinguished from an economic return of capital, where an investor is repaid out of its own contributions rather than from the economic profits of the investment. As a tax law concept, an ROC is not tied to an investment's financial performance. ROC distributions reduce the stockholder's tax basis in the year the dividend is received. The stockholder's tax basis may be reduced by ROC distributions in the year the distribution is received and generally defer taxes on that portion until the stockholder's stock is sold via repurchase. Upon repurchase, the investor will calculate their gain by reference to the lower cost basis attributable to the ROC distributions, which gain may be subject to tax at capital gain rates. Actual distribution rate was 5.25% annualized for the period. The Fund's distribution policy is to make quarterly distributions to shareholders. The level of quarterly distributions (including any return of capital) is not fixed. However, this distribution policy is subject to change. The Fund's distribution amounts were calculated based on the ordinary income received from the underlying investments, including short-term capital gains realized from the disposition of such investments. Shareholders should not assume that the source of a distribution from the Fund is net profit. All or a portion of the distributions consist of a return of capital based on the character of the distributions received from the underlying holdings, primarily Real Estate Investment Trusts. The final determination of the source and tax characteristics of all distributions will be made after the end of the year. Shareholders should note that return of capital will reduce the tax basis of their shares and potentially increase the taxable gain, if any, upon disposition of their shares. There is no assurance that the Company will continue to declare distributions or that they will continue at these rates.

Limited liquidity is provided to shareholders only through the Fund's quarterly repurchase offers for no less than 5% of the Fund's shares outstanding at net asset value. The Fund's shares have no history of public trading, nor is it intended that they will be listed on a public exchange at this time. No secondary market is expected to develop for the Fund's shares, liquidity for the Fund's shares will be provided only through quarterly repurchase offers for no less than 5% of the Fund's shares and there is no guarantee that an investor will be able to sell all the shares that the investor desires to sell in the repurchase offer.

Quarterly repurchases by the Fund of its shares typically will be funded from available cash or sales of portfolio securities. The sale of securities to fund repurchases could reduce the market price of those securities, which in turn would reduce the Fund's net asset value.
