Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On February 11, 2019, Reven Housing Funding 2, LLC ("Borrower"), a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reven Housing REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Reven”), entered into a Loan Agreement with Arbor Agency Lending, LLC (“Lender”), an approved Seller/Servicer for Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac). The Loan Agreement provides for a loan (“Loan”) to the Borrower in the original principal amount of $10,523,000.00. The Loan is a seven-year, interest-only payable Loan with principal due and payable at its seven-year maturity, and accruing interest at a fixed rate of 4.72% per annum. The Loan is secured by 143 of Reven’s single family homes. Proceeds of approximately $2.9 million were utilized to purchase 12 homes in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Additionally, as a result of the Loan, Reven received approximately $7.4 million of Loan proceeds, net of transaction fees and the purchase of homes noted above, which Reven intends to use for future acquisitions of single family homes.

 

The Loan Agreement and related loan documents evidencing, governing and/or securing the Loan (collectively, the “Loan Documents”) contain customary terms and conditions, including, without limitation, customary events of default and remedies of the Lender.

 

Additionally, in connection with the Loan, Reven entered into that certain Guaranty, dated February 11, 2019, with Lender (the “Guaranty”). The Guaranty provides that if Borrower were to default under the Loan Documents and such default remained uncured after any applicable notice and cure period under the Loan Documents had expired, then Reven would be liable for the repayment of the Loan up to $2,630,750.00, plus any additional amounts Borrower had personal liability for pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement.
