FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”), which reflect the current views of Belpointe PREP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(together with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) with respect to,
among other things, our future results of operations and financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements
by words such as “anticipate,” “approximately,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,”
“estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “outlook,” “plan,” “potential,”
“predict,” “seek,” “should,” “will,” and “would” or the negative version
of these words or other comparable words or statements that do not relate strictly to historical or factual matters. By their nature,
forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, are not statements of historical fact or guarantees of future performance
and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions or changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict or quantify, including
those risks described under Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023,
a copy of which may be accessed here , and, in particular due to changes with respect to borrowing costs as a result of interest rates
and other factors, our ability to raise capital and access debt financing to continue to execute on our investment strategy, inflation,
changes in the availability and price of insurance coverage, construction delays, delays in the lease-up and stabilization of our multifamily
properties, fluctuations in occupancy rates and market rents as a result of competition, severe weather events and other natural phenomena,
local economic factors and other market conditions beyond our control, changes in landlord-tenant laws in the markets in which we operate
and the projected impact of such factors on our business, financial performance and operating results. Our expectations, beliefs and
projections are expressed in good faith, and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that
management’s expectations, beliefs and projections will result or be achieved, and actual results may vary materially from what
is expressed in or indicated by the forward-looking statements.
We
caution you that the risks, uncertainties and other factors referenced above may not contain all of the risks, uncertainties and other
factors that are important to you. There may be other factors that cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking
statements, including factors discussed in Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations” of this Form 10-Q, as such factors may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov .
You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q in the context of these risks and uncertainties. In addition,
we cannot assure you that we will realize the results, benefits or developments that we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially
realized, that they will result in the consequences or affect us or our business in the way expected. In light of the significant uncertainties
inherent in these forward-looking statements, the inclusion of this information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any
other person that our plans, strategies and objectives, which we consider to be reasonable, will be achieved. All forward-looking statements
in this Form 10-Q apply only as of the date made and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included
in this Form 10-Q and in other filings we make with the SEC. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking
statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances, except as required by law.

NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note
1 – Organization, Business Purpose and Capitalization
Organization
and Business Purpose
Belpointe
PREP, LLC (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is focused
on identifying, acquiring, developing or redeveloping and managing commercial real estate located within “qualified opportunity
zones.” We were formed on January 24, 2020 as a Delaware limited liability company and qualify as a partnership and qualified opportunity
fund for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
At
least 90% of our assets consist of qualified opportunity zone property, and all of our assets are held by, and all of our operations
are conducted through, one or more operating companies (each an “Operating Company” and collectively, our “Operating
Companies”), either directly or indirectly through their subsidiaries. We are externally managed by Belpointe PREP Manager, LLC
(our “Manager”), an affiliate of our sponsor, Belpointe, LLC (our “Sponsor”). Subject to the oversight of our
board of directors (our “Board”), our Manager is responsible for managing our affairs on a day-to-day basis and for identifying
and making acquisitions and investments on our behalf.
Capitalization
On
May 9, 2023, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) declared effective our registration statement on Form
S-11, as amended (File No. 333-271262) (the “Follow-on Registration Statement”), registering the offer and sale of up to
$ 750,000,000 of our Class A units on a continuous “best efforts” basis by any method deemed to be an “at the market”
offering pursuant to Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including by offers
and sales made directly to investors or through one or more agents (our “Follow-on Offering”).
In
connection with the Follow-on Registration Statement, we entered into a non-exclusive dealer manager agreement with Emerson Equity LLC
(the “Dealer Manager”), a registered broker-dealer, for the sale of our Class A units through the Dealer Manager. The Dealer
Manager will enter into participating dealer agreements and wholesale agreements with other broker-dealers, referred to as “selling
group members,” to authorize those broker-dealers to solicit offers to purchase our Class A units. We will pay our Dealer Manager
commissions of up to 0.25 %,
and the selling group members commissions ranging from 0.25 %
to 4.50 %,
of the principal amount of Class A unit sold in the Follow-on Offering.
In
addition, the Follow-on Registration Statement constitutes a post-effective amendment to the registration statement on Form S-11, as
amended (File No. 333-255424), registering the offer and sale of our ongoing initial public offering of up to $ 750,000,000 of our Class
A units, declared effective by the SEC on September 30, 2021, of which $ 513,013,330 remained unsold as of September 30, 2024 (our “Primary
Offering” and, together with our Follow-on Offering, our “Public Offerings”). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we have sold aggregate gross proceeds of $ 1,000,000 and $ 1,711,020 ,
respectively, of Class A units in connection with our Public Offerings.
The
purchase price for Class A units in the Public Offerings will be the lesser of (i) the current net asset value (the “NAV”)
of our Class A units, and (ii) the average of the high and low sale prices of our Class A units on the NYSE American (the “NYSE”)
during regular trading hours on the last trading day immediately preceding the investment date on which the NYSE was open for trading
and trading in our Class A units occurred. Our Manager calculates our NAV within approximately 60 days of the last day of each quarter,
and any adjustments take effect as of the first business day following its public announcement. On August 30, 2024, we announced that
our NAV as of June 30, 2024 was equal to $ 98.24 per Class A unit.
Note
2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis

accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all of our accounts, including those of our controlled subsidiaries. The portion
of members’ capital in controlled subsidiaries that are not attributable, directly or indirectly, to us are presented in noncontrolling
interests. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
We
have evaluated our economic interests in entities to determine if they are deemed to be variable interest entities (“VIEs”)
and whether the entities should be consolidated. An entity is a VIE if it has any one of the following characteristics: (i) the entity
does not have enough equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (ii) the at-risk equity
holders, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest; or (iii) the entity is structured with non-substantive
voting rights. The distinction between a VIE and other entities is based on the nature and amount of the equity investment and the rights
and obligations of the equity investors. Fixed price purchase and renewal options within a lease, as well as certain decision-making
rights within a loan or joint-venture agreement, can cause us to consider an entity a VIE. Limited partnerships and other similar entities
that operate as a partnership will be considered VIEs unless the limited partners hold substantive kick-out rights or participation rights.
Significant
judgment is required to determine whether a VIE should be consolidated. We review all agreements and contractual arrangements to determine
whether (i) we or another party have any variable interests in an entity, (ii) the entity is considered a VIE, and (iii) which variable
interest holder, if any, is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Determination of the primary beneficiary is based on whether a party
(a) has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE, and (b) has the obligation
to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
The
following table presents the financial data of the consolidated VIEs included in the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30,

An
interest in a VIE requires reconsideration when an event occurs that was not originally contemplated. At each reporting period we will
reassess whether there are any events that require us to reconsider our determination of whether an entity is a VIE and whether it should
be consolidated.

Emerging
Growth Company Status
We
are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jump Start Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”).
Under Section 107 of the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies are permitted to use an extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B)
of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private
companies. We have elected to use the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with
new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date
that we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company, or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period
provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B). By electing to extend the transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards, our
consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the consolidated financial statements of companies that comply with public
company effective dates.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ
from those estimates.
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
We
evaluate our tangible and identifiable intangible real estate assets for impairment when events such as delays or changes in development,
declines in a property’s operating performance, deteriorating market conditions, or environmental or legal concerns bring recoverability
of the carrying value of one or more assets into question. When qualitative factors indicate the possibility of impairment, the total
undiscounted cash flows of the property, including proceeds from disposition, are compared to the net book value of the property. If
the carrying value of the asset exceeds the undiscounted cash flows of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded in earnings to reduce
the carrying value of the asset to fair value, calculated as the discounted net cash flows of the property. In circumstances where the
highest and best use of a property is the fee simple value of vacant land, we compare book value of the property to the appraised value
of the land. If the carrying value of the asset exceeds the appraised value of the land, an impairment loss is recorded to reduce the
carrying value to the appraised value.
Restricted
Cash
Restricted
cash consists of amounts required to be reserved pursuant to contractual obligations and lender agreements for debt service. The following
table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets to the
consolidated statements of cash flows (amounts in thousands):

Liquidity
Our
future needs for liquidity will depend on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, our ability to generate cash flows
from operations, the timing and availability of net proceeds from our Public Offerings and any future offerings that we may conduct,
the timing and extent of our real estate acquisition and disposition activities, and the timing and extent of our construction and
development costs.
Economic
uncertainty, fluctuating interest rates, volatility in the real estate markets, slowdowns in transaction volume, delays in financings
from banks and other lenders and other negative trends may, in the future, adversely impact our ability to timely access potential sources
of liquidity. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, or on terms that are acceptable to us, our business, financial
condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We
believe that our cash on-hand, the anticipated net proceeds from our Public Offerings, the projected cash flows from our real estate
assets and our current and anticipated financing activities will be sufficient to meet our liquidity and capital resource requirements
for the next 12 months from the date of issuance of this Form 10-Q.

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07,
S e gment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07
is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2024, and requires single reporting entities to comply with the expanded reportable segment disclosures outlined in the
ASU. The expanded reportable segment disclosures are intended to enhance certain disclosures surrounding significant segment expenses.
We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements.
In
March 2024, the SEC adopted final rules under Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures
for Investors (the “Climate Rules”). The Climate Rules require quantitative and qualitative disclosure of certain climate-related
information in registration statements and annual reports filed. These disclosures include financial statement footnote disclosure related
to the effects of certain severe weather events and other natural conditions. In April 2024, the SEC issued an order staying the Climate
Rules pending completion of a judicial review of certain petitions challenging their validity. If the stay is lifted, the effective dates
remain unchanged and we remain a smaller reporting company, emerging growth company or non-accelerated filer, the Climate Rules will
be effective for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2027. We are currently evaluating the impact of the Climate Rules on our consolidated
financial statements.
Note
3 – Leases
Lessor
Accounting
We
own rental properties which are leased to tenants under operating leases with current expirations ranging from 2024 to 2040, with options
to extend or terminate the leases. Revenues from such leases are reported as Rental revenue in our consolidated statements of operations
and are comprised of (i) lease components, which includes fixed and variable lease payments, and (ii) non-lease components which includes
reimbursements of property level operating expenses. We do not separate non-lease components from the related lease components, as the
timing and pattern of transfer are the same, and account for the combined component.
Fixed
lease revenues represent the base rent that each tenant is required to pay in accordance with the terms of their respective leases reported
on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable term of the lease. Variable lease revenues include payments based on (i) tenant reimbursements,
(ii) changes in the index or market-based indices after the inception of the lease, (iii) percentage rents, or (iv) the operating performance
of the property. Variable lease revenues are not recognized until the specific events that trigger the variable payments have occurred.
The
following table summarizes the components of lease revenues (amounts in thousands):

for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
In
certain of our leases, the tenant is obligated to pay the real estate taxes, insurance, and certain other expenses directly to the vendor.
These obligations, which have been assumed by the tenants, are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. To the extent
any such tenant defaults on its lease or if it is deemed probable that the tenant will fail to pay for such obligations, a liability
for such obligations would be recorded.
We
assess the collectability of substantially all lease payments due by reviewing a tenant’s payment history or financial condition.
Changes to collectability are recognized as a current period adjustment to rental revenue. We have assessed the collectability of all
recorded lease revenues as probable as of September 30, 2024.

and other overhead expenses incurred in connection with the project.
During
the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred development fees earned during the construction phase of $ 1.2 million
and $ 1.2 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred development fees earned during

ownership interest (collectively, the “Nashville DMAs”). The aggregate development fees payable under the Nashville DMAs
are equal to 55 % of 4.5 % of the development budget or hard costs, as applicable. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we incurred
$ 0.4 million of development fees related to the Nashville DMAs, which were capitalized to Real estate under construction in our consolidated

commissions related to the brokerage services that it provides to us, which commissions vary, are based on a percentage of the
premiums that we pay and are set by the insurer. We have also engaged, and may continue to engage, Belpointe Specialty Insurance to provide us with contract insurance
consulting services related to owner-controlled insurance programs, for which we pay an administration fee.
During
the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and we obtained insurance premiums in the aggregate amount of $ 0.7 million and zero ,

Economic
Dependency

various agreements we have engaged our Manager and its affiliates, including in certain cases our Sponsor, to provide certain services
that are essential to the Company, including asset management services, asset acquisition and disposition services, supervision of our
Public Offerings and any other offerings we conduct, as well as other administrative responsibilities for the Company, including, without
limitation, accounting services and investor relations services. As a result of these relationships, we are dependent upon our Manager
and its affiliates, including our Sponsor. In the event that our Manager and its affiliates are unable to provide us with the services
we have engaged them to provide, we would be required to find alternative service providers.

We
are required to maintain an interest reserve and carry reserve for purposes of paying accrued but unpaid interest on the 1991 Main
Mezzanine Loan and interest, principal and other obligations under the 1991 Main Construction Loan. Undrawn amounts were held back
at closing and are being maintained by an administrative agent appointed by the lender (the “Reserves”). As interest
and other obligations accrue, the Reserves balance will be reduced and be added to the principal outstanding on the 1991 Main Mezzanine
Loan. As of September 30, 2024, the Reserves balance was $ 11.6 million.

Advances
under the 1991 Main Construction Loan bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the one-month term Secured Overnight Financing Rate
(“SOFR”) plus 3.45 %, subject to a minimum all-in per annum rate of 8.51 %. To mitigate our exposure to increases to the
one-month SOFR, we have obtained an interest rate cap (see Note 9 – Derivative Instruments).

The 1000 First Construction Loan contains two one-year extension options, subject to certain restrictions. Advances under the 1000
First Construction Loan bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the one-month term SOFR plus 3.80 %,

To mitigate our exposure to increases to the one-month SOFR, we have obtained an interest rate cap (see Note 9 – Derivative

Guarantees
and Covenants
Each
of our indebtedness agreements are secured by the individual underlying real estate investments serving as collateral. In connection
with certain agreements, we provided completion guarantees, which, among other things, guarantee completion of the work at each individual
construction project, as well as carveout guarantees pursuant to which we guarantee the borrowers obligations with respect to certain
non-recourse carveout events, such as “bad acts,” environmental conditions, and violations of certain provisions of the loan
documents. We also provided a customary environmental indemnity agreement to the certain lenders pursuant to which we agreed to protect,
defend, indemnify, release and hold harmless such lenders from and against certain environmental liabilities related to the real estate
investments for which they apply.
We
are subject to various financial and operational covenants which includes, but is not limited to, maintaining liquid assets of no less
than $20.0 million and a net worth of no less than $130.0 million. As of September 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all of our loan
covenants.
Note
8 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair
value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
marketplace participants at the measurement date under current market conditions ( i.e. , the exit price).
We
categorize our financial instruments, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1)
and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different
levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the
instrument.
Financial
assets and liabilities recorded on the consolidated balance sheets are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as
follows:
Level
1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level
2 – Significant other observable inputs ( e.g. , quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical
or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable such as interest rate and yield
curves, and market-corroborated inputs).
Level
3 – Valuation generated from model-based techniques that use inputs that are significant and unobservable in the market. These
unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation
techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques, which incorporate management’s
own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the instrument or valuations that require significant management
judgment or estimation.
Except
as described below, we estimated that our other financial assets and liabilities had fair values that approximated their carrying values
as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Recurring
Fair Value Measurements
Our
interest rate caps are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (see Note 9 – Derivative Instruments for further details). The
valuation of our interest rate caps are prepared by an independent third-party and are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy,
as the valuation is approximated using market values of similar instruments in active markets.

following table sets forth the carrying value and estimated fair value of our debt arrangements as of September 30, 2024 and December

Note
9 – Derivative Instruments
In
connection with our variable rate loan agreements (Note 7 – Debt, Net), we are required to obtain and maintain interest rate protection
in the form of interest rate caps during the term of the loans to effectively limit the impact of increases in the one-month SOFR. We
are subject to credit risk by the counterparty of these derivative instruments in the event of non-performance under the derivative contracts,
however we believe the risk to be minimal.

10 – Members’ Capital
Our
Operating Agreement generally authorizes our Board to issue an unlimited number of units and options, rights, warrants and appreciation
rights relating to such units for consideration or for no consideration and on the terms and conditions as determined by our Board, in
its sole discretion, and in most cases without the approval of our members. These additional securities may be used for a variety of
purposes, including in future offerings to raise additional capital and acquisitions. Our Operating Agreement currently authorizes the
issuance of an unlimited number of Class A units, 100,000 Class B units and one Class M unit.
During
the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we issued 15,390 and 12,659 Class A units, respectively. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2024 and 2023, we issued 24,694 and 56,062 Class A units, respectively. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023,
there were 3,647,093 and 3,622,399 Class A units, respectively, 100,000 Class B units and one Class M unit issued and outstanding.
Class
A units
Upon
payment in full of any consideration payable with respect to the initial issuance of our Class A units, the holder thereof will not be
liable for any additional capital contributions to the Company. Holders of Class A units are not entitled to preemptive, redemption or
conversion rights. Holders of our Class A units are entitled to one vote per unit on all matters submitted to a vote of our members.
Matters must generally be approved by a majority (or, in the case of the election of directors, by a plurality) of the votes entitled
to be cast.
Holders
of our Class A units share ratably in any distributions we make, subject to any statutory or contractual restrictions on distributions
and to any restrictions on distributions imposed by the terms of any preferred units we issue.
Upon
our dissolution, liquidation or winding up, after payment of all amounts required to be paid to creditors and holders of preferred units,
if any, holders of our Class A units are entitled to receive our remaining assets available for distribution.
15
Class
B units
All
of our Class B units are currently held by our Manager and were issued on September 14, 2021. Holders of our Class B units are not entitled
to preemptive, redemption or conversion rights. Holders of our Class B units are entitled to one vote per unit on all matters submitted
to a vote of our members. Matters must generally be approved by a majority (or, in the case of the election of directors, by a plurality)
of the votes entitled to be cast.
Holders
of our Class B units are entitled to share ratably as a class in 5 % of any gains recognized by, or distributed to, the Company or recognized
by or distributed from our Operating Companies or any subsidiary or other entity related to the Company, regardless of whether the holders
of our Class A units have received a return of their capital. The allocation and distribution rights that the holders of our Class B
units are entitled to may not be amended, altered or repealed, and the number of authorized Class B units may not be increased or decreased,
without the consent of the holders of our Class B units. In addition, our Manager, or any other holder of our Class B units, will continue
to hold the Class B units even if our Manager is no longer our manager.
Upon
our dissolution, liquidation or winding up, after payment of all amounts required to be paid to creditors and holders of preferred units,
if any, holders of Class B units will be entitled to receive any accrual of gains or distributions otherwise distributable pursuant to
the terms of the Class B units, regardless of whether the holders of our Class A units have received a return of their capital.
Class
M unit
The
Class M unit is currently held by our Manager and was issued on September 14, 2021. The holder of our Class M unit is not entitled to
preemptive, redemption or conversion rights. The holder of our Class M unit is entitled to that number of votes equal to the product
obtained by multiplying (i) the sum of the aggregate number of outstanding Class A units plus Class B units, by (ii) 10, on matters on
which the Class M unit has a vote. Our Manager will continue to hold the Class M unit for so long as it remains our manager.
The
holder of our Class M unit does not have any right to receive ordinary, special or liquidating distributions.
Preferred
units
Under
our Operating Agreement, our Board may from time to time establish and cause us to issue one or more classes or series of preferred units
and set the designations, preferences, rights, powers and duties of such classes or series.
Basic

the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the basic and diluted weighted-average units outstanding were 3,640,067 and 3,577,857 ,
respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, net loss attributable to Class A units was $ 6.9 million and $ 3.3
million, respectively, and the loss per basic and diluted unit was $ 1.90 and $ 0.92 , respectively.
For
the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the basic and diluted weighted-average units outstanding were 3,634,454 and 3,542,765 ,

million, respectively, and the loss per basic and diluted unit was $ 4.30 and $ 2.87 , respectively.
Note
11 – Commitments and Contingencies
As
of September 30, 2024, we were not subject to any material litigation nor were we aware of any material litigation threatened against
us.
In
connection with the development of our investment at 1000 First Avenue North, St. Petersburg, Florida (“Viv”) and
Aster & Links, we have entered into separate construction management agreements for each asset which contain terms and conditions that are
customary for the related scope of work. As of September 30, 2024, we have an aggregate unfunded commitment of $ 83.8 million under these
two development projects. As of September 30, 2024, $ 25.5 million, inclusive of retainage of $ 15.2 million, is outstanding and payable
in connection with these developments.
Note
12 – Subsequent Events
Management
has evaluated subsequent events to determine if events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date through the date the consolidated
financial statements were issued require potential adjustment to or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements and has concluded
that, except as set forth below, all such events or transactions that would require recognition or disclosure have been recognized or
disclosed.

Item
2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
In
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”), unless context otherwise requires, references to “we,”
“us,” “our” “Belpointe” or the “Company” refer to Belpointe PREP, LLC, its operating
companies, Belpointe PREP OC, LLC, and Belpointe PREP TN OC, LLC (each an “Operating Company” and collectively, the “Operating
Companies”), and each of the Operating Companies’ subsidiaries, collectively.
The
following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited
consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and our audited consolidated financial statements
and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (our “Annual Report”) filed
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2024, a copy of which may be accessed here . As discussed in the section
entitled “Forward-Looking Statements,” the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve
risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause our results to differ
materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences
include, but are not limited to, those identified below, and those discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” included
our Annual Report.
Overview
We
are the only publicly traded qualified opportunity fund listed on a national securities exchange. We are a Delaware limited liability
company formed on January 24, 2020. We have been treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes since our tax year ended
December 31, 2020, and we currently intend to operate in a manner that will allow us to continue to meet the requirements for classification
as a partnership. We are focused on identifying, acquiring, developing or redeveloping and managing commercial real estate located within
qualified opportunity zones. At least 90% of our assets consist of qualified opportunity zone property. We qualified as a qualified opportunity
fund beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2020. Because we are a qualified opportunity fund certain of our investors are
eligible for favorable capital gains tax treatment on their investments.
All
of our assets are held by, and all of our operations are conducted through, one or more of our Operating Companies, either directly or
indirectly through their subsidiaries. We are externally managed by Belpointe PREP Manager, LLC (our “Manager”), which is
an affiliate of our sponsor, Belpointe, LLC (our “Sponsor”).
On
May 9, 2023, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) declared effective our registration statement on Form S-11,
as amended (File No. 333-271262) (the “Follow-on Registration Statement”), registering the offer and sale of up to $750,000,000
of our Class A units on a continuous “best efforts” basis by any method deemed to be an “at the market” offering
pursuant to Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including by offers and sales
made directly to investors or through one or more agents.
In
connection with the Follow-on Registration Statement, we entered into a non-exclusive dealer manager agreement with Emerson Equity LLC
(the “Dealer Manager”), a registered broker-dealer, for the sale of our Class A units through the Dealer Manager. The Dealer
Manager will enter into participating dealer agreements and wholesale agreements with other broker-dealers, referred to as “selling
group members,” to authorize those broker-dealers to solicit offers to purchase our Class A units. We will pay our Dealer Manager
commissions of up to 0.25%, and the selling group members commissions ranging from 0.25% to 4.50%, of the principal amount of Class A
unit sold in the Follow-on Offering.
In
addition, the Follow-on Registration Statement constitutes a post-effective amendment to the registration statement on Form S-11, as
amended (File No. 333-255424), registering the offer and sale of our ongoing initial public offering of up to $750,000,000 of our Class
A units, declared effective by the SEC on September 30, 2021, of which $513,013,330 remained unsold as of September 30, 2024 (our “Primary
Offering” and, together with our Follow-on Offering, our “Public Offerings”). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we have sold aggregate gross proceeds of $1,000,000 and $1,711,020,
respectively, of Class A units in connection with our Public Offerings.
The
purchase price for Class A units in our Public Offerings will be the lesser of (i) the net asset value (“NAV”) of our Class
A units, and (ii) the average of the high and low sale prices of our Class A units on the NYSE American (the “NYSE”) during
regular trading hours on the last trading day immediately preceding the investment date on which the NYSE was open for trading and trading
in our Class A units occurred. Our Manager calculates our NAV within approximately 60 days of the last day of each quarter, and any adjustments
take effect as of the first business day following its public announcement. On August 30, 2024, we announced that our NAV as of June
30, 2024 was equal to $98.24 per Class A unit.

Our
Business Outlook
Market
conditions for multifamily and mixed-use rental properties in the geographic markets in which we operate remained strong over the past
several quarters. Future economic conditions and the demand for multifamily and mixed-use rental properties in the geographic markets
in which we operate are, and the real estate industry in general is, subject to uncertainty as a result of a number of factors, including,
among others, construction delays, delays in the lease-up and stabilization of properties, unemployment rates, changes with respect to
borrowing costs as a result of interest rates and other factors, inflation, fluctuations in occupancy rates and market rents, financial
market volatility, general economic uncertainty, increasing energy costs, supply chain disruptions and labor shortages. The potential
effect of these and other factors and the projected impact of these and other events on our business, results of operations and financial
performance, presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to our future performance and financial results, including the potential
to negatively impact our costs of operations, our financing arrangements, the value of our investments, and the laws, regulations and
governmental and regulatory policies applicable to us. As a result, our past performance may not be indicative of future results.
Given
the evolving nature of certain of these factors, the extent to which they may impact our future performance and financial results will
depend on future developments which remain highly uncertain and, as a result, at this time we are unable to estimate the impact that
these factors may have on our future financial results. Our Manager continuously reviews our investment and financing strategies for
optimization and to reduce our risk in the face of the fluidity of these and other factors.
Our
Investments
As
of the date of this Form 10-Q, our investment portfolio consisted of the following multifamily and mixed-use rental properties:
1991
Main Street – Sarasota, Florida (“Aster & Links”) – 1991 Main Street (“1991 Main”
or “Aster & Links”) is a 5.13-acre site which was acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $20.7 million.
During
the nine months ended September 30, 2024, construction was completed and lease up began at Aster & Links, our mixed-use luxury development in downtown Sarasota, Florida. Aster &
Links is comprised of 424 luxury residential units, including a mix of one-bedroom, two-bedroom, three-bedroom,
four-bedroom apartments, townhome-style penthouse apartments, and six guest suite apartments, with approximately 51,000 square feet
of retail space located on the first level. Aster & Links is made up of two distinct 10 story buildings and features over 900 garage and surface-level parking
spaces, designed to cater to both residents and retail visitors.
In
May 2023, we announced the signing of a definitive lease agreement with Sprouts Farmers Market (“Sprouts”). Sprouts, now
open and occupying 23,000 square feet of retail space at Aster & Links, serves as a key anchor tenant, bringing fresh, natural and
organic food options to the heart of downtown Sarasota.
Aster
& Links offers a range of high-end amenities for residents, including a clubroom, fitness room, center courtyard with heated saltwater pool
and roof top amenities including a community room and a private dining area for private events as well as outdoor grills and
seating. Each building has its own leasing office to assist new residents.
Situated
in downtown Sarasota, at the intersection of Main Street and Links Avenue, Aster & Links is located in a high foot traffic area next
to a number of popular retail establishments. Sarasota’s metro area economy is the largest of the southwest Florida markets and
has had very strong gains in jobs, population, and home values over the past few years. Aster & Links is well-positioned to be a
premier residential and retail destination in the heart of this vibrant city.
1991
Main Construction Management Agreement
During
the year ended December 31, 2022, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary entered into a construction management agreement for the development
of Aster & Links. The construction management agreement contains terms and conditions that are customary for a project of this type and will
be subject to a guaranteed maximum price (a “GMP”). We currently anticipate that the funding for construction and soft costs
associated with the development will be a minimum of $187.7 million, inclusive of the GMP, and are building to an estimated unlevered
yield of greater than 6%.
1991
Main Construction Loan
On
May 12, 2023, our indirect majority-owned subsidiary entered into a variable-rate construction loan agreement (the “1991 Main Construction
Loan Agreement”) for up to $130.0 million in principal amount (the “1991 Main Construction Loan”) with Bank OZK (the
“1991 Main Mortgage Lender”), which is secured by Aster & Links. Advances under the 1991 Main Construction Loan bear interest
at a per annum rate equal to the one-month term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus 3.45%, subject to a minimum all-in per annum
rate of 8.51%, and may be used to fund the development of 1991 Main. The 1991 Main Construction Loan has an initial maturity date of
May 12, 2027 and contains a one-year extension option, subject to certain restrictions. As of September 30, 2024, we have drawn down
$84.3 million on the 1991 Main Construction Loan.
18
1991
Main Interest Rate Cap
As
required under the terms of the 1991 Main Construction Loan Agreement, our indirect majority-owned subsidiary also entered into an interest
rate cap agreement, effective July 10, 2024 (the “1991 Main Interest Rate Cap”), which, as of September 30, 2024, had a notional
amount of approximately $94.6 million, a one-month SOFR rate based strike price of 5.07%, and which is due to mature on July 10, 2025.
1991
Main Mezzanine Loan
On
January 31, 2024, our indirect majority-owned subsidiary entered into a mezzanine loan agreement, for up to $56.4 million in principal
amount (the “1991 Main Mezzanine Loan”) with Southern Realty Trust Holdings, LLC (the “1991 Main Mezzanine Lender”).
The 1991 Main Mezzanine Loan bears interest at a rate of 13.0% per annum and is secured by our investment in Aster & Links. Advances under
the 1991 Main Mezzanine Loan may be used to reimburse us for certain costs and expenses incurred in relation to, and to fund the continued
development of, Aster & Links. The 1991 Main Mezzanine Loan has an initial maturity date of May 12, 2027 and contains a one-year extension
option, subject to certain restrictions.
In
connection with the 1991 Main Mezzanine Loan, we are required to maintain an interest reserve and carry reserve for purposes of paying
accrued but unpaid interest on the 1991 Main Mezzanine Loan and interest, principal and other obligations under the 1991 Main Construction
Loan (the “Reserves”). We also provided the 1991 Main Mezzanine Lender with (i) a completion guaranty, which, among other
things, guarantees completion of the work on Aster & Links, and (ii) a carveout guaranty, which, among other things, indemnifies the 1991
Main Mezzanine Lender for losses resulting from certain “bad acts,” insolvency, environmental conditions, violations of the
terms of the 1991 Main Mezzanine Loan and certain provisions of the 1991 Main Construction Loan Agreement (collectively, the “Mezzanine

Revenue
Rental
Revenue
During
the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023, rental revenue increased by $0.4 million, primarily
as a result of the lease-up of certain residential units and retail spaces at Aster & Links, which was placed into service during
the current year.
During
the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023, rental revenue decreased by $0.2 million, primarily
due to lower below-market rent intangible amortization as certain intangible liabilities became fully amortized in the prior year, partially
offset as a result of the lease-up of certain residential units and retail spaces at Aster & Links, which was placed into service
during the current year.
22
Expenses
Property
Expenses
During
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, property expenses consisted of management fees, property operational expenses,
real estate taxes, and utilities and insurance expenses incurred in relation to our operating properties. During the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, property expenses increased by $1.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively.
This increase is primarily due to the property expenses incurred at Aster & Links, which was placed into service during the current
year.
General
and Administrative
During
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, general and administrative expenses primarily consisted of employee cost
sharing expenses (pursuant to our management agreement and employee and cost sharing agreement), marketing expenses, legal, audit, tax
and accounting fees. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, general and administrative
expenses decreased by $0.6 million and $0.8 million, respectively. This decrease is primarily due to lower marketing expenses, and dead
deal costs recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Interest
Expense
During
the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, interest expense totaled $3.3 million and zero, respectively, due to gross interest
expense of $4.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively, and the impact of non-cash amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs
of $0.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively, partially offset by capitalized interest and fees of $1.9 million and $0.6 million, respectively.
During
the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, interest expense totaled $5.8 million and zero, respectively, due to gross interest
expense of $8.8 million and $0.2 million, respectively, and the impact of non-cash amortization of debt discount and debt issuance
costs of $1.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively, partially offset by capitalized interest and fees of $4.5 million and $0.6
million, respectively. Please see “ Note 7– Debt ” in our consolidated financial statements
in this Form 10-Q for additional information regarding our debt arrangements.
Depreciation
and Amortization
During
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same periods in 2023, depreciation and amortization increased by
$1.0 million and $0.7 million, respectively. This increase is primarily attributable to the impact of placing certain fixed assets into
service at Aster & Links during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, partially offset by lower in-place lease intangible
amortization as certain intangible assets became fully amortized in 2023.
Impairment
of Real Estate
During
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded impairment charges of zero and $0.8 million, respectively. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recorded impairment charges of $0.8 million and $3.0 million, respectively. The impairment
charges recorded were in relation to one of our real estate assets located in Nashville, Tennessee, based on our conclusion that the
estimated fair market value of the real estate asset was lower than the carrying value, and as a result, we reduced the carrying value
to the estimated fair market value.
Other
income

Income
Interest
income for the periods presented were comprised of interest earned from cash balances held in interest bearing bank accounts. The increase
in the current year periods as compared to the prior year periods were attributable to higher cash balances in interest bearing accounts.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Overview
Our
primary needs for liquidity and capital resources are to fund our investments, including construction and development costs, pay our
Public Offering and operating fees and expenses, pay any distributions that we may make to the holders of our units and pay interest
on our outstanding indebtedness.
Our
Public Offering and operating fees and expenses include, among other things, legal, audit and valuation fees and expenses, federal and
state filing fees, SEC, FINRA and NYSE filing fees, printing expenses, administrative fees, transfer agent fees, marketing and distribution
fees, the management fee that we pay to our Manager, and fees and expenses related to acquiring, financing, appraising, and managing
our commercial real estate properties. We do not have office or personnel expenses as we do not have any employees.
Liquidity
Our
future needs for liquidity will depend on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, our ability to generate cash flows
from operations, the timing and availability of net proceeds from our Public Offerings and any future offerings that we may conduct,
the timing and extent of our real estate acquisition and disposition activities, and the timing and extent of our construction and
development costs.
Economic
uncertainty, fluctuating interest rates, volatility in the real estate markets, slowdowns in transaction volume, delays in financings
from banks and other lenders and other negative trends may, in the future, adversely impact our ability to timely access potential sources
of liquidity. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, or on terms that are acceptable to us, our business, financial
condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We believe that our cash on-hand, the anticipated net proceeds from our
Public Offerings, the projected cash flows from our real estate assets and our current and anticipated financing activities will be sufficient
to meet our liquidity and capital resource requirements for the next 12 months from the date of issuance of this Form 10-Q.
Capital
Requirements and Resources
Where
our Manager and its affiliates, including our Sponsor, have funded, and in the future if they continue to fund, our capital requirements
by advancing us offering and operating fees and expenses, we reimburse our Manager and its affiliates, including our Sponsor, pursuant
to the terms of our management agreement and employee and cost sharing agreement. Fees payable and expenses reimbursable to our Manager
and its affiliates, including our Sponsor, may be paid, at the election of the recipient, in cash, by issuance of our Class A Units at
the then-current NAV, or through some combination of the foregoing. There were no Public Offering costs incurred by our Manager and its
affiliates during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. During the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, our Manager
and its affiliates, including our Sponsor, incurred operating expenses of $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively, on our behalf.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, our Manager and its affiliates, including our Sponsor, incurred operating expenses
of $1.7 million and $1.7 million, respectively, on our behalf.

due to mature on June 26, 2025, with two six-month extension options, subject to certain restrictions. For additional details regarding
the 900 8th Land Loan, see “ —Our Investments—900 8th Avenue South – Nashville, Tennessee. ”
We
expect to continue to obtain the capital resources that we need over the short and long-term from cash on-hand, from the proceeds of
our Public Offerings and any future offerings that we may conduct, from the advancement of reimbursable fees and expenses by our Manager
and its affiliates, including our Sponsor, from the proceeds of secured or unsecured financing from banks and other lenders, from projected
operating funds from our real estate assets and from any other undistributed cash flow generated from operations. For additional details
regarding our Public Offerings, see “ —Overview ” and “ Part II, Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds—Use of Proceeds from Registered Sales of Securities .”
Leverage
We
employ leverage in order to provide more funds available for investment. We believe that careful use of conservatively structured leverage
will help us to achieve our diversification goals and potentially enhance the returns on our investments.
Our
targeted aggregate property-level leverage, excluding any debt at the Company level or on assets under development or redevelopment,
after we have acquired a substantial portfolio of stabilized commercial real estate, is between 50-70% of the greater of the cost (before
deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves) or fair market value of our assets. During the period when we are acquiring, developing
and redeveloping our investments, we may employ greater leverage on individual assets. An example of property-level leverage is a mortgage
loan secured by an individual property or portfolio of properties incurred or assumed in connection with our acquisition of such property
or portfolio of properties. An example of debt at the Company level is a line of credit obtained by us or our Operating Companies.
Our
Manager may from time to time modify our leverage policy in its discretion in light of then-current economic conditions, relative costs
of debt and equity capital, market values of our assets, general conditions in the market for debt and equity securities, growth and
acquisition opportunities or other factors. There is no limit on the amount we may borrow with respect to any individual property or
portfolio.

Item
2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Unregistered
Sales of Securities
During
the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act.
Use
of Proceeds from Registered Sales of Securities
On
September 30, 2021, the SEC declared effective our registration statement on Form S-11, as amended (File No. 333-255424), registering
the offer and sale of our ongoing initial public offering of up to $750,000,000 of our Class A units on a continuous “best efforts”
basis at an initial price of $98.24 per Class A unit, of which $513,013,330 remained unsold as of September 30, 2024.
On
May 9, 2023, the SEC declared effective our registration statement on Form S-11, as amended (File No. 333-271262), registering the offer
and sale of up to $750,000,000 of our Class A units on a continuous “best efforts” basis by any method deemed to be an “
at the market” offering pursuant to Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act, including by offers and sales made directly to investors
or through one or more agents. In addition, the Follow-on Registration Statement constitutes a post-effective amendment to the registration
statement for our Primary Offering.
In
connection with the Follow-on Registration Statement, we entered into a non-exclusive dealer manager agreement with the Dealer
Manager for the sale of our Class A units through the Dealer Manager. The Dealer Manager will enter into participating dealer
agreements and wholesale agreements with other broker-dealers, referred to as “selling group members,” to authorize
those broker-dealers to solicit offers to purchase our Class A units. We will pay our Dealer Manager commissions of up to 0.25%, and
the selling group members commissions ranging from 0.25% to 4.50%, of the principal amount of a Class A unit sold in the Public
Offerings. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we have sold aggregate gross proceeds of $1,000,000 and
$1,711,020, respectively, of Class A units in connection with our Public Offerings.
28
The
purchase price for Class A units in our Public Offerings will be the lesser of (i) the current NAV of our Class A units, and (ii) the
average of the high and low sale prices of our Class A units on the NYSE during regular trading hours on the last trading day immediately
preceding the investment date on which the NYSE was open for trading and trading in our Class A units occurred. As of June 30, 2024 the
assumed NAV of our Class A units was equal to $98.24 per Class A unit. Our Manager will calculate our NAV within approximately 60 days
of the last day of each quarter and any adjustments will take effect as of the first business day following its public announcement.
We
will file a prospectus supplement with the SEC disclosing quarterly determinations of our NAV per Class A unit. Additionally, if a material
event occurs in between quarterly updates of NAV that would cause our NAV to change by 10% or more from the most recently disclosed NAV,
we will disclose the updated price and the reason for the change in prospectus supplement as promptly as reasonably practicable.
From
the period of October 7, 2021, the date of the first closing held in connection with our Primary Offering, through December 31, 2023,
we issued 2,372,289 Class A units in our Primary Offering, raising net offering proceeds of $233.5 million. During the nine months ended
months ended September 30, 2024, we issued 24,694 Class A units, raising aggregate gross proceeds of $1,711,020, in connection with our Public Offerings. Together with the gross proceeds
raised in prior offerings by our predecessor in interest, Belpointe REIT, Inc., as of September 30, 2024, we have raised aggregate gross
offering cash proceeds of $356.0 million.
The
following tables summarize certain information about the proceeds of our Public Offerings and our use of those proceeds, including direct
or indirect payments to our directors, officers, affiliates or to any person owning 10% or more of any class of our equity securities
