Kingsbarn Realty Capital Purchases a 524-Unit Apartment Community in Mankato, Minnesota

**Las Vegas, Nevada, June 8, 2021** – Kingsbarn Realty Capital (“Company” or “Kingsbarn”) announced the acquisition of the Live Active apartment community in Mankato, Minnesota ("Property"). The Property is a 26-building, 524-unit, multifamily property situated on over 31 acres. The Property will be offered as a Delaware Statutory Trust (“DST”) investment by KB Exchange Trust, an affiliate of Kingsbarn, in early Fall, 2021.

\
"This purchase is an example of an opportunistic acquisition in which we were able to buy the asset at a significant discount due to the short-term market trepidation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic," said Jeff Pori, CEO of Kingsbarn Realty Capital. "We like that this community is over 95% occupied and has a long history of performing at or above the surrounding submarkets."

\
Although Live Active Apartments are typically 70%-80% occupied by students, the community is leased and operated as a traditional apartment community with 12-month leases and is rented by the unit rather than by the bed. Live Active Apartment Community is located within walking distance to Minnesota State University, the second-largest public university in Minnesota. The campus boasts that 80% of its student population lives off-campus, creating an inherent demand for this unique asset. In addition, the Property is proximate to over 900 acres of parks and recreational areas as well as amenity-rich neighborhoods which provide a great quality of life for Live Active's residents.

\
The Company will offer the investment interests in the Property as beneficial interests in a Delaware Statutory Trust ("DST"). The DST investment structure provides investors with fractional ownership in higher-quality properties as a simplified 1031 exchange solution. It is also very useful in helping investors diversify their real estate portfolios in a much easier fashion than attempting to purchase multiple properties on their own.
