                                                            Prosper  has  kept  ahead  of  last  year’s  leasing  pace. They  closed  on  12
                                                            leases over the past 2 weeks. They need 9 leases a week to reach 90%
                                                            occupancy for fall 2022. There has been minimal traffic for immediate move-
                                                            in.


                                                            However, there was a big request for June move-ins last year. Units are

                                                            again this summer.

                                                            until the property achieves at least 85% occupancy, which is expected for
                                                            Fall 2022.

                                                            INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE


                                                            Traffic was slower this past week but Prosper still closed more leases than
                                                            competitors in the area. Vacant beds provide an opportunity for summer
                                                            move-ins who will need housing as they finish the semester in May.

                                                            The  team  continues  to  work  with  ambassadors  in  different  programs  to
                                                            promote Prosper in private group chats. In addition to providing positive
                                                            verbal  reviews  with  peers,  the  ambassadors  have  also  provided  useful
                                                            information about programming deadlines and advertising opportunities.

                                                            Applicants  who  move-in  for  the  summer  can,  get  2  months  free  with  a

                                                            decreased price on one studio plan, to entice traffic to tour. A model/mock-

                                                            in  this  floorplan  that  struggled  in  the  previous  lease-up.  5  leases  have
                                                            been locked in for the lower rate. The Prosper team was at UMMC campus
