NEXPOINT RESIDENTIAL TRUST, INC. (NYSE:NXRT) Files An 8-K Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

Item2.01.

On December29, 2016, NexPoint Residential Trust, Inc. (the
Company), through its operating partnership, NexPoint Residential
Trust Operating Partnership, L.P., acquired a two-property
portfolio in Houston, Texas for approximately $108 million. The
properties, Old Farm Apartment Homes, a 734-unit apartment
property built in 1998, and Stone Creek at Old Farm Apartments, a
190-unit apartment property built in 1999 (collectively, the H2
Portfolio), are situated on 35.1 acres of contiguous land.

The H2 Portfolio acquisition was structured as a reverse 1031
exchange to facilitate the Companys continued plan to recycle
capital from dispositions of assets from non-core markets into
well-located, covered-land assets in longer-term target markets.
The Company funded the purchase price with borrowings of
approximately $108 million under its credit facilities with
KeyBank National Association and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation (Freddie Mac). In connection with the acquisition, on
December29, 2016, the Company expanded its credit facility with
Freddie Mac, originally entered into on June6, 2016, to $300.0
million under the previously disclosed terms of the credit
agreement. Following the completion of the reverse 1031
exchanges, management expects the H2 Portfolios loan-to-value
ratio to stabilize at approximately 55%.

The information set forth under Item2.01 of this Current Report
is incorporated into this Item2.03 by this reference.
