Bluerock Private Real Estate Fund Announces Monthly Distribution

NEW YORK, Sept. 3, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Bluerock Private Real Estate Fund (BPRE) has announced a monthly distribution of $0.1371 per share for September 2026, marking a steady commitment to its shareholders. This distribution, reflecting a 7.3% distribution rate on Net Asset Value (NAV), is anticipated to bring an annualized market distribution rate of approximately 13.8% and an annualized tax-equivalent distribution rate of 21.5%. The distribution is based on the BPRE closing price of $11.91 on September 3, 2026.

BPRE has increased its distributions four times since listing, underscoring its management's dedication to maximizing shareholder value. These increases reflect the Fund's strategic roadmap of reallocating capital from its legacy core+ institutional fund holdings into specialty direct real estate investments, believed to offer stronger income and total return potential. Notable progress includes the identification of $700 million in investments that are either closed, under contract, or part of the investment pipeline.

As of August 31, 2026, the Fund managed approximately $3.2 billion in net assets, with holdings in 25 private equity and 17 private debt real estate investments, valued at around $250 billion. These investments are subject to change, and should not be considered investment advice.

To facilitate investor convenience, BPRE offers a Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRIP) program, allowing shareholders to reinvest their monthly cash distributions into additional shares. This program can potentially enhance compounding and, in certain scenarios, enable investors to acquire shares at a discount to Net Asset Value (NAV).

Some or all of BPRE's distributions may be considered a return of capital, and the Fund provides a notice of the best estimate of the sources of the distribution at the time of distribution. Detailed information is available on the Fund's website at bprefund.com.

Bluerock Private Real Estate Fund remains the only New York Stock Exchange-listed closed-end fund dedicated to private real estate, and it is the largest real estate-focused closed-end fund on the market. Since its listing in December 2025, BPRE has been executing its strategic roadmap to maximize shareholder value through capital rotation into high-growth real estate sectors and consistent distribution increases.
