Re:
Bluerock Homes Trust, Inc.
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024
Commission File No. 001-41322
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter is submitted on
behalf of Bluerock Homes Trust, Inc. (the “Company”), in response to a comment received from the staff of the Division
of Corporation Finance (the “Staff”) of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”),
Office of Real Estate & Construction, by letter dated September 30, 2025 with respect to the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the Commission on March 20, 2025 (“Form 10-K”) and pursuant to a telephone
conversation with the Staff on September 23, 2025.
For your convenience, the
Company’s response is prefaced by the exact text of the Staff’s comment in bold, italicized text.
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 3 - Acquisition of Real Estate, page F-15
1. We note from your response dated September 5, 2025 to prior comment 1 that a lender unaffiliated
with the company financed the acquisition by funding $23.7M in first mortgage proceeds into title escrow. We further note that in your
letter dated August 1, 2025, your view that all debt secured by an acquired real estate operation at closing – whether existing
or in the form of new mortgage debt – should be excluded from the total investment as “assumed debt” for purposes of
your significance calculation. Your calculation of the investment test does not comply with Rules 1-02(w) and 3-14 of Regulation S-X.
Therefore, it appears that the acquisition of the real estate operation is significant, and financial statements are required under Rule
3- 14 of Regulation S-X.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the
Staff’s comment regarding the application of Rules 1-02(w) and 3-14 of Regulation S-X, and notes that on September 20, 2025, the
Staff granted the Company a waiver in accordance with Rule 3-13 of Regulation S-X, which permits the Company to omit the financial statements
required by Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X and the pro forma information related to the Timberlin Acquisition.
