Risk factors

FS Credit REIT

This material must be read in conjunction with the FS Credit Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (FS Credit REIT) prospectus in order to fully understand all of the implications and risks of the offering of securities to which the prospectus relates.

An investment in FS Credit REIT involves a high degree of risk. You should purchase these securities only if you can afford the complete loss of your investment. The risks include the following:

Since there is no public trading market for shares of FS Credit REIT’s common stock, repurchase of shares by FS Credit REIT will likely be the only way to dispose of your shares. FS Credit REIT’s share repurchase plan will provide stockholders with the opportunity to request that FS Credit REIT repurchase their shares on a monthly basis, subject to certain limitation. Further, FS Credit REIT’s board of directors may modify or suspend our share repurchase plan if it deems such action to be in our best interest and the best interest of stockholders. Finally, FS Credit REIT is not obligated by its charter or otherwise to effect a liquidity event at any time. As a result, shares should be considered as having only limited liquidity and at times may be illiquid. The purchase and repurchase price for shares of FS Credit REIT’s common stock will be based on NAV and will not be based on any public trading market. Because the valuation of FS Credit REIT’s investments is inherently subjective, the NAV of FS Credit REIT’s common stock may not accurately reflect the actual price at which assets could be liquidated on any given day. Valuations and appraisals of real estate-related debt and investments include estimates of fair value and may not necessarily correspond to realizable value, which could adversely affect the value of an investment. FS Credit REIT’s business and operations are currently dependent on the commercial real estate industry. Adverse conditions in the commercial real estate industry can have a significant negative effect on FS Credit REIT’s business and financial condition. FS Credit REIT cannot guarantee that it will make distributions, and if it does, such distributions may be funded from sources other than cash flow from operations, including, without limitation, the sale of assets, borrowings, return of capital or offering proceeds, and there are no limits on the amounts that may be paid from such sources. FS Credit REIT has no employees and is dependent on its adviser and sub-adviser to conduct operations. FS Credit REIT’s adviser and sub-adviser will face conflicts of interest as a result of, among other things, the obligation to allocate investment opportunities among FS Credit REIT and other investment vehicles, the allocation of time of their investment professionals and the substantial fees and expenses that FS Credit REIT will pay to its adviser and its affiliates. This is a “best efforts” offering. If FS Credit REIT is not able to raise a substantial amount of capital in the near term, its ability to achieve its investment objectives could be adversely affected. There are limits on the ownership and transferability of FS Credit REIT’s shares. FS Credit REIT’s failure to remain qualified to be taxed as a REIT would adversely affect the NAV of its shares and the amount of cash available for distribution to stockholders.
