The information furnished in the interim condensed financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Although management believes the disclosures and information presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these interim condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto included in its most recent Form 10-K. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009.

In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 46(R) ("FIN 46(R)"), which further clarified and amended FIN 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, which requires the consolidation of entities in which an enterprise absorbs a majority of the entity's expected losses, receives a majority of the entity's expected residual returns, or is the primary beneficiary, as a result of ownership, contractual or other financial interests in the entity. CAK, CAS, CASDF, CAA, CAOP Managers, CAOPI, CALTO Managers and CALTO are considered variable interest entities of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

2. MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS

During the three month period ended March 31, 2009 the Company organized CAOP Managers and CAOPI. CAOP Managers is a wholly owned entity of the Company and was organized to manage and control all affairs of CAOPI.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

2. MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)

The Company organized CAOPI to raise equity capital through a private placement offering (the “CAOPI Fund”), which capital is to be used to acquire, manage, and dispose of distressed residential properties. The CAOPI Fund is designed to issue 100,000 Investment Units, consisting of one common and one preferred A unit, at $100 per unit. Holders of the CAOPI Fund Investment Units are entitled to the greater of a 15 percent annual return or 25 percent of all profits realized. As of March 31, 2009, the Company had raised $584,000 through the CAOPI Fund, resulting in the issuance of 5,840 Investment units, or 5,840 common and preferred A units. These amounts have been recorded in noncontrolling interest in consolidated LLCs, totaling $11,748,475.

In addition, during the three month period ended March 31, 2009 the Company organized CALTO Managers and CALTO. CALTO Managers is a wholly owned entity of the Company and was organized to manage and control all affairs of CALTO. CALTO Managers has the responsibility and final authority in substantially all matters affecting CALTO.

CALTO was organized to raise equity capital through a private placement offering (the “CALTO Fund”), which capital is to be used to acquire, manage, and dispose of distressed residential properties. The CALTO Fund is offering 10 percent Series A Preferred Units at $1.00 per unit. As of March 31, 2009, CALTO had raised $50,000, resulting in the issuance of 50,000 Series A Preferred Units. Interest is to be paid to holders of the Series A Preferred Units at the holder’s election, resulting in a monthly interest payout, or accrual of the same.

CALTO, in connection with an unrelated third party, has established a lease-purchase program that purchases single-family homes from banks and other financial institutions, and at the time of funding the purchase, leases these homes to qualified tenants who have purchased an option to acquire the home, at a higher price, from CALTO.

During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company continued it efforts to finalize entitlements and begin the development of a certain project. Accordingly, the Company secured $300,000 in debt financing to fund a portion of the initial phase’s major on-site improvements. The debt financing bears interest at 18 percent per annum, with interest only payments due monthly. In addition, the terms of the debt contemplate repayment of principal upon sale of the initial phase’s improved lots based on a $37,500 per lot release price. Any and all remaining accrued interest and principal is to be repaid upon the date of maturity, or September, 2010. This amount has been recorded in notes payable, noncurrent, totaling $15,356,783 at March 31, 2009.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2009, the Company incurred $91,500 in nonrefundable deposits, to be applied toward purchases of raw land in 2010. In addition, during the three month period ended March 31, 2009 CAOPI made $500,000 in nonrefundable deposits, to be applied towards the purchase of a pool of distressed assets in May, 2009. Accordingly, $500,000 has been recorded in properties held for sale, totaling $1,905,136 at March 31, 2009.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

3. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG LIVED ASSET

During the three months period ended March 31, 2009 the Company engaged a third party to perform an appraisal to determine the market value of approximately 348 acres, or of a long lived asset, purchased by the Company during 2005 and 2006. As a result of the appraisal’s determined market value, the Company’s management deemed it necessary to record an impairment of the long lived asset, totaling $4,294,316 for the three month period ended March 31, 2009, which amount has been separately recorded on the Company’s Statements of Operations.

Although the local economic circumstances in which the long lived asset is located has been relatively resilient to and less impacted by the national slowdown in economic growth, other market considerations resulted in the reduced market value of the long lived asset, as well as the Company management’s election to impair the long lived asset. These considerations include accelerating job losses, substantial slowing of residential home building activity and turmoil within the national financial markets, resulting in reduced availability of credit, or other debt financing.

The third party employed a sales comparison approach in determining market value of the long lived asset, including examining current offerings and analyzing prices buyers have recently paid for comparable property. The sales comparison approach included the comparison of property rights conveyed, the financial terms incorporated into the transaction, the conditions or motivations surrounding the sale, the location of the property, its utility and the physical characteristics of the property.

4. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to the three month period ended March 31, 2009, the Company had successfully raised $619,492 through its Series E Investment Unit private placement offering, resulting in the issuance of 61,949 common and preferred E units. In addition, the Company had successfully raised $1,317,411 through CAOPI Fund, resulting in the issuance of 1,317,411 common and preferred A units.

Subsequent to the three month period ended March 31, 2009, the Company created the Castle Arch Opportunity Partners III, LLC (“CAOPIII”). Similar to CAOPI, CAOPIII is to be managed and administered by CAOP Managers, and has been organized to raise equity capital through a private placement offering (the “CAOPIII Fund”), which capital is to be used to acquire, manage, and dispose of distressed residential properties. The CAOPIII Fund is designed to issue 100,000 Investment Units, comprised of one common and one preferred A unit, at $100 per unit. Holders of the CAOPIII Fund Investment Units are entitled to the greater of a 15 percent annual return or 25 percent of all profits realized. Subsequent to the three month period ended March 31, 2009, the Company had raised $585,000 through the CAOPIII Fund, resulting in the issuance of 5,850 Investment units, or 5,850 common and preferred A units.

Forward Looking Statement Notice

Certain statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are “forward-looking statements” (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of Castle Arch Real Estate Investment Company, L.L.C. (“we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company”) to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The Company's plans and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions involving the continued expansion of business. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Although the Company believes its assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved.

Description of Business

Our principal activities of securing acquisition rights to properties, obtaining zoning and other entitlements for the properties, securing financing for the purchase of the properties, improving the properties’ infrastructure and amenities, and selling the properties have been greatly affected by the current real estate market and financial crisis. Our business model is to secure purchase rights to, and if conditions warrant, to purchase outright raw land. We target land acquisitions in areas where we believe there will be relatively high increased population and economic growth. After purchase rights to the land are secured, we conduct engineering analysis of the raw land, including hydraulic, seismic and other analysis. We then conduct feasibility studies to determine the optimal residential density and commercial configuration. Many of the density and configuration decisions are contingent upon local governments’ growth targets. We then create master plans for the entire project. During this process there are a significant number of variables that result from governmental approvals, infrastructural developments, economic conditions, availability of credit and demographic shifts. The process of taking hundreds or in some cases thousands of acres of raw land to the point where home and commercial construction can begin takes years as opposed to months. For instance, the size of our projects typically require the construction of new sewage plants, roads, bridges, water ways and other significant infrastructural improvements to accommodate the number of buildings and new inhabitants. Projects of this magnitude require agreements with local governments as to who will bear what percentage of the costs of infrastructural improvements necessary to sustain the population influx. In addition, environmental approvals, construction plans and financing arrangements take significant time.

We believe that the significant declines in the demand for new homes, the significant oversupply of homes on the market and the significant reductions in the availability of financing for homebuyers indicate that the downturn is continuing and will continue. Most significant to our business, is the unprecedented downturn in the availability of credit financing. Our business model relies on the ability to apply cash derived from the sale of equity toward the purchase of properties and toward many of the entitlement improvement costs and then to finance the remaining purchase price and excavation costs through debt financing.

The unprecedented downturn in credit availability has caused us to delay commencement of excavation of certain infrastructural portions of both the Kingman, Arizona and the Smyrna, Tennessee area projects. In addition, even if we did have adequate financing to commence excavation, the timing of demand for lots which we intend to sell to builders must be considered. Presently, the growing number of home mortgage foreclosures has increased housing supply and driven down prices, making the purchase of a foreclosed home an attractive alternative to purchasing a new home. Homebuilders have responded to declining sales with significant concessions, further adding to the price declines. The decline in home values, the economic downturn, the loss of jobs, and the loss of consumer confidence have reached historical levels. As a result, the demand for new homes, and therefore, the demand for lots by home builders, has declined significantly.

In the three month period ended March 31, 2009, we commenced targeting acquisition of large tapes of foreclosed properties directly from banks. During the period, we took an equity position and management in several joint ventures to capitalize on the abundance of vacant, foreclosed residential properties. Until the inventory of vacant and foreclosed properties is depleted and some normalcy to the credit markets return, our primary business model of raw land acquisition, entitlement and lot sales to builders has substantially slowed.

Revenues

We had no revenues in the three-month period ended March 31, 2009. Currently, we are continuing to work several properties through the entitlement process and expect to generate revenues from those activities in 2009. However, we also expected revenues in the past that have yet to materialize, in part due to disruptions in the real estate and finance markets. Due to our limited revenues, our operations are currently funded by capital funding.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Our operating selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $1,374,055 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2009, compared to $ 2,301,703 during the comparable three-month period ended March 31, 2008. The decrease in operating expenses is primarily attributable to decreased salary and office expense allowance obligations. We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will continue to decrease in the coming three-months due to additional internal austerity measures and suspension of certain property development activities. Nevertheless, we expect a continuation of entitlement activities on a number of property projects. We do not anticipate significant revenues during the next three months; however, we do expect limited revenues from the sale of undeveloped land parcels. We also expect revenues in the coming months derived from the sale of entitled residential building lots out of the Wyoming property.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of $681,168, compared to $244,148 at March 31, 2008. Our management believes that proceeds from private offerings, loans and expected revenues will be sufficient for us to survive as a going concern for the next 12 months. However, due to the severe downturn in the real estate and financial markets, we believe that we will need to greatly reduce our operational costs during this period. Moreover, additional funding will be necessary to make adjustments to our business model. Management is actively pursuing additional sources of funding. In addition, management is expecting an increase in cash flows through anticipated revenue from the purchase and resale of foreclosed residential properties acquired from third parties.

However, if we do not raise sufficient funds in the future, we may not be able to implement our business plan, meet our existing debt obligations, take advantage of opportunities created by the dramatic shifts in the real estate and financial markets or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements. Financing transactions in the future may include the issuance of additional equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules, regulations and related forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of March 31, 2009, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The primary reason for this conclusion was the need for restatements of several of our financial disclosures in the past 12 months. Since determining that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective during 2008, we have implemented corrective policies and procedures. As of March 31, 2009, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2009 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

To the best knowledge of the officers and directors, the Company is not a party to any legal proceeding or litigation.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2009, we sold 1,268,545 common and preferred limited liability company units of our consolidated subsidiaries to 56 persons for a total of $2,868,836. We believe the transactions to be exempt under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, because they do not involve a public offering. We believe that this sale of securities did not involve a public offering on the basis that each investor is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D and because we provided each of our investors with a private placement memorandum disclosing items set out in Rule 501 and 506 of Regulation D. The shares sold were restricted securities as defined in Rule 144(a)(3). Further, each common and preferred unit certificate issued in connection with this private offering bears a legend providing, in substance, that the securities have been acquired for investment only and may not be sold, transferred or assigned in the absence of an effective registration statement or opinion of legal counsel that registration is not required under the Securities Act of 1933.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

In 2008, ANB Financial, one of our lenders (“Lender”) was closed by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) was named receiver. At the time of the closure, we had two Promissory Notes outstanding with the Lender, totaling $5,380,193 and $1,466,361, respectively. In June, 2008, both Promissory Notes became due and payable. Prior to such closure, we were engaged in discussions with the Lender regarding extension of the Notes. In 2008, the FDIC sold the two Promissory Notes to a third party lender, and we continue to communicate with this third party regarding possible modification of the terms of the loans. Subsequent to the two Promissory Notes’ original maturity dates in June, 2008, we have continued to accrue corresponding interest on these loans at the default rate. The total interest arrearage as of March 31, 2009 is $824,459 on the $5,380,193 note and $230,490 in interest accrued on the $1,466,361 note.
