We generally also incorporate information from other sources, including information and opinions available to our Manager, to further inform these estimations.

• Impairment :
1 unchanged sentence
Determining that a loan is impaired requires significant judgment from management and is based on several factors including (i) the underlying collateral performance, (ii) discussions with the borrower, (iii) borrower events of default, and (iv) other facts that impact the borrower’s ability to pay the contractual amounts due under the terms of the loan.
−Removed: If a loan is determined to be impaired, we record the impairment as a component of our CECL reserve by applying the practical expedient for collateral dependent loans.
−Removed: The CECL reserve is assessed on an individual basis for these loans by comparing the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, to the book value of the respective loan.
+Added: If a loan is determined to be impaired, we record the impairment as a component of our CECL reserves by applying the practical expedient for collateral dependent loans.
+Added: The CECL reserves are assessed on an individual basis for these loans by comparing the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, to the book value of the respective loan.
These valuations require significant judgments, which include assumptions regarding capitalization rates, discount rates, leasing, creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability and cost of financing, exit plan, loan sponsorship, actions of other lenders, and other factors deemed relevant by us.
Actual losses, if any, could ultimately differ materially from these estimates.
−Removed: We only expect to charge-off the impairment losses if and when such amounts are deemed nonrecoverable.
+Added: We only expect to charge-off the impairment losses in our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP if and when such amounts are deemed non-recoverable.

Revenue Recognition
4 unchanged sentences
In addition, for loans we originate, the related origination expenses are deferred and recognized as a reduction to interest income, however expenses related to loans we acquire are included in general and administrative expenses as incurred.
+Added: Real Estate Owned
+Added: We may assume legal title or physical possession of the collateral underlying a loan through a foreclosure or the execution of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure.
+Added: These real estate acquisitions are classified as real estate owned, or REO, on our consolidated balance sheet and are initially recognized at fair value on the acquisition date in accordance with the ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations.”
+Added: Upon acquisition of REO, we assess the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets, which may include land, buildings, tenant improvements, “above-market” and “below-market” leases, acquired in-place leases, other identified intangible assets and assumed liabilities, as applicable, and allocate the fair value to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities.
+Added: We assess and consider fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize discount and/or capitalization rates that we deem appropriate, as well as other available market information.
+Added: Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions.
+Added: We capitalize acquisition-related costs associated with asset acquisitions.
+Added: Real estate assets held for investment, except for land, are depreciated using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings and 10 years for tenant improvements.
+Added: Renovations and/or replacements that improve or extend the life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
+Added: The cost of ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
+Added: Real estate assets held for investment are assessed for impairment on a quarterly basis.
+Added: If the depreciated cost basis of the asset exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the asset is considered impaired and the depreciated cost basis is reduced to the fair value.
+Added: The impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its fair value.
+Added: The evaluation of anticipated future cash flows is highly subjective and is based in part on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates, capital requirements and anticipated holding periods that could differ materially from actual results.
+Added: Real estate assets are classified as held for sale in the period when they meet the criteria under ASC Topic 360 “Property, Plant, and Equipment.” Once a real estate asset is classified as held for sale, depreciation is suspended and the asset is reported at the lower of its carrying value or fair value less cost to sell.
+Added: As of March 31, 2024, we had one REO asset which was vacant and classified as held for investment.
