Distributions to Shareholders

We have distributed, and intend to continue to distribute, enough of our taxable income to satisfy these requirements. Our general practice has been to target cash distributions to our common shareholders and the holders of limited partnership units of approximately 65% to 90% of our funds from operations and to use the remaining funds for capital improvements or the reduction of debt. Distributions to our common shareholders and unitholders in the yearyears ended December 31, 20192022 and in the transition period ended December 31, 20182021 totaled approximately 69%68% and 82%80%, respectively, on a per share and unit basis of our funds from operations.
For additional information on our sources of liquidity and funds from operations, see Item 7, "Management's“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources."”

INSURANCE
We purchase general liability and property insurance coverage for each of our properties. We also purchase limited terrorism, environmental, and flood insurance as well as other types of insurance coverage related to a variety of risks and exposures.
There are certain types of losses that may not be covered or could exceed coverage limits. Due to changing market conditions, our insurance policies are also subject to increasing deductibles and coverage limits. In addition, we carry other types of insurance coverage related to a variety of risks and exposures. Based on market conditions, we may change or potentially eliminate insurance coverages or face higher deductibles or other costs. Although we believe that we have adequate insurance coverage on our properties, we may incur losses, which could be material, due to uninsured risks, deductibles and/or losses in excess of coverage limits, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business. See Item 1A. Risk Factors - “Our current or future insurance may not protect us against possible losses.”
COMPETITION
There are numerous housing alternatives that compete with our apartment communities in attracting residents. Our apartment communities compete directly with other apartment communities, condominiums, and single-family homes in the areas in which our properties are located. If the demand for our apartment communities is reduced or competitors develop or acquire competing housing, rental and occupancy rates may decrease, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Additionally, we compete with other real estate investors, including other REITs, businesses, and other entities to acquire properties. This competition affects our ability to acquire properties we want to add to our portfolio and the price we pay forcost of those acquisitions. See Item 1A. Risk Factors - “Competition may negatively impact our earnings.”

Item 1A. Risk Factors
Risks Related to Our Properties and Operations
We face certain risks related to our ownership of apartment communities and operation of our business. Set forth below are the risks that we believe are material to IRET’sour shareholders and unitholders. You should carefully consider the following risks in evaluating our properties, business, and operations. Our business, financial condition, cash flows, results of operations, value of our real estate assets and/or the value of an investment in our stock or units are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those set forth below, any of which could cause our actual operating results to vary materially from our recent results or from our anticipated future results.
Risks Related to Our Properties and Operations
Inflation and price volatility in the global economy could negatively impact our business and results of operations. General inflation in the United States has risen to levels not experienced in recent decades, including rising energy prices, prices for consumer goods, interest rates, wages, and currency volatility. These increases and any fiscal or other policy interventions by the U.S. government in reaction to such events could negatively impact our business by increasing our operating costs and our borrowing costs as well as decreasing the capital available to our residents and prospective residents who wish to rent in our communities. Although we believe that we could increase rent to combat inflation, the cost to operate and maintain communities could increase faster or at a rate greater than our ability to increase rents, which could adversely affect our results of operations. We may also be limited by law in our ability to increase rents. See “Multifamily residential properties may be subject to rent stabilization regulations, now or in the future, which limit our ability to raise rents above specified maximum amounts and could give rise to claims by residents that their rents exceed such specified maximum amounts.” See “Adverse changes in taxes and other laws may affect our liabilities relating to our properties and operations.”
Uncertain global macro-economic and political conditions could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Our results of operations are materially affected by economic and political conditions in the United States and internationally, including inflation, deflation, interest rates, recession, availability of capital, and the effects of governmental initiatives to manage economic conditions. Current or potential residents may delay or decrease spending on housing as their budgets are impacted by economic conditions. The inability of current and potential residents to pay market rents may adversely affect our earnings and cash flows. In addition, deterioration of conditions in worldwide credit markets could limit our ability to obtain financing to fund our operations and capital expenditures.
The current invasion of Ukraine by Russia has escalated tensions among the United States, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) and Russia. The United States and other NATO member states, as well as non-member states, have announced new sanctions against Russia and certain Russian banks, enterprises and individuals. These and any future additional sanctions and any resulting conflict between Russia, the United States and NATO countries could have an adverse impact on our current operations because they could cause declining conditions in worldwide credit and capital markets and the economy in general. Further, such invasion, ongoing military conflict, resulting sanctions and related countermeasures by NATO states, the United States and other countries could to lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in the credit and capital markets, which could have an adverse impact on our operations and financial performance.
The ongoing pandemic of COVID-19 and the potential future outbreak of other highly infectious or contagious diseases may materially and adversely impact and disrupt our business, income, cash flow, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects and ability to service our debt obligations, and our ability to pay dividends and other distributions to our equityholders. The COVID-19 pandemic has and may continue to impact our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows as well as adversely affect our residents and commercial tenants, the real estate market, and the global economy and financial markets generally. The continued effects of COVID-19 will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity, and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures. Moreover, many of the other risks identified in this Report may be heightened because of the adverse impacts of COVID-19.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and continuing restrictions intended to prevent and mitigate its spread could have additional adverse effects on our business, including with regards to:
•our employees, residents, and commercial tenants, third party vendors and suppliers, and apartment communities, as well as our cash flow, business, financial condition, and results of operations;
•deteriorating economic conditions and rising unemployment rates in the markets where we own apartment communities or in which we may invest in the future;
•government actions or regulations arising out of the COVID-19 pandemic that limit economic and consumer activity or affect the operation of our properties;
•rental conditions in our markets, including occupancy levels and rental rates, changes in tax and housing laws, or other factors, including the impact of the COVID-19-related governmental rules and regulations relating to rental rates, evictions, and other rental conditions; and
•changes in operating costs related to complying with COVID-19 restrictions or otherwise responding to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Our financial performance is subject to risks associated with the real estate industry and ownership of apartment communities. Our financial performance risks include, but are not limited to, the following:
•downturns in national, regional, and local economic conditions (particularly increases in unemployment);
•competition from other apartment communities;
•local real estate market conditions, including an oversupply of apartments or other housing, or a reduction in demand for apartment communities;
•the attractiveness of our apartment communities to residents as well as residents'residents’ perceptions of the safety, convenience, and attractiveness of our apartment communities and the areas in which they are located;
•changes in interest rates and availability of attractive financing that might make other housing options, like home ownership, more attractive;
•our ability to collect rents from our residents;
•vacancies, changes in rental rates, and the periodic need to repair, renovate, and redevelop our apartment communities;
•increases in operating costs, including real estate taxes, state and local taxes, insurance expenses, utilities, and security costs, many of which are not reduced significantly when circumstances cause a reduction in revenues from a property;
•increases in compensation costs due to the tight labor market in many of the markets in which we operate;
•our ability to provide adequate maintenance for our apartment communities;
•our ability to provide adequate insurance on our apartment communities; and
•changes in tax laws and other government regulations that could affect the value of REITs generally or our business in particular.
Our property acquisition activities may not produce the cash flows expected and could subject us to various risks that could adversely affect our operating results. We have acquired and intend to continue to pursue the acquisition of apartment communities, but the success of our acquisition activities is subject to numerous risks, including the following:
•acquisition agreements are subject to customary closing conditions, including completion of due diligence investigations, and we may be unable to complete an acquisition after making a non-refundable deposit and incurring other acquisition-related costs;
���actual results may differ from expected occupancy, rental rates, and operating expenses of acquired apartment communities, may differ from the actual results, or from those of our existing apartment communities;
•we may be unable to obtain financing for acquisitions on favorable terms, or at all;
•competition for these properties could cause us to pay higher prices or prevent us from purchasing a desired property at all;
•we may be subject to unknown liabilities from acquired properties, with either no recourse or limited recourse against prior owners or other third parties with respect to these unknown liabilities;parties; and
•we may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions into our existing operations.
We may be unable to acquire or develop properties and expand our operations into new or existing markets successfully. We intend to explore acquisitions or developments of properties in new and existing geographic markets. Acquiring or developing new properties and expanding into new markets introduces several risks, including but not limited to the following:
•we may not be successful in identifying suitable properties or other assets that meet our acquisition or development criteria or in consummating acquisitions or developments on satisfactory terms, or at all;
•we may be unable to maintain consistent standards, controls, policies, and procedures, or realize the anticipated benefits of the acquisitions within the anticipated time frame, or at all;
•acquisitions and divestitures could divert our attention from our existing properties and could cause us to lose key employees or be unable to attract highly qualified new employees;
•unfamiliarity with the dynamics and prevailing market conditions or local government or permitting procedures of any new geographic markets could adversely affect our ability to successfully expand into or operate within those markets
or cause us to become more dependent on third parties in new markets due to our inability to directly and efficiently manage and otherwise monitor new properties in new markets;
•we may make assumptions regarding the expected future performance of acquired properties, including expected occupancy, rental rates, and cash flows, that prove to be inaccurate; and
•we may improperly estimate the costs of repositioning or redeveloping an acquired property.
We also may abandon opportunities to enter new markets that we have begun to explore for any reason and may, as a result, fail to recover expenses already incurred.
Our current or future insurance may not protect us against possible losses.We carry comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage, and other insurance with respect to our properties at levels that we believe to be adequate and comparable to coverage customarily obtained by owners of similar properties. However, the coverage limits of our current or future policies may be insufficient to cover the full cost of repair or replacement of all potential losses, or our level of coverage may not continue to be available in the future or, if available, may be available only at unacceptable cost or with unacceptable terms. We also do not maintain coverage for certain catastrophic events like hurricanes and earthquakes because the cost of such insurance is deemed by management to be higher than the risk of loss due to the location of our properties. In most cases, we have to renew our insurance policies on an annual basis and negotiate acceptable terms for coverage, exposing us to the volatility of the insurance markets, including the possibility of rate increases. In addition, a reduction of the number of insurance providers or the unwillingness of existing insurance providers to write insurance for multifamily properties may reduce the potential availability and/or cost for obtaining insurance on our properties. Any material increases in insurance rates or decrease in available coverage in the future could adversely affect our results of operations.
Catastrophic weather, natural events, and climate change could adversely affect our business. Some of our apartment communities are located in areas that may experience catastrophic weather and other natural events from time to time, including snow or ice storms, flooding, tornadoes, or other severe or inclement weather. During the year ended December 31, 2019, many of our markets were impacted by a series of adverse weather-related events. These events included extreme cold, record-setting snowfall, extensive hail storms in certain markets, and tornadoes, which caused excess ice and snow accumulation, water and hail damage, and other weather-related damage to some of our apartment communities. Although most of these losses were covered by insurance, these or other adverse and natural events could cause damage or losses that may be greater than insured levels. In the event of a loss in excess of insured limits, we could lose all or a portion of our investment in an affected property as well as additional revenue from that apartment community. We may continue to be obligated to repay mortgage indebtedness or other obligations related to an affected apartment community.
To the extent that we experience any significant changes in the climate in areas where our apartment communities are located, we may experience extreme weather conditions and prolonged changes in precipitation and temperature, all of which could result in physical damage to, and/or a decrease in demand for, our apartment communities located in these areas. If the impact of any such climate change were to be material, or occur for a lengthy period of time, our business may be adversely affected.
Changes in federal or state laws and regulations relating to climate change could result in increased costs to our business, including capital expenditures to improve the energy efficiency of our existing communities or new development communities without a corresponding increase in revenue. Among other things, "green" building codes may seek to reduce emissions through the imposition of standards for design, construction materials, water and energy usage and efficiency and waste management The imposition of such requirements in the future, including the imposition of new energy efficiency standards or requirements relating to resistance to inclement weather, could increase the costs of maintaining or improving our properties without a corresponding increase in revenue, thereby having an adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operation. The impact of climate
change also may increase the cost of, or make unavailable, property insurance or other hazard insurance on terms we find acceptable or necessary to adequately protect our properties.
We are dependent on a concentration of our investments in a single asset class, making our results of operations more vulnerable to a downturn or slowdown in the sector or other economic factors. Since April 30, 2018, substantiallySubstantially all of our investments have beenare concentrated in the multifamily sector. As a result, we will beare subject to risks inherent in investments in a single type of property. A downtowndownturn or slowdown in the demand for multifamily housing may have more pronounced effects on our business and results of operations or on the value of our assets than if we had continued to be more diversified in our investments into more than one asset class.
Our operations are concentrated in certain regions of the United States, and we are subject to general economic conditions in the regions in which we operate. Our overall operations are concentrated in the Midwest region and portions of theMountain West regionregions of the United States. Our performance could be adversely affected by economic conditions in, and other factors relating to, these geographic areas, including supply and demand for apartments in these areas, zoning and other regulatory conditions, and competition from other communities and alternative forms of housing. In particular, our performance is influenced by job growth, wage growth, and unemployment rates in the areas in which we operate. To the extent the economic conditions, job growth, wage growth, and unemployment in any of these markets deteriorate or any of these areas experience natural disasters or more pronounced effects of climate change, the value of our portfolio, our results of operations, and our ability to make payments on our debt and to make distributions could be adversely affected.
Our business depends on our ability to continue to provide high quality housing and consistent operation of our apartment communities, the failure of which could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Our business depends on providing our residents with quality housing and reliable services (including utilities), along with the consistent operation of our communities and their associated amenities, including covered parking, swimming pools, clubhouses with fitness facilities, playground areas, and other similar features. We may be required to undertake significant capital expenditures to renovate or reconfigure our communities in order to attract new residents and retain existing residents. The delayed delivery, material reduction, or prolonged interruption in any of these services may cause our residents to terminate their leases, may result in the reduction of rents and/or may result in an increase in our costs. In addition, we may fail to provide quality housing and continuous access to amenities as a result of other factors, including mechanical failure, power failure, inclement weather, physical or electronic security breaches, vandalism or acts of terrorism, or other similar events. Any of these issues could cause our residents to terminate or fail to renew their leases, could expose us to additional costs or liability claims, and could damage our reputation, any of which could impact our ability to provide quality housing and consistent operation of our apartment communities, which in turn could materially affect our business and results of operations.
Catastrophic weather, natural events, and climate change could adversely affect our business. Some of our apartment communities are located in areas that may experience catastrophic weather and other natural events from time to time, including snow or ice storms, flooding, tornadoes, or other severe or inclement weather. These adverse and natural events could cause damage or losses that may be greater than insured levels. In the event of a loss in excess of insured limits, we could lose all or a portion of our investment in an affected property as well as future revenue from that apartment community. We may continue to be obligated to repay mortgage indebtedness or other obligations related to an affected apartment community.
To the extent that we experience any significant changes in the climate in areas where our apartment communities are located, we may experience extreme weather conditions and prolonged changes in precipitation and temperature, all of which could result in physical damage to, and/or a decrease in demand for, our apartment communities located in these areas. If the impact of any such climate change were to be material, or occur for a lengthy period of time, our business may be adversely affected.
Our current or future insurance may not protect us against possible losses.We carry comprehensive liability, fire, cyber, extended coverage, and other insurance with respect to our properties at levels that we believe to be adequate and comparable to coverage customarily obtained by owners of similar properties. However, the coverage limits of our current or future policies may be insufficient to cover the full cost of repair or replacement of all potential losses, or our level of coverage may not continue to be available in the future or, if available, may be available only at unacceptable cost or with unacceptable terms. We also do not maintain coverage for certain catastrophic events like hurricanes and earthquakes because the cost of such insurance is deemed by management to be higher than the risk of loss due to the location of our properties. In most cases, we have to renew our insurance policies on an annual basis and negotiate acceptable terms for coverage, exposing us to the volatility of the
insurance markets, including the possibility of rate increases. In addition, a reduction of the number of insurance providers or the unwillingness of existing insurance providers to write insurance for multifamily properties may reduce the potential availability and/or cost for obtaining insurance on our properties. Any material increases in insurance rates or decrease in available coverage in the future could adversely affect our results of operations.
Changes in federal or state laws and regulations relating to climate change could result in increased costs to our business, including capital expenditures to improve the energy efficiency of our existing communities or new development communities without a corresponding increase in revenue. Among other things, “green” building codes may seek to reduce emissions through the imposition of standards for design, construction materials, water and energy usage and efficiency and waste management. The imposition of such requirements in the future, including the imposition of new energy efficiency standards or requirements relating to resistance to inclement weather, could increase the costs of maintaining or improving our properties without a corresponding increase in revenue, thereby having an adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operation. The impact of climate change also may increase the cost of, or make unavailable, property insurance or other hazard insurance on terms we find acceptable or necessary to adequately protect our properties.
Multifamily residential properties may be subject to rent stabilization regulations, now or in the future, which limit our ability to raise rents above specified maximum amounts and could give rise to claims by residents that their rents exceed such specified maximum amounts. Rent control or rent stabilization laws and other regulatory restrictions may limit our ability to increase rents and pass through new or increased operating costs to our residents. There has been a recent increase in municipalities and other local governments, including those in which we own properties, considering or being urged by advocacy groups to consider rent control or rent stabilization laws and regulations or take other actions which could limit our ability to raise rents based solely on market conditions. These initiatives and any other future enactments of rent control or rent stabilization laws or other laws regulating multifamily housing, as well as any lawsuits against us arising from such rent control or other laws, may reduce rental revenues or increase operating costs. Such laws and regulations limit our ability to charge market rents, increase rents, evict residents or recover increases in our operating expenses and could reduce the value of our multifamily properties or make it more difficult for us to dispose of properties in certain circumstances. Expenses associated with our investment in these multifamily properties, such as debt service, real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs, are generally not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in rental income from the community. Furthermore, such regulations may negatively impact our ability to attract higher-paying residents to such multifamily properties.
Competition may negatively impact our earnings. We compete with many kinds of institutions, including other REITs, private partnerships, individuals, pension funds, and banks in attracting residents and finding investment opportunities. Many of these institutions are active in the markets in which we invest and have greater financial and other resources than we do, including access to capital on more favorable terms. Our apartment communities compete directly with other multifamily apartment communities, single-family homes, condominiums, and other short-term rentals.
Short-term leases could expose us to the effects of declining market rents. Our apartment leases are generally for a term of 1812 months or less. Because these leases generally allow residents to leave at the expiration of the lease term without penalty, our rental revenues are impacted by declines in market rents more quickly than if our leases were for longer terms.
Because real estate investments are relatively illiquid and various other factors limit our ability to dispose of assets, we may not be able to sell properties when appropriate. We may have limited ability to change our portfolio of properties quickly in response to our strategic plan and changes in economic or other conditions, and the prohibitions under the federal income tax laws on REITs holding property for sale and related regulations may affect our ability to sell properties. Under certain circumstances, the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") imposes penalties on a REIT that sells property held for less than two years and limits the number of properties it can sell in a given year. Our ability to dispose of assets also may be limited by constraints on our ability to use disposition proceeds to make acquisitions on financially attractive terms. Some of our properties were acquired using limited partnership units of IRET Properties,Centerspace, LP, our operating partnership, and are subject to certain tax-protection agreements that restrict our ability to sell these properties in transactions that would create current taxable income to the former owners. As a result, we are motivated to structure the sale of these assets as tax-free exchanges, the requirements of which are technical and may be difficult to achieve.
Inability to manage growth effectively may adversely affect our operating results. We have experienced significant growth at various times in the past and may do so in the future, principally through the acquisition of additional real estate properties. Effective management of rapid growth presents challenges, including:
•the need to expand our management team and staff;
•the need to enhance internal operating systems and controls; and
•the ability to consistently achieve targeted returns on individual properties.
We may not be able to maintain similar rates of growth in the future or manage our growth effectively.
Adverse changes in taxes and other laws may affect our liabilities relating to our properties and operations. Increases in real estate taxes, including recent property tax increases in several of the markets in which we operate, and service and transfer taxes may adversely affect our cash available for distributions and our ability to pay amounts due onservice our debt. Similarly, changes in laws that increase the potential liability for environmental conditions or that affect development, construction, and safety requirements may result in significant unanticipated costs. Future enactment of rent control or rent stabilization laws or other laws regulating apartment communities may reduce rental revenues or increase operating costs. See “Multifamily residential properties may be subject to rent stabilization regulations, now or in the future, which limit our ability to raise rents above specified maximum amounts and could give rise to claims by residents that their rents exceed such specified maximum amounts.” The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 may also increase our tax burden. See “The excise tax included in the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 may hinder our ability to repurchase common shares or decrease the value of our securities following a business combination.”
We may be unable to retain or attract qualified management. We are dependent upon our senior officers for essentially all aspects of our business operations. Our senior officers have experience in the real estate industry, and the loss of them would likely have a materialsignificant adverse effect on our operations and could adversely impact our relationships with lenders and industry personnel. We do not have employment contracts with any of our senior officers. As a result, any senior officer may terminate his or her relationship with us at any time, without providing advance notice. If we fail to effectively manage a transition to new personnel, or if we fail to attract and retain qualified and experienced personnel on acceptable terms, it could adversely affect our business.
We may not be able to attract and retain qualified employees. Strong economic growth in recent years has created a tight labor market in many of the markets in which we operate, and we are dependent on employees at our apartment communities to provide attractive homes for our residents. Further, inflation may necessitate increasing employee wages and salaries in order to retain our employees. The loss of key personnel at these apartment communities, or the inability or cost of replacing such personnel at such communities, could have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations.
We face risks associated with security breaches through cyber-attacks, cyber intrusions, or otherwise, which could pose a risk to our systems, networks, and services. We face risks associated with security breaches or disruptions, whether through cyber-attacks or cyber intrusions over the Internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to emails, or persons inside our organization. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber-attacks or cyber intrusion, including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity, and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions around the world have increased. In the normal course of business, we and our service providers (including service providers engaged in providing web hosting, property management, leasing, accounting and/or payroll software/services) collect and retain certain personal information provided by our residents, employees, and vendors. We also rely extensively on computer systems to process transactions and manage our business. While we and our service providers employ a variety of data security measures to protect confidential information on our systems and periodically review and improve our data security measures, we cannot provide assurance that we or our service providers will be able to prevent unauthorized access to this personal information, that our efforts to maintain the security and integrity of the information that we and our service providers collect will be effective, or that attempted security breaches or disruptions would not be successful or damaging. Even the most well-protected information, networks, systems, and facilities remain potentially vulnerable because the techniques used in such attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target. In some cases, these breaches are designed not to be detected and, in fact, may not be detected. Accordingly, we and our service providers may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures, thereby making it impossible to entirely mitigate this risk. The risk of a breach or security failure, particularly through cyber-attacks or cyber-intrusion, has generally increased due to the rise in new technologies and the increased sophistication and activities of the perpetrators of attempted attacks and intrusions. A security breach or other significant disruption involving computer networks and related systems could cause substantial costs and other negative effects, including litigation, remediation costs, costs to deploy additional protection strategies, compromising of confidential information, and reputational damage adversely affecting investor confidence.
The costs of mitigating cybersecurity risks are significant and are likely to increase in the future. These costs include, but are not limited to, retaining services of cybersecurity providers, compliance costs arising out of existing and future cybersecurity, data protection, privacy laws, regulations, and related reporting obligations, and costs related to maintaining data backups and other damage-mitigation services.
We previously suffered a ransomware attack on our information technology systems. The incident did not have a material impact on our business, operations or financial results. However, notwithstanding every measure we take to address cybersecurity matters, and although we have not experienced any material losses relating to any cyber-attack, we cannot assure you that we will not suffer losses related to cyber-attacks in the future.
We may be responsible for potential liabilities under environmental laws. Under various federal, state, and local laws, ordinances and regulations, we, as a current or previous owner or operator of real estate, may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances in, on, around, or under that property. These laws may impose liability without regard to whether we knew of, or were responsible for, the presence of the hazardous or toxic substances. The presence of these substances, or the failure to properly remediate any property containing these substances, may adversely affect our ability to sell or rent the affected property or to borrow funds using the property as collateral. In arranging for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances, we also may be liable for the costs of removal of, or remediation of, these substances at that disposal or treatment facility, whether or not we own or operate the facility. In connection with our current or former ownership (direct or indirect), operation, management, development, and/or control of real properties, we may be potentially liable for removal or remediation costs with respect to hazardous or toxic substances at those properties, as well as certain other costs, including governmental fines
and claims for injuries to persons and property. Although we are not aware of any such claims associated with our existing properties that would have a materialsignificant adverse effect on our business, potential future costs and damage claims may be substantial and could exceed any insurance coverage we may have for such events or such coverage may not exist. The presence of such substances, or the failure to properly remediate any such impacts, may adversely affect our ability to borrow against, develop, sell, or rent the affected property. Some environmental laws create or allow a government agency to impose a lien on the impacted property in favor of the government for damages and costs it incurs as a result of responding to hazardous or toxic substances.
Environmental laws also govern the presence, maintenance, and removal of asbestos, and require that owners or operators of buildings containing asbestos properly manage and maintain the asbestos; notify and train those who may come into contact with asbestos; and undertake special precautions if asbestos would be disturbed during renovation or demolition of a building. Indoor air quality issues may also necessitate special investigation and remediation. These air quality issues can result from inadequate ventilation, chemical contaminants from indoor or outdoor sources, or biological contaminants such as molds, pollen, viruses and bacteria. Asbestos or air quality remediation programs could be costly, necessitate the temporary relocation of some or all of the property’s residents, or require rehabilitation of an affected property.
It is generally our policy to obtain a Phase I environmental study on each property that we seek to acquire. A Phase I environmental study generally includes a visual inspection of the property and the surrounding areas, an examination of current and historical uses of the property and the surrounding areas, and a review of relevant state and federal documents but does not involve invasive techniques such as soil and ground water sampling. If the Phase I indicates any possible environmental problems, our policy is to order a Phase II study, which involves testing the soil and ground water for actual hazardous substances. However, Phase I and Phase II environmental studies, or any other environmental studies undertaken with respect to any of our current or future properties, may not reveal the full extent of potential environmental liabilities. We currently do not carry insurance for environmental liabilities.
Expanding social media usage could present new risks. The use of social media could cause us to suffer broad reputational damage. Negative posts or comments about us through social media, whether by residents or prospective residents, could damage our reputation or that of our apartment communities, whether or not such claims or posts are valid, which in turn could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Similarly, disclosure of any non-public sensitive information relating to our business or our residents or prospective residents could damage our reputation, our business, or our results of operations. The continuing evolution of social media will present us with new and ongoing challenges and risks.
Litigation risks could affect our business. As a publicly traded owner, manager, and developer of apartment communities, we may incur liability based on various conditions at our properties and the buildings thereon. In the past, we have been, and in the future may become, involved in legal proceedings, including consumer, employment, tort, or commercial litigation, any of which if decided adversely to us or settled by us and not adequately covered by insurance, could result in liability that could be material to our results of operations.
Risks related to properties under development, redevelopment, or newly developed properties may adversely affect our financial performance. We may be unable to obtain, or may suffer delays in obtaining, necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy, and other required governmental permits and authorizations, which could lead to increased costs or abandonment of projects. We may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms, or at all, and we may not be able to complete lease-up of a property on schedule. The resulting time required for development, redevelopment, and lease-up means that we may have to wait years for significant cash returns.
Complying with zoning and permitting law may affect our acquisition, redevelopment, and development costs. We face risks associated with zoning and permitting of our communities, the majority of which are governed by municipal, county, and state regulations. We may be liable for costs associated with bringing communities into compliance and additionally may face costs or delays when seeking approvals for redevelopment or development projects within our portfolio. Some regulations related to zoning or permitting allow governmental entities to discontinue operations if violations are left uncured, which would significantly impact our business. We are not aware of any non-compliance at our communities that would have a significant adverse effect on our business.
Future cash flows may not be sufficient to ensure recoverability of the carrying value of our real estate assets. We periodically evaluate the recoverability of the carrying value of our real estate assets under United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Factors considered in evaluating impairment of our real estate assets held for investment include recurring net operating losses and other significant adverse changes in general market conditions that are considered permanent in nature. Generally, a real estate asset held for investment is not considered impaired if the estimated undiscounted future cash flows of the asset over its estimated holding period are in excess of the asset’s net book value at the balance sheet date. Assumptions used to estimate annual and residual cash flow and the estimated holding period of these assets require the judgment of management.
Complying with laws benefiting disabled persons or other safety regulations and requirements may affect our costs and investment strategies. Federal, state, and local laws and regulations designed to improve disabled persons’ access to and use of buildings, including the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, may require modifications to, or restrict renovations of, existing buildings that may require unexpected expenditures. These laws and regulations may require that structural features be added to buildings under construction. Legislation or regulations that may be adopted in the future may impose further burdens or restrictions on us with respect to improved access to, and use of these buildings by, disabled persons. Noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines by government authorities or the award of damages to private litigants. The costs of complying
with these laws and regulations may be substantial, and limits or restrictions on construction, or the completion of required renovations, may limit the implementation of our investment strategy or reduce overall returns on our investments.
Risks related to joint ventures may adversely affect our financial performance and results of operations. We have entered into, and may continue in the future to enter into, partnerships or joint ventures with other persons or entities. Joint venture investments involve risks that may not be present with other methods of ownership, based on the financial condition and business interests of our partners, which are beyond our control and which may conflict with our interests..interests.
In some instances, we and/or our partner may have the right to trigger a buy-sell arrangement, which could cause us to sell our interest, or acquire our partner’s interest, at a time when we otherwise would not have initiated such a transaction. Our ability to acquire our partner’s interest may be limited if we do not have sufficient cash, available borrowing capacity, or other capital resources. In such event, we may be forced to sell our interest in the joint venture when we would otherwise prefer to retain it. Joint ventures may require us to share decision-making authority with our partners, which could limit our ability to control the properties in the joint ventures. Even when we have a controlling interest, certain major decisions may require partner approval, such as the sale, acquisition, or financing of a property.
Actual or threatened terrorist attacks may adversely affect our business. Actual or threatened terrorist attacks and other acts of war or violence could adversely affect our business. Attacks that directly impact one or more of our apartment communities could significantly affect our ability to operate these communities, thereby impairing our ability to achieve our expected results. Our insurance may not adequately cover all losses from a terrorist attack, and the ongoing effects of any terrorist attacks or threatened terrorist attacks could adversely affect the U.S. economy generally and our business in particular.
Potential changes to the financial condition of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and in government support for apartment communities may adversely affect our business. Historically, we have depended on the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) to provide financing for certain apartment communities. Although Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have a mandate to support multifamily housing through their financing activities, there are current government proposals relating to the future of agency mortgage finance in the U.S. that could involve the phase-out of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Although we believe that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will continue to provide liquidity to the multifamily sector, anyAny phase-out of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, change in their mandate, or reduction in government support for apartment communities generally could result in adverse changes to interest rates, capital availability, development of additional apartment communities, and the value of these communities.
Employee theft or fraud could result in loss. Certain employees have access to, or signature authority with respect to, our bank accounts or assets, which exposes us to the risk of fraud or theft. Certain employees also have access to key information technology (“IT”) infrastructure and to resident and other information that may be commercially valuable. If any employee were to compromise our IT systems, or misappropriate resident or other information, we could incur losses, including potentially significant financial or reputational harm. We may not have insurance that covers any losses in full or covers losses from particular criminal acts.
Risks Related to Our Indebtedness and Financings
Our inability to renew, repay, or refinance our debt may result in losses. We incur a significant amount of debt in the ordinary course of our business and in connection with acquisitions of real properties. Because we have a limited ability to retain earnings as a result of the REIT distribution requirements, we will generally be required to refinance debt that matures with additional debt or equity. We are subject to the normal risks associated with debt financing, including the risks that:
•our cash flow will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest;interest, particularly if net operating income is reduced significantly due to the effects of the uncertain global macroeconomic and political conditions including inflation, price volatility and the COVID-19 pandemic;
•we will not be able to renew, refinance, or repay our indebtedness when due; and
•the terms of any renewal or refinancing will beare at terms less favorable than the terms of our current indebtedness.
These risks increase when credit markets are tight.tight and interest rates are high, as they are currently. In general, when the credit markets are tight, we may encounter resistance from lenders when we seek financing or refinancing for properties or proposed acquisitions, and the terms of such financing or refinancing are likely to be less favorable to us than the terms of our current indebtedness.
We anticipate that we will need to refinance a significant portion of our outstanding debt as it matures. We cannot guarantee that any refinancing of debt with other debt will be possible on terms that are favorable or acceptable to us. If we cannot refinance, extend, or pay principal payments due at maturity with the proceeds of other capital transactions, our cash flows may not be sufficient in all years to repay debt as it matures. If we are unable to refinance our indebtedness on acceptable terms, or at all, we may be forced to dispose of one or more properties on disadvantageous terms, which may result in losses. These losses could have a materialsignificant adverse effect on our business, our ability to make distributions to our shareholders, and our ability to pay amounts due
on our debt. If a property is mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness and we are unable to meet mortgage payments or refinance the debt at maturity, the mortgagor could foreclose upon the property, appoint a receiver, and receive an assignment of rents and leases or pursue other remedies, including taking ownership of the property, all with a consequent loss of revenues and asset value. Foreclosures also could affect our ability to obtain new debt and could create taxable income without accompanying cash proceeds, thereby hindering our ability to meet the REIT distribution requirements of the Code and impeding our ability to obtain financing for our other properties.
The restrictive terms of indebtednessRestrictive covenants in our debt agreements may cause acceleration of debt paymentslimit our operating and constrainfinancial flexibility, and our abilityinability to conduct certain transactionscomply with these covenants could have significant implications. AtOur indebtedness, which at December 31, 2019, we and our Operating Partnership had2022 totaled outstanding borrowings of approximately $651.5 million. Some$1.0 billion, contains a number of this indebtedness containssignificant restrictions and covenants. These restrictions and covenants include financial covenants relating to fixed charge coverage ratios, maximum secured debt, maintenance of unencumbered asset value, and total debt to gross assets,total asset value, among others. Some covenants present new constraints as we navigateothers and certain non-financial covenants. These may limit our ability to make future investments and dispositions, with respect to our ability to invest in certain markets, add incremental secured and recourse debt, and add overall leverage. IfOur ability to comply with these covenants will depend on our future performance, which may be affected by events beyond our control. Our failure to comply with these covenants would be an event of default. An event of default occurs, our lenders may increase rates or declare borrowings under the loanterms of our indebtedness would permit the lenders to accelerate indebtedness under effected agreements, which would include agreements that contain cross-acceleration provisions with respect to be due and payable immediately, which could have an adverse effect on our ability to make distributions to our shareholders and pay amounts due on our debt.other indebtedness.
Rising interest rates may affect our cost of capital and financing activities. The potential for rising interest rates could limit our ability to refinance portions of our fixed-rate indebtedness when it matures and would increase our interest costs. We also have an unsecured credit facility and term loan that bears interest at variable rates based on amounts drawn. As a result, any increase in interest rates could increase our interest expense on our variable rate debt, increase our interest rates when refinancing fixed-rate debt, increase the cost of issuing new debt, and reduce the cash available for distribution to shareholders.
Interest rate hedging arrangements may result in losses. From time to time, we use interest rate swaps and other hedging instruments to manage our interest rate risks. Although these arrangements may partially protect us against rising interest rates, they also may reduce the benefits to us if interest rates decline. If a hedging arrangement is not indexed to the same rate as the indebtedness that is hedged, we may be exposed to losses to the extent that the rate governing the indebtedness and the rate governing the hedging arrangement change independently of each other, and nonperformance by the other party to the hedging arrangement also may subject us to increased credit risks. In order to minimize any counterparty credit risk, we enter into hedging arrangements only with investment grade financial institutions.
Potential changesChanges to LIBOR could affect our financing covenants. LIBORLondon Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) has been used as a primary benchmark for short-term interest rates, including under certain of our credit facility. Daily LIBOR interest rates have been published since January 1, 1986 and have become deeply entrenched into the global financial markets. Post-financial crisis, regulation has significantly reduced bank appetite to issue commercial paper and wholesale deposits, which means there is a very low volume of transactions upon which banks can base their LIBOR submissions. As a result, central banks around the world, including the Federal Reserve, have commissioned working groups of market participants and official sector representatives with the goal of finding suitable replacements for LIBOR based on observable market transactions. It is expected a transition away from the widespread use of LIBOR to alternative rates will occur over the course of the next few years.facilities. The U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), which regulates LIBOR, ceased providing the one-week and two-month U.S. dollar LIBOR settings and all non-U.S. dollar LIBOR settings as of January 1, 2022. The ICE Benchmark Administration, in its capacity as administrator of
USD LIBOR, has announced it plans to cease providing the remaining U.S. dollar LIBOR settings immediately after June 30, 2023. It is unclear whether LIBOR will continue to be published after such dates.
The Alternative References Rates Committee, a steering committee comprised of large U.S. financial institutions, has commitmentsproposed replacing USD LIBOR with a new index calculated by short-term repurchase agreements - Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR). The market transition away from panel banksLIBOR and toward SOFR or another alternate reference rate has been and is expected to continue to contributebe complicated and to include the development of term and credit adjustments to accommodate differences between LIBOR throughand SOFR or any other alternate reference rate as well as adjustments to other market conventions. During the end of 2021, but it will not use its powersmarket transition away from the remaining LIBOR settings, LIBOR may experience increased volatility, and the overnight Treasury repurchase market underlying SOFR may also experience disruptions from time to compel contributions beyond such date. Accordingly, there is considerable uncertainty regarding the publication of such rates beyond 2021. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York and various other authorities have commenced the publication of reforms and actions relating to alternatives to U.S. dollar LIBOR.time, which may result in unexpected fluctuations in SOFR. Although the full impact of such reforms and actions, together with any transition away from LIBOR and toward SOFR, including the potential or actual discontinuance of LIBOR publication, remains unclear, these changes may have a material adverse impact on the availability of financing. In addition, as it relates to future and derivatives contracts, ISDA master agreements between counterparties may need to be amended or replaced, including derivative contracts in which we are invested. There can be no assurance that aSOFR or another new global standard will be agreed upon or that any new rate will be reflective of the original interest rate and credit risk included within LIBOR, any of which could have a materialsignificant adverse effect on our financing costs as well as our business and results of operations.
Risks Related to Our Shares
Our stock price may fluctuate significantly. The market price and trading volume of our common shares are subject to fluctuation due to general market conditions, the risks discussed in this report, and several other factors, including the following:
•regional, national, and global economic and business conditions;
•actual or anticipated changes in our quarterly operating results or dividends;
•changes in our estimates of funds from operations, core funds from operations, or earnings;
•investor interest in our property portfolio;
•the market perception and performance of REITs in general and apartment REITs in particular;
•the market perception or trading volume of REITs relative to other investment opportunities;
•the market perception of our financial condition, performance, distributions, and growth potential;
•general stock and bond market conditions, including potential increases in interest rates that could lead investors to seek higher annual yields from dividends;
•shifts in our investor base to a higher concentration of passive investors, including exchange-traded funds and index funds, that could have an adverse effect on our ability to communicate with our shareholders;
•our ability to access capital markets, which could impact our cost of capital;
•a change in our credit rating or analyst ratings;
•changes in minimum dividend requirements;
•terrorism or other factors that adversely impact the markets in which our stock trades; and
•changes in tax laws or government regulations that could affect the attractiveness of our stock.
Rising interest rates could have an adverse effect on our share price. If interestInterest rates rose significantly in 2022 and may continue to rise. This increase, thisand any future increase, could cause holders of our common shares and other investors to seek higher dividends on our shares or higher yields through other investments, which could adversely affect the market price of our shares.
Low trading volume on the NYSE may prevent the timely sale or resale of our shares. Although our common shares are listed on the NYSE, the daily trading volume of our shares may be lower than the trading volume for other companies. As a result of lower trading volume, an owner of our common shares may encounter difficulty in selling our shares in a timely manner and may incur a substantial loss.
Corporate social responsibility, specifically related to ESG, may impose additional costs and expose us to new risks. ESG evaluations are highly important to many investors and stakeholders. Many investors use ESG factors to guide their investment decisions. Many investment funds focus on positive ESG business practices and sustainability scores when making investments and may consider a company’s sustainability efforts and/or score when making an investment decision. In addition, investors, particularly institutional investors, may use ESG or sustainability scores issued by proxy advisory firms or other third parties to benchmark companies against their peers. Although we make ESG disclosures and undertakes sustainability and diversity initiatives, there can be no assurance that we will score highly on ESG matters in the future. The criteria by which companies are rated may change, which could cause us to perform differently or worse than we have in the past. We may face reputational
damage in the event our corporate responsibility procedures or standards do not meet the standards set by various constituencies. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could have an adverse effect on our reputation, the price of our stock and our business, financial condition and results of operations, including increased capital expenditures and operating expenses.
Failure to generate sufficient revenue or other liquidity needs could limit cash flow available for distributions to our shareholders. A decrease in rental revenue, an increase in funding to support our acquisition and development needs, or other unmet liquidity needs could have an adverse effect on our ability to pay distributions to our shareholders or the Operating Partnership'sPartnership’s unitholders.
Payment of distributions on our common shares is not guaranteed. Our Board of Trustees must approve any stock distributions and may elect at any time, or from time to time, and for an indefinite duration, to reduce or not pay the distributions payable on our common shares. Our Board may reduce distributions for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to the following:
•operating and financial results cannot support the current distribution payment;
•unanticipated costs, capital requirements, or cash requirements;
•annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code;
•a conclusion that the payment of distributions would cause us to breach the terms of certain agreements or contracts, such as financial ratio covenants in our debt financing documents; or
•other factors the Board of Trustees may consider relevant.
Our future growth depends, in part, on our ability to raise additional equity capital, which willcould have the effect of diluting the interests of our common shareholders. Our future growth depends upon, among other things, our ability to raise equity capital and issue limited partnership units of IRET Properties.Centerspace, LP. Sales of substantial amounts of our common or preferred shares in the public market, or the perception that such sales or issuances might occur, may dilute the interests of the current common shareholders and could adversely affect the market price of our common shares. In addition, as a REIT, we are required to make distributions to holders of our equity securities of at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined before a deduction for dividends paid and excluding any net capital gain. This limits our ability to retain cash or earnings to fund future growth and makes us more dependent on raising funds through other means, which may include raising additional equity capital.
We may issue additional classes or series of our shares of beneficial interest with rights and preferences that are superior to the rights and preferences of our common shares. Our Declaration of Trust provides for an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest. Without the approval of our common shareholders, our Board of Trustees may establish additional classes or series of our shares of beneficial interest, and such classes or series may have dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences, or other rights and preferences that are superior to the rights of the holders of our common shares. In that regard, in September 2017,2020, we filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC that
enables us to sell an undetermined number of equity and debt securities as defined in the prospectus, including under the 20192021 ATM Program. Future sales of common shares, preferred shares, or convertible debt securities may dilute current shareholders and could have an adverse impact on the market price of our common shares.
Any material weaknesses identified in our internal control over financial reporting could adversely affect our stock price. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires us to evaluate and report on our internal control over financial reporting. If we were to identify one or more material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, we could lose investor confidence in our financial reporting and results of operations, which in turn could have an adverse effect on our stock price.
Certain provisions of our Declaration of Trust may limit a change in control and deter a takeover. In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, among other things, our Declaration of Trust provides that any transaction that would result in our disqualification as a REIT under Section 856 of the Code will be void, including any transaction that would result in the following:
•less than 100 Persons owning our shares;
•our being “closely held” within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code; or
•50% or more of the fair market value of our shares being held by Persons other than “United States persons,” for federal income tax purposes.
If the transaction is not void, then the shares in violation of the foregoing conditions will automatically be exchanged for an equal number of excess shares, and these excess shares will be transferred to an excess share trustee for the exclusive benefit of the charitable beneficiaries named by our Board of Trustees. The Trust’s Declaration of Trust also provides a limit on a Person owning in excess of the ownership limit of 9.8%, in number or value, of the Trust’s outstanding shares, although the Board of
Trustees retains the ability to make exceptions to this ownership threshold. These limitations may have the effect of preventing a change in control or takeover of us by a third party, even if the change in control or takeover would be in the best interests of our shareholders.
Risks Related to Tax Matters
We may incur tax liabilities as a consequence of failingif we were to fail to qualify as a REIT, which could force us to borrow funds during unfavorable market conditions. We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code. Qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex Code provisions, including income, asset, and distribution tests, for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. Even a technical or inadvertent mistake could endanger our REIT status. The determination that we qualify as a REIT requires an ongoing analysis of various factual matters and circumstances, some of which may not be within our control. For example, in order to qualify as a REIT, at least 95% of our gross income in any year must come from certain passive sources that are itemized in the REIT tax laws, and we are prohibited from owning specified amounts of debt or equity securities of some issuers. Thus, to the extent revenues from non-qualifying sources, such as income from third-party management services, represent more than 5% of our gross income in any taxable year, we will not satisfy the 95% income test and may fail to qualify as a REIT, unless certain relief provisions contained in the Code apply. Even if relief provisions apply, however, a tax would be imposed with respect to excess net income. We are also required to make distributions to the holders of our securities of at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined before a deduction for dividends paid and excluding any net capital gain. To the extent that we satisfy the 90% test but distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income, we will be subject to corporate income tax on such undistributed income and could be subject to an additional 4% excise tax. Because we need to meet these tests to maintain our qualification as a REIT, it could cause us to have to forgo certain business opportunities and potentially require us to liquidate otherwise attractive investments. The fact that we hold substantially all of our assets (except for qualified REIT subsidiaries) through IRET Properties,Centerspace, LP, our operating partnership, and its subsidiaries, and our ongoing reliance on factual determinations, such as determinations related to the valuation of our assets, further complicates the application of the REIT requirements for us. If IRET PropertiesCenterspace, LP or one or more of our subsidiaries is determined to be taxable as a corporation, we may fail to qualify as a REIT. Either our failure to qualify as a REIT, for any reason, or the imposition of taxes on excess net income from non-qualifying sources, could adversely affect our business and our ability to make distributions to our shareholders and pay amounts due on our debt. New legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions could change the tax laws with respect to our qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of our qualification.
If we were to fail to qualify as a REIT, we would be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates, could be subject to increased state and local taxes and, unless entitled to relief under applicable statutory provisions, would be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which we lost our qualification, which would likely have a materialsignificant adverse effect on us, our ability to make distributions to our shareholders, and our ability to pay amounts due on our debt. This treatment would reduce funds available for investment or distributions to the holders of our securities due to the additional tax liability to us for the year or years involved, and we would no longer be able to deduct, and would not be required to make, distributions to our shareholders. To the extent that distributions to the holders of our securities had been made in anticipation of qualifying as a REIT, we may need short-term debt or long-term debt or proceeds from asset sales or sales of common shares to fund required distributions as a result of differences in timing between the actual receipt of income and the recognition of income for federal income tax purposes, or the effect of non-deductible capital expenditures, the creation of reserves or required debt or amortization payments. The inability of our cash flows to cover our distribution requirements could have an adverse impact on our ability to raise short and long-term debt or sell equity securities in order to fund distributions required to maintain our REIT status.
Failure of our operating partnership to qualify as a partnership would result in corporate taxation and significantly reduce the amount of cash available for distribution. We believe that IRET Properties,Centerspace, LP, our operating partnership, qualifies as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. However, we can provide no assurance that the IRS will not challenge its status as a partnership for federal income tax purposes or that a court would not sustain such a challenge. If the IRS were to be successful in treating IRET PropertiesCenterspace, LP as an entity taxable as a corporation (such as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation), we would cease to qualify as a REIT because the value of our ownership interest in IRET PropertiesCenterspace, LP would exceed 5% of our assets and because we would be considered to hold more than 10% of the voting securities and value of the outstanding securities of another corporation. The imposition of a corporate tax on IRET PropertiesCenterspace, LP would significantly reduce the amount of cash available for distribution.
Certain provisions of our Declaration of Trust may limit achange in control and deter a takeover.In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, our Declaration of Trust provides that any transaction that would result in our disqualification as a REIT under Section 856 of the Code will be void, including any transaction that would result in the following:
less than 100 people owning our shares;
our being “closely held” within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code; or
50% or more of the fair market value of our shares being held by persons other than “United States persons.”
If the transaction is not void, then the shares in violation of the foregoing conditions will automatically be exchanged for an equal number of excess shares, and these excess shares will be transferred to an excess share trustee for the exclusive benefit of the charitable beneficiaries named by our Board of Trustees. The Trust's Declaration of Trust also provides a limit on a person owning in excess of the ownership limit of 9.8%, in number or value, of the Trust's outstanding shares, although the Board of Trustees retains the ability to make exceptions to this ownership threshold. These limitations may have the effect of preventing a change in control or takeover of us by a third party, even if the change in control or takeover would be in the best interests of our shareholders.
Legislative or regulatory actions affecting REITs could have an adverse effect on us or our shareholders. Changes to tax laws or regulations may adversely impact our shareholders and our business and financial results. The REIT rules are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process and by the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Treasury Department, which may result in revisions to regulations and interpretations as well as statutory changes.
In 2017, Congress passed tax legislation (the “2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act”) that significantly changed the U.S. federal income taxation of U.S. businesses and their owners, including REITs and their shareholders. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 also contained provisions that may reduce the relative competitive advantage of operating as a REIT. For example, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 lowered income tax rates on individuals and corporations, easing the burden of double taxation on corporate dividends and potentially causing the single level of taxation on REIT distributions to be relatively less attractive. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 also contains provisions allowing the expensing of capital expenditures, which could result in the bunching of taxable income and required distributions for REITs, and provisions further limiting the deductibility of interest expense, which could disrupt the real estate market. Changes made by the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that could affect our shareholders include the following:
reducing the individual U.S. federal income tax rates on ordinary income (with the highest rate being reduced from 39.6% to 37% for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026;
permanently eliminating the progressive corporate tax rate structure, including dividends we may distribute to our shareholders that are not designated as capital gains dividends or qualified dividend income, which will allow individuals, trusts, and estate to deduct up to 20% of such amounts for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026;
reducing the highest rate of withholding on distributions to non-U.S. shareholders that are treated as attributable to gains from the sale or exchange of U.S. real property interests from 35% to 21%;
limiting our deductions for net operating losses arising in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 to 80% of REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction); and
eliminating the corporate alternative minimum tax.
We cannot predict whether, when, or to what extent the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and any new U.S. federal tax laws, regulations, interpretations, or rulings will impact the real estate investment industry or REITs. Prospective investors are urged to consult their tax advisers regarding the effect of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and potential future changes to the federal tax laws of an investment in our shares or Units.
Dividends payable by REITs may be taxed at higher rates than dividends of non-REIT corporations, which could reduce the net cash received by our shareholders and may be detrimental to our ability to raise additional funds through any future sale of our stock. Dividends paid by REITs to U.S. shareholders that are individuals, trusts, or estates are generally not eligible for the reduced tax rate applicable to qualified dividends received from non-REIT corporations but, under the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, U.S. shareholders that are individuals, trusts, and estates generally may deduct 20% of ordinary dividends from a REIT (forcorporations. For taxable yearsyear beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026).2026, non-corporate taxpayers may deduct up to 20% of certain pass-through business income, including “qualified
REIT dividends” (generally, dividends received by a REIT shareholder that are not designated as capital gain dividends or qualified dividend income), subject to certain limitations, resulting in an effective maximum U.S. federal income tax rate of 29.6% on such income. Although this deduction reduces the effective tax rate applicable to certain dividends paid by REITs, such tax rate is still higher than the tax rate applicable to regular corporate qualified dividends. This may cause investors to view REIT investments as less attractive than investments in non-REIT corporations, which in turn may adversely affect the value of stock in REITs, including our stock. Investors should consult with their tax advisers regarding the U.S. tax consequences of an investment in our stock or Units.
We may face risks in connection with Section 1031 exchanges. From time to time, we dispose of properties in transactions intended to qualify as “like-kind exchanges” under Section 1031 of the Code. If a transaction intended to qualify as a Section 1031 exchange is later determined to be taxable, we may face adverse consequences, and if the laws applicable to such transactions are amended or repealed, we may not be able to dispose of properties on a tax-deferred basis. If we are unable to meet the technical requirements of a desired Section 1031 exchange, we may be required to make a special dividend payment to our shareholders if we are unable to mitigate the taxable gains realized. The failure to reinvest proceeds from sales of properties into tax-deferred exchanges could necessitate payments to unitholders with tax protection agreements.
We have tax protection agreements in place on thirty-seven properties. If these properties are sold in a taxable transaction, we must make the unitholders associated with these particular properties whole through the payment of their related tax. We dispose of properties in transactions intended to qualify as “like-kind exchanges” under Section 1031 of the Code whenever possible. If we are not able to satisfy all of the technical requirements of Section 1031, or if Section 1031 is repealed, selling a property with a tax protection agreement could trigger a material obligation to make the associated unitholders whole.
Complying with REIT requirements may force us to forgo otherwise attractive opportunities or liquidate otherwise attractive investments. To qualify and maintain our status as a REIT, we must satisfy certain requirements with respect to the character of our assets. If we fail to comply with these requirements at the end of any quarter, we must correct such failure within 30 days after the end of the quarter (by, possibly, selling assets notwithstanding their prospects as an investment) to avoid losing our REIT status. This could include potentially selling otherwise attractive assets or liquidating or foregoing otherwise attractive investments. These actions could reduce our income and amounts available for distribution to our shareholders.
Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may face other tax liabilities that reduce our cash flows. Even if we qualify as a REIT under the U.S. tax code, we may be subject to certain federal, state, and local taxes on our income and assets, including taxes on any undistributed income, tax on income from some activities conducted as a result of a foreclosure, and state or local income, property, and transfer taxes, such as mortgage recording taxes. Any of these taxes would decrease cash available for distribution to our shareholders.
The tax imposed on REITs engaging in prohibited transactions and our agreements entered into with certain contributors of our properties may limit our ability to engage in transactions that would be treated as sales for federal income tax purposes. The federal income tax provisions applicable to REITs provide that any gain realized by a REIT on the sale of property held as inventory or other property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business is treated as income from a “prohibited transaction” that is subject to a 100% penalty tax. Under current law, unless a sale of real property qualifies for a safe harbor, the question of whether the sale of a property constitutes the sale of property held primarily for sale to customers is generally a question of the facts and circumstances regarding a particular transaction. We may make sales that do not satisfy the requirements of the safe harbors, or the IRS may successfully assert that one or more of our sales are prohibited transactions and, as a result, we may be required to pay a penalty tax. To avert this penalty tax, we may hold some of our assets through a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”). While the TRS structure would allow the economic benefits of ownership to flow to us, a TRS is subject to tax on its income at the federal and state level. We have entered into agreements with certain contributors of our properties that contain limitations on our ability to dispose of certain properties in taxable transactions. The restrictions on taxable dispositions are effective for varying periods. Such agreements may require that we make a payment to the contributor in the event that we dispose of a covered property in a taxable sale during the restriction period.
Our ownership of TRSs is limited, and our transactions with TRSs will cause us to be subject to a 100% penalty tax on certain income or deductions if those transactions are not conducted on arm's-lengtharm’s-length terms. A REIT may own up to 100% of the stock of one or more TRSs. A TRS may hold assets and earn income that would not be qualifying assets or income if held or earned directly by a REIT. Both the subsidiary and the REIT must jointly elect to treat the subsidiary as a TRS. A corporation of which a TRS directly or indirectly owns more than 35% of the voting power or value of the stock will automatically be treated as a TRS. Overall, no more than 20% of the value of a REIT's assets may consist of stock or securities of one or more TRSs, and the TRS rules limit the deductibility of interest paid or accrued by a TRS to its parent REIT to assure that theOur TRS is subject to an appropriate level of corporate taxation. Theapplicable federal, state, and local income tax on any taxable income. TRS rules also impose a 100% excise tax on certain transactions between a TRS and its parent REIT that are not conducted on an arm’s-length basis.
Our TRS is subject to applicable federal, state, and local income tax on its taxable income, and its after-tax net income will be available for distribution to us but is not required to be distributed to us. We believe that the aggregate value of the stock and securities of our TRS is and will continue to be less than 20% of the value of our total assets (including our TRS stock and securities). We will continue to monitor the value of our investments in our TRS for the purpose of ensuring compliance with TRS ownership limitations. We will scrutinize all of our transactions with our TRS to ensure that they are entered into on arm's-lengtharm’s-length terms to avoid incurring the 100% excise tax described above. There can
Legislative or regulatory actions affecting REITs could have an adverse effect on us or our shareholders. Changes to tax laws or regulations may adversely impact our shareholders and our business and financial results. On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the "IRA"). The IRA includes numerous tax provisions that impact corporations, including
the implementation of a corporate alternative minimum tax as well as a 1% federal excise tax on certain stock repurchases and economically similar transactions.
REITs are excluded from the definition of an “applicable corporation” and therefore are not subject to the corporate alternative minimum tax. Additionally, the 1% excise tax specifically does not apply to stock repurchases by REITs. However, our taxable REIT subsidiaries operate as standalone corporations and therefore could be no assurance, however, that weadversely affected by the IRA. We will be ablecontinue to comply withanalyze and monitor the 20% limitation discussed above or to avoid application of the 100% exciseIRA to our business; however, the effect of these changes on the value of our assets, shares of our common stock or market conditions generally, is uncertain.
The REIT rules are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process and by the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Treasury Department, which may result in revisions to regulations and interpretations as well as statutory changes.
At any time, the U.S. federal income tax discussed above.laws governing REITs or the administrative and judicial interpretations of those laws may be amended. We cannot predict when or if any new U.S. federal income tax law, regulation or administrative and judicial interpretation, or any amendment to any existing U.S. federal income tax law, regulation or administrative or judicial interpretation, will be adopted, promulgated or become effective and any such law, regulation or interpretation may take effect retroactively. We cannot predict whether any of these proposed changes will become law, or the long-term effect of any future law changes on REITs and their shareholders generally. We and our shareholders could be adversely affected by any such change in, or any new, U.S. federal income tax law, regulation or administrative and judicial interpretation.

Communities
We are organized as a REIT under SectionSections 856-858 of the Code and are structured as an Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust (“UPREIT”),UPREIT, which allows us to accept the contribution of real estate to our Operating Partnership in exchange for OP Units. Our business is focused on the ownership, management, acquisition, redevelopment, and development of apartment communities, which we own and operate through our Operating Partnership. We are a fully integrated owner-operator of apartment communities.
Certain Lending Requirements
In certain instances, in connection with the financing of investment properties, the lender may require, as a condition of the loan, that the properties be owned by a “single asset entity.” Accordingly, we have organized a number of wholly ownedwholly-owned subsidiary entities for the purpose of holding title in an entity that complies with such lending conditions. All financial statements of these subsidiaries are consolidated into our financial statements.
Management and Leasing of Our Real Estate Assets
We conduct our corporate operations from offices in Minot, North Dakota and Minneapolis, Minnesota. The day-to-day management of our properties is generally carried out by our own employees. In certain markets where the amount of rentable square footage we own does not justify self-management, whenWhen properties acquired have effective pre-existing property management in place or when particular properties are, in our judgment, not attractive candidates for self-management, we may utilize third-party professional management companies for day-to-day management. However, all decisions relating to purchase, sale, insurance coverage, major capital improvements, annual operating budgets, and major renovations are made exclusively by our employees and implemented by the third-party management companies. Generally, our third-party management contracts are for terms of one year or less and provide for compensation ranging from 2.5% to 5.0% of gross rent collections and, typically, we may terminate these contracts upon 60 days or less notice for cause or upon the property manager’s failure to meet certain specified financial performance goals.
Summary of Communities Owned as of December 31, 20192022
The following table presents information regarding our 6984 apartment communities and three other properties held for investment, as well as unimproved land as of December 31, 2019.2022. We provide certain information on a same-store and non-same-store basis. Same-store communities are owned or in service for the entiretysubstantially all of the periods being compared, and, in the case of development properties, have achieved a target level of physical occupancy of 90%. On the first day of each calendar year, we determine the composition of our same-store pool for that year as well as adjust the previous year, which allows us to evaluate the performance of existing apartment communities. "Other"“Other” includes non-multifamily properties and non-multifamily components of mixed use properties. We own the following interests in real estate either through our wholly-owned subsidiaries or by ownership of a controlling interest in an
entity owning the real estate. We account for these interests on a consolidated basis. Additional information is included in Schedule III to our financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.Report.

(1) | Weighted average occupancy is defined as the percentage resulting from dividing actual rental revenue by scheduled rental revenue. Scheduled rental revenue represents the value of all homes, with occupied homes valued at contractual rental rates pursuant to leases and vacant homes valued at estimated market rents. When calculating actual rents for occupied homes and market rents for vacant homes, delinquencies and concessions are not taken into account. The currently offered effective rates on new leases at the community are used as the starting point in determination of the market rates of vacant homes. We believe that weighted average occupancy is a meaningful measure of occupancy because it considers the value of each vacant unit at is estimated market rate. Weighted average occupancy may not completely reflect short-term trends in physical occupancy, and our calculation of weighted average occupancy may not be comparable to that disclosed by other real estate companies. |

Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresNet operating income. Net Operating Incomeoperating income (“NOI”) is a non-GAAP financial measure which we define as total real estate revenues less property operating expenses, including real estate taxes, which is reconciled to operating income (loss) in. Refer to the table above.reconciliation of Operating Income (Loss) to Net Operating Income below. We believe that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for real estate because it provides a measure of operations that is unaffected by depreciation, amortization, financing costs, property management overhead,expenses, casualty losses, and general and administrative expense. NOI does not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss), net income (loss) available for common shareholders, or cash flow from operating activities as a measure of financial performance.
Throughout this Annual Report, on Form 10-K, we have provided certain information on a same-store and non-same-store basis. Same-store apartment communities are owned or in service for the entiretysubstantially all of the periods being compared and, in the case of development properties, have achieved a target level of physical occupancy of 90%. On the first day of each calendar year, we determine the composition of our same-store pool for that year as well as adjust the previous year, which allows us to evaluate the performance of existing apartment communities and their contribution to net income. Management believes that measuring performance on a same-store basis is useful to investors because it enables evaluation of how our communities are performing year-over-year. Management uses this measure to assess whether or not it has been successful in increasing NOI, renewing the leases of existing residents, controlling operating costs, and making prudent capital improvements. The discussion below focuses on the main factors affecting real estate revenue and real estate expenses from same-store apartment communities because changes from one year to another in real estate revenue and expenses from non-same-store communities are due to the addition of those properties to or from our real estate portfolio, and accordingly provide less useful information for evaluating the ongoing operational performance of our real estate portfolio.
For the comparison of the twelve months ended December 31, 20192022 and 2018, 632021, 60 apartment communities were classified as same-store and six24 apartment communities were non-same-store. See Item 2 - Properties for the list of communities classified as same-store and non-same-store. Sold communities and communities designated as heldare included in “Dispositions” for the periods prior to the sale, are in "Other."

Scheduled rental revenue represents the value of all homes, with occupied homes valued at contractual rental rates pursuant to leases and vacant homes valued at estimated market rents. When calculating actual rents for occupied homes and market rents for vacant homes, delinquencies and concessions are not taken into account. The currently offered effective rates on new leases at the community are used as the starting point in determination of the market rates of vacant homes. We believe that weighted average occupancy is a meaningful measure of occupancy because it considers the value of each vacant unit at its estimated market rate. Weighted average occupancy may not completely reflect short-term trends in physical occupancy, and our calculation of weighted average occupancy may not be comparable to that disclosed by other real estate companies.

Same-store analysis. Revenue from same-store communities increased by 10.0% or $18.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2018. Six non-same-store apartment communities contributed $9.8 million to the increase, offset by a $9.3 million decrease from dispositions and other properties. Revenue from same-store communities increased by 3.7% or $4.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2019,2022, compared to the same period in the prior year. Approximately 3.0% of the increase was attributable to growth in average rental revenue. Approximately 0.7%9.8% of the increase was due to higher average monthly revenue per occupied home and 0.2% from an increase in occupancy as weighted average occupancy
increased from 93.6%94.3% to 94.3%94.5% for the years ended December 31, 20182021 and 2019,2022, respectively.
Property operating expenses, including real estate taxes. Total property operating expenses, including real estate taxes, increased by 2.9% to $78.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to $76.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2018. A total of $3.5 million of the increase was attributable to non-same-store apartment communities but was
partially offset by a decrease of $3.4 million from other properties, primarily due to dispositions. Property operating expenses at same-store communities increased by 3.8%11.6% or $2.1$8.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2019,2022, compared to the same period in the prior year. Insurance and real estate taxes comprised $1.1 million and $263,000 of the increase, respectively, and rose by a combined 8.1%. The increase in insurance expense was due to a $324,000 adjustment in the prior year from the favorable resolution of insurance claims and $478,000 of higher deductible costs, with the remainder from an increase in premiums. Controllable operatingAt same-store communities, controllable expenses which(which exclude insurance and real estate taxes,taxes), increased by $697,000 or 1.8%,$6.7 million, primarily drivendue to $2.1 million in rising utilities costs, $1.7 million in compensation costs, and $2.4 million in repairs and maintenance and turnover costs. Non-controllable expenses at same-store communities increased by snow removal$1.7 million primarily due to insurance premiums and other maintenance costs.
Net operating income. deductibles on claims. Same-store NOI increased by 3.0%$9.6 million to $107.4$117.0 million in for the year ended December 31, 20192022 compared to $104.3$107.3 million in the same period in the prior year.
Non-same-store analysis. Revenue non-same-store apartment communities increased by $39.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2018.2022, compared to the same period in the prior year. Property operating expenses from non-same-store apartment communities increased by $20.0 million. Net operating income from non-same-store communities increased by $19.4 million. The increase in revenue, property operating expenses, and NOI from non-same-store communities is primarily due to the addition of apartment communities in the latter part of 2021 and throughout 2022.
Other and dispositions analysis. Revenue from other, which encompasses our commercial and mixed use activity, increased by 33.0% or $935,000 while revenue from dispositions decreased by $3.3 million. Property operating expenses from other increased by 7.4% or $83,000 while property operating expenses from disposition decreased by $1.6 million due to sold properties. Increases in revenue and property operating expenses from other is primarily due to the addition of apartment communities with commercial space.
Property management expense. Property management expense, consisting of property management overhead and property management fees paid to third parties was $6.2increased by 13.1% to $9.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2019 and $5.52022, compared to $8.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2018.2021. The increase was primarily driven by technology initiatives anddue to compensation costs including severance.due to the filling of open positions and additional staffing to support the acquisition of communities in the latter half of the prior year and the current year.
Casualty gain (loss). Casualty loss increased by 36.9% to $1.1$1.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2019,2022, compared to $815,000$344,000 in the year ended December 31, 2018. During the year ended December 31, 2019, many of our markets were impacted by a series of adverse weather-related events. These events included extreme cold and record-setting snowfall, which caused excess ice and snow accumulation, resulting in water damage to some of our apartment communities. Substantially all of the damage from these weather-related events will be covered by insurance. We recorded casualty losses of $641,000 during the year, representing the aggregate annual stop loss under our insurance coverage.2021. The remaining increase is a result of uninsured water intrusion damage at one apartment community and uninsured water damagewas primarily due to mechanical failure at another apartment community. In the same period ofincreased claims activity over the prior year we recorded $50,000 in aggregate stop loss under our insurance coverage as a result of favorable claims experience.period and more apartment communities over the comparable period.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreasedincreased by 4.3%14.2% to $74.3$105.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2019,2022, compared to $77.6$92.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2018. This decrease was2021, attributable to an increase of $15.7 million from non-same-store properties primarily due to an increase in the number of apartment communities being depreciated, offset by decreases of $1.5 million and $1.4 million at same-store communities and sold properties, certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized, and an adjustment in the prior year due to shortening the estimated useful life of a non-multifamily property, which elevated depreciation expense in the prior year.
Impairment of real estate investments. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we had no impairment losses, reflecting the overall improvement in the quality of our current portfolio, compared to $19.0 million in the same period of the prior year. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information on impairments. respectively.
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses decreasedincreased by 2.9%8.0% to $14.5$17.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2019,2022, compared to $14.9$16.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2018,2021, primarily attributable to decreases of $737,000$1.3 million in legal fees related to our pursuit of a recovery on a construction defect claim, $608,000 in severance-related costs and $296,000 in real estate tax on sold parcels of land. These decreases were partiallyincreased compensation costs, offset by an increase of $871,000 in compensation costs as result of a decrease in open positions and higher incentive compensation related to expanding the participant pool in the long-term incentive plan.
Operating income (loss). Operating income increased by 183.9% to $11.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to a loss of $13.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2018.
Interest expense. Interest expense decreased 6.7% to $30.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $32.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to the replacement of maturing debt with lower rate debt.
Loss on extinguishment of debt. We recorded loss on extinguishment of debt in the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 of $2.4 million and $678,000, respectively, primarily due to prepayment penalties associated with the disposal of assets and the write-off of unamortized loantechnology implementation costs.
Interest and other income. We recorded interest and other income in the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 of $2.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively.
Gain (loss) on sale of real estate and other investments. In the years ended December 31, 20192022 and 2018,2021, we recorded gains on sale of real estate and other investments in continuing operations of $97.6$41,000 and $27.5 million, and $12.0 million, respectively, primarily related to increased dispositions in 2019.
Gain (loss) on litigation settlement. In the year ended December 31, 2019, we recorded a gain on litigation settlement of $6.6 million from the settlement of a construction defect claim.respectively.
Income (loss) from discontinued operations.Operating income. We had noOperating income from discontinued operations in the year ended December 31, 2019 compareddecreased by 53.6% to $14.7$13.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2018.
Acquisitions and Dispositions
We added $171.42022, compared to $29.9 million of new real estate to our portfolio duringin the year ended December 31, 2019. We continued our portfolio transformation by disposing of our portfolios2021.
Interest expense. Interest expense increased 12.6% to $32.8 million in Topeka, Kansas, Sioux Falls, South Dakota, Sioux City, Iowa, and certain communities in Bismarck, North Dakota. We sold 21 apartment communities, two commercial properties, and three parcels of land for an aggregate sale price of $203.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2019. See Note 9 of the notes2022, compared to consolidated financial statements$29.1 million in this Annual Report for a table detailing our acquisitions and dispositions for the year ended December 31, 2019, for2021, primarily due to maintaining larger debt balances compared to the transitionsame period of the prior year with the acquisition activity, including the addition of a $100.0 million term loan in November, combined with rising interest rates.
Interest and other income (loss). Interest and other income (loss) increased to income of $1.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2018,2022, compared to a loss of $2.9 million in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to a $5.4 million loss related to the termination of interest rate swaps that occurred in the prior year, offset by a $560,000 gain on the mark-to-market adjustment for an interest rate swap prior to termination.
Funds from Operations and for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018.
Core Funds From Operations
We believe that Funds from Operations (“FFO”), which is a non-GAAP standard supplemental measure for equity real estate investment trusts, is helpful to investors in understanding our operating performance, primarily because its calculation does not assume the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, as implied by the historical cost convention of GAAP and the recording of depreciation.
We use the definition of Funds from Operations ("FFO")FFO adopted by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“Nareit”). Nareit defines FFO as net income or loss calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding:
•depreciation and amortization related to real estate;
•gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets; and
•impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity.entity; and
•similar adjustments for partially owned consolidated real estate entities.
The exclusion in Nareit’s definition of FFO of impairment write-downs and gains and losses from the sale of real estate assets helps to identify the operating results of the long-term assets that form the base of our investments, and assists management and investors in comparing those operating results between periods.
Due to limitations of the Nareit FFO definition, we have made certain interpretations in applying the definition. We believe all such interpretations not specifically provided for in the Nareit definition are consistent with the definition. Nareit's FFO White Paper 2018 Restatement clarified that impairment write-downs of land related to a REIT'sREIT’s main business are excluded from FFO and a REIT has the option to exclude impairment write-downs of assets that are incidental to the main business.
We believe that FFO, which is a standard supplemental measure for equity REITs, is helpful to investors in understanding our operating performance, primarily because its calculation excludes depreciation and amortization expense on real estate assets, thereby providing an additional perspective on our operating results. We believe that GAAP historical cost depreciation of real estate assets is not correlated with changes in the value of those assets, whose value does not diminish predictably over time, as historical cost depreciation implies. The exclusion in Nareit’s definition of FFO of impairment write-downs and gains and losses from the sale of real estate assets helps to identify the operating results of the long-term assets that form the base of our investments, and assists management and investors in comparing those operating results between periods.
While FFO is widely used by us as a primary performance metric, not all real estate companies use the same definition of FFO or calculate FFO the same way. Accordingly, FFO presented here is not necessarily comparable to FFO presented by other real estate companies. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measurement of performance, but rather should be considered as an additional, supplemental measure. FFO also does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, andnor is not necessarilyit indicative of sufficient cash flowfunds available to fund all of ourcash needs, or ourincluding the ability to service indebtedness or make distributions.distributions to shareholders.
Core Funds from Operations ("Core FFO"), a non-GAAP measure, is FFO adjusted for non-routine items or items not considered core to business operations. By further adjusting for items that are not considered part of core business operations, the company believes that Core FFO provides investors with additional information to compare core operating and financial performance between periods. Core FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or as any other GAAP measurement of performance, but rather should be considered an additional supplemental measure. Core FFO also does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund all cash needs, including the ability to service indebtedness or make distributions to shareholders. Core FFO is a non-GAAP and non-standardized financial measure that may be calculated differently by other REITs and that should not be considered a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We desirestrive to create and maintain a strong balance sheet that offersand preserve financial flexibility, and enables us to pursue and acquire apartment communities thatwhich we believe should enhance our portfolio composition, operating metrics, and cash flow growth prospects.ability to capitalize on appropriate investment opportunities as they may arise. We intend to strengthen our capital and liquidity positions by continuingcontinue to focus on improving our core fundamentals, which include generating positive cash flows from operations,operation, maintaining appropriate debt levels and leverage ratios, and controlling overhead costs.
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents on hand and cash flows generated from operations. Other sources include availability under our unsecured lines of credit, proceeds from property dispositions, including restricted cash related to net tax deferred proceeds, offerings of preferred and common shares under our shelf registration statement, including offerings of common shares under our 20192021 ATM Program,program, and long-term unsecured debt or long-termand secured mortgages.
Our primary liquidity demands are normally-recurring operating and overhead expenses, debt service and repayments, capital improvements to our communities, distributions to the holders of our preferred shares, common shares, Series D preferred units, Series E preferred units, and Units, value-add redevelopment, common and preferred share buybacks, Unit redemptions, and acquisition of additional communities.
We intend to maintain a strong balance sheet and preserve our financial flexibility, which we believe should enhance our ability to capitalize on appropriate investment opportunities as they may arise. We intend to maintain our capital structure by taking certain actions, including:
extending and sequencing our debt maturity dates;
managing interest rate exposure through the appropriate use of a mix of fixed and floating debt and utilizing our lines of credit and term loans as appropriate;
maintaining adequate coverage ratios on our debt obligations; and
where appropriate, accessing the equity markets through our 2019 ATM Program and other offerings under our shelf registration statement.
We have historically met our short-term liquidity requirements through net cash flows provided by our operating activities and, from time to time, through draws on our lines of credit. We considerbelieve our ability to generate cash from property operating activities and draws on our lines of credit to be adequate to meet all expected operating requirements and to make distributions to our shareholders in accordance with the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Budgeted expenditures for ongoing maintenance and capital improvements and renovations to our real estate portfolio are also generally expected to be funded from existing cash on hand, cash flow generated from property operations, draws on our lines of credit and/or new borrowings, and we believe we will have sufficient liquidity to meet our commitments over the next twelve months.
To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must pay dividends to our shareholders aggregating annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gains. Under a separate requirement, we must distribute 100% of net capital gains or pay a corporate level tax in lieu thereof. While we have historically satisfied this distribution requirement by making cash distributions to our shareholders, we may choose to satisfy this requirement by making distributions of other property, including, in limited circumstances, our own common shares. As a result of this distribution requirement, our Operating Partnership cannot rely on retained earnings to fund ongoing operations. We pay dividends from cash available for distribution. Until it is distributed, cash available for distribution is typically invested in investment grade securities or is used to reduce balances outstanding under our line of credit. In the event of deterioration in property operating results, we may need to consider additional cash preservation alternatives, including reducing development activities, capital improvements, and renovations. For the year ended December 31, 2019,2022, we declared cash distributions of $36.4$47.4 million to common shareholders and unitholders of IRET Properties,Centerspace, LP, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $69.6$92.0 million and FFO of $52.9$79.9 million.
Factors that could increase or decrease our future liquidity include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates or sources of financing, general volatility in capital and credit markets, changes in minimum REIT dividend requirements, and our ability to access the capital markets on favorable terms, or at all. As a result of the foregoing conditions or general economic conditions in our markets that affect our ability to attract and retain residents, we may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations. If we are unable to obtain capital from other sources, we may not be able to pay the distribution required to maintain our status as a REIT, make required principal and interest payments, make strategic acquisitions or make necessary routine capital improvements or undertake re-developmentvalue add renovation opportunities with respect to our existing portfolio of operating assets.
As of December 31, 2019,2022, we had total liquidity of approximately $226.5$153.0 million, which included $199.9$142.5 million available on our linelines of credit based on the value of unencumbered properties and $10.5 million of cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2021, we had total liquidity of approximately $204.8 million, which included $173.5 million available on our lines of credit based on the value of properties contained in our unencumbered asset pool ("UAP"(“UAP”) and $26.6 million of cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2018, we had total liquidity of approximately $188.8 million, which included $175.0 million available on our line of credit based on the UAP and $13.8 million of cash and cash equivalents.

Inflation and Supply Chain
Our apartment leases generally have terms of one year or less, which means that, in an inflationary environment, we would have the ability, subject to market conditions, to increase rents upon the commencement of new leases or renewal of existing leases thereby minimizingto manage the riskimpact of inflation.inflation on our business. However, the cost to operate and maintain communities could increase at a rate greater than our ability to increase rents, which could adversely affect our results of operations. High inflation could have a negative impact on our residents and their ability to absorb rent increases.
Off-Balance-Sheet ArrangementsWe also continue to monitor pressures surrounding supply chain challenges. Supply chain and inflationary pressures are likely to result in increased operating expenses, specifically, increases in energy costs, salary related costs, and construction materials for repairs and maintenance or value add projects. A worsening of the current environment could contribute to delays in obtaining construction materials and result in higher than anticipated costs, which could prevent us from obtaining expected returns on value add projects.
AsWe continue to have access to the financial markets; however, a prolonged disruption of December 31, 2019, we had no significant off-balance-sheet arrangements, as definedthe markets or a decline in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of SEC Regulation S-K.credit and financing conditions could negatively affect our ability to access capital necessary to fund our operations or refinance maturing debt in the future. Additionally, rising interest rates could negatively impact our borrowing costs for any variable rate borrowings or refinancing activity.
Critical Accounting Policies Estimates
Set forth below is a summary of the accounting policiesestimates that management believes are critical to the preparation of the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.Report.
Real Estate. Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation, less an adjustment for impairment, if any. Depreciation requires an estimate by management of the useful life of each asset as well as an allocation of the costs associated with a property to its various components. As described further below, the process of allocating property costs to its components involves a considerable amount of subjective judgments to be made by management. If we do not allocate these costs appropriately or incorrectly estimate the useful lives of our real estate, depreciation expense may be misstated. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. We use a 10-37 year estimated life for buildings and improvements and a 5-10 year estimated life for furniture, fixtures, and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Renovations and improvements that improve and/or extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized over their estimated useful life, generally five to twenty years.
In the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, we determined it was appropriate to review and adjust our estimated useful lives to be specific to our remaining asset portfolio. Effective May 1, 2017, we changed the estimated useful lives of our real estate assets to better reflect the estimated periods during which they will be of economic benefit. Refer to Note 2 of our consolidated financial statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion on this change and its impact.
Property sales or dispositions are recorded when control of the assets are transferred to the buyer and we have no significant continuing involvement with the property sold. The gain or loss on disposal is recognized net of certain closing and other costs associated with the disposition.
Acquisition of Investments in Real Estate. Upon acquisitions of real estate, we assess the fair value of acquired tangible assets (including land, buildings and personal property), which is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and consider
whether there were significant intangible assets acquired (for example, above-and below-market leases, the value of acquired in-place leases and resident relationships) and assumed liabilities, and allocate the purchase price based on these assessments. The as-if-vacant value is allocated to land, buildings, and personal property based on our determination of the relative fair value of these assets. Techniques used to estimate fair value include discounted cash flow analysis and reference to recent sales of comparable properties. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors, including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect the property. Land value is assigned based on the purchase price if land is acquired separately or based on a relative fair value allocation if acquired in a portfolio acquisition.
Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values that are based upon our evaluation of the specific characteristics of the leases. Factors considered in the fair value analysis include an estimate of carrying costs and foregone rental income during hypothetical expected lease-up periods, consideration of current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. We also consider information about each property obtained during our pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing and leasing activities in estimating the relative fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired.
Capitalization of Costs. We follow the real estate project costs guidance in ASC 970, Real Estate – General, in accounting for the costs of development and re-development projects. As real estate is undergoing development or re-development, all project costs directly associated with and attributable to the development and construction of a project, including interest expense and real estate tax expense, are capitalized to the cost of the real property. The capitalization period begins when development activities and expenditures begin and ends upon completion, which is when the asset is ready for its intended use. Generally, rental property is considered substantially complete upon issuance of a certificate of occupancy.
Real Estate Held For Sale. Properties are classified as held for sale when they meet the necessary criteria, which include: (a) management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the asset, and (b) the sale of the asset is probable and expected to be completed within one year. We generally consider these criteria to be met when the transaction has been approved by our Board of Trustees, there are no known significant contingencies related to the sale, and management believes it is probable that the sale will be completed within one year. Real estate held for sale is stated at the lower of its carrying amount or estimated fair value less disposal costs. Depreciation is not recorded on assets classified as held for sale.
We report in discontinued operations the results of operations and the related gains or losses on the sales of properties that have either been disposed of or classified as held for sale and meet the classification of a discontinued operation as described in ASC 205 - Presentation of Financial Statements and ASC 360 - Property, Plant, and Equipment: Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. Under these standards, a disposal (or classification as held for sale) of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results.
Impairment. We periodically evaluate our long-lived assets, including our investments in real estate, for impairment indicators. The impairment evaluation is performed on assets by property such that assets for a property form an asset group. The judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on factors such as operational performance, market conditions, expected holding period of each asset group,property, and legal and environmental concerns. If indicators exist, we compare the expectedestimated future undiscounted cash flows for the long-lived asset groupproperty against the carrying amount of that asset group.property. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount, of the asset group, an impairment loss is generally recorded for the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying amount of the asset group.amount. If our anticipated holding period for properties, the estimated fair value of properties, or other factors change based on market conditions or otherwise, our evaluation of impairment charges may be different and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements. The evaluation of anticipatedestimated cash flows is subjective and is based, in part, on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results. Plans to hold properties over longer periods decrease the likelihood of recording impairment losses.
Held for Sale. We classify properties as held for sale when they meet the GAAP criteria, which include: (a) management commits to and initiates a plan to sell the asset; (b) the sale is probable and expected to be completed within one year under terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets; and (c) actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. Held for sale properties are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or estimated fair value less costs to sell.

For disclosure regarding recent accounting pronouncements and the anticipated impact they will have on our operations, please refer to Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.Report.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. Our future revenue, cash flows, and fair values of certain financial instruments are dependent upon prevailing market prices and interest rates.
Our exposure to market risk is primarily related to fluctuations in the general level of interest rates on our current and future fixed and variable rate debt obligations. Our operating results are, therefore, affected by changes in interest rates, including LIBOR and SOFR.
We currently usehave used interest rate swaps to offset the impact of interest rate fluctuations on our $70.0 million and $75.0 million variable-rate term loans anddebt. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we terminated our remaining interest rate swaps, which consisted of a portion of our line of credit. The swap on our $70.0 million term loan haswith a notional amount of $70.0 million and an average pay rate of 2.16%. The swap on our $75.0 million term loan has a notional amount of $75.0 million and an average pay rate of 2.81%. Thea forward swap on our line of credit haswith a notional amount of $50.0 million and an average pay rate of 2.02%. The aggregate fair value of our interest rate swaps is a liability of $7.6 million, as of December 31, 2019.$70.0 million. We do not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The interest rate swaps expose us to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparty under the terms of the agreement.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we entered into a private shelf agreement for the issuance of up to $150.0 million of unsecured senior promissory notes ("unsecured senior notes"). Under this agreement, we issued $75.0 million of Series A notes due September 13, 2029, bearing interest at a rate of 3.84% annually, and $50.0 million of Series B notes due September 30, 2028, bearing interest at a rate of 3.69% annually. The proceeds from this facility were used to repay outstanding amounts under our unsecured credit facility, retire mortgage debt, and partially fund our acquisition of Lugano at Cherry Creek. As a result of entering into this facility, we have been able to lengthen our average debt maturity duration and lower our weighted average interest rate of debt.
As of December 31, 2019,2022, we had no variable-rate mortgage debt outstanding and $195.1$213.5 million of variable-rate borrowings under our linelines of credit and term loans, of which $195.0 million is fixed through interest rate swaps.loan. We estimate that a change in 30-day LIBOR or SOFR of 100 basis points with constant risk spreads would not have an impact onresult in a $2.1 million reduction to our net income due to(loss) on an annual basis. We estimate that a decrease in a 30-day LIBOR or SOFR of 100 basis points would increase our interest rate swaps on our existing variable rate debt.net income (loss) by a similar amount.
Mortgage loan indebtedness, decreasedexcluding the FMCF, increased by $114.6$14.5 million as of December 31, 2019,2022, compared to December 31, 2018,2021, primarily due to loan payoffs related to property dispositions.assumption of mortgage debt with acquisitions. As of December 31, 20192022 and December 31, 2018,2021, 100.0% of our $331.4$299.4 million of mortgage debt was at fixed rates of interest, with staggered maturities. As of December 31, 2019,2022, the weighted
average rate of interest on our mortgage debt was 4.02%3.85%, compared to 4.58%3.81% on December 31, 2018.2021. Even
though our goal is to maintain a fairly low exposure to interest rate risk, we may become vulnerable to significant fluctuations in interest rates on any future repricing or refinancing of our fixed or variable rate debt or future debt.
We cannot predict with certainty the effect of adverse changes in interest rates on our debt and, therefore, our market risk.
The following table provides information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. For debt obligations, the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates. Average variable rates are based on rates in effect at the reporting date.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures: As of December 31, 2019,2022, the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, on Form 10-K, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in RuleRules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting: There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in RuleRules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter of the year to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTINGManagement’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019.2022. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of our principal executive and principal financial officers to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP.
As of December 31, 2019,2022, management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, based on the framework established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on this assessment, management has determined that our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019,2022, was effective.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that:
•pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions, acquisitions and dispositions of assets;
•provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and the trustees; and
•provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures.
Our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 20192022 has been audited by Grant Thornton LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report on page F-4 of our consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which expresses an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019.2022.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Trustees and Shareholders
Investors Real Estate TrustCenterspace
Opinion on the financial statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Investors Real Estate TrustCenterspace (a North Dakota real estate investment trust) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 20192022 and 2018, and April 30, 2018,2021, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), equity, and cash flows for each of the year ended December 31, 2019, eight monththree years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the years ended April 30, 2018 and 2017,2022, and the related notes and financial statement schedule inincluded under Item 1515(a) (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, thefinancial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Companyas of December 31, 20192022 and 2018, and April 30, 2018,2021, and the results of itsoperations and itscash flows for each of the year ended December 31, 2019, eight monththree years in the period ended December 31, 2018 and the years ended April 30, 2018 and 2017,2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019,2022, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-IntegratedControl—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), and our report dated February 19, 202021, 2023 expressed an unqualified opinion.
Basis for opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence supportingregarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical audit matters
The criticalCritical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication ofWe determined that there are no critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.matters.
Mortgage Loans Receivable and Notes Receivable
As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, in December 2019, the company originated a $29.9 million construction loan and a $15.3 million mezzanine loan to an unconsolidated variable interest entity ("unconsolidated VIE"), for the development of a multifamily development located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The loans are secured by mortgages and mature on December 31, 2023, and the agreement provides the Company with an option to purchase the development. The Company concluded it is not the primary beneficiary of the unconsolidated VIE as the Company does not have the power to direct the activities which most significantly impact its economic performance nor do they have significant influence over the unconsolidated VIE. We identified the Company's VIE determination for the unconsolidated VIE transaction as a critical audit matter.
The principal consideration for our determination that the VIE determination for the unconsolidated VIE transaction is a critical audit matter is that it involves a high degree of judgment in assessing management's conclusions that the Company does not exert
control over the activities that are most significant in impacting the economics of the unconsolidated VIE and therefore is not the primary beneficiary and does not consolidate the VIE.
Our audit procedures related to the VIE determination for the unconsolidated VIE transaction included the following, among others.
We tested the design and operating effectiveness of management's internal controls over their VIE determination, including controls over the evaluation and application of the appropriate accounting principles.
We inspected the construction and mezzanine loan agreements to identify and understand the provisions relevant to management's conclusion.
We evaluated those relevant provisions to determine whether management's conclusions were consistent with the relevant accounting guidance, specifically whether the protective rights granted to the Company through the loan agreements gave the Company the power to direct the activities most significant to the unconsolidated VIE.
We consulted our national office regarding the appropriateness of management’s conclusions that the Company was not the primary beneficiary of the VIE as the Company does not exert control over the activities that are most significant in impacting the economics of the VIE.

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019,2022, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-IntegratedControl—Integrated Framework issued by COSO.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019,2022, and our report dated February 19, 202021, 2023 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying ManagementsManagement’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and limitations of internal control over financial reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

As of December 31, 2019,2022, we held for investment 6984 apartment communities with 11,95315,065 homes. We conduct a majority of our business activities through our consolidated operating partnership, IRET Properties, a North Dakota Limited PartnershipCenterspace, LP, (the “Operating Partnership”), as well as through a number of other subsidiary entities.
All references to IRET,Centerspace, we, our, or us refer to Investors Real Estate TrustCenterspace and its consolidated subsidiaries.
NOTE 2 • BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of all our subsidiaries in which we maintain a controlling interest, including the Operating Partnership.Partnership, and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
On September 20, 2018, our Board of Trustees approved a change in our fiscal year-end from April 30 to December 31, effective as of January 1, 2019. As a result of this change, we filed a transition report on Form 10-KT for the eight-month transition period ended December 31, 2018, in accordance with SEC rules and regulations. The references in these notes to the consolidated financial statements to the terms listed below reflect the respective periods presented in the consolidated financial statements:

Fiscal year ended April 30, 2017 | | May 1, 2016 through April 30, 2017 |
Our interest in the Operating Partnership as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 was 92.0%, 89.7%,82.9% and 89.4%83.3%, respectively, of the limited partnership units of the Operating Partnership (“Units”) as of December 31, 2019, December 31, 2018, and April 30, 2018,, which includes 100% of the general partnership interest.
On December 14, 2018, the Board approved a reverse stock split of our outstanding common shares and Units, no par value per share, at a ratio of 1-for-10. The reverse stock split was effective as of the close of trading on December 27, 2018, with trading commencing on a split-adjusted basis on December 28, 2018. The number of common shares and Units was reduced from 119.4 million to 11.9 million and 13.7 million to 1.4 million, respectively. We have retroactively restated all shares and Units and per share and Unit data for all periods presented.
The consolidated financial statements also reflect the ownership by the Operating Partnership of certain joint venture entities in which the Operating Partnership has a general partner'spartner’s or controlling interest. These entities are consolidated into our other operations with noncontrolling interests reflecting the noncontrolling partners’ share of ownership, income, and expenses.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The following table provides a brief description of recent GAAP accounting standards updates (“ASUs”).
|
| | | |
Standard | Description | Date of Adoption | Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters |
ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments; ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326; ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - Targeted Transition Relief; ASU 2019-11, Codification improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses
| These ASUs require entities to estimate a lifetime expected credit loss for most financial assets, such as loans and other financial instruments, and to present the net amount expected to be collected. In 2018, another ASU was issued to amend ASU 2016-13 which clarifies that it does not apply to operating lease receivables. In 2019, an additional ASU was issued to provide transition relief in which an entity is allowed to elect the fair value option on an instrument-by-instrument basis for eligible instruments, upon adoption of Topic 326. | These ASUs are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. | We will elect the fair value option, as allowed by ASU 2019-05, for our mortgages receivable and notes receivable at January 1, 2020. The fair value option election is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements but will require additional disclosures.
|
ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820) - Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirement for Fair Value Measurements
| This ASU eliminates certain disclosure requirements affecting all levels of measurement, and modifies and adds new disclosure requirements for Level 3 measurements. | This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. | The new standard will not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. |
ASU 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842) - Codification Improvements
| This ASU provides clarification on various lease related issues and provides for reduced transition disclosure requirements. | This ASU has two effective dates. The various lease issues are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The transition disclosures are effective with ASU 2016-02, Leases. We adopted this standard using the modified retrospective approach effective January 1, 2019.
| The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. Refer to the "Leases" section below for transition disclosures. |
ASU 2019-07, Codification Updates to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Final Rule Releases No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, and Nos. 33-10231 and 33-10442, Investment Company Reporting Modernization, and Miscellaneous Updates
| This ASU clarifies or improves the disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of codification topics by aligning them with the SEC's regulations, thereby eliminating redundancies and making the codification easier to apply. | This ASU was effective upon issuance. | The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related disclosures. |
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net income as reported in the consolidated statement of operations, total assets, liabilities or equity as reported in the consolidated balance sheets and total shareholder’s equity. We report in discontinued operationsreclassified certain items within cash flows from investing activities on the resultsConsolidated Statements of operations and the related gains or losses of properties that have either been disposed or classified as held for sale and for which the disposition represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on our operations and financial results.Cash Flows.
REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS
Real estate investments are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and an adjustment for impairment, if any. Property, consisting primarily of real estate investments, totaled $1.3 billion, $1.3$2.0 billion and $1.4$1.8 billion as of December 31, 2019, December 31, 2018,2022 and April 30, 2018,2021, respectively. Upon acquisitions of real estate, we assess the fair value of acquired
tangible assets (including land, buildings and personal property), which is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and consider whether there were significant intangible assets acquired (for example, above- and below-market leases, the value of acquired in-place leases and resident relationships) and assumed liabilities, and allocate the purchase price based on these assessments. The as-if-vacant value is allocated to land, buildings, and personal property based on our determination of the relative fair values of these assets. The estimated fair value of the property is the amount that would be recoverable upon the disposition of the property. Techniques used to estimate fair value include discounted cash flow analysis and reference to recent sales of comparable properties. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors, including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect the property. Land value is assigned based on the purchase price if land is acquired separately or based on a relative fair value allocation if acquired in a portfolio acquisition.
Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values that are based upon our evaluation of the specific characteristics of the leases. Factors considered in the fair value analysis include an estimate of carrying costs and foregone rental income during hypothetical expected lease-up periods, considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar
leases. We also consider information about each property obtained during pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing, and leasing activities in estimating the relative fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired.
Acquired above- and below-market lease values are recorded as the difference between the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and management’s estimate of fair market value lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases. The capitalized above- and below-market lease values are amortized as adjustments to rental revenue over the remaining terms of the respective leases.
Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. We use a 10-37 year estimated life for buildings and improvements and a 5-10 year estimated life for furniture, fixtures, and equipment. Land is not depreciated.
We follow the real estate project costs guidance in ASC 970, Real Estate – General, in accounting for the costs of development and redevelopment projects. As real estate is undergoing development or redevelopment, all project costs directly associated with and attributable to the development and construction of a project, including interest expense and real estate tax expense, are capitalized to the cost of the real property. The capitalization period begins when development activities and expenditures begin and are identifiable to a specific property and ends upon completion, which is when the asset is ready for its intended use. Generally, rental property is considered substantially complete upon issuance of a certificate of occupancy. General and administrative costs are expensed as incurred. Interest of approximately $4,000 and $431,000 was capitalized in continuing and discontinued operations for the years ended April 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We did not capitalize interest during the yearyears ended December 31, 2019 or the transition period ended December 31, 2018.2022, 2021, and 2020.
Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations as incurred. Renovations and improvements that improve and/or extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful life, generally five to twenty years. Property sales or dispositions are recorded when control of the assets transfers to the buyer and we have no significant continuing involvement with the property sold.
We periodically evaluate our long-lived assets, including real estate investments, for impairment indicators. The judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on factors such as operational performance, market conditions, expected holding period of each asset group,property, and legal and environmental concerns. If indicators exist, we compare the expectedestimated future undiscounted cash flows for the long-lived asset groupproperty against the carrying amount of that asset.property. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount, of the asset, an impairment loss is generally recorded for the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying amount of the asset group.amount. If our anticipated holding period for properties, the estimated fair value of properties or other factors change based on market conditions or otherwise, our evaluation of impairment charges may be different and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements. The evaluation of anticipatedestimated cash flows is subjective and is based, in part, on assumptions regarding future physical occupancy, rental rates, and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results. Plans to hold properties over longer periods decrease the likelihood of recording impairment losses.
During the yearyears ended December 31, 2019,2022, 2021, and 2020 we did not incurrecord a loss for impairment on real estate.
During the transition period ended December 31, 2018, we incurred a loss of $1.2 million due to impairment of a parcel of land in Bismarck, North Dakota. The parcel was written-down to estimated fair value based on receipt of a market offer to purchase and our intent to dispose of the property.
During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018, we incurred a loss of $18.1 million due to impairment of 1 apartment community, 3 other commercial properties, and 4 parcels of land. We recognized impairments of $12.2 million on 1
apartment community in Grand Forks, North Dakota; $1.4 million on an industrial property in Bloomington, Minnesota; $922,000 on an industrial property in Woodbury, Minnesota; and $630,000 on a retail property in Minot, North Dakota. These properties were written-down to estimated fair value based on independent appraisals and market data or, in the case of the retail property, receipt of a market offer to purchase and our intent to dispose of the property. We recognized impairments of $428,000 on a parcel of land in Williston, North Dakota; $1.5 million on a parcel of land in Grand Forks, North Dakota; and $256,000 and $709,000 on 2 parcels of land in Bismarck, North Dakota. These parcels were written down to estimated fair value based on independent appraisals and market data.
During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017, we incurred a loss of $57.0 million due to impairment of 16 apartment communities and 2 parcels of unimproved land. We recognized impairments of $40.9 million, $5.8 million, $4.7 million, and $2.8 million, respectively, on 3 apartment communities and 1 parcel of unimproved land in Williston, North Dakota, due to deterioration of this energy-impacted market, which resulted in poor leasing activity and declining rental rates, which should generally be a strong leasing period. These properties were written down to estimated fair value based on an independent appraisal in the case of one property and management cash flow estimates and market data in the case of the remaining assets. The properties impaired for $40.9 million, $4.7 million, and $2.8 million were owned by joint venture entities in which, at the time of impairment, we had an approximately 70%, 60%, and 70% interest, respectively, but which were consolidated in our consolidated financial statements. We recognized impairments of $2.9 million on 13 properties and 1 parcel of land in Minot, North Dakota. These properties were written down to estimated fair value based on management cash flow estimates and market data and, in the case of the 13 properties, our intent to dispose of the properties.
CHANGE IN DEPRECIABLE LIVES OF REAL ESTATE ASSETS
Effective May 1, 2017, we changed the estimated useful lives of our real estate assets to better reflect the estimated periods during which they would be of economic benefit. Generally, the estimated lives of buildings and improvements that previously were 20-40 years were decreased to 10-37 years, while those that were previously nine years were changed to 5-10 years. The effect of this change in estimate for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018, was to increase depreciation expense by approximately $29.3 million, decrease net income by $29.3 million, and decrease earnings per share by $0.22.
REAL ESTATE HELD FOR SALE
Real estate held for sale is stated at the lower of its carrying amount or estimated fair value less disposal costs. Our determination of fair value is based on inputs management believes are consistent with those that market participants would use. Estimates are significantly impacted by estimates of sales price, selling velocity, and other factors. Due to uncertainties in the estimation process, actual results could differ from such estimates. Depreciation is not recorded on assets classified as held for sale.
We classify properties as held for sale when they meet the GAAP criteria, which include: (a) management commits to and initiates a plan to sell the asset; (b) the sale is probable and expected to be completed within one year under terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets; and (c) actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. We generally consider these criteria met when the transaction has been approved by our Board of Trustees, there are no known significant contingencies related to the sale, and management believes it is probable that the sale will be completed within one year. We had 0no properties classified as held for sale at December 31, 2019, December 31, 2018,2022 and April 30, 2018.2021.

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and highly liquid investments purchased with maturities of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents consist of our bank deposits short-term investment certificates acquired subject to repurchase agreements, and our deposits in a money market mutual fund. We are potentially exposed to credit risk for cash deposited with FDIC-insured financial institutions in accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts.
As of December 31, 20192022 restricted cash consisted of $17.2 million of net tax-deferred exchange proceeds remaining from a portion of our dispositions and $2.3$1.4 million in escrows held by lenders for real estate taxes, insurance, and capital additions.lenders.

The funds are under the control of the lender. Disbursements are made after supplying written documentation to the lender.
LEASES
Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASUs 2016-02, 2018-10, 2018-11, 2018-20, and 2019-01 related to leases using the modified retrospective approach. We elected to adopt the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which permits us to not reassess prior conclusions about lease identification, classification, and initial direct costs under the new standard, and the practical expedient related to land easements, which allows us to not evaluate existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for under ASC 840. We made an accounting policy election to exclude leases in which we are a lessee with a term of 12 months or less from the balance sheet.
As a lessor, we primarily lease multifamily apartment homes which qualify as operating leases with terms that are generally one year or less. Rental revenues are recognized in accordance with ASC 842, Leases, using a method that represents a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. RentalFor the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, rental income represents approximately 98.1%97.9%, 98.2%, and 98.4%, respectively, of our total revenues and includes gross market rent less adjustments for concessions, vacancy loss, and bad debt. OtherFor the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, other property revenues represent the remaining 1.9%2.1%, 1.8%, and 1.6%, respectively, of our total revenues and are primarily driven by other fee income, which is typically recognized when earned, at a point in time.
Some of our apartment communities have commercial spaces available for lease. Lease terms for these spaces typically range from three to fifteen years. The leases for commercial spaces generally include options to extend the lease for additional terms.
Many of our leases contain non-lease components for utility reimbursement from our residents. We have elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components for all asset classes. The combined components are included in lease income and are accounted for under ASC 842.
The aggregate amount of future scheduled lease income on our operating leases for commercial spaces, excluding any variable lease income and non-lease components, as of December 31, 2019,2022, was as follows:

REVENUEREVENUES AND GAINS ON SALE OF REAL ESTATE
We adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as of May 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective approach. We elected to apply the new standard to contracts that were not complete as of May 1, 2018. We also elected to omit disclosing the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less. Under the new standard, revenue is recognized in accordance with the transfer of goods and services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration the company expects to be entitled for those goods and services.
Revenue streams that are included in ASU 2014-09 include:
Otherrevenues from contracts with customers include other property revenues:revenues such as application fees and other miscellaneous items. We recognize revenue for these rental related incomeitems not included as a component of a lease such as earned.
The following table presents the disaggregation of revenue streams of our rental income for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020:

In addition to lease income and other application fees, as earned, and have concluded that this is appropriate under the new standard.
Gainsproperty revenue, we recognize gains or losses on salesthe sale of real estate: Subsequent to the adoption of the new standard, a gain or loss is recognizedestate when the criteria for derecognition of an asset are met, including when (1) a contract exists and (2) the buyer obtained control of the nonfinancial asset that was sold. As a result, we may recognize a gain on real estate disposition transactions that previously did not qualify as a sale or for full profit recognition under the previous accounting standard. Any gain or loss on real estate dispositions is net of certain closing and other costs associated with the disposition.
MARKET CONCENTRATION RISK
We concluded that the adoptionare subject to increased exposure from economic and other competitive factors specific to markets where we hold a significant percentage of the new standard required a cumulative adjustmentcarrying value of $627,000 toour real estate portfolio. As of December 31, 2022, we held more than 10% of the opening balancecarrying value of retained earnings as of May 1, 2018, due to the sale of a group of propertiesour real estate portfolio in the prior fiscal year. The sale of properties was previously accounted for using the installment method. Under the installment method, we recorded a mortgage receivable net of the deferred gain on sale, which was to be recognized as payments were received. The gain on sale under the new revenue standard is recognized when control of the assets is transferred to the buyer. As a result of our adoption of the new standard, we recorded a cumulative adjustment to retained earningsMinneapolis, Minnesota and increased the mortgage receivable by $627,000 to recognize the previously deferred gain on sale.

Denver, Colorado markets.INCOME TAXES
We operate in a manner intended to enable us to continue to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.Code. Under those sections, a REIT which distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, excluding capital gains, as a dividend to its shareholders each year and which meets certain other conditions will not be taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to shareholders. For the yearyears ended December 31, 2019, the transition period ended December 31, 20182022, 2021, and the fiscal years ended April 30, 2018, and 2017,2020, we distributed in excess of 90% of our taxable income and realized capital gains from property dispositions within the prescribed time limits. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates (including any alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the four subsequent taxable years. Even as a REIT, we may be subject to certain state and local income and property taxes, and to federal income and excise taxes on undistributed taxable income. In general, however, if we qualify as a REIT, no provisions for federal income taxes are necessary except for taxes on undistributed REIT taxable income and taxes on the income generated by a taxable REIT subsidiary (TRS).
We have one TRS, acquired during the second quarter of fiscal year 2014, which is subject to corporate federal and state income taxes on its taxable income at regular statutory rates. For the year ended December 31, 2019, we estimate that the TRS will have no taxable income. There were no income tax provisions or material deferred income tax items including any valuation allowances for our TRS for the yearyears ended December 31, 2019, the transition period ended December 31, 20182022, 2021, and the fiscal years ended April 30, 2018, and 2017.2020.
We conduct our business activity as an Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust (“UPREIT”) through our Operating Partnership. UPREIT status allows us to accept the contribution of real estate in exchange for Units. Generally, such a contribution to a limited partnership allows for the deferral of gain by an owner of appreciated real estate.
The following table indicates how distributions were characterized for federal income tax purposes for the years ended December 31, 2019, December 31, 2018,2022, 2021, and December 31, 2017,2020:

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY
We have determined that our Operating Partnership and each of our less-than-wholly owned real estate partnerships is a variable interest entity (“VIE”), as the limited partners or the functional equivalent of limited partners lack substantive kick-out rights and substantive participating rights. We are the primary beneficiary of the VIEs, and the VIEs are required to be consolidated on our balance sheet because we have a controlling financial interest in the VIEs and have both the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIEs as well as the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. Because our Operating Partnership is a VIE, all of our assets and liabilities are held through a VIE.

NOTE 3 • EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. We have issued restricted stock units ("RSUs"(“RSUs”) and incentive stock
options (“ISOs”) under our 2015 Incentive Plan, and Series D Convertible Preferred Units ("(“Series D preferred units"units”), and Series E Convertible Preferred Units (“Series E preferred units”), which could have a dilutive effect on our earnings per share upon exercise of the RSUs, ISOs, or upon conversion of the Series D or Series E preferred units (refer to Note 4 for further discussion of the preferred units). Other than the issuance of RSUs, ISOs, Series D preferred units, and Series DE preferred units, we have no outstanding options, warrants, convertible stock, or other contractual obligations requiring issuance of additional common shares that would result in a dilution of earnings. Under the terms of the Operating Partnership'sPartnership’s Agreement of Limited Partnership, limited partners have the right to require the Operating Partnership to redeem their limited partnership units ("Units"(“Units”) any time following the first anniversary of the date they acquired such Units ("(“Exchange Right"Right”).

NOTE 7 • DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Our objective in using anWe used interest rate derivatives is to add stability tostabilize interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. To accomplish this objective, we primarily useused interest rate swap contracts to fix the variable rate interest on our term loans and a portion of our primary line of credit. The interest rate swap contracts qualify as cash flow hedges.debt.
The ineffective portion of a hedging instrument is not recognized currently in earnings or disclosed. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges arewere recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”) and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income for our interest rate swap(loss) will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our term loan and line of credit.variable rate debt. During the next 12 months, we estimate an additional $1.5 million$936,000 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.
Derivatives not designated as hedges were not speculative and were used to manage our exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks but did not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements.

NOTE 8 • FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other liabilities are carried at amounts that reasonably approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. For variable rate line of credit debt and notes payable that re-prices frequently, fair values are based on carrying values.
In determining the fair value of other financial instruments, we apply Financial Accounting Standard Board ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures. Fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (Levels 1 and 2) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (Level 3). Fair value estimates may differ from the amounts that may ultimately be realized upon sale or disposition of the assets and liabilities.

The fair value of our interest rate swaps iswas determined using the market standard methodology of netting discounted expected variable cash payments and receipts. The variable cash payments and receipts are based on an expectation of future interest
rates (a forward curve) derived from observable market interest rate curves. We consider both our own nonperformance risk and the counterparty'scounterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurement.measurement (Level 3).
We utilize an income approach with Level 3 inputs based on expected future cash flows to value these instruments. The unobservable inputs include market transactions for similar instruments, management estimates of comparable interest rates (range of 3.75% to 10.75%), and instrument specific credit risk (range of 0.5% to 1.0%). Changes in fair value of these receivables from period to period are reported in interest and other income on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Debt discount on assumed mortgage. NOTE 10 • DISCONTINUED OPERATIONSDISPOSITIONS
We report in discontinued operations the results of operations and the related gains or losses on the sales of properties that have either been disposed of or classified as held for sale and meet the classification of a discontinued operation as described in ASC 205 - Presentation of Financial Statements and ASC 360 - Property, Plant, and Equipment: Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. Under this standard, a disposal (or classification as held for sale) of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results.
We determined that our strategic decision to exit our healthcare segment met the criteria for discontinued operations, and we consequently classified 27 propertyhad no dispositions as discontinued operations during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018. We classified 0 dispositions as discontinued operations during the year ended December 31, 2019, the transition period ended December 31, 2018 and the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017. During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017, we determined that our strategic plan2022 compared to exit the office and retail segments met the criteria for discontinued operations. Accordingly, 48 office properties, 17 retail properties, and 1 healthcare property were classified as discontinued operations and subsequently solddispositions of $62.3 million during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017. The following information shows the effect on net income and the gains or losses from the sale of properties classified as discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2019,2021.

NOTE 1110 • SEGMENTS
We operate in a single reportable segment which includes the ownership, management, development, redevelopment, and acquisition of apartment communities. Each of our operating properties is considered a separate operating segment because each property earns revenues, incurs expenses, and has discrete financial information. Our chief operating decision-makers evaluate each property'sproperty’s operating results to make decisions about resources to be allocated and to assess performance. We do not group our operations based on geography, size, or type. Our apartment communities have similar long-term economic characteristics and provide similar products and services to our residents. No apartment community comprises more than 10% of consolidated revenues, profits, or assets. Accordingly, our apartment communities are aggregated into a single reportable segment. "All other"“All other” is composed of non-multifamily properties, non-multifamily components of mixed use properties, and properties disposed or designated as held for sale.
Prior to the third quarter of fiscal year 2018, we reported our results in two reportable segments: multifamily and healthcare. We sold substantially all of our healthcare portfolio during the third quarter of fiscal year 2018 and classified it as discontinued operations, at which point healthcare no longer met the quantitative thresholds for reporting as a separate reportable segment.
Our executive management team comprises our chief operating decision-makers. This team measures the performance of our reportable segment based on net operating income (“NOI”), which we define as total real estate revenues less property operating expenses, including real estate taxes. We believe that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for real estate because it provides a measure of operations that is unaffected by depreciation, amortization, financing, property management overhead, and general and administrative expense. NOI does not represent cash generated by
operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income, net income available for common shareholders, or cash flow from operating activities as a measure of financial performance.
The following tables present NOI for the yearyears ended December 31, 2019, the transition period ended December 31, 2018,2022, 2021, and the fiscal years ended April 30, 2018 and 20172020 from our reportable segment and reconcile net operating income to net income as reported in the consolidated financial statements. Segment assets are also reconciled to total assets as reported in the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 1211 • RETIREMENT PLANS
We sponsor a defined contribution 401(k) plan to provide retirement benefits for employees that meet minimum employment criteria. We currently match, dollar for dollar, employee contributions to the 401(k) plan in an amount equal to up to 5.0% of the eligible wages of each participating employee. 401(k) matchingMatching contributions are fully vested when made. We recognized expense of approximately $738,000, $476,000, $838,000,$1.3 million, $1.0 million, and $565,000$875,000 in the yearyears ended December 31, 2019, the transition period ended December 31, 2018,2022, 2021, and the fiscal years ended April 30, 2018 and 2017,2020, respectively.
NOTE 13 • TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
Transactions with BMO Capital Markets
We have an historical and ongoing relationship with BMO Capital Markets (“BMO”). On July 17, 2017, we engaged BMO to provide financial advisory services in connection with the proposed disposition of our healthcare property portfolio. A family member of Mark O. Decker, Jr., our President and Chief Executive Officer, is an employee of BMO and could have an indirect material interest in any such engagement and related transaction(s). The Board pre-approved the engagement of BMO. During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018, we completed the disposition of 27 of our 28 healthcare properties and paid BMO a transaction fee of $1.8 million in connection with this engagement.
NOTE 1412 • COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings. We are currently the named defendant in a lawsuit where the owner of a neighboring property claims a retaining wall at one of our properties is causing water damage to the neighboring property. The claim is for damage to the property and monetary losses. We cannot, with any level of certainty, predict the outcome of the lawsuit or provide an estimate for any potential settlement. We are involved in various lawsuits arising in the normal course of business. Webusiness and believe that such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Environmental Matters. It is generally our policy to obtain a Phase I environmental assessment of each property that we seek to acquire. Such assessments have not revealed, nor are we aware of, any environmental liabilities that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. We own properties that contain or potentially contain (based on the age of the property) asbestos, lead, or lead.underground storage tanks. For certain of these properties, we estimated the fair value of the conditional asset retirement obligation and chose not to book a liability because the amounts involved were immaterial. With respect to certain other properties, we have not recorded any related asset retirement obligation as the fair value of the liability cannot be reasonably estimated due to insufficient information. We believe we do not have sufficient information to estimate the fair value of the asset retirement obligations for these properties because a settlement date or range of potential settlement dates has not been specified by others and, additionally, there are currently no plans or expectation of plans to demolish these properties or to undertake major renovations that would require removal of the asbestos, lead and/or underground storage tanks.others. These properties are expected to be maintained by repairs and maintenance activities that would not involve the removal of the asbestos, lead and/or underground storage tanks. Also,
Under various federal, state, and local laws, ordinances, and regulations, a needcurrent or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for renovations caused by residentthe costs of removal of, or remediation of, certain hazardous or toxic substances in, on, around, or under the property. While the Company currently has no knowledge of any material violation of environmental laws, ordinances, or regulations at any of the properties, there can be no assurance that areas of contamination will not be identified at any of its properties or that changes technology changesin environmental laws, regulations, or other factors hascleanup requirements would not been identified. result in material costs.
Insurance. We carry insurance coverage on our properties in amounts and types that we believe are customarily obtained by owners of similar properties and are sufficient to achieve our risk management objectives.
Restrictions on Taxable Dispositions. NaNThirty-seven of our apartment communities, consisting of approximately 4,4436,758 homes, are subject to restrictions on taxable dispositions under agreements entered into with some of the sellers or contributors of the properties and are effective for varying periods. We do not believe that the agreements materially affect the conduct of our business or our decisions whether to dispose of restricted properties during the restriction period because we generally hold these and our other properties for investment purposes rather than for sale. Where we deem it to be in our shareholders’ best interests to dispose of such properties, we generally seek to structure sales of such properties as tax deferred transactions under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. Otherwise, we may be required to provide tax indemnification payments to the parties to these agreements.
Redemption Value of Units. Pursuant to a Unitholder’s exercise of its Exchange Rights, we have the right, in our sole discretion, to acquire such Units by either making a cash payment or acquiring the Units for our common shares, on a 1-for-oneone-for-one basis. All Units receive the same per Unit cash distributions as the per share dividends paid on common shares. Units are redeemable for an amount of cash per Unit equal to the average of the daily market price of our common shares for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of valuation of the Unit. As of December 31, 2019, December 31, 2018,2022 and April 30, 2018,2021, the aggregate redemption value of the then-outstanding Units owned by limited partners, as determined by the ten-day average market price for our common shares, was approximately $76.6 million, $68.4$58.0 million and $74.7$90.9 million, respectively.
Unfunded Commitments. Centerspace has unfunded commitments of $1.4 million in two real estate technology venture funds. Refer to Note 8 - Fair Value Measurements for additional information regarding these investments.
