Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Management Statement | Management Statement The consolidated financial statements of Realty Income Corporation (“Realty Income”, the “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”) were prepared from our books and records without audit and include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. Readers of this quarterly report should refer to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017, which are included in our 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as certain disclosures that would substantially duplicate those contained in the audited financial statements have not been included in this report. At September 30, 2018 we owned 5,694 properties, located in 49 states and Puerto Rico, containing over 92.7 million leasable square feet.
