The Company received $154,000 and $647,000 as management fees from the joint ventures for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, as compared to none for the year ended December 31, 2015.

In addition to management contracts with joint ventures, the Company also receives advertising fees from a related party insurance company, Colonial Insurance Agency. These fees are received for allowing Colonial Insurance Agency to sell renter's insurance at some of the Company's multifamily properties. This agreement expired during 2015. The Company received approximately $154,000, $300,000, and $70,000 as advertising revenue for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. All cash management of the Company is managed by the Operating Partnership. In general, cash receipts are remitted to the Operating Partnership and all cash disbursements are funded by the Operating Partnership. As a result of these transactions, the Operating Partnership had a payable to its General Partner (MAA) of $19,000 at each of the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013. The Partnership Agreement does not require that this due to/due from be settled in cash until liquidation of the Operating Partnership and therefore there is no regular settlement schedule for these amounts.
