Notes To Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Notes Payable | Borrowings The weighted average interest rate at March 31, 2016 for the $3.44 billion of debt outstanding was 3.7%, compared to the weighted average interest rate of 3.7% on $3.43 billion of debt outstanding at December 31, 2015. Our debt consists of an unsecured credit facility, unsecured term loans, senior unsecured notes, a secured credit facility with Fannie Mae, and secured property mortgages. We utilize fixed rate borrowings, interest rate swaps, and interest rate caps to manage our current and future interest rate risk. More details on our borrowings can be found in the schedules presented later in this section. At March 31, 2016, we had $2.1 billion of senior unsecured notes and term loans fixed at an average interest rate of 3.9% and a $750 million variable rate credit facility with an average interest rate of 1.4% with $130.0 million borrowed at March 31, 2016. Additionally, we had $115.0 million (after considering the impact of interest rate swap and cap agreements in effect) of conventional, secured variable rate debt outstanding at an average interest rate of 1.1% and $75.0 million of capped conventional, secured variable rate debt at an average interest rate of 1.1%. The interest rate on all other secured debt, totaling $1.0 billion, was hedged or fixed at an average interest rate of 4.0%. Unsecured Credit Facility We maintain a $750.0 million unsecured credit facility with fifteen banks led by KeyBank National Association, or the KeyBank Facility. The KeyBank Facility includes an expansion option up to $1.5 billion. The KeyBank Facility bears an interest rate of LIBOR plus a spread of 0.85% to 1.55% based on an investment grade pricing grid and is currently bearing interest at an all-in rate of 1.43%. This credit line expires in April 2020 with an option to extend for an additional six months. At March 31, 2016, we had $130.0 million actually borrowed under this facility, and another approximately $2.8 million used to support letters of credit. Unsecured Term Loans We also maintain three term loans with a syndicate of banks, led by KeyBank, Wells Fargo, and US Bank, respectively. The KeyBank term loan has a balance of $150 million, matures in 2021, and has a variable interest rate of LIBOR plus a spread of 0.90% to 1.75% based on our credit ratings. The Wells Fargo term loan has a balance of $250 million and matures in 2018. The US Bank term loan has a balance of $150 million and matures in 2020. Both the Wells Fargo and US Bank term loans have variable interest rates of LIBOR plus a spread of 0.90% to 1.90% based on our credit ratings. Senior Unsecured Notes As of March 31, 2016, we have approximately $1.2 billion of publicly issued notes and $310.0 million of private placement notes. These senior unsecured notes have maturities ranging from five to 12 years, averaging 7.5 years remaining until maturity as of March 31, 2016. Secured Credit Facility We maintain a $240.0 million secured credit facility with Prudential Mortgage Capital, which is credit enhanced by Fannie Mae, or the Fannie Mae Facility. The Fannie Mae Facility provides for both fixed and variable rate borrowings and has Fannie Mae rate tranches with maturities from 2016 through 2018. The interest rate on the majority of the variable portion renews every 90 days and is based on the Fannie Mae discount mortgage backed security rate on the date of renewal, which, for the Company, has historically approximated three-month LIBOR less an average of 0.17% over the life of the Fannie Mae Facility, plus a fee of 0.62%. Borrowings under the Fannie Mae Facility totaled $240.0 million at March 31, 2016, consisting of $50.0 million under a fixed portion at a rate of 4.7%, and the remaining $190.0 million under the variable rate portion of the facility at an average rate of 1.1%. The available borrowing capacity at March 31, 2016, was $240.0 million. Secured Property Mortgages At March 31, 2016, we had $1.0 billion of fixed rate conventional property mortgages with an average interest rate of 4.0% and an average maturity in 2019. On February 1, 2016, we paid off a $13.4 million mortgage associated with the Colonial Village at Matthews apartment community. The loan was scheduled for maturity in March 2016. On March 1, 2016, we paid off a $20.2 million mortgage associated with the Verandas at Southwood apartment community. The payoff was a scheduled maturity of the loan. In addition to these payoffs, we have paid $1.9 million associated with property mortgage principal amortizations.
