Acquisitions and Discontinued Operations [Abstract] |
Acquisitions and Discontinued Operations | 5. Acquisitions and Discontinued Operations Acquisitions of Land. In January 2014, we acquired approximately 2.9 acres of land located in Houston, Texas for approximately $15.6 million. In April 2014, we acquired approximately 7.6 acres of land in Montgomery County, Maryland for approximately $23.8 million. Discontinued Operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, income from discontinued operations, included the results of operations of 12 operating properties, comprised of 3,931 apartment homes, sold during 2013. There were no operating properties sold during the three months ended March 31, 2014. Effective January 1, 2014, in accordance with ASU 2014-08, we believe future sales of our individual operating properties will no longer qualify as discontinued operations. See Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements" for additional discussion of ASU 2014-08. The following is a summary of income from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013:
