Right of use assets - Ground leases (operating) |  |  |  |  | $ 10,226,000
[1] | See below and in Note 20 for information regarding the Company’s right of use assets for ground leases.
[2] | Value-add properties are defined as properties that are either acquired but not stabilized or can be converted to a higher and better use. Acquired properties meeting either of the following two conditions are considered value-add properties: (1) Less than 75% occupied as of the acquisition date (or will be less than 75% occupied within one year of acquisition date based on near term lease roll), or (2) 20% or greater of the acquisition cost will be spent to redevelop the property.
[3] | As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, in order to calculate the present value of the remaining ground lease payments, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate as of January 1, 2019, adjusted for a number of factors, including the long-term nature of the ground leases, the Company’s estimated borrowing costs, and the estimated fair value of the underlying land. The Company elected to use the portfolio approach as all of its ground leases have similar characteristics and determined 7.3% as the appropriate rate as of January 1, 2019.
