MORTGAGES PAYABLE AND LINE OF CREDIT [Abstract] |
MORTGAGES PAYABLE AND LINE OF CREDIT | NOTE 9 • MORTGAGES PAYABLE AND LINE OF CREDIT Most of the properties owned by the Company serve as collateral for separate mortgage loans on single properties or groups of properties. The majority of these mortgages payable are non-recourse to the Company, other than for standard carve-out obligations such as fraud, waste, failure to insure, environmental conditions and failure to pay real estate taxes. As of January 31, 2014, the management of the Company believes there are no defaults or material compliance issues in regard to any mortgages payable. Interest rates on mortgages payable range from 2.53% to 8.25%, and the mortgages have varying maturity dates from the current fiscal year through July 1, 2036. Of the mortgages payable, the balances of fixed rate mortgages totaled $1.0 billion at January 31, 2014 and April 30, 2013. The balances of variable rate mortgages totaled $8.3 million and $26.2 million as of January 31, 2014 and April 30, 2013, respectively. The Company does not utilize derivative financial instruments to mitigate its exposure to changes in market interest rates. Most of the fixed rate mortgages have substantial pre-payment penalties. As of January 31, 2014, the weighted average rate of interest on the Company's mortgage debt was 5.48%, compared to 5.55% on April 30, 2013. The aggregate amount of required future principal payments on mortgages payable as of January 31, 2014, is as follows:
