Mortgage and Other Notes Receivable [Abstract] |
Mortgage and Other Notes Receivable | Mortgage and Other Notes Receivable Each of the Company’s mortgage notes receivable is collateralized by either a first mortgage, or a second mortgage, or by an assignment of 100% of the partnership interests that own the real estate assets. Other notes receivable include amounts due from tenants or government-sponsored districts and unsecured notes received from third parties as whole or partial consideration for property or investments. Interest rates on mortgage and other notes receivable ranged from 2.7% to 10.0%, with a weighted-average interest rate of 6.94% and 7.33% at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Maturities of these notes receivable range from May 2014 to January 2047. In May 2013, Mortgage Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a $2,700 loan agreement with an affiliate of Horizon Group Properties, Inc. ("Horizon"), the Company's noncontrolling interest partner in The Outlet Shoppes at Atlanta. The note receivable bears interest of 7.0% through its maturity date in May 2015 and is secured by Horizon's interest in The Outlet Shoppes at Atlanta. In the first quarter of 2013, Woodstock GA Investments, LLC, a joint venture in which the Company owns a 75.0% interest, received $3,525 of the balance on its $6,581 note receivable with an entity that owns an interest in land in Woodstock, GA, adjacent to the site of The Outlet Shoppes at Atlanta. The Company believes that its mortgage and other notes receivable balance of $25,020 was fully collectible as of June 30, 2013.
