Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Schedule of Debt Securities, Available-for-sale Measured at Fair Value | The following table sets forth information regarding the Company’s AFS securities that were measured at fair value for the nine months ended September 30, 2020:
AFS Security |  | Amortized Cost |  |  | Allowance for credit losses (1) |  |  | Total unrealized gains/(losses) |  |  | Fair Value |
U.S. Treasury securities |  | $ | 151,762 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 33 |  |  | $ | 151,795 |
(1) | U.S Treasury securities have a long history with no credit losses. Additionally, the Company notes that U.S Treasury securities are explicitly fully guaranteed by a sovereign entity that can print its own currency and that the sovereign entity’s currency is routinely held by central banks and other major financial institutions, is used in international commerce, and commonly viewed as a reserve currency, all of which qualitatively indicate that historical credit loss information should be minimally affected by current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Therefore, the Company did not record expected credit losses for its U.S Treasury securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

(1) | In accordance with the Company's quarterly impairment process, the Company wrote down the book value of the mall to its estimated fair value of $47,300. The mall had experienced a decline of NOI due to store closures and rent reductions. These factors resulted in a reduction of the expected hold period for this asset based on Management’s assessment that there was an increased likelihood that the loan secured by the mall may not be successfully restructured or refinanced. Management determined the fair value of Burnsville Center using a discounted cash flow methodology. The discounted cash flow used assumptions including a holding period of ten years, with a sale at the end of the holding period, a capitalization rate of 14.5% and a discount rate of 15.5%.
