Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] |
INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED REAL ESTATE VENTURES | INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED REAL ESTATE VENTURES As of September 30, 2019, the Company's aggregate investment balance in the Real Estate Ventures was $127.8 million. The Company formed or acquired interests in the Real Estate Ventures with unaffiliated third parties to develop or manage office, residential and/or mixed-use properties or to acquire land in anticipation of possible development of office, residential and/or mixed-use properties. As of September 30, 2019, six real estate ventures owned properties that contained an aggregate of approximately 5.6 million net rentable square feet of office space; two real estate ventures owned 1.4 acres of land held for development; one real estate venture owned 1.3 acres of land in active development; and one real estate venture owned a residential tower that contained 321 apartment units. The Company accounts for its unconsolidated interests in the Real Estate Ventures using the equity method. The Company’s unconsolidated interests range from 15% to 70% and, in certain of the real estate ventures, are subject to specified priority allocations of distributable cash. The Company earned management fees from its Real Estate Ventures of $1.0 million and $3.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, and $1.4 million and $4.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The Company earned leasing commission income from its Real Estate Ventures of $0.3 million and $0.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, and $1.5 million and $4.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The Company had outstanding accounts receivable balances from its Real Estate Ventures of $0.8 million as of both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The amounts reflected in the following tables (except for the Company’s share of equity and income) are based on the financial information of the individual Real Estate Ventures. The Company does not record operating losses of a real estate venture in excess of its investment balance unless the Company is liable for the obligations of the real estate venture or is otherwise obligated to provide financial support to the real estate venture. The following is a summary of the financial position of the Real Estate Ventures in which the Company held interests as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (in thousands):
| September 30, 2019 |  | December 31, 2018
Net property | $ | 841,743 |  |  | $ | 835,983 |
Other assets (a) | 351,364 |  |  | 159,499 |
Other liabilities (a) | 289,952 |  |  | 85,681 |
Debt, net (b) | 581,024 |  |  | 365,707 |
Equity (c) | 322,131 |  |  | 544,094 |
(a) | The increase is due to the recording of lease related assets and liabilities of $197.1 million and $206.4 million, respectively, for MAP Venture in connection with the adoption of Topic 842.
(b) | The increase is due to third-party debt financing received by Herndon Innovation Center Venture during the three months ended March 31, 2019. See “Herndon Innovation Center Metro Portfolio Venture” section below for further information.
(c) | This amount includes the effect of the basis difference between the Company's historical cost basis and the basis recorded at the real estate venture level, which is typically amortized over the life of the related assets and liabilities. Basis differentials occur from the impairment of investments, purchases of third party interests in existing real estate ventures and upon the transfer of assets that were previously owned by the Company into a real estate venture. In addition, certain acquisition, transaction and other costs may not be reflected in the net assets at the real estate venture level.
The following is a summary of results of operations of the Real Estate Ventures in which the Company held interests during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands):
