Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Operating Obligations In connection with the lease we executed upon our acquisition of Wauchula Road in September 2014, we agreed to fund certain irrigation upgrades at the tenant’s option. Initially, 125 of the 590 farm acres on the property were subject to drip irrigation. Pursuant to the lease, the tenant had the option to construct irrigation improvements necessary to convert all or a portion of the drip-irrigated acres to overhead irrigation and be reimbursed by us, up to a maximum aggregate cost of $1.5 million. Construction of these improvements was completed during the three months ended March 31, 2016, at a total cost of $569,607, and, accordingly, we have reflected this commitment in each of the Real estate, at cost and Accrued expenses line items on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Upon us reimbursing the tenant for the total cost of these improvements, which reimbursement occurred on April 5, 2016, we will begin earning additional rental income in the amount of $92,634 per year throughout the remaining lease term. Upon acquiring Espinosa Road in January 2015, we assumed an eminent domain lawsuit brought by the California Department of Transportation (“CalTrans”) against the previous owner of the property for approximately 4.5 acres of nonfarmable land. CalTrans had offered $160,000 to the previous owner as payment for the 4.5 acres; however, this offer was rejected by the previous owner. We intend to accept this offer of $160,000 as fair compensation for the 4.5 nonfarmable acres, and we expect this matter to be settled by September 30, 2016. In connection with our acquisition of Parrish Road in March 2015, for which we initially paid approximately $3.2 million, we committed to providing $700,000 as additional compensation and $45,000 as reimbursement for other miscellaneous costs, contingent upon the approval by a local water management district of increases in certain water permits on the property. We expect these permits to be approved during the three months ending June 30, 2016. As this amount is expected to be paid in full within three months, carrying value is deemed to approximate its fair value. In addition, we also committed to providing up to an additional $500,000 of capital to the tenant for certain irrigation improvements and upgrades on the property, for which we will earn additional rent on the total amount of capital committed by us, as stipulated in the lease. As of December 31, 2015, these improvements had been completed at a total cost of $528,815, and, accordingly, we have reflected our commitment of $500,000 in each of the Real estate, at cost and Accrued expenses line items on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, while the cost overrun of $28,815, which will not require reimbursement by us, was recorded as a tenant improvement. Upon us reimbursing the tenant for our portion of the total costs, which occurred on April 5, 2016, we will begin earning additional rental income in the amount of $139,073 per year throughout the remaining lease term. In connection with the lease we executed upon our acquisition of Bear Mountain in September 2015, we agreed to fund the development of the property into an almond orchard. The development will include the removal of 274 acres of old grape vineyards, the installation of a new irrigation system, including the drilling of three new wells, and the planting of over 800 acres of new almond trees. The project is estimated to cost approximately $7.8 million and is expected to be completed by June 30, 2016. As stipulated in the lease, we will earn additional rent on the total cost of the development project commensurate with the yield on the initial acquisition and based on the timing of related cash disbursement made by us. As of March 31, 2016, we have expended or accrued approximately $3.7 million related to this project; however, we are unable to estimate the total amount of additional rent to be earned related to this project at this time. Litigation We are not currently subject to any material known or threatened litigation.
