​ Construction in Progress Construction in progress represents costs incurred on various construction projects currently underway, that as of the balance sheet date have not been completed and placed into service. The construction in progress account consists primarily of water facilities being constructed which the Company anticipates will be placed in service during the next twelve months. During the six months ended February 28, 2022, the Company incurred (1) $0.5 million of costs related to its construction projects and (2) completed the three single-family rental units resulting in the transfer of $1.0 million of costs to a separate account for tracking the capitalized costs of the rental units. ​ Single-Family Rental Homes During the six months ended February 28, 2022, the Company completed construction of the first three houses in its single-family rental business. The costs of the homes are capitalized and when applicable are depreciated over periods not exceeding thirty-years, which is dependent on the asset type. All three houses were placed in service and leased effective November 1, 2021. During the six months ended February 28, 2022, the Company contracted for construction of the fourth house to be used in the rental business. This fourth house is also located in the first development phase of Sky Ranch and construction is beginning in March 2022 with an estimated completion near the start of fiscal 2023. ​ The Company has reserved 46 lots in the second development phase of Sky Ranch to build additional rental units. As of February 28, 2022, the Company had not started construction on any of the units in the second development phase.
