Related Party Transactions [Abstract] |
Related Party Transactions | Related Party Transactions Lease for Corporate Headquarters On November 1, 2020, the Company relocated its corporate headquarters to a new office space pursuant to a ten year lease agreement with an affiliate controlled and owned by our Chief Executive Officer and family, as landlord. 2019 Amended Asset Management Agreement On April 30, 2019, CHCI Asset Management, LC ("CAM") entered into the 2019 Asset Management Agreement ("2019 AMA") with CP Real Estate Services, LC (“CPRES”), formerly Comstock Development Services, LC, which amends and restates in its entirety the prior asset management agreement between the parties with an effective date as of January 1, 2018. Pursuant to the 2019 AMA, CPRES will engage CAM to manage and administer the Anchor Portfolio and the day to-day operations of CPRES and each property-owning subsidiary of CPRES (collectively, the “CPRES Entities”). Pursuant to the 2019 AMA, the Company provides asset management services related to the build out, lease-up and stabilization, and management of the Anchor Portfolio. CPRES pays the Company and its subsidiaries annual fees equal to the greater of either (i) an aggregate amount equal to the sum of (a) an asset management fee equal to 2.5% of revenues generated by properties included in the Anchor Portfolio; (b) a construction management fee equal to 4% of all costs associated with Anchor Portfolio projects in development; (c) a property management fee equal to 1% of the Anchor Portfolio revenues, (d) an acquisition fee equal to up to 0.5% of the purchase price of acquired assets; and (f) a disposition fee equal to 0.5% of the sales price of an asset on disposition; or (ii) an aggregate amount equal to the sum of (x) the employment expenses of personnel dedicated to providing services to the Anchor Portfolio pursuant to the 2019 AMA, (y) the costs and expenses of the Company related to maintaining the public listing of its shares and complying with related regulatory and reporting obligations, and (z) a fixed annual payment of $1.0 million. In addition to the annual payment of the greater of either the Market Rate Fee or the Cost Plus Fee, the Company also is entitled on an annual basis to the following additional fees: (i) an incentive fee equal to 10% of the free cash flow of each of the real estate assets comprising the Anchor Portfolio after calculating a compounding preferred return of 8% on CPRES invested capital (ii) an investment origination fee equal to 1% of raised capital, (iii) a leasing fee equal to $1.00/sf for new leases and $0.50/sf for renewals; and (iv) mutually agreeable loan origination fees related to the Anchor Portfolio. The 2019 AMA is currently scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2027 (“Initial Term”) and will automatically renew for successive additional one-year terms (each an “Extension Term”) unless CPRES delivers written notice of non-renewal at least 180 days prior to the termination date. twenty-four months after the effective date of the 2019 AMA, CPRES is entitled to terminate the 2019 AMA without cause provided 180 days advance written notice is delivered to CAM. In the event of such a termination, and in addition to the payment of any accrued annual fees due and payable as of the termination date under the 2019 AMA, CPRES is required to pay a termination fee equal to (i) the Market Rate Fee or the Cost Plus Fee paid to CAM for the calendar year immediately preceding the termination , and (ii) a one-time payment of the Incentive Fee as if the CRE Portfolio were liquidated for fair market value as of the termination date; or the continued payment of the Incentive Fee as if a termination had not occurred. Residential, Commercial and Parking Property Management Agreements The Company entered into separate residential property management agreements with properties owned by CPRES Entities under which the Company receives fees to manage and operate the properties including tenant communications, leasing of apartment units, rent collections, building maintenance and day-to-day operations, engagement and supervision of contractors and vendors providing services for the buildings, and budget preparation and oversight. The Company entered into separate commercial property and parking management agreements with several properties owned by CPRES Entities under which the Company receives fees to manage and operate the office and retail portions of the properties, including tenant communications, rent collections, building maintenance and day-to-day operations, engagement and supervision of contractors and vendors providing services for the buildings, and budget preparation and oversight. These property management agreements each have initial terms of one year with successive, automatic one year renewal terms. The Company generally receives base management fees under these agreements based upon a percentage of gross rental revenues for the portions of the buildings being managed in addition to reimbursement of specified expenses, including employment expenses of personnel employed by the Company in the management and operation of each property. Construction Management Agreements The Company has construction management agreements with properties owned by CPRES Entities under which the Company receives fees to provide certain construction management and supervision services, including construction supervision and management of the buildout of certain tenant premises. The Company receives a flat construction management fee for each engagement under a work authorization based upon the construction management or supervision fee set forth in the applicable tenant’s lease, which fee is generally 1% to 4% of the total costs (or total hard costs) of construction of the tenant’s improvements in its premises, or as otherwise agreed to by the parties. Business Management Agreements On April 30, 2019, CAM entered into a Business Management Agreement (the “BMA”) with Investors X, whereby CAM will provide Investors X with asset and professional services related to the wind down of the Company’s divested homebuilding operations and the continuation of services related to the Company’s divested land development activities. The aggregate fee payable to CAM from Investors X under the Management Agreement is $937,500 payable in 15 quarterly installments of $62,500 each. On July 1, 2019, CAM entered into a Business Management Agreement (the “BC Management Agreement”) with CPRES, whereby CAM provides CPRES with professional management and consultation services, including, without limitation, consultation on land development and real estate transactions, for a residential community located in Monteverde, Florida. The initial term of the BC Management Agreement expired on December 31, 2020, subject to automatic, successive one (1) year extensions, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms of the BC Management Agreement. The current term of the BC Management Agreement expires on December 31, 2022. The BC Management Agreement provides that CPRES will pay CAM an annual management fee equal to $337,500, payable in equal monthly installments during the term commencing on July 1, 2019, and will reimburse CAM for certain expenses. The Hartford Investment In December 2019, the Company made an investment related to the purchase of the Hartford, a stabilized commercial office building located at 3101 Wilson Boulevard in the Clarendon area of Arlington County, Virginia. In conjunction with the investment, the Company entered into an operating agreement with Partners to form Comstock 3101 Wilson, LC, to purchase the Hartford. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Company holds a minority membership interest of the Hartford and the remaining membership interests of the Hartford are held by Partners. Partners is the manager of the Hartford. In connection with the transaction, the Company received an acquisition fee and is entitled to asset management, property management, construction management and leasing fees for its management of the property, pursuant to separate agreements between the Hartford, or its affiliates, and the Company, or its affiliates. The Company is also entitled to an incentive fee related to the performance of the investment. In February 2020, the Company, Partners and DWF VI 3101 Wilson Member, LLC (“DWF”), an unaffiliated, third party, equity investor in the Hartford, entered into a limited liability company agreement (the “DWC Operating Agreement”) to form DWC 3101 Wilson Venture, LLC (“DWC”) to, among other things, acquire, own and hold all interests in the Hartford Owner. In furtherance thereof, on February 7, 2020, the Original Operating Agreement for the Hartford Owner was amended and restated (the “A&R Operating Agreement”) to memorialize the Company’s and Partners’ assignment of 100% of its membership interests in the Hartford Owner to DWC. As a result thereof, DWC is the sole member of the Hartford Owner. The Company and Partners, respectively, hold minority membership interests in, and DWF holds the majority membership interest in, DWC. As of December 31, 2021, the Company’s ownership interest in the Hartford was 2.5%. BLVD Forty Four Investment In October 2021, the Company entered into a joint venture with Partners to acquire BLVD Forty Four, a 15-story, luxury high-rise apartment building located one block from the Rockville Metro Station and in the heart of the I-270 Technology and Life Science Corridor in Montgomery County. Built in 2015, the 263-unit mixed use property includes approximately 16,000 square feet of retail and a commercial parking garage. In connection with the transaction, the Company received an acquisition fee and will also receive investment related income and incentive fees in connection with its equity interest in the asset. The Company will also provide asset, residential, retail and parking property management services for the property in exchange for market rate fees. The Company considers BLVD Forty Four to be a variable interest entity upon which it exercises significant influence; however, considering key factors such as the Company’s ownership interest and participation in policy-making decisions by majority equity holders, the Company concluded that it does not control the investment. As of December 31, 2021, the Company’s ownership interest in BLVD Forty Four was 5%. Credit Facility and Unsecured Promissory Note On March 19, 2020, the Company entered into a Revolving Capital Line of Credit Agreement with CPRES, pursuant to which the Company secured a $10.0 million capital line of credit (the “Credit Facility”). Under the terms, the Credit Facility provides for an initial variable interest rate of the WSJ Prime Rate plus 1.00% per annum on advances made under the Credit Facility, payable monthly in arrears. The five-year term facility allows for interim draws that carry a maturity date of 12 months from the initial date of the disbursement unless a longer initial term is agreed to by CPRES. On March 27, 2020 the Company borrowed $5.5 million under the Credit Facility. On April 10, 2020, the capital provided to the Company by the Credit Facility was utilized to retire all of the Company’s corporate indebtedness owed to CGF. See Note 7 for further description of the Credit Facility and CGF unsecured promissory note. Revenues from Related Parties See Note 11 for details surrounding revenue earned from related parties.
