In addition to the mortgage revenue bonds held by the Company, taxable property loans have been made to the owners of the properties which secure certain of the mortgage revenue bonds and are reported as Other Assets, net of allowance. The Company periodically, or as changes in circumstances or operations dictate, evaluates such taxable property loans for impairment. The value of the underlying property assets is ultimately the most relevant measure of the value to support the taxable property loan values. The Company utilizes a discounted cash flow model in estimating a property's fair value. A number of different discounted cash flow models containing varying assumptions are considered. The various models may assume multiple revenue and expense scenarios, various capitalization rates and multiple discount rates. In estimating the property valuation, the most significant assumptions utilized in the discounted cash flow model were the same as those discussed in Note 2 above except the discount rate used to estimate the property valuation in the current year models was 6.3% to 7.4%. The Company believes this represents a rate at which a multifamily property could obtain current financing similar to the current existing outstanding bonds. Other information, such as independent appraisals, may be considered in estimating a property fair value. If the estimated fair value of the property after deducting the amortized cost basis of any senior mortgage revenue bond exceeds the principle balance of the property loan then no potential loss is indicated and no allowance for loan loss is needed.

On November 26, 2013, the Company executed a loan agreement with Foundation for Affordable Housing, a not-for-profit borrower, for approximately $1.6 million. The proceeds from this loan were used to fund a portion of the not-for-profit borrower’s acquisition of Abbington at Stones River, a 96 unit multifamily property located in Tennessee. The term of the loan is approximately eighteen months and the stated interest rate is 9.0% per annum.

In August 2013, the Partnership acquired a Series C mortgage revenue bond and a forward contract to support the construction of Vantage at Harlingen Apartments in Harlingen, Texas. In conjunction with this contract, the Partnership acquired an approximate $1.3 million taxable mortgage revenue bond which carries a base interest rate of 9.0% per annum and matures on October 1, 2053. This taxable mortgage revenue bond is reported as part of the Taxable bonds at fair value in Other Assets. Please see the Fair Value Measurements footnote (Note 16) for the detailed description of the fair value estimation process for the taxable mortgage revenue bonds.

In June 2013, the Partnership acquired six mortgage revenue bonds secured by three properties located in San Antonio, Texas, Avistar at the Oaks Apartments, Avistar on the Hills Apartments, and Avistar in 09 Apartments.

These are reported as part of the Taxable bonds at fair value in Other Assets.

In June 2013, the Partnership redeemed its interest in the Iona Lakes mortgage revenue bond for approximately $21.9 million. This redemption resulted in the realization of approximately $6.5 million in contingent interest income and approximately $4.6 million realized loss on taxable property loans.

During 2012, the Company purchased a taxable bond with a par value of $934,000 in conjunction with the purchase of the Vantage at Judson mortgage revenue bond and recorded a taxable loan of approximately $191,000 in conjunction with the purchase of the restructured Arbors at Hickory Ridge mortgage revenue bond.

The $934,000 Vantage at Judson taxable bond has an cash interest rate of 9.0% and requires monthly principal payments commencing in February 2016 with a term date of February 2, 2053.
