5. Variable Interest Entities

Consolidated Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”)

The Partnership has determined the Tender Option Bond (“TOB”), Term TOB and TEBS financings are VIEs and the Partnership is the primary beneficiary (Note 16). In determining the primary beneficiary of each such VIE, the Partnership considered which party

has the power to control the activities of the VIE which most significantly impact its financial performance, the risks that the entity was designed to create, and how each risk affects the VIE.  The agreements related to the TOB, Term TOB and TEBS financings stipulate the Partnership has the sole right to cause the trusts to sell the underlying assets. If the underlying assets were sold, the extent to which the VIEs will be exposed to gains or losses would result from decisions made by the Partnership.

As the primary beneficiary, the Partnership reports the TOB, Term TOB and TEBS financings on a consolidated basis. The Partnership reports the Floater Certificates related to the TOB financings, and the Class A Certificates related to the Term TOB and TEBS financings as secured debt financings on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The MRBs, GILs, property loans and taxable GIL secured by the TOB, Term TOB and TEBS financings, are reported as assets on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheets (Notes 6, 7 and 10).

The Partnership has determined its investments in Vantage at Hutto and Vantage at Fair Oaks are VIEs and the Partnership is the primary beneficiary (Notes 8, 9 and 17). The Partnership may currently require the managing member of each VIE to purchase the Partnership’s equity investment in the VIE at a price equal to the Partnership’s carrying value. If the Partnership were to redeem its investment, the underlying assets of the project would likely need to be sold. If the underlying assets were sold, the extent to which the VIE will be exposed to gains or losses would result from decisions made by the Partnership. The Partnership’s option to redeem its investment in Vantage at Hutto was not effective until the second quarter of 2021.   

As the primary beneficiary, the Partnership reports the assets and liabilities of Vantage at Hutto and Vantage at Fair Oaks on a consolidated basis, which consist of investments in real estate assets and a mortgage payable (Notes 8 and 17). If certain events were to occur in the future, the Partnership’s option to redeem each investment will terminate and each such investment may be deconsolidated.

Non-Consolidated VIEs

The Partnership has variable interests in various entities in the form of MRBs, GILs, property loans, a taxable GIL and investments in unconsolidated entities. These variable interests do not allow the Partnership to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of such VIEs. As a result, the Partnership is not considered the primary beneficiary and does not consolidate the financial statements of these VIEs in the Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Partnership held variable interests in 26 and 21 non-consolidated VIEs as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The following table summarizes the Partnership’s maximum exposure to loss associated with its variable interests as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

The maximum exposure to loss for the MRBs is equal to the cost adjusted for paydowns. The difference between an MRB’s carrying value on the Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and the maximum exposure to loss is a function of the unrealized gains or losses on the MRB. 

 

The maximum exposure to loss for the GILs, property loans, taxable GIL and investments in unconsolidated entities is equal to the Partnership’s carrying value.
