Fair Value

The carrying amount of rents and other receivables, restricted cash, escrow deposits, prepaid expenses and other assets, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these amounts.

Our revolving credit facility, term loan facility, asset-backed securitizations and secured note payable are financial instruments, which are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as they were estimated by using unobservable inputs. We estimated their fair values by modeling the contractual cash flows required under the instruments and discounting them back to their present values using estimates of current market rates. Our unsecured senior notes and exchangeable senior notes are also financial instruments, which are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as their fair values are estimated using observable inputs, based on the market value of the last trade at the end of the period.

The following table displays the carrying values and fair values of our debt instruments as of September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017 (in thousands):

As our revolving credit facility bears interest at a floating rate based on an index plus a spread, which is a LIBOR rate plus a margin ranging from 0.825% to 1.55% or a base rate (generally determined according to a prime rate or federal funds rate) plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.55%, management believes that the carrying value of the revolving credit facility reasonably approximates fair value.


(5)	As our term loan facility bears interest at a floating rate based on an index plus a spread, which is a LIBOR rate plus a margin ranging from 0.90% to 1.75% or a base rate (generally determined according to a prime rate or federal funds rate) plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.75%, management believes that the carrying value of the term loan facility reasonably approximates fair value.

Valuation of the participating preferred shares derivative liability considered scenarios in which the participating preferred shares would be redeemed or converted into Class A common shares by the Company and the subsequent payoffs under those scenarios. The valuation also considered certain variables such as the risk-free rate matching the assumed timing of either redemption or conversion, volatility of the underlying home price appreciation index, dividend payments, conversion rates, the assumed timing of either redemption or conversion and an assumed drift factor in home price appreciation across certain metropolitan statistical areas, or MSAs, as outlined in the agreement. The Series C participating preferred shares were redeemed through a conversion into Class A common shares on April 5, 2018 (see Note 10).

In October 2017, in anticipation of the issuance of the 2028 Notes and in order to hedge interest rate risk, the Operating Partnership entered into a treasury lock agreement on a notional amount of $350.0 million, based on the 10-year treasury note rate at the time. The treasury lock was designated as a cash flow hedging instrument and had a fair value of $0.1 million as of December 31, 2017, which was included in escrow deposits, prepaid expenses and other assets within the condensed consolidated balance sheets, with a corresponding unrealized gain reflected in other comprehensive income. The treasury lock was settled upon the issuance of the 2028 Notes in February 2018 and resulted in a $9.6 million gain that was recorded in other comprehensive income and will be reclassified into earnings as a reduction of interest expense over the term of the 2028 Notes. The treasury lock is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy as its fair value was estimated using observable inputs, based on the 10-year treasury note rate.

The following table sets forth the fair values of the participating preferred shares derivative liability and treasury lock as of September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017 (in thousands):
