As of June 30, 2019, the Company had commitments to acquire 10 single-family properties for an aggregate purchase price of $3.3 million, as well as $56.2 million in purchase commitments that relate to both third party developer agreements and land for our internal construction program. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had commitments to acquire 88 single-family properties for an aggregate purchase price of $25.3 million, as well as $58.1 million in purchase commitments that relate to both third party developer agreements and land for our internal construction program.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had sales in escrow for approximately 190 and 78 of our single-family properties, respectively, for aggregate selling prices of $36.8 million and $13.6 million, respectively.

We are involved in various legal and administrative proceedings that are incidental to our business. We do not believe these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations upon resolution.

On January 16, 2018, we received a letter from the staff of the SEC stating that it is conducting an investigation captioned “Trading in Silver Bay Realty Trust Corp.” The letter enclosed a subpoena that requests us to produce certain documents and communications, including those related to our communications and agreements with Silver Bay Realty Trust Corp. (“Silver Bay”), communications with Silver Bay’s financial advisor, and our purchases, sales and holdings of Silver Bay stock. We purchased Silver Bay stock in 2016 and 2017 and then sold all of our holdings in 2017 for a profit of approximately $3.0 million. We intend to continue to cooperate fully with the SEC in connection with this matter. We do not believe this matter will have a material adverse impact on our financial position or results of operations upon resolution.
