17.	Real Estate Impairment Loss

On June 30, 2018, we wrote down the value of certain real estate assets in our Washington, D.C. portfolio. Our estimates of fair value were determined using discounted cash flow models, which considered, among other things, anticipated holding periods, current market conditions and utilized unobservable quantitative inputs, including appropriate capitalization and discount rates. Accordingly, we recorded a $46,000,000 impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value, which is included as “real estate impairment loss” on our consolidated statement of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
