INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES
As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had ownership interests in BRE Ace LLC and 1776 Holding LLC, which are VIEs. We do not consolidate BRE Ace LLC and 1776 Holding LLC because we are not the primary beneficiary. For both VIEs, our investment interests are included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as Investments in unconsolidated affiliates, and equity earned is included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as Equity in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we received a cash distribution of approximately $6 million from our investment in BRE Ace LLC.
Our two unconsolidated affiliates have aggregated debt balances of $389 million and $393 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The debt is secured by their assets and is without recourse to us. Our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our investment interests in the two unconsolidated affiliates is primarily limited to (i) the carrying amount of the investments, which totaled $74 million as of September 30, 2023 and $72 million as of December 31, 2022, respectively, and (ii) receivables for commission and other fees earned under fee-for-service arrangements. See Note 15: Related Party Transactions for additional information.
