Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS	RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Company holds investments in unconsolidated affiliates accounted for under the equity method of accounting. All significant intercompany transactions were eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The cash management of the Company is managed by the Operating Partnership. In general, cash receipts are remitted to the Operating Partnership and all cash disbursements are funded by the Operating Partnership. As a result of these transactions, the Operating Partnership had a payable to MAA, its general partner, of $19,000 at each of the years ended December 31, 2017, and 2016. The Partnership Agreement does not require the due to/due from balance to be settled in cash until liquidation of the Operating Partnership, and therefore, there is no regular settlement schedule for such amounts.
