Removed
Any such losses could adversely affect our financial condition, operating results, cash flows and ability to make distributions.
Added
We have faced and expect to continue to face significant increases in property taxes. If property taxes, over which we have no control, continue to increase at recent rates, and if we are unable to increase rental rates to offset such increased expense, it would adversely affect our operating results, including our net operating income.
Removed
We address potential breaches or disclosure of this confidential personally identifiable information by implementing a variety of security measures intended to protect the confidentiality and security of this information including, among others: (a) engaging 11 reputable, recognized firms to help us design and maintain our information technology and data security stems; (b) conducting periodic testing and verification of information and data security systems, including performing ethical hacks of our systems to discover where any vulnerabilities may exist; and (c) providing periodic employee awareness training around phishing and other scams, malware and other cyber risks.
Added
Our wholly-owned captive insurance company, American Dream Insurance, LLC, provides general liability insurance coverage for losses below the deductible under our third-party liability insurance policy, and we may increase our utilization of our captive insurance company for additional insurance coverage over time.
Removed
In response to high inflation the Federal Reserve significantly increased the benchmark federal funds rate during 2022 and has signaled its intention to continue with additional increases in 2023. These actions have significantly increased interest rates.
Added
If we experience a loss and our captive insurance company is required to pay under its insurance policies, we would ultimately record the loss to the extent of the required payment. Therefore, 10 insurance coverage provided by our captive insurance company should not be considered the equivalent of third-party insurance, but rather as a modified form of self-insurance.
Removed
Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, there have been increases in restrictions and other regulations on evictions and rent increases and we believe these increases will continue given increasing political support for these types of regulations.
Added
Furthermore, increased regulation of data collection, use and retention practices, including self-regulation and industry standards, changes in existing laws and regulations, enactment of new laws and regulations, increased enforcement activity, and changes in interpretation of laws, could increase our cost of compliance and operation, limit our ability to grow our business or otherwise harm us.
Added
Although none of the cyber-attacks and incidents we have identified to date has had a material impact on our business or operations, we expect to continue to identify cyber-attacks and cybersecurity incidents on our systems and those of third parties, and we cannot predict the potential impact of future cyber-attacks and cybersecurity incidents on our business.
Added
The occurrence of any substantial future cyber-attacks and cybersecurity incidents could materially impact our business, which could adversely affect our financial condition and operating results. HOA rules and restrictions subject us to increased costs and restrict our business operations.
Added
Finally, we could, in certain circumstances, be required to pay an excise or penalty tax or interest charge (which could be significant in amount) in order to utilize one or more relief provisions under the Code to maintain our qualification as a REIT and to avoid the imposition of an entity-level tax.
Added
If a transaction intended to qualify as a Section 1031 tax-deferred exchange is later determined to be taxable or if we are unable to identify and complete the acquisition of a suitable replacement property to effect such a Section 1031 exchange, we may face adverse consequences, and if the laws applicable to such transactions are amended or repealed, we may not be able to dispose of real properties on a tax-deferred basis.
Added
From time to time we may dispose of real properties in transactions that are intended to qualify as tax-deferred exchanges under Section 1031 of the Code (“Section 1031 Exchanges”). It is possible that the qualification of a transaction as a Section 1031 Exchange could be successfully challenged and determined to be currently taxable.
Added
In such cases, our taxable income would increase as would the amount of distributions we are required to make to satisfy our REIT distribution requirements and to avoid the imposition of an entity-level tax. This could increase the dividend income to our stockholders by reducing any return of capital they receive.
Added
In some circumstances, we may be required to pay additional dividends or, in lieu of that, corporate income tax, possibly including interest and penalties. As a result, we may be required to borrow in order to pay additional dividends or taxes, and the payment of such taxes could cause us to have less cash available to distribute to our shareholders.
Added
If a Section 1031 Exchange were later to be determined to be taxable, we may be required to amend our tax returns for the applicable year in question, including any reports we distributed to our shareholders.
Added
It is possible that legislation could be enacted that could modify or repeal the laws with respect to Section 1031 Exchanges, which could make it more difficult or not possible for us to dispose of real properties on a tax-deferred basis.
Added
For any transactions that are not sales, but that affect any of our shares that are not Fast-Pay Stock, the parties to the transaction must make appropriate adjustments to properly take into account the Fast-Pay Stock arrangement.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had approximately $4.4 billion of fixed rate debt and therefore the fair value of these instruments is affected by changes in market interest rates.
We may incur additional variable rate debt in the future, including additional amounts that we may borrow under our revolving credit facility. Assuming no change in the outstanding balance of our existing variable rate debt, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in LIBOR would increase or decrease our projected annual interest expense by approximately $1.3 million.
Assuming no change in the outstanding balance of our existing variable rate debt, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in SOFR would increase or decrease our projected annual interest expense by approximately $0.9 million.
