Under a typical RIDEA structure, we would have certain oversight approval rights and the right to review operational and financial reporting information, but our operators will ultimately control the day-to-day business of the property. Offering RIDEA structures will be a further aspect of our traditional strategy of investing through vehicles such as triple-net leases, mortgage loans, and structured finance.

As of December 31, 2023, we had $1.7 billion in carrying value of net investments, consisting of $1.0 billion or 56.7% invested in owned and leased properties, $196.0 million or 11.3% invested in properties we own accounted for as 34 ​ Table of Contents financing receivables, $477.3 million or 27.4% invested in mortgage loans secured by first mortgages, $60.5 million or 3.5% in notes receivable and $19.3 million or 1.1% in unconsolidated joint ventures.
Added
We believe that RIDEA structures will provide us with additional investment opportunities. We also have identified several opportunities to cooperatively convert existing triple-net leases into RIDEA structures. To develop and implement RIDEA structures, we may need to commit financial and operational resources.
Removed
Rental income, income from financing receivables and interest income from mortgage loans represented 64.6%, 7.7% and 24.2%, respectively, of Total revenues on the Consolidated Statements of Income for the year ended December 31, 2023.

While we anticipate that adding RIDEA transactions will be positive for our business model, our ability to succeed in this new focus will be determined by numerous factors, including our ability to identify suitable investments and our relationship with operators of RIDEA structures.
Removed
In most instances, our lease structure, which pertains to owned properties and those properties we own accounted for as financing receivables, contains fixed annual rental escalations and/or annual rental escalations that are contingent upon changes in the Consumer Price Index. Certain leases have annual rental escalations that are contingent upon changes in the gross operating revenues of the property.
Removed

Removed
For the remaining leases in place at December 31, 2023, assuming no modification or replacement of existing leases and no new leased investments are added to our portfolio, except for the potential subsequent lease extensions and the leases reported below under Update on Certain Operators , we currently expect that the non-cash straight-line rent portion of rental income will increase from negative $2.1 million in 2023 to negative $2.5 million for projected annual 2024.
Removed
The negative non-cash straight-line portion of rental income represents higher cash rent projected to be received than recorded as rental income. Our cash rental income is projected to increase from $130.2 million in 2023 to $131.7 million for projected annual 2024. At December 31, 2023, the straight-line rent receivable balance on the consolidated balance sheet was $19.6 million.

Prestige Healthcare Prestige Healthcare (“Prestige”) operates 22 skilled nursing centers located in Michigan secured under four mortgage loans and two skilled nursing centers located in South Carolina under a master lease. Prestige is our largest operator based upon revenues and assets representing 16.6% of our total revenues and 14.3% of our total assets as of December 31, 2023.
Removed
During the second quarter of 2023, we agreed to defer up to $1.5 million, or up to $0.3 million per month for May through September 2023, in interest payments due on one of Prestige’s mortgage loans secured by 15 skilled nursing centers in Michigan.
Removed
We deferred $0.6 million and $0.9 million in interest payments during the second and third quarter of 2023, respectively. During the fourth quarter of 2023, we amended the mortgage loan with Prestige which was subject to the previously agreed upon interest deferral.
Removed
Effective January 1, 2024, the minimum mortgage interest payment due to us is based on an annual current pay rate of 8.5% on the outstanding loan balance of $183.3 million. The current contractual interest rate on the loan of 10.8% remains unchanged.
Removed
The amendment also provides us the right to draw on Prestige’s security to pay the difference between the contractual rate and current pay rate. We received all 2023 contractual interest of $19.5 million due from Prestige after applying $3.4 million of its security.
Removed
Full contractual interest has been paid on the loan through February 2024 and we expect to receive full contractual cash interest through 2025. Subsequent to December 31, 2023, Prestige increased the security from its receipt of retro-active Medicaid funds. Accordingly, we currently hold security of $4.0 million.
