NTS REALTY HOLDINGS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
FORM 10-K
General
NTS Realty Holdings Limited Partnership (NTS Realty, we, us or our) was organized as a Delaware limited partnership in 2003, but had no operations and a limited amount of assets until December 28, 2004. On that date, a series of predecessor partnerships merged with us, while other entities affiliated with our general partners contributed assets and liabilities to us. On December 29, 2004, our limited partnership units (the Units) began to be listed for trading on the American Stock Exchange under the trading symbol NLP. Our Units currently are listed on the NYSE Amex, which is the American Stock Exchanges successor. As used in this Form 10-K, the terms we, us or our, as the context requires, may refer to NTS Realty, its wholly-owned properties, subsidiaries and its interests in consolidated and unconsolidated joint venture investments or interest in properties held as tenants in common with an unaffiliated third party.
At December 31, 2010, we owned wholly, as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party or through joint venture investments with an unaffiliated third party, 23 properties, comprised of 6 office and business centers, 15 multifamily properties and 2 retail properties. The properties are located in and around Louisville (6) and Lexington (1), Kentucky; Fort Lauderdale (3) and Orlando (3), Florida; Indianapolis (4), Indiana; Memphis (1) and Nashville (2), Tennessee; Richmond (2), Virginia; and Atlanta (1), Georgia. Our commercial properties aggregate approximately 607,000 square feet. We own multifamily properties containing 4,391 rental units and retail properties containing approximately 47,000 square feet.
NTS Realty Capital, Inc. (NTS Realty Capital) and NTS Realty Partners, LLC serve as our general partners. Our partnership agreement vests principal management discretion in our managing general partner, NTS Realty Capital, which has the exclusive authority to oversee our business and affairs, subject only to the restrictions in our certificate of limited partnership and partnership agreement. NTS Realty Capital has a five-member board of directors, the majority of whom must be considered to be independent directors under the standards promulgated by the New York Stock Exchange. Our limited partners have the power to elect these directors on an annual basis.
We do not have any employees. NTS Development Company or its affiliate, NTS Management Company (NTS Development), affiliates of our general partners, oversee and manage the day-to-day operations of our properties pursuant to various management agreements. Pursuant to these agreements, NTS Development receives fees for a variety of services performed for our benefit. NTS Development receives fees under separate management agreements for each of our consolidated joint venture properties and unconsolidated joint venture properties and our properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party, as well as properties owned by our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Property management fees are paid in an amount equal to 5% of the gross collected revenue from our wholly-owned properties, consolidated joint venture properties and properties owned by our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Fees are paid in an amount equal to 3.5% of the gross collected revenue from our unconsolidated properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party. We were the beneficiary of a preferential ownership interest, disproportionately greater than our initial cash investment in each property owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party. Construction supervision fees are generally paid in an amount equal to 5% of the costs incurred which relate to capital improvements and significant repairs. Also pursuant to the management agreements, NTS Development receives commercial leasing fees equal to 4% of the gross rental amount for new leases and 2% of the gross rental amount for new leases in which a broker is used and for renewals or extensions. Disposition fees are paid to NTS Development in an amount of 1% to 4% of the aggregate sales price of a property pursuant to our management agreements and up to a 6% fee upon disposition of our properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party under their respective management agreements. NTS Development has agreed to accept a lower management fee for the properties we own as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party in exchange for a larger potential disposition fee. NTS Development is reimbursed its actual costs for services rendered to NTS Realty.
The independent directors engaged an independent nationally recognized real estate expert (the expert) to assist them in their review of the management agreement entered into as of December 28, 2004, as amended. The expert made suggestions as to the types and amounts of fees and reimbursements to be included in the amended and restated management agreement and assisted in the drafting of the amended and restated management agreement. The amended and restated management agreement was approved by the independent directors and entered into on April 11, 2006, and was effective as of December 29, 2005. It is automatically renewed annually unless terminated pursuant to its terms. The independent directors review the amended and restated management agreement periodically.
Employee costs are allocated among NTS Realty, other affiliates of our managing general partner and for the benefit of third parties so that a full-time employee can be shared by multiple entities. Each employees services, which are dedicated to a particular entitys operations, are allocated as a percentage of each employees costs to that entity. We only reimburse NTS Development Company for actual costs of employee services incurred for our benefit.
Business and Investment Objectives and Operating Strategies
Since our formation, our business and investment objectives have been to:
· generate cash flow for distribution;
· obtain long-term capital gain on the sale of any properties;
· make new investments in properties either wholly, as tenants in common or through joint ventures, including by, directly or indirectly, developing new properties; and
· preserve and protect the limited partners capital.
The board of directors of NTS Realty Capital, in the boards sole discretion, may change these investment objectives as it deems appropriate and in our best interests. Prior to changing any of the investment objectives, the board of directors will consider, among other factors, expectations, changing market trends, management expertise and ability and the relative risks and rewards associated with any change.
We intend to reach our business and investment objectives through our acquisition and operating strategies. Our acquisition and operating strategies are to:
· maintain a portfolio which is diversified by property type and to some degree by geographical location;
· achieve and maintain high occupancy and increase rental rates through: (1) efficient leasing strategies, and (2) providing quality maintenance and services to tenants;
· control operating expenses through operating efficiencies and economies of scale;
· attract and retain high quality tenants;
· invest in properties that we believe offer significant growth opportunity; and
· emphasize regular repair and capital improvement programs to enhance the properties competitive advantages in their respective markets.
Competition
We compete with other entities to locate suitable properties for acquisition, to locate purchasers for our properties and to locate tenants for each of our properties. Although our business is competitive, it is not seasonal to a material degree. While the markets in which we compete are highly fragmented with no dominant competitors, we face substantial competition. This competition is generally for the retention of existing tenants at lease expiration or for new tenants when vacancies occur. There are numerous other similar types of properties located in close proximity to each of our properties. We maintain the suitability and competitiveness of our properties primarily on the basis of effective rents, amenities and services provided to tenants. The amount of leasable space available in any market could have a material adverse effect on our ability to rent space and on the rents charged.
Competitive Advantages
We believe that we have competitive advantages that will enable us to be selective with respect to additional real estate investment opportunities. Our competitive advantages include:
· substantial local market expertise where we own many of our properties;
· long standing relationships with tenants, real estate brokers and institutional and other owners of real estate in our markets; and
· fully integrated real estate operations that allow us to respond quickly to acquisition opportunities.
Distribution Policy
We pay distributions if and when authorized by our managing general partner using proceeds from advances drawn on our revolving note payable to a bank. We are required to pay distributions on a quarterly basis of an amount no less than sixty-five percent (65%) of our net cash flow from operations as this term is defined in regulations promulgated by the Treasury Department under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended;
provided that if a law is enacted or existing law is modified or interpreted in a manner that subjects us to taxation as a corporation or otherwise subjects us to entity level taxation for federal, state or local income tax purposes, we will adjust the amount distributed to reflect our obligation to pay tax. Any distribution other than a distribution with respect to the final quarter of a calendar year shall be made no later than forty-five (45) days after the last day of such quarter based on our estimate of net cash flow from operations for the year. Any distribution with respect to the final quarter of a calendar year shall be made no later than ninety (90) days after the last day of such quarter based on actual net cash flow from operations for the year, adjusted for any excess or insufficient distributions made with respect to the first three quarters of the calendar year. For these purposes, net cash flow from operations means taxable income or loss increased by:
· tax-exempt interest;
· depreciation;
· amortization;
· cost recovery allowances; and
· other noncash charges deducted in determining taxable income or loss, and decreased by:
· principal payments on indebtedness;
· property replacement or reserves actually established;
· capital expenditures when made other than from reserves or from borrowings, the proceeds of which are not included in operating cash flow; and
· any other cash expenditures not deducted in determining taxable income or loss.
As noted above, net cash flow from operations may be reduced by the amount of reserves as determined by us each quarter. NTS Realty Capital may establish these reserves for, among other things, working capital or capital improvement needs. Therefore, there is no assurance that we will have net cash flow from operations from which to pay distributions in the future. For example, our partnership agreement permits our managing general partner to reinvest sales or refinancing proceeds in new and existing properties or to create reserves to fund future capital expenditures. Because net cash flow from operations is calculated after reinvesting sales or refinancing proceeds or establishing reserves, we may not have any net cash flow from operations from which to pay distributions.
Investment and Financing Policies
We will consider the acquisition of additional multifamily properties, retail properties, office buildings and business centers from time to time, with our primary emphasis on multifamily properties. These properties may be located anywhere within the continental United States. However, we will continue to focus on the Midwest and Southeast portions of the United States. We will evaluate all new real estate investment opportunities based on a range of factors including, but not limited to: (1) rental levels under existing leases; (2) financial strength of tenants; (3) levels of expense required to maintain operating services and routine building maintenance at competitive levels; and (4) levels of capital expenditure required to maintain the capital components of the property in good working order and in conformity with building codes, health, safety and environmental standards. We also plan not to acquire any new properties at a capitalization rate less than five percent (5%). Any properties we acquire in the future would be managed and financed in the same manner as the properties that we acquired in the merger, and we will continue to enforce our policy of borrowing no more than seventy-five percent (75%) of the sum of: (a) the appraised value of our fully-constructed properties and (b) the appraised value of our properties in the development stage as if those properties were completed and ninety-five percent (95%) leased.
In addition to the foregoing, we may engage in transactions structured as like-kind exchanges of property to obtain favorable tax treatment under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. If we are able to structure an exchange of properties as a like-kind exchange, then any gain we realize from the exchange would not be recognized for federal income tax purposes. The test for determining whether exchanged properties are of like-kind includes whether the properties are of the same nature or character.
Other Policies
On April 11, 2006, the board of directors of NTS Realty Capital, our managing general partner, approved the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of NTS Realty Holdings Limited Partnership effective December 29, 2005. The following policies were included:
We must obtain the approval of the majority of NTS Realty Capitals independent directors before we may:
· enter into a contract or a transaction with either of our general partners or their respective affiliates;
· acquire or lease any properties from, or sell any properties to, either of our general partners or their respective affiliates;
· enter into leases with our general partners or their affiliates; or
· acquire any properties in exchange for Units.
We are prohibited from:
· making any loans to our general partners or their affiliates;
· paying any insurance brokerage fee to, or obtaining an insurance policy from, our general partners or their affiliates; and
· commingling our funds with funds not belonging to us.
Change in Policies
NTS Realty Capital, through its board of directors, determines our distribution, investment, financing and other policies. The board of directors reviews these policies at least annually to determine whether they are being followed and if they are in the best interests of our limited partners. The board of directors may revise or amend these policies at any time without a vote of the limited partners.
Working Capital Practices
Information about our working capital practices are included in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part II, Item 7.
Conflicts of Interest
Each of our general partners is controlled directly or indirectly by Mr. J.D. Nichols, Chairman of the Board of NTS Realty Capital, our managing general partner. As of December 31, 2010, Mr. Nichols beneficially owns approximately 60.7% of the issued and outstanding limited partnership units. Other entities controlled directly or indirectly by Mr. Nichols have made and may continue to make investments in properties similar to those that we acquired in the merger or contribution. These affiliates may acquire additional properties in the future, which may be located adjacent to properties that we acquired in the merger or contribution.
Environmental Matters
We believe that our portfolio of properties complies in all material respects with all federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances. Independent environmental consultants have conducted Phase I or similar environmental site assessments on a majority of the properties that we acquired in the merger and all properties and interests in properties acquired by us since the merger. Site assessments are intended to discover and evaluate information regarding the environmental condition of the surveyed property and surrounding properties. These assessments may not, however, have revealed all environmental conditions, liabilities or compliance concerns.
Access to Company Information
We electronically file our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to those reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). The public may read and copy any of the reports that are filed with the SEC at the SECs Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at (800)-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an Internet site at www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding issuers that file electronically.
Information concerning NTS Realty Holdings Limited Partnership is available through the NTS Development Company website (www.ntsdevelopment.com). Our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act are available and may be accessed free of charge through the Investor Services section of our website as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file this material with, or furnish it to, the SEC. Our website and the information contained therein or connected thereto are not incorporated into this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Factors That May Affect Our Future Results
Forward-looking statements
Certain information included in this report or in other materials we have filed or will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) (as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by us) contains or may contain forward-looking statements. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They contain words such as anticipate, estimate, expect, project, intend, plan, believe, may, can, could, might and other words or phrases of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. Such statements include information relating to anticipated operating results, financial resources, changes in revenues, changes in profitability, interest expense, growth and expansion, anticipated income to be realized from our investments in unconsolidated entities, the ability to acquire land, the ability to gain approvals and to open new communities, the ability to sell properties, the ability to secure materials and subcontractors, the ability to produce the liquidity and capital necessary to expand and take advantage of opportunities in the future and stock market valuations. From time to time, forward-looking statements also are included in our other periodic reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K, in press releases, in presentations, on our website and in other material released to the public.
Any or all of the forward-looking statements included in this report and in any other reports or public statements made by us may turn out to be inaccurate. This can occur as a result of incorrect assumptions or as a consequence of known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Many factors mentioned in this report or in other reports or public statements made by us, such as government regulation and the competitive environment, will be important in determining our future performance. Consequently, actual results may differ materially from those that might be anticipated from our forward-looking statements.
We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. However, any further disclosures made on related subjects in our subsequent reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K should be consulted. The following cautionary discussion of risks, uncertainties and possible inaccurate assumptions relevant to our business includes factors we believe could cause our actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results. Other factors beyond those listed below, including factors unknown to us and factors known to us, which we have not determined to be material, could also adversely affect us.
Our principal unit holders may effectively exercise control over matters requiring unit holder approval.
As of December 31, 2010, Mr. J.D. Nichols beneficially owns approximately 60.7% of the outstanding NTS Realty Holdings Limited Partnership Units. Mr. Nichols effectively has the power to elect all of the directors and control the management, operations and affairs of NTS Realty Holdings Limited Partnership. His ownership may discourage someone from making a significant equity investment in NTS Realty Holdings Limited Partnership, even if we needed the investment to operate our business. His holdings could be a significant factor in delaying or preventing a change of control transaction that other limited partners may deem to be in their best interests, such as a transaction in which the other limited partners would receive a premium for their Units over their current trading prices.
Adverse economic conditions and disruptions in the function of credit markets could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and ability to pay distributions to you.
The global financial markets are currently undergoing pervasive and fundamental disruptions. The continuation or intensification of such volatility has had and may continue to have an adverse impact on the availability of credit to businesses, generally, and has resulted in and could lead to further weakening of the U.S. and global economies. Our business may be affected by market and economic challenges experienced by the U.S. economy or real estate industry as a whole or by the local economic conditions in the markets in which our properties are located, including the current dislocations in the credit markets and general economic recovery. These current conditions, or similar conditions existing in the future, may have the following consequences:
· the financial condition of our tenants may be adversely affected, which may result in us having to increase concessions, reduce rental rates or make capital improvements in order to maintain occupancy levels, or which may result in tenant defaults under leases due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, operational failures or for other reasons;
· economic recovery could falter or significant job losses may occur, either of which may decrease rental demand, causing market rental rates and property values to be negatively impacted;
· our ability to borrow on terms and conditions that we find acceptable, or at all, may be affected, which could reduce our ability to pursue acquisition opportunities and refinance existing debt, reduce our returns from our acquisitions and increase our future interest expense;
· any reduction in the values of our properties may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or to obtain debt financing secured by our properties and may reduce the availability of unsecured loans; and
· the value and liquidity of our short-term investments and cash deposits could be reduced as a result of a deterioration of the financial condition of the institutions that hold them.
Potential reforms to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could adversely affect our performance.
There is significant uncertainty surrounding the futures of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Should Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac have their mandates changed or reduced, be disbanded or reorganized by the government or otherwise discontinue providing liquidity to our sector, it would significantly reduce our access to debt capital and/or increase borrowing costs and would significantly reduce our sales of assets and/or the values realized upon sale. Disruptions in the floating rate tax-exempt bond market (where interest rates reset weekly) and in the credit markets perception of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which guarantee and provide liquidity for these bonds, have been experienced in the past and may be experienced in the future and could result in an increase in interest rates on these debt obligations.
Our cash flows and results of operations could be adversely affected if legal claims are brought against us and are not resolved in our favor.
Claims have been brought against us in various legal proceedings, which have not had, and are not expected to have, a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition. Should claims be filed in the future, it is possible that our cash flows and results of operations could be affected, from time to time, by the negative outcome of one or more of such matters.
There is no assurance we will have net cash flow from operations from which to pay distributions.
Our partnership agreement requires us to distribute at least sixty-five percent (65%) of our net cash flow from operations to our limited partners. There is no assurance that we will have any net cash flow from operations from which to pay distributions. Our partnership agreement also permits our managing general partner to reinvest sales or refinance proceeds in new or existing properties or to create reserves to fund future capital expenditures. Because net cash flow from operations is calculated after reinvesting sales or refinancing proceeds or establishing reserves, we may not have any net cash flow from operations from which to pay distributions.
Changes in market conditions could adversely affect the market price of our limited partnership units.
As with other publicly traded securities, the value of our limited partnership units depends on various market conditions that may change from time to time. Among the market conditions that may affect the value of our limited partnership units are the following:
· the extent of investor interest in our securities;
· the general reputation of real estate and the attractiveness of our limited partnership units in comparison to other equity securities, including securities or other limited partnership units issued by other real estate-based companies;
· our underlying asset value;
· investor confidence in the stock and bond markets, generally;
· national economic conditions;
· changes in tax laws;
· our financial performance;
· changes in our credit ratings; and
· general stock and bond market conditions.
The market value of our limited partnership units is based primarily upon the markets perception of our growth potential and our current and potential future earnings and cash distributions. Consequently, our limited partnership units may trade at prices that are greater or less than our net asset value per limited partnership units. If our future earnings or cash distributions are less than expected, it is likely that the market price of our limited partnership units will diminish.
We face possible risks associated with the physical effects of climate change.
We cannot predict with certainty whether climate change is occurring and, if so, at what rate. However, the physical effects of climate change could have a material adverse effect on our properties, operations and business. To the extent climate change causes changes in weather patterns, our markets could experience increases in storm intensity and wide variations in temperatures from average. Over time, these conditions could result in declining demand for office space or apartments in our buildings or our inability to operate the buildings at all. Climate change may also have indirect effects on our business by increasing the cost of (or making unavailable) property insurance on terms we find acceptable, increasing the cost of energy and increasing the cost of snow removal at our properties. There can be no assurance that climate change will not have a material adverse effect on our properties, operations or business.
Competition for acquisitions may result in increased prices for properties.
We plan to continue to acquire properties as we are presented with attractive opportunities. We may face competition for acquisition opportunities with other investors, and this competition may adversely affect us by subjecting us to the following risks:
· we may be unable to acquire a desired property because of competition from other well-capitalized real estate investors, including publicly traded and private REITs, institutional investment funds and other real estate investors; and
· even if we are able to acquire a desired property, competition from other real estate investors may significantly increase the purchase price.
Risks Related to Our Business and Properties
We may suffer losses at our properties that are not covered by insurance.
We carry comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage, terrorism and rental loss insurance covering all of our properties. We believe the policy specifications and insured limits are appropriate given the relative risk of loss, the cost of the coverage, our lenders requirements and industry practice. None of the entities carry insurance for generally uninsured losses such as losses from riots, war, acts of God or mold. Some of the policies, like those covering losses due to terrorism, earthquakes and floods, are insured subject to limitations involving large deductibles or co-payments and policy limits, which may not be sufficient to cover losses. If we experience a loss which is uninsured or which exceeds policy limits, we could lose the capital invested in the damaged property as well as the anticipated future cash flows from that property. In addition, if the damaged property is subject to recourse indebtedness, we would continue to be liable for the indebtedness, even if it was irreparably damaged.
Future terrorist attacks in the United States could harm the demand for and the value of our properties.
Future terrorist attacks in the U.S., such as the attacks that occurred in New York, Washington, D.C. and Pennsylvania on September 11, 2001, and other acts of terrorism or war could harm the demand for, and the value of, our properties. A decrease in demand could make it difficult for us to renew or re-lease our properties at lease rates equal to, or above, historical rates. Terrorist attacks also could directly impact the value of our properties through damage, destruction, loss, or increased security costs, and the availability of insurance for these acts may be limited or costly. To the extent that our tenants are impacted by future attacks, their ability to honor obligations under their existing leases with us could be adversely affected.
Our ability to pay distributions and the value of our properties and the Units are subject to risks associated with real estate assets and with the real estate industry in general.
Our ability to pay distributions depends on our ability to generate revenues in excess of expenses, scheduled principal payments on debt and capital expenditure requirements. Events and conditions generally applicable to owners and operators of real property that are beyond our control that could impact our ability to pay distributions, the value of our properties and the value of the Units include:
· local oversupply, increased competition or reduction in demand for office, business centers or multifamily properties;
· inability to collect rent from tenants;
· vacancies or our inability to rent space on favorable terms;
· increased operating costs, including insurance premiums, utilities and real estate taxes;
· costs of complying with changes in governmental regulations;
· the relative illiquidity of real estate investments;
· changing market demographics; and
· inability to acquire and finance properties on favorable terms.
In addition, periods of economic slowdown or recession, rising interest rates or declining demand for real estate, or the public perception that any of these events may occur, could result in a general decline in rents or in increased defaults under existing leases, which could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, the value of the Units and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay distributions.
We face significant competition, which may decrease the occupancy and rental rates of our properties.
We compete with several developers, owners and operators of commercial real estate, many of which own properties similar to ours. Our competitors may be willing to make space available at lower prices than the space in our properties. If our competitors offer space at rental rates below current market rates, we may lose potential tenants and be pressured to reduce our rental rates to retain an existing tenant when its lease expires. As a result, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, the value of the Units and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay distributions could be adversely affected.
Our debt level reduces cash available for distribution and could expose us to the risk of default under our debt obligations.
Payments of principal and interest on borrowings could leave us with insufficient cash resources to operate our properties or to pay distributions. Our level of debt could have significant adverse consequences, including:
· cash flow may be insufficient to meet required principal and interest payments;
· we may be unable to borrow additional funds as needed or on favorable terms;
· we may be unable to refinance our indebtedness at maturity or the terms may be less favorable than the terms of our original indebtedness;
· we may be forced to dispose of one or more of our properties, possibly on disadvantageous terms;
· we may default on our obligations and the lenders or mortgagees may foreclose on the properties securing their loans or receiving an assignment of rents and leases;
· we may violate restrictive covenants in our loan documents, which would entitle the lenders to accelerate our debt obligations; and
· default under any one of the mortgage loans with cross default provisions could result in a default on other indebtedness.
If any one of these events were to occur, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, the value of the Units, our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay distributions could be adversely affected. In addition, foreclosures could create taxable income, which would be allocated to all of the partners, but we may not be able to pay a cash distribution to the partners to pay the resulting taxes.
We could incur significant costs related to government regulation and private litigation over environmental matters.
Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be held liable for contamination resulting from the presence or discharge of hazardous or toxic substances at that property, and may be required to investigate and clean up any contamination at, or emanating from, that property. These laws often impose liability, which may be joint and several, without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of the contaminants. The presence of contamination, or the failure to remediate contamination, may adversely affect the owners ability to sell, lease or develop the real estate or to borrow using the real estate as collateral. In addition, the owner or operator of a site may be subject to claims by third parties based on personal injury, property damage or other costs, including costs associated with investigating or cleaning up the environmental contamination present at, or emanating from, a site.
These environmental laws also govern the presence, maintenance and removal of asbestos containing building materials, or ACBM. These laws require that ACBM be properly managed and maintained, and may impose fines and penalties on building owners or operators who fail to comply with these requirements. These laws may also allow third parties to seek recovery from owners or operators for personal injury associated with exposure to asbestos fibers. Some of our properties could contain ACBM. We operate our properties under Operations and Maintenance Plans as required by our lenders.
Some of the properties in our portfolio contain or could have contained, or are adjacent to or near other properties that have contained or currently contain underground storage tanks used to store petroleum products or other hazardous or toxic substances. These operations create a potential for the release of petroleum products or other hazardous or toxic substances. For example, one of our properties currently has a service station located adjacent to it, and two of our properties are located on a former operating farm under which an underground tank was removed several years ago.
Recent news accounts suggest that there is an increasing amount of litigation over claims that mold or other airborne contaminants have damaged buildings or caused poor health. We have, infrequently, discovered relatively small amounts of mold-related damage at a limited number of our properties, generally caused by one or more water intrusions, such as roof leaks, or plugged air conditioner condensation lines. Mold and certain other airborne contaminants occur naturally and are present in some quantity in virtually every structure. A plaintiff could successfully establish that mold or another airborne contaminant at one of our properties causes or exacerbates certain health conditions. We generally have no insurance coverage for the cost of repairing or replacing elements of a building or its contents that are affected by mold or other environmental conditions, or for defending against this type of lawsuit.
We may incur significant costs complying with other regulations.
Our properties are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as state and local fire and life safety requirements. If we fail to comply with these various requirements, we may be fined or have to pay private damage awards. We believe that our properties materially comply with all applicable regulatory
requirements. These requirements could change in the future requiring us to make significant unanticipated expenditures that could adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, the value of the Units, our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay distributions.
We may invest in properties through joint ventures or as tenants in common, which add another layer of risk to our business.
We may acquire properties through joint ventures or as tenants in common, which could subject us to certain risks, which may not otherwise be present, if we made the investments directly. These risks include:
· the potential that our joint venture partner or tenants in common may not perform;
· the joint venture partner or tenants in common may have economic or business interests or goals that are inconsistent with or adverse to our interests or goals;
· the joint venture partner or tenants in common may take actions contrary to our requests or instructions or contrary to our objectives or policies;
· the joint venture partner or tenants in common might become bankrupt or fail to fund its share of required capital contributions;
· we and the joint venture partner or tenants in common may not be able to agree on matters relating to the property; and
· we may become liable for the actions of our third-party joint venture partners or tenants in common.
Any disputes that may arise between joint venture partners or tenants in common and us may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase our expenses and prevent us from focusing our time and effort on the business of the joint venture.
We are dependent upon the economic climates of our marketsAtlanta, Ft. Lauderdale, Indianapolis, Lexington, Louisville, Memphis, Nashville, Orlando and Richmond.
Substantially all of our revenue is derived from properties located in: Atlanta, Ft. Lauderdale, Indianapolis, Lexington, Louisville, Memphis, Nashville, Orlando and Richmond. A downturn in the economies of these markets, or the impact that a downturn in the overall national economy may have upon these economies, could result in reduced demand for office space or apartment rentals. Because our portfolio consists primarily of apartments and commercial office space, a decrease in demand for these types of real estate in turn could adversely affect our results of operations. Additionally, there are submarkets within our markets that are dependent upon a limited number of industries. For example, most of our apartment communities are classified as luxury apartments and if a downturn affecting luxury rentals were to occur, as opposed to mid-level or efficiency apartments, our results of operations could be adversely affected.
Our expenditures may not decrease if our revenue decreases.
Many of the expenditures associated with owning and operating real estate, such as debt-service payments, property taxes, insurance, utilities, and employee wages and benefits, are relatively inflexible and do not necessarily decrease in tandem with a reduction in revenue. Our expenditures also will be affected by inflationary increases, and certain costs, such as wages, benefits and insurance, may exceed the rate of inflation in any given period. In the event of a significant decrease in demand, we may not be able to reduce the level of certain costs timely or at all. Management also may be unable to offset any such increased expenditures with higher rental rates. Any of our efforts to reduce operating costs or failure to make scheduled capital expenditures also could adversely affect the future growth of our business and the value of our properties.
From time to time we have made, and in the future we may seek to make, one or more material acquisitions, which may involve the expenditure of significant funds.
We regularly review potential transactions in order to maximize limited partner value and believe that currently there are available a number of acquisition opportunities that would be complementary to our business, given the current trends in the apartment industry. In connection with our review of such transactions, we regularly engage in discussions with potential acquisition candidates, some of which are material. Any future acquisitions could require the issuance of limited partnership units, the incurrence of debt, assumption of contingent liabilities or incurrence of significant expenditures, any of which could materially adversely impact our business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, the financing required for such acquisitions may not be available on commercially favorable terms or at all.
Covenants related to our indebtedness limit our operational flexibility and breaches of these covenants could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Our unsecured and secured debt and other indebtedness that we may incur in the future, require or will require us to comply with a number of customary financial and other covenants, including maintaining certain levels of debt service coverage, leverage ratio and tangible net worth requirements. Our continued ability to incur indebtedness and operate in general is subject to compliance with these financial and other covenants, which limit our operational flexibility. For example, mortgages on our properties contain customary covenants such as those that limit or restrict our ability, without the consent of the lender, to further encumber or sell the applicable properties, or to replace the applicable tenant or operator. Breaches of certain covenants may result in defaults under the mortgages on our properties and cross-defaults under certain of our other indebtedness, even if we satisfy our payment obligations to the respective obligee. Additionally, defaults under the leases or operating agreements related to mortgaged properties, including defaults associated with the bankruptcy of the applicable tenant or tenants, may result in a default under the underlying mortgage and cross-defaults under certain of our other indebtedness. Covenants that limit our operational flexibility as well as defaults under our debt instruments could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Tax Risks
Tax gain or loss on disposition of units could be different than expected.
If you sell your Units, you will recognize a gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized and your tax basis in those Units. Prior distributions to you in excess of the total net taxable income you were allocated for a Unit, which decreased your tax basis in that Unit, will, in effect, become taxable income to you if the Unit is sold at a price greater than your tax basis in that Unit, even if the price is less than your original cost. A substantial portion of the amount realized, whether or not representing gain, may be ordinary income.
If you are a tax-exempt entity, a mutual fund or a foreign person, you may experience adverse tax consequences from owning units.
Investment in Units by tax-exempt entities, including employee benefit plans and individual retirement accounts, regulated investment companies or mutual funds and non-U.S. persons raises issues unique to them. For example, a significant amount of our income allocated to organizations exempt from federal income tax, including individual retirement accounts and other retirement plans, will be unrelated business taxable income and will be taxable to such a holder. Very little of our income will be qualifying income to a regulated investment company. Distributions to non-U.S. persons will be reduced by withholding tax at the highest marginal tax rate applicable to individuals, and non-U.S. holders will be required to file United States federal income tax returns and pay tax on their share of our taxable income.
We will treat each purchaser of units as having the same tax benefits without regard to the Units purchased. The IRS may challenge this treatment, which could adversely affect the value of the units.
Because we cannot match transferors and transferees of Units, we will adopt certain positions that do not conform with all aspects of existing Treasury Regulations. A successful IRS challenge to those positions could adversely affect the timing or amount of tax benefits available to you, the amount of gain from your sale of Units or result in audit adjustments to your tax returns.
You likely will be subject to state and local taxes in states where you do not live as a result of an investment in units.
In addition to federal income taxes, you likely will be subject to other taxes, including state and local taxes, unincorporated business taxes and estate, inheritance or intangible taxes that are imposed by the various jurisdictions in which we do business or own property, even if you do not live in any of those jurisdictions. You likely will be required to file state and local income tax returns and pay state and local income taxes in some or all of these jurisdictions. Further, you may be subject to penalties for failure to comply with those requirements. You must file all required United States federal, state and local tax returns. Our counsel has not rendered an opinion on the state or local tax consequences of an investment in the Units.

(1) We believe the changes in average occupancy from period to period are temporary effects of each propertys specific mix of lease maturities and are not indicative of any known trend. NTS Center was 56% occupied and 98% leased as of December 31, 2010.
Tenant Information
We are not dependent upon any tenant for 10% or more of our revenues. The loss of any one tenant should not have a material adverse effect on our business or financial performance.

Indebtedness
The tables below reflect our outstanding indebtedness from mortgages and notes payable for our properties owned wholly, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, as a consolidated joint venture investment or as an unconsolidated investment in tenants in common as of December 31, 2010. Properties that are not encumbered by mortgages or notes are not listed below. Some of our mortgages and notes bear interest in relation to the Libor Rate.

ITEM 5 - MARKET FOR REGISTRANTS COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Common Stock Market Prices and Distributions
Beginning December 29, 2004, our Units were listed for trading on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol NLP. Beginning December 1, 2008, our Units ceased trading on the American Stock Exchange and now trade on the NYSE Amex under the symbol NLP. The NYSE Amex is the successor to the American Stock Exchange. The approximate number of record holders of our Units at December 31, 2010 was 2,078.
High and low Unit prices for the period January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010 were $5.60 to $3.25, respectively. Quarterly distributions are determined based on current cash balances, cash flow generated by operations and cash reserves needed for future leasing costs, tenant finish costs and capital improvements.
High and low Unit prices for the period January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009 were $5.51 to $2.95, respectively. Quarterly distributions are determined based on current cash balances, cash flow generated by operations and cash reserves needed for future leasing costs, tenant finish costs and capital improvements.
The following table sets forth the price range of our limited partnership units on the NYSE Amex and distributions declared for each quarter during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

We have a policy of paying regular distributions, although there is no assurance as to the payment of future distributions because they depend on, among other things, our future earnings, capital requirements and financial condition. In addition, the payment of distributions is subject to the restrictions described in Part II, Item 8, Note 2, Section O, to the financial statements and discussed in Part II, Item 7-Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
On December 1, 2010, two entities created or controlled by Mr. Nichols commenced pre-arranged trading plans to purchase limited partnership units of NTS Realty pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Act. The trading plans are substantially similar to those previously announced by us in 2009 and 2008. Each of the plans authorize its administrator, Wells Fargo Investments, LLC, to purchase approximately $26,000 and $52,000, respectively, of NTS Realtys limited partnership units from time to time through no later than November 30, 2011. Under the terms of the plans, Mr. Nichols has no discretion or control over the timing, effectuation or the amount of each purchase.
During the year ended December 31, 2010, 73,850 Units were purchased by the entities created or controlled by Mr. Nichols pursuant to the trading plans announced on December 1, 2009. The table below summarizes activity pursuant to these plans for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2010.

ITEM 7 - MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This section provides our Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A).
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and supplementary data appearing in Part II, Item 8.
Critical Accounting Policies
General
A critical accounting policy is one that would materially affect our operations or financial condition, and requires management to make estimates or judgments in certain circumstances. These judgments often result from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Critical accounting policies discussed in this section are not to be confused with accounting principles and methods disclosed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). GAAP requires information in financial statements about accounting principles, methods used and disclosures pertaining to significant estimates. The following disclosures discuss judgments known to management pertaining to trends, events or uncertainties which were taken into consideration upon the application of those policies and the likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported upon taking into consideration different conditions and assumptions.
Impairment and Valuation
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 360 Property, Plant, and Equipment specifies circumstances in which certain long-lived assets must be reviewed for impairment. If this review indicates that the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the sum of its expected future cash flows, the assets carrying value must be written down to fair value. In determining the value of an investment property and whether the investment property is impaired, management considers several factors such as projected rental and vacancy rates, property operating expenses, capital expenditures, interest rates and recent appraisals when available. The capitalization rate used to determine property valuation is based on among others, the market in which the investment property is located, length of leases, tenant financial strength, the economy in general, demographics, environment, property location, visibility, age and physical condition. All of these factors are considered by management in determining the value of any particular investment property. The value of any particular investment property is sensitive to the actual results of any of these factors, either individually or taken as a whole. If the actual results differ from managements judgment, the valuation could be negatively or positively affected.
Acquisitions
Upon acquisition of wholly-owned properties or joint venture investments that are less than wholly-owned, but which we control or for which we are the primary beneficiary, the assets and liabilities purchased are recorded at their fair market value at the date of the acquisition using the acquisition method in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805 Business Combinations. We recognize the net tangible and identified intangible assets based on fair values (including land, buildings, tenant improvements, acquired above and below market leases and the origination cost of acquired in-place leases) and acquired liabilities. The intangible assets recorded are amortized over the weighted average lease lives. We identify any above or below market leases or customer relationship intangibles that exist at the acquisition date. We recognize mortgages and other liabilities at fair market value at the date of the acquisition. We utilize an independent appraiser to assess fair value based on estimated cash flow projections for the tangible assets acquired that utilize discount and capitalization rates deemed appropriate and available market information.
We adopted FASB ASC Topic 805 Business Combinations on January 1, 2009, which requires us to expense acquisition costs as incurred.
Recognition of Rental Income
Under GAAP, we are required to recognize rental income based on the effective monthly rent for each lease. The effective monthly rent is equal to the average monthly rent during the term of the lease, not the stated rent for any particular month. The process, known as straight-lining or stepping rent, generally has the effect of increasing rental revenues during the early phases of a lease and decreasing rental revenues in the latter phases of
a lease. Due to the impact of straight-lining on a historical consolidating basis, cash collected for rent exceeded rental income by approximately $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. Rental income exceeded the cash collected for rent by approximately $0.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. If rental income calculated on a straight-line basis exceeds the cash rent due under the lease, the difference is recorded as an increase in deferred rent receivable and included as a component of accounts receivable on the relevant balance sheet. If the cash rent due under the lease exceeds rental income calculated on a straight-line basis, the difference is recorded as a decrease in deferred rent receivable and is recorded as a decrease of accounts receivable on the relevant balance sheet. We defer recognition of contingent rental income, such as percentage or excess rent, until the specified target that triggers the contingent rental income is achieved. We periodically review the collectability of outstanding receivables. Allowances are generally taken for tenants with outstanding balances due for a period greater than sixty days and tenants with outstanding balances due for a period less than sixty days but that we believe are potentially uncollectible.
Recognition of Lease Termination Income
We recognize lease termination income upon receipt of the income. We accrue lease termination income if there is a signed termination agreement, all of the conditions of the agreement have been met and the tenant is no longer occupying the property.
Cost Capitalization and Depreciation Policies
We review all expenditures and capitalize any item exceeding $2,500 deemed to be a capital improvement with an expected useful life greater than one year. Land, buildings and amenities are stated at cost. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Buildings and improvements have estimated useful lives between 7-30 years, land improvements have estimated useful lives between 5-30 years and amenities have estimated useful lives between 5-30 years. Tenant improvements are generally depreciated over the life of the initial or renewal term of the respective tenant lease. Acquired above and below market leases are amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the related leases as an adjustment to rental income. Acquired in-place lease origination cost is amortized over the life of the lease as a component of amortization expense.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our most liquid asset is our cash and equivalents, which consist of cash and short-term investments, but do not include any restricted cash. Operating income generated by the properties is the primary source from which we generate cash. Other sources of cash include the proceeds from our revolving notes payable. Our main uses of cash relate to capital expenditures, required payments of mortgages and notes payable, distributions and property taxes.
The following table summarizes our approximate sources (uses) of cash flow for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008.

Cash Flow from Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased to approximately $3.1 million from $0.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The increase of approximately $3.0 million was primarily related to an increase in cash provided by results of operations of approximately $3.3 million, a decrease in cash used to pay property taxes of $2.1 million and a decrease in cash used to fund lender held escrows of approximately $1.6 million. The change was partially offset by issuing a note receivable of approximately $3.0 million. In addition, more cash was used to satisfy accounts
payable and accounts payable due to affiliate of approximately $1.1 million which was offset by a $0.6 million decrease in prepaid insurance and leasing commissions.
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased to approximately $0.1 million from $7.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease of approximately $7.8 million was primarily related to cash used for prepayment penalties of approximately $3.8 million, property taxes of approximately $1.5 million, lender held cash escrows of approximately $0.8 million, prepaid insurance of approximately $0.3 million and approximately $0.9 million of loan costs, all related to the December 17, 2009, debt refinancing. We also used approximately $0.9 million to fund lender held cash escrows related to the acquisitions of Golf Brook Apartments and Sabal Park Apartments (June 2009), referred to as our 2009 acquisitions.
Cash Flow from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased to approximately $33.6 million compared to approximately $32.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The increase of approximately $0.9 million was primarily due to an increase in cash used for acquisitions of approximately $4.8 million, a decrease in proceeds from notes receivable of $2.5 million, an increase in cash used for additions to land, buildings and amenities of approximately $0.6 million and to fund our investment in joint venture of approximately $0.3 million. This change was offset by proceeds from the sale of our Outlet Mall retail property (March 2010) and the sale of our Sears Office Building (June 2010) of $7.3 million.
Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $32.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to cash provided by investing activities of approximately $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. The change of approximately $34.1 million was primarily due to no sales of discontinued operations in 2009, while there were proceeds from the sales of discontinued operations of approximately $50.0 million in 2008, primarily from the sale of the Office Portfolio. This change was primarily offset by less cash used in acquisitions (approximately $32.2 million was used in our 2009 acquisitions, while approximately $41.0 million was used in the 2008 acquisition of Parks Edge Apartments (June 2008), referred to as our 2008 acquisition) and less cash used for additions to land, buildings and amenities of approximately $0.1 million. In addition, in 2008, we loaned $3.5 million to the purchaser of the Office Portfolio, with $2.5 million of that balance being repaid in 2009.
Cash Flow from Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased to approximately $19.5 million compared to approximately $43.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The decrease of approximately $24.3 million was primarily due to a decrease in mortgage payable proceeds of approximately $156.0 million, a decrease in contributions from noncontrolling interest holders of approximately $5.4 million and an increase in cash used for distributions to noncontrolling interest holders of approximately $0.1 million. This change was partially offset by a decrease in cash used to pay down our mortgages payable of approximately $126.5 million, an increase in cash provided by our revolving notes payable, net of payments of approximately $8.8 million and a decrease in cash used for additions to loan costs of approximately $1.9 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities increased to approximately $43.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to cash used in financing activities of approximately $10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. Our 2009 activity included proceeds from mortgages payable for our 2009 acquisitions and our December 17, 2009 refinancing of approximately $180.5 million along with contributions from noncontrolling interest holders of approximately $5.6 million, which were partially offset by the payoff of mortgages by our December 17, 2009 refinancing totaling approximately $128.1 million, principal payments on mortgages of approximately $3.4 million, payments on our revolving note payable of approximately $6.5 million, additions to loan cost pertaining to refinancing of approximately $2.1 million and cash distributions of approximately $2.3 million.
Future Liquidity
Our future liquidity depends significantly on our properties occupancy remaining at a level which allows us to make debt payments and have adequate working capital, currently and in the future. If occupancy were to fall below that level and remain at or below that level for a significant period of time, our ability to make payments due under our debt agreements and to continue paying daily operational costs would be materially impaired. In the next twelve months, we intend to operate the properties in a similar manner to their operation in recent years. Cash
reserves, which consist of unrestricted cash as shown on our balance sheet, were approximately $0.2 million on December 31, 2010.
We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements for normal operating expenses from cash generated by operations. In addition, we anticipate generating proceeds from borrowing activities, property sales and/or equity offerings to provide funds for payment of certain debts and obligations. We expect to incur capital costs related to leasing space and making improvements to properties and expect to meet these obligations with the use of funds held in escrow by lenders, proceeds from property sales and/or borrowing activities.
We have approximately $53.0 million of consolidated and unconsolidated secured debt maturing during the next 12 months. It is our intention to extend, repay or refinance this debt at market terms available at the time of the maturities. We are in active discussions with several lenders to address this maturing debt. We believe that we will be able to refinance these debts; however, there is no assurance that we will obtain terms similar to those of the expiring debt and we may have to incur interest rates that are higher than the rates on the expiring debt. The result of higher interest rates would have a negative impact on our results of operations and ability to pay distributions. Further, as part of any refinancing, we may be required to pledge additional assets as collateral and may not be able to achieve the same loan to value ratios on our secured indebtedness. If we are unable to refinance this debt for any reason, we must either pay the remaining balance or borrow additional money to pay off the maturing loan. We may not, however, be able to obtain a new loan, or the terms of the new loan, such as the interest rate or payment schedule, may not be as favorable as the terms of the maturing loan. Additionally, due to the amount of available cash on hand, expected cash generated by operating activities and funds available to us from existing sources of borrowings, there can be no assurance as to our ability to obtain funds necessary to repay the amounts due during the next 12 months. Thus, we may be forced to sell a property at an unfavorable price to pay off the maturing loan or agree to less favorable loan terms.
We made quarterly distributions of $0.05 per unit to our limited partners of record on April 16, 2010, July 16, 2010, October 15, 2010, and January 14, 2011, respectively. We pay distributions, if and when, authorized by our managing general partner using proceeds from advances drawn on our revolving note payable to a bank.
Pursuant to lease agreements signed on or before December 31, 2010, we are obligated to incur expenditures of approximately $1.3 million, primarily for renovations and tenant origination costs necessary to continue leasing our properties. We expect to fund these expenditures by cash on hand, cash generated by operations or borrowings on our debt during the next twelve months. This discussion of future liquidity details our material commitments. We anticipate repaying, seeking renewal or refinancing of our notes and mortgages payable coming due in the next twelve months.
The aggregate availability on our revolving notes payable was approximately $7.7 million as of December 31, 2010.
We intend to seek a renewal of our expiring $10.0 million and $8.2 million revolving notes payable to a bank that mature in the next twelve months, but can offer no assurance that we will be successful in doing so, or that favorable terms of renewal can be obtained.
We expect to receive $1.0 million on or before May 1, 2011 and $3.5 million on or before November 10, 2011, to satisfy our unaffiliated notes receivable.
On October 28, 2010, we entered into a joint venture investment agreement with an unaffiliated third party to invest in a commercial office building totaling approximately 125,000 square feet. The building will be developed on land leased under a 65 year ground lease. The building is being developed by our affiliate, NTS Development Company, with construction expected to be completed in late 2011 or early 2012. The building will be managed by an affiliate of NTS Development Company. We are obligated to contribute $4.9 million, for a 49% ownership interest. We intend to fund our share of this investment with proceeds from our recent property sales, cash on hand, cash from operations or borrowings on new or existing debt. The joint venture has entered into a $10.5 million construction financing agreement with a bank. The joint venture expects to invest a total of $20.5 million in the construction of the building and completion of tenant space.

We may engage in transactions structured as like-kind exchanges of property to obtain favorable tax treatment under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. If we are able to structure an exchange of properties as a like-kind exchange, then any gain we realize from the exchange would not be recognized for federal income tax purposes. The test for determining whether exchanged properties are of like-kind is whether the properties are of the same nature or character.
On December 22, 2010, proceeds of approximately $3.6 million from the sale of our Sears Office Building, were used to fund our Lakes Edge Apartments acquisition in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010 AS COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 2009
AS COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 2008
This section includes our actual results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008. As of December 31, 2010, we owned wholly, as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party, or through joint venture investments with an unaffiliated third party, 6 commercial properties, 15 multifamily properties and 2 retail properties. We generate substantially all of our operating income from property operations.
Net (loss) income from the three years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 was approximately ($11.4) million, ($17.2) million and $7.7 million. The change in net loss for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to 2009, was primarily due to a $3.3 million decrease in interest expense, a $1.8 million increase in gain on sale of discontinued operations, a $0.3 million decrease in discontinued operations, net, and a $0.4 million increase in net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests. There were no other material offsetting changes in net loss for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. Our decrease in net income for the year ended December 31, 2009 as compared to 2008, was primarily due to an $18.9 million decrease in our gain on sale of discontinued operations, an increase of $4.8 million in interest expense and a decrease in operating income of approximately $1.7 million primarily related to our acquisitions of Golf Brook Apartments and Sabal Park Apartments (June 2009), referred to as our 2009 acquisitions and our acquisition of Parks Edge Apartments (June 2008), referred to as our 2008 acquisition, partially offset by an increase of approximately $0.5 million in net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests as the result of the 2009 acquisitions.

In addition, there was a $0.5 million increase in rental income and tenant reimbursements across the commercial segment primarily related to an increase in occupancy at Lakeshore Business Center Phase II.

Management Fees
Management fees from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were approximately $2.4 million and $2.2 million, respectively. The increase of $0.2 million, or 9%, was primarily the result of our 2009 acquisitions of approximately $0.1 million with the remaining fluctuation spreading across the remaining multifamily segment. There were no other material offsetting changes in management fees for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.
Management fees from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were approximately $2.2 million and $2.0 million, respectively.

There were no other material offsetting changes in management fees for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Pursuant to various management agreements, NTS Development receives property management fees equal to 5% of the gross collected revenue from our properties. This includes our wholly-owned properties, our consolidated joint venture properties and properties owned by our wholly-owned subsidiaries. NTS Development receives property management fees from our unconsolidated properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party equal to 3.5% of their gross collected revenue under separate management agreements. We were the beneficiary of a preferential ownership interest, disproportionately greater than our initial cash investment in each property owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party. NTS Development has agreed to accept a lower management fee for the properties we own as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party in exchange for a larger potential disposition fee. Disposition fees of up to 6% of the gross sales price may be paid to NTS Development for the sale of one of our properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third
party. Management fees are calculated as a percentage of cash collections and are recorded on the accrual basis. As a result, the fluctuations in revenue between years will differ from the fluctuations of management fee expense.
Property Taxes and Insurance
Property taxes and insurance from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were approximately $6.0 million and $6.5 million, respectively. The decrease of $0.5 million, or 8%, was primarily due to a decrease of $0.7 million in property taxes at our Indianapolis, IN apartment properties due to lower property tax assessments and rates. The decrease was partially offset by $0.1 million in increased property taxes on our 2009 acquisitions and $0.1 million in increased property insurance on our Lakeshore Business Center properties. There were no other material offsetting changes in property taxes and insurance for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.
Property taxes and insurance from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were approximately $6.5 million and $5.6 million, respectively. The increase of $0.9 million, or 16%, was primarily due to a $1.0 million increase in property taxes and insurance from our 2009 and 2008 acquisitions and a $0.4 million increase in property taxes at Willow Lake Apartments due to higher property tax assessments. The increases were partially offset by a $0.5 million decrease in property taxes at The Lakes Apartments, Castle Creek Apartments and Lake Clearwater Apartments. There were no other material offsetting changes in property taxes and insurance for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

Depreciation and amortization from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $18.0 million and $17.3 million, respectively.

Interest expense from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $12.9 million and $16.2 million, respectively.

(1) We are party to numerous small operating leases for office equipment such as copiers, postage machines and fax machines, which represent an insignificant obligation.
(2) We are party to several annual maintenance agreements with vendors for such items as outdoor maintenance, pool service and security systems, which represent an insignificant obligation.
ITEM 7A - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our primary market risk exposure with regard to financial instruments is expected to be our exposure to changes in interest rates. We refinanced substantially all of our debt subsequent to our merger with instruments which bear interest at a fixed rate, with the exception of approximately $74.2 million bearing interest at variable rates. We anticipate that a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates would increase interest expense on our variable rate debt by approximately $0.7 million annually.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of NTS Realty Holdings Limited Partnership (Partnership) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, partners equity and cash flows for the years then ended. The Partnerships management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Partnership is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnerships internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits also included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NTS REALTY HOLDINGS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 - Organization
NTS Realty Holdings Limited Partnership (NTS Realty), is a limited partnership, organized in the state of Delaware in 2003 and was formed by merger.
We are in the business of developing, constructing, owning and operating multifamily properties, commercial and retail real estate. As of December 31, 2010, we owned wholly, as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party or through joint venture investments with an unaffiliated third party, 23 properties, comprised of 6 office and business centers, 15 multifamily properties and 2 retail properties. The properties are located in and around Louisville (6) and Lexington (1), Kentucky; Fort Lauderdale (3) and Orlando (3), Florida; Indianapolis (4), Indiana; Memphis (1) and Nashville (2), Tennessee; Richmond (2), Virginia; and Atlanta (1), Georgia. Our office and business centers aggregate approximately 607,000 square feet. Our multifamily properties contain 4,391 units. Our retail properties contain approximately 47,000 square feet.
The terms we, us or our, as the context requires, may refer to NTS Realty, its wholly-owned properties, properties held by wholly-owned subsidaries, its interests in consolidated or unconsolidated joint venture investments or interests in properties held as tenants in common with an unaffiliated third party.
Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies
A) Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all wholly-owned properties and properties that are less than wholly-owned, but which we control or for which we are the primary beneficiary. We consolidate a variable interest entity, or VIE, when we are determined to be the primary beneficiary based on the qualitative factors affecting:
· Our power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly affect the variable interest entitys economic performance; and
· Our obligation to absorb losses of the variable interest entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity or the right to receive benefits from the variable interest entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity.
Our determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE considers all relationships between us and the VIE, including management agreements and other contractual arrangements, when determining the party with the controlling financial interest, as defined, by accounting standards. Effective January 1, 2010, we adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-17, Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities (ASU 2009-17), which amends the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 810, Consolidation (FASB ASC Topic 810). The amendment to FASB ASC Topic 810 revises the consolidation guidance for variable interest entities (VIEs) focusing on a qualitative evaluation of the conditions subjecting the entity to consolidation. There have been no changes during 2010 in conclusions about whether an entity qualifies as a VIE or whether we are the primary beneficiary of any previously identified VIE. During the year ended December 31, 2010, we did not provide financial or other support to a previously identified VIE that we were not previously contractually obligated to provide. Our unconsolidated joint venture and our properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party are accounted for under the equity method. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
On October 28, 2010, we entered into a joint venture investment agreement with an unaffiliated third party to invest in a commercial office building totaling approximately 125,000 square feet. The building is being developed by our affiliate, NTS Development Company, with construction expected to be completed in late 2011 or early 2012 on land leased under a 65 year ground lease. The building will be managed by an affiliate of NTS Development Company. We are obligated to contribute $4.9 million, for a 49% ownership interest. The joint venture has entered into a $10.5 million construction financing agreement with a bank. We are a guarantor under this agreement and are proportionately liable for this obligation, limited to our 49% ownership interest. There was no balance drawn on this obligation by this joint venture at December 31, 2010. The joint venture expects to invest a total of $20.5 million in the construction of the building and completion of tenant space.
This joint venture, Campus One, LLC, is a variable interest entity. We are not the primary beneficiary. NTS Corporation through its subsidiaries, NTS Development Company and NTS Management Company, bear the right to receive significant benefit through its agreements as developer and manager, respectively. NTS Development Company is responsible for the development of the building on time and within budget. The development fee for these services is 2% of the projected costs, not exceeding $400,000. NTS Management Company is responsible for leasing and managing the building and is entitled to earn leasing commissions, management fees, construction management fees, asset management fees and a disposition fee for its services. Our interest in this variable interest entity is accounted for using the equity method and is reflected as investment in and advances to joint venture on our consolidated balance sheet.
B) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
FASB ASC Topic 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures requires companies to determine fair value based on the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability to a market participant. FASB ASC Topic 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity specific measurement.
FASB ASC Topic 820 requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:
· Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
· Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
· Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
We did not have any material financial assets or liabilities that are required to be recorded at fair value as of December 31, 2010 or December 31, 2009.
C) Financial Instruments
FASB ASC Topic 825 Financial Instruments requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in both interim and annual financial statements.
Certain of our assets and liabilities are considered financial instruments. Fair value estimates, methods and assumptions are set forth below.
The book values of cash and equivalents, trade receivables and trade payables are considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.
Cash and equivalents and cash and equivalents restricted The carrying amount of these assets and liabilities approximates fair value as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, due to the short-term nature of such accounts.
Notes receivable As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, we determined the estimated fair values of our notes receivable were approximately $4.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively, by discounting future cash receipts utilizing a discount rate equivalent to the rate at which similar notes receivable would be originated at the reporting date. These are classified as other assets on our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2010 and 2009.
Mortgages and notes payable As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, we determined the estimated fair values of our mortgages and notes payable, were approximately $274.3 million and $246.0 million, respectively, by discounting future cash payments utilizing a discount rate equivalent to the rate at which similar instruments would be originated at the reporting date.
D) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the FASB clarified that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in a consolidated entity which should be reported as equity in the parents consolidated financial statements and also requires an acquirer to measure the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at their fair values on the acquisition date, with goodwill being the excess value over the net
identifiable assets acquired. The guidance also requires acquisition related costs to be expensed as incurred. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. On January 1, 2009, we adopted the guidance which did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB also issued an amendment to the accounting and disclosure requirements for the consolidation of variable interest entities, or VIEs. This amendment requires an enterprise to perform a qualitative analysis when determining whether or not it must consolidate a VIE. The amendment also requires an enterprise to continuously reassess whether it must consolidate a VIE. Additionally, the amendment requires enhanced disclosures about an enterprises involvement with VIEs and any significant change in risk exposure due to that involvement, as well as how its involvement with VIEs impacts the enterprises financial statements. Finally, an enterprise will be required to disclose significant judgments and assumptions used to determine whether or not to consolidate a VIE. This amendment is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. On January 1, 2010 we adopted the guidance which did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In January 2010, the FASB also issued an amendment to require additional disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The revised guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The amendment concerns disclosure only and did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
E) Tax Status
We are treated as a partnership or pass-through entity for federal income tax purposes. As such, no provisions for income taxes were made. The taxable income or loss was passed through to the holders of the partnership units for inclusion on their individual income tax returns.
A reconciliation of net income for financial statement purposes versus that for income tax reporting is as follows:

F) Use of Estimates and Reclassifications in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G) Financial Statement Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform with December 31, 2010 classifications. Our Outlet Mall retail property and our Sears Office Building were reclassified during 2009 from continuing operations to discontinued operations and are classified as held for sale on our balance sheet for the year ended December 31, 2009. These reclassifications have not had a material impact on the related financial statement line items on our consolidated balance sheet or statement of operations and no effect on previously reported operating results or partners equity.
H) Cash and Equivalents
Cash and equivalents include cash on hand and short-term, highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less. We have a cash management program, which provides for the overnight investment of excess cash balances. Under an agreement with a bank, excess cash is invested in a mutual fund for U.S. government and agency securities each night.
I) Cash and Equivalents - Restricted
Cash and equivalents - restricted represents cash on hand and short-term, highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less which have been escrowed with certain mortgage companies and banks for property taxes, insurance and tenant improvements in accordance with certain loan and lease agreements and certain security deposits.
J) Basis of Property and Depreciation
Land, buildings and amenities are stated at cost. Costs directly associated with the acquisition, development and construction of a project are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are 5-30 years for land improvements, 7-30 years for buildings and improvements and 5-30 years for amenities. Tenant improvements are generally depreciated over the life of the initial or renewal term of the respective tenant lease. The aggregate cost of our properties for federal tax purposes is approximately $316.6 million at December 31, 2010.
Depreciation expense from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 was approximately as follows:

Depreciation expense included in discontinued operations was approximately $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
K) Business Combinations and Acquisitions
FASB ASC Topic 805 Business Combinations, requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to measure the assets acquired, liabilities assumed (including contingencies) and any noncontrolling interests at their fair values on the acquisition date. The statement also requires that acquisition-related transaction costs be expensed as incurred and acquired research and development value be capitalized. In addition, acquisition-related restructuring costs are to be capitalized. The provisions of FASB ASC Topic 805 were effective for acquisitions starting January 1, 2009.
Upon acquisition of wholly-owned properties or joint venture investments that are less than wholly-owned, but which we control or for which we are the primary beneficiary, the assets and liabilities purchased are recorded at their fair market value at the date of the acquisition using the acquisition method in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805 Business Combinations. We recognize the net tangible and identified intangible assets for each of the properties acquired based on fair values (including land, buildings, tenant improvements, acquired above and below market leases and the origination cost of acquired in-place leases) and acquired liabilities. The intangible assets recorded are amortized over the weighted average lease lives. We identify any above or below market leases or customer relationship intangibles that exist at the acquisition date. We recognize mortgages and other liabilities at fair market value at the date of the acquisition. We utilize an independent appraiser to assess fair value based on estimated cash flow projections for the tangible assets acquired that utilize discount and capitalization rates deemed appropriate and available market information. We expense acquisition costs as incurred.
FASB ASC Topic 360 Property, Plant, and Equipment specifies circumstances in which certain long-lived assets must be reviewed for impairment. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the sum of its expected future cash flows, the assets carrying value must be written down to fair value. In determining the value of an investment property and whether the investment property is impaired, management considers several factors such as projected rental and vacancy rates, property operating expenses, capital expenditures and interest rates. The capitalization rate used to determine property valuation is based on the market in which the investment property is located, length of leases, tenant financial strength, the economy in general, demographics, environment, property location, visibility,
age and physical condition among others. All of these factors are considered by management in determining the value of any particular investment property. The value of any particular investment property is sensitive to the actual results of any of these factors, either individually or taken as a whole. If the actual results differ from managements judgment, the valuation could be negatively or positively affected. Application of this standard for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, did not result in an impairment loss.
L) Accounts Payable Due to Affiliate
Accounts payable due to affiliate includes amounts owed to NTS Development Company and/or its affiliate NTS Management Company (NTS Development) for reimbursement of salary and overhead expenses and fees for services rendered as provided for in our various management agreements.
M) Revenue Recognition
Our commercial and retail properties revenues are accounted for as operating leases. We accrue minimum rents on a straight-line basis over the initial or renewal terms of their respective leases. Certain of our retail tenants are also required to pay overage rents based on sales over a stated base amount during the lease year. We recognize overage rents only when each tenants sales exceeds a specified sales threshold. We structure our leases to allow us to recover a significant portion of our real estate taxes, property operating and repairs and maintenance expenses from our commercial tenants. Property operating expenses typically include utility, insurance, security, janitorial, landscaping and other administrative expenses. We accrue reimbursements from tenants for recoverable portions of all these expenses as revenue in the applicable period. We also receive estimated payments for these reimbursements from substantially all our tenants throughout the year. We do this to reduce the risk of loss on uncollectible accounts once we perform the final year-end billings for recoverable expenditures. We recognize the difference between estimated recoveries and the final billed amounts in the subsequent year, and we believe these differences are not material in any period presented.
Our multifamily communities have resident leases with terms generally of twelve months or less. We recognize rental revenue on an accrual basis when due from residents. Rental concessions and other inducements to the leases are recognized to revenue on a straight-line basis over the life of the respective leases. In accordance with our standard lease terms, rental payments are generally due on a monthly basis.
We recognize revenue in accordance with each tenants lease agreement. Certain of our lease agreements are structured to include scheduled and specified rent increases over the lease term. For financial reporting purposes, the income from these leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the initial lease term. Accrued income from these leases in accounts receivable was approximately $1.2 million, $1.3 million and $1.0 million at December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. All commissions paid to commercial leasing agents and incentives paid to tenants are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the applicable initial or renewal lease term.
We recognize lease termination income upon receipt of the income. We accrue lease termination income if there is a signed termination agreement, all of the conditions of the agreement have been met and the tenant is no longer occupying the property.
N) Advertising
We expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was immaterial to us during 2010, 2009, and 2008.
O) Distribution Policy
We pay distributions if and when authorized by our managing general partner using proceeds from advances drawn on our revolving note payable to a bank. We are required to pay distributions on a quarterly basis, commencing in the first quarter of 2005, no less than sixty-five percent (65%) of our net cash flow from operations as this term is defined in regulations promulgated by the Treasury Department under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; provided that if a law is enacted or existing law is modified or interpreted in a manner that subjects us to taxation as a corporation or otherwise subjects us to entity level taxation for federal, state or local income tax purposes, we will adjust the amount distributed to reflect our obligation to pay tax. Any distribution other than a distribution with respect to the final quarter of a calendar year shall be made no later than forty-five (45) days after the last day of such quarter based on our estimate of net cash flow from operations for the year. Any distribution with respect to the final quarter of a calendar year shall be made no later than ninety (90)
days after the last day of such quarter based on actual net cash flow from operations for the year, adjusted for any excess or insufficient distributions made with respect to the first three quarters of the calendar year.
Net cash flow from operations may be reduced by the amount of reserves as determined by us each quarter. We will establish these reserves for, among other things, working capital or capital improvement needs. Therefore, there is no assurance that we will have net cash flow from operations from which to pay distributions in the future. For example, our partnership agreement permits our managing general partner to reinvest sales or refinancing proceeds in new and existing properties or to create reserves to fund future capital expenditures. Because net cash flow from operations is calculated after reinvesting sales or refinancing proceeds or establishing reserves, we may not have any net cash flow from operations from which to pay distributions.
Note 3 Concentration of Credit Risk
We own and operate wholly, as a tenant in common with an affiliated third party or through joint venture investments with an unaffiliated third party, commercial, multifamily and retail properties in Louisville and Lexington, Kentucky; Fort Lauderdale and Orlando, Florida; Indianapolis, Indiana; Memphis and Nashville, Tennessee; Richmond, Virginia; and Atlanta, Georgia.
Our financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and equivalents and cash and equivalents-restricted. We maintain our cash accounts primarily with banks located in Kentucky.

Based on the borrowing rates currently available to us for loans with similar terms and average maturities, the fair value of long-term debt on December 31, 2010, was approximately $274.0 million.
At December 31, 2010, our total availability to draw on our revolving notes payable was $7.7 million.
Interest paid for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, was approximately $11.8 million and $16.2 million, respectively.
Our mortgages may be prepaid but are generally subject to a yield-maintenance premium. Certain mortgages and notes payable contain covenants and requirements that we maintain specified debt limits and ratios related to our debt balances and property values. We complied with all covenants and requirements at December 31, 2010 except for our mortgage payable to a bank with a $15.0 million balance and our revolving note payable to a bank with a $6.0 million balance. We are currently seeking a waiver of the debt service coverage ratio requirement for these obligations. Failure to obtain a waiver would require us to pay approximately $2.2 million of the revolving note balance to effect compliance with the debt service coverage ratio requirement if the lender notifies us we are in default. We anticipate renewing or refinancing our mortgages and notes payable coming due within the next twelve months.
Scheduled maturities of debt are as follows:

Note 8 - Related Party Transactions
Pursuant to various management agreements, NTS Development receives fees for a variety of services performed for our benefit. NTS Development also receives fees under separate management agreements for each of our consolidated joint venture properties and unconsolidated joint venture properties and our properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party and properties owned by our eight wholly-owned subsidiaries financed through Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC). Property management fees are paid in an amount equal to 5% of the gross collected revenue from our properties. This includes our wholly-owned properties, consolidated joint venture properties and properties owned by our eight wholly-owned subsidiaries financed through FHLMC. Fees are paid in an amount equal to 3.5% of the gross collected revenue from our unconsolidated properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party. We were the beneficiary of a preferential ownership interest, disproportionately greater than our initial cash investment in each property owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party. Construction supervision fees are paid in an amount equal to 5% of the costs incurred which relate to capital improvements and significant repairs. NTS Development receives commercial leasing fees equal to 4% of the gross rental amount for new leases and 2% of the gross rental amount for new leases in which a broker is used and for renewals or extensions. Disposition fees are paid to NTS Development in an amount of 1% to 4% of the aggregate sales price of a property pursuant to our management agreement and up to a 6% fee upon disposition on our properties owned as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party under separate management agreements. NTS Development has agreed to accept a lower management fee for the properties we own as a tenant in common with an unaffiliated third party in exchange for a larger potential disposition fee. NTS Development is reimbursed its actual costs for services rendered to NTS Realty.
Employee costs are allocated among NTS Realty, other affiliates of our managing general partner and for the benefit of third parties, so that a full time employee can be shared by multiple entities. Each employees services, which are dedicated to a particular entitys operations, are allocated as a percentage of each employees costs to that entity. We only reimburse charges from NTS Development Company for actual costs of employee services incurred for our benefit.
We were charged the following amounts pursuant to our various agreements with NTS Development for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008. These charges include items which have been expensed as operating expenses reimbursed to affiliate or professional and administrative expenses reimbursed to affiliate and items that have been capitalized as other assets or as land, buildings and amenities. Certain of these items are included in our results of discontinued operations.

Note 9 - Commitments and Contingencies
We, as an owner of real estate, are subject to various environmental laws of federal, state and local governments.

From time to time, we are involved in litigation and other legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of business. There are no pending material legal proceedings to which we are subject.

(1) Gain of approximately $0.5 million.
(2) Gain of approximately $1.2 million.
(3) Aggregate gain of approximately $18.9 million.
We may engage in transactions structured as like-kind exchanges of property to obtain favorable tax treatment under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. If we are able to structure an exchange of properties as a like-kind exchange, then any gain we realize from the exchange would not be recognized for federal income tax purposes. The test for determining whether exchanged properties are of like-kind is whether the properties are of the same nature or character.
On December 22, 2010, proceeds of approximately $3.6 million from the sale of our Sears Office Building, in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, were used to fund our Lakes Edge Apartments acquisition.
We have presented separately as discontinued operations in all periods the results of operations for the following properties:

Note 13 Deferred Compensation Plans
Officer Plan
On December 6, 2006, our managing general partner, NTS Realty Capital, established the NTS Realty Capital Officer Deferred Compensation Plan (the Officer Plan). The Officer Plan permits each eligible officer (the Participant) to receive an annual equity bonus of our phantom units, as approved by the Board of Directors, on a deferred basis. To be eligible, each Participant must be a designated officer on January 1 and December 1 of any year in which the Officer Plan is in effect. The Officer Plan is unfunded and unsecured. Amounts deferred by individual officers are an obligation of NTS Realty.
Participants may elect to defer the receipt of the annual equity bonus under this plan or receive the bonus in the year that it is earned. Participants may elect to defer receipt until their death, disability, separation of service, or a date specified by the Participant.
An account is maintained for each Participant in the Officer Plan, with a balance equivalent to a phantom investment in NTS Realty units. A Participants interest in an account is valued by multiplying the number of phantom units credited by the fair market value of NTS Realty units at the respective date. Participants are 100% vested at all times in the value of the account. All Participants will be paid based on the value of their account.
During the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, each Participant elected to defer receipt of the annual equity bonus. Therefore, each Participants account was credited with 1,690; 1,004 and 841 phantom units, respectively, including dividend reinvestment as approved by the Board of Directors. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, liabilities of approximately $122,400 and $100,000, the fair market value of 34,195 and 22,365 of our units, respectively, was included in our Other Liabilities. The obligation is recorded as a liability because no units will be issued in connection with this plan. The obligation amount may vary according to the market value of our units.
Director Plan
On November 7, 2006, NTS Realty Capital, established the NTS Realty Capital Directors Deferred Compensation Plan (the Director Plan). The Director Plan permits each eligible member of NTS Realtys Board of Directors (the Participant) to receive an annual equity bonus of our phantom units, as approved by the Board of Directors, on a deferred basis. To be eligible, each Participant must be considered to be independent under the standards promulgated from time to time by the New York Stock Exchange. The Director Plan is unfunded and unsecured. Amounts deferred by individual directors are an obligation of NTS Realty.
Participants may elect to defer under the Director Plan some or all of their annual retainer. Participants may elect to defer receipt until their death, disability, separation of service, or a date specified by the Participant.
An account is maintained for each Participant in the Director Plan, with a balance equivalent to a phantom investment in NTS Realty units. A Participants interest in an account is valued by multiplying the number of phantom units credited by the fair market value of NTS Realty units at the respective date. Participants are 100% vested at all times in the value of the account. All Participants will be paid based on the value of their account.
During the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, each Participant elected to defer receipt of some or all, of his annual retainer except for one Participant which elected to be paid the annual equity bonus. Therefore, each Participants account was credited with 4,544; 4,344 and 3,528 phantom units, respectively including dividend reinvestment. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, liabilities of approximately $159,000 and $137,600, the fair market value of 44,418 and 30,786 of our units, respectively, were included in our Other Liabilities. The obligation is recorded as a liability because no units will be issued in connection with this plan. The obligation amount may vary according to the market value of our units.
Compensation expense for 2010, 2009 and 2008 under the Officer and Director Plans totaled approximately $43,800, $121,500 and $32,600, respectively.
ITEM 9 - CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
On July 24, 2009, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of NTS Realty Capital terminated the engagement of Ernst & Young LLP (E&Y) as NTS Realtys independent certifying accountant. E&Ys report on NTS Realtys consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the year ended December 31, 2008, as well as the interim period preceding the dismissal, there were no disagreements or reportable events of the kind described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K between NTS Realty and E&Y on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of E&Y, would have caused them to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreements or reportable events in connection with their reports. However, NTS Realty did have a material weakness in internal accounting controls as disclosed in its 2008 Form 10-K.
NTS Realty provided E&Y with a copy of the foregoing disclosures prior to July 24, 2009, the date of the 8-K filing of this matter and requested that E&Y furnish NTS Realty with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of E&Ys letter to the SEC, dated July 29, 2009, was filed as Exhibit 16 to the 8-K filing dated July 24, 2009.
On July 24, 2009, the Audit Committee also approved the engagement of BKD, LLP as NTS Realtys new independent certifying accountant. During the two most recent years and the subsequent interim period to the date of engagement, NTS Realty did not consult with BKD, LLP regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) or (ii) of Regulation S-K.
ITEM 9A - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures-As of December 31, 2010, we, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2010.
Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting-Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate or be circumvented.
Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. In making this assessment, management used the criteria established in Internal Controls-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or COSO. Based on managements assessment and the criteria established by COSO, management believes that we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting-There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2010, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders, through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise, during the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2010.
