Other Information.

On February 29, 2016, through a joint venture in which we have a 60% interest, we acquired a 392 unit multi-family property located in Southaven, Mississippi for $35 million, inclusive of $28 million of mortgage debt obtained in connection with the acquisition. The mortgage matures in 2026, is interest only until 2021, and bears an interest rate of 4.24%.

On March 2, 2016, we sold a 464 unit multi-family property in Cordova, Tennessee for $31.1 million. We anticipate recognizing a gain of $6.1 million on the sale, of which approximately $1.9 million will be allocated to the non-controlling interest.
