 purposes of this allocation is inclusive of acquisition costs which typically include legal fees, title fees, payments made to cure tax, utility and homeowners’ association (“HOA”) fees, as well as other closing costs. SFR properties are classified as held-for-investment and are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation expense and impairment. From time to time, the Company may identify SFR properties to be sold. If the Company identifies a property to be sold, depreciation on the property is ceased, the property is measured at the lower of its carrying amount or its fair value less estimated costs to sell and is presented separately from SFR properties classified as held-for-investment.Initial costs to acquire, renovate and prepare SFR properties to be leased are capitalized as a component of each residential real estate property using specific identification and relative allocation methodologies, including renovation costs and other costs associated with activities that are directly related to preparing the properties for use as rental real estate. Other costs include interest costs, property taxes, property insurance, utilities and HOA fees. The capitalization period associated with renovation activities begins at the time that such activities commence and conclude at the time that an SFR property is available to be leased. Once a property is ready for its intended use, expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs thereafter are expensed to operations as incurred, while expenditures that improve or extend the life of a property, such as certain furniture and fixtures additions, are capitalized. The determination of which costs to capitalize requires judgment and can involve many factors with no one factor necessarily determinative. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance recognized immediately are included in general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.Except for land, costs capitalized in connection with SFR property acquisitions are depreciated over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis generally over 40 years. The depreciation period commences once renovations are complete and the property is ready for its intended use. For those costs capitalized in connection with renovation activities and those capitalized on an ongoing basis, the average useful life is approximately 15 years. SFR properties are continuously monitored to assess whether there have been any events or changes in circumstances indicating that the carrying amount may be impaired and not recoverable. Significant indicators of impairment may include, but are not limited to, declines in home values, rental rates and occupancy percentages, as well as significant changes in the economy. To
