Assets Held-for-Sale
The following table illustrates the number of sold or held-for-sale properties in this Report:
Held-for-Sale at September 30, 2021Sold Year-to-Date in 2021Sold in 2020Total
 Properties sold or classified as held-for-sale429740

At September 30, 2021, the properties that met the criteria to be classified as held for sale consisted of four wholly-owned properties. None of these held-for-sale properties met the criteria to be classified within discontinued operations.
Of these four properties, three are wholly-owned properties leased by our largest tenant, which constitute the third tranche of assets to be contributed to a 20% owned unconsolidated joint venture (see Note 6). We expect to close the third tranche in early 2022. In addition, the other held-for-sale property is a recently completed building, which was leased by our largest tenant and was sold in early October 2021.
The following table illustrates aggregate balance sheet information for held-for-sale properties (in thousands):
