5. REAL ESTATE AND RELATED LEASE INTANGIBLES, NET

The market conditions due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic disruption have broadly impacted the commercial real estate sector. As expected, the net leased commercial real estate properties, which comprise the majority of our portfolio, have remained minimally impacted as the majority of the net leased properties in our real estate portfolio are necessity-based businesses and have remained open and stable during the COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to actively monitor the diversified commercial real estate properties for both the immediate and long term impact of the pandemic on the buildings, the tenants, the business plans and the ability to execute those business plans.
