Our investment in mortgage loans receivable is classified as Level 3. The fair value is determined using a widely accepted valuation technique, discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows. The discount rate is determined using our assumption on market conditions adjusted for market and credit risk and current returns on our investments. The discount rate used to value our future cash inflows of the mortgage loans receivable at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was 9.4% and 9.5%, respectively.

Our investments in notes receivable are classified as Level 3. The discount rate is determined using our assumption on market conditions adjusted for market and credit risk and current returns on our investments.

Our revolving line of credit and term loans bear interest at a variable interest rate.

(4)

Our obligation under our senior unsecured notes is classified as Level 3 and thus the fair value is determined using a widely accepted valuation technique, discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows. The discount rate is measured based upon management’s estimates of rates currently prevailing for comparable loans available to us, and instruments of comparable maturities. At March 31, 2022, the discount rate used to value our future cash outflow of our senior unsecured notes was 4.25% for those maturing before year 2030 and 4.50% for those maturing at or beyond year 2030. At December 31, 2021, the discount rate used to value our future cash outflow of our senior unsecured notes was 3.00% for those maturing before year 2030 and 3.25% for those maturing at or beyond year 2030.
