Our equity investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, which we account for utilizing the equity method of accounting, consists of three funds (collectively, the "Funds"). As of September 30, 2021, we had two discretionary investment funds in which we had an ownership interest of 31.3% in each of these funds. We hold a 40% ownership interest in a third fund with an unaffiliated third party which may hold multifamily investments of approximately $360 million; this third fund did not own any properties as of September 30, 2021 or 2020. We provide property and asset management and other services to the Funds which own operating properties and we may also provide construction and development services to the Funds which own properties under development.
