Non-Recourse Property Debt and Credit Agreement | Non-Recourse Property Debt and Credit Agreement Non-Recourse Property Debt We finance our apartment communities primarily using long-dated, fixed-rate borrowings, each of which is collateralized by a single apartment community and is non-recourse to us. The following table summarizes our property debt related to assets classified as held for use at December 31, 2015 and 2014 (dollars in thousands):
Fixed rate property debt matures at various dates through February 2061, and has interest rates that range from 2.28% to 8.50%, with a weighted average interest rate of 5.10%. Principal and interest are generally payable monthly or in monthly interest-only payments with balloon payments due at maturity. At December 31, 2015, each of our fixed rate loans payable related to apartment communities classified as held for use were secured by one of 153 apartment communities that had an aggregate gross book value of $6.7 billion. Variable rate property debt matures at various dates through July 2033, and has interest rates that range from 0.05% to 1.86%, with a weighted average interest rate of 1.55%. Principal and interest on this debt is generally payable in semi-annual installments with balloon payments due at maturity. At December 31, 2015, our variable rate property debt related to apartment communities classified as held for use were each secured by one of four apartment communities that had an aggregate gross book value of $165.8 million. Our non-recourse property debt instruments contain covenants common to the type of borrowing, and at December 31, 2015, we were in compliance with all such covenants. As of December 31, 2015, the scheduled principal amortization and maturity payments for our non-recourse property debt related to apartment communities classified as held for use are as follows (in thousands):
As of December 31, 2015, our unencumbered pool included 25 consolidated apartment communities and had an estimated fair value of $1.8 billion. At December 31, 2015, we also had two recently acquired consolidated apartment communities which we anticipate encumbering but for which financing was not yet in place. Credit Agreement We have a Senior Secured Credit Agreement with a syndicate of financial institutions, which we refer to as the Credit Agreement. Our Credit Agreement provides for $600.0 million of revolving loan commitments. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate set forth on a pricing grid, which rate varies based on our leverage (either at LIBOR, plus 1.35%, or, at our option, Prime plus 0.35% at December 31, 2015). The Credit Agreement matures in September 2017, and may be extended for an additional one-year period, subject to certain conditions. The Credit Agreement provides that we may make distributions to our investors during any four consecutive quarters in an aggregate amount that does not exceed the greater of 95% of our Funds From Operations for such period, subject to certain non-cash adjustments, or such amount as may be necessary to maintain Aimco’s REIT status. As of December 31, 2015, we had $27.0 million of outstanding borrowings under our Credit Agreement, and we had the capacity to borrow $536.6 million, net of the outstanding borrowings and $36.4 million for undrawn letters of credit backed by the Credit Agreement. The interest rate on our outstanding borrowings was 1.59% at December 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2014, we had $112.3 million of outstanding borrowings under our Credit Agreement, and the interest rate on our outstanding borrowings was 2.08%. The proceeds of revolving loans are generally used for working capital and other short-term purposes. |
