Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Business and Organization | Note 1—Business and Organization Business The Company operates its business through one reportable segment by acquiring, managing and capitalizing ground leases. The Company also manages entities focused on ground leases (refer to Note 6) and serves as external manager to Star Holdings, a Maryland statutory trust that holds the legacy non-ground lease assets previously held by iStar (“Star Holdings”). Ground leases are long-term contracts between the landlord (the Company) and a tenant or leaseholder. Ground leases generally represent ownership of the land underlying commercial real estate projects that is net leased by the fee owner of the land to the owners/operators of the real estate projects built thereon (“Ground Leases”). Under a Ground Lease, the tenant is generally responsible for all property operating expenses, such as maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance and is also responsible for development costs and capital expenditures. Ground Leases are typically long-term (base terms ranging from 30 The Company intends to target investments in long-term Ground Leases in which: (i) the initial cost of its Ground Lease represents 30% to 45% of the combined value of the land and buildings and improvements thereon as if there was no Ground Lease on the land (“Combined Property Value”); (ii) the ratio of property net operating income to the Ground Lease payment due the Company (“Ground Rent Coverage”) is between 2.0x to 4.5x, and for this purpose the Company uses estimates of the stabilized property net operating income if it does not receive current tenant information and for properties under construction or in transition, in each case based on leasing activity at the property and available market information, including leasing activity at comparable properties in the relevant market; and (iii) the Ground Lease contains contractual rent escalation clauses or percentage rent that participates in gross revenues generated by the commercial real estate on the land. A Ground Lease lessor (the Company) typically has the right to regain possession of its land and take ownership of the buildings and improvements thereon upon tenant default and the termination of the Ground Lease on account of such default. The Company believes that the Ground Lease structure provides an opportunity for potential value accretion through the reversion to the Company, as the Ground Lease owner, of the buildings and improvements on the land at the expiration or earlier termination of the lease, for no additional consideration from the Company. Prior to the Merger, Old SAFE was managed by SFTY Manager, LLC (the “Former Manager”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of iStar, pursuant to a management agreement. Old SAFE had no employees, as the Former Manager provided all services to it. Old SAFE relied on the extensive investment origination and sourcing platform of its Former Manager to actively promote the benefits of the Ground Lease structure to prospective Ground Lease tenants. Subsequent to the Merger, the Company is internally managed. Organization As part of a restructuring in connection with the Merger (the “Caret Restructuring”), Safehold Operating Partnership LP converted into a Delaware limited liability company and renamed itself “Safehold GL Holdings LLC” (“Portfolio Holdings”), with the Company as its managing member. The Company conducts all of its business and owns all of its properties through Portfolio Holdings. In addition, holders of Caret units in Old SAFE’s subsidiary, Caret Ventures LLC (“Caret Ventures”), contributed their interests in Caret Ventures to Portfolio Holdings in return for Caret units issued by Portfolio Holdings. Following the restructuring, 100% of the equity interests in Caret Ventures is held by Portfolio Holdings. The Company, management of the Company, employees and former employees of the Company, affiliates of MSD Partners (as defined below) and other outside investors own the issued and outstanding equity of Portfolio Holdings. Merger Transaction The Company considered the following relevant facts for this determination: ● At the time of the Merger closing, Old SAFE shareholders, excluding the Old SAFE shares held directly by iStar, members of iStar management and Star Holdings, control majority of the voting interests in the Company and the combined company operates under the name “Safehold Inc.;” ● the composition of the combined company’s board of directors, which includes three directors from Old SAFE and two directors from iStar, and two management members of both Old SAFE and iStar; ● Old SAFE was the larger entity by size when comparing the key metrics of total assets, total revenue and net income (loss) from continuing operations and allocable to common shareholders; and ● substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Company consist of the historical assets and liabilities of Old SAFE, and the go-forward business plan of the Company is to conduct the Ground Lease business being conducted by Old SAFE prior to the Merger. As a result, the historical financial statements of Old SAFE become the historical financial statements of the Company. Immediately before the closing of the Merger, iStar separated its remaining legacy non-ground lease assets and businesses, approximately $50.0 million of cash, exclusive of working capital reserves and restricted cash, and approximately 13.5 million shares of Old SAFE common stock into Star Holdings by distributing to iStar’s stockholders, on a pro rata basis, the issued and outstanding equity interests of Star Holdings (the “ Spin-Off Other Merger related transactions On August 10, 2022, iStar entered into an agreement (the “MSD Stock Purchase Agreement”) with MSD Partners, L.P. (“MSD Partners”) pursuant to which MSD Partners agreed to purchase 5,405,406 shares of Old SAFE’s common stock then owned by iStar (the “MSD Stock Purchase”) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $200 million, or $37.00 per share, payable in cash. The MSD Stock Purchase closed on March 31, 2023, shortly before the closing of the Merger. MSD Partners has the right to designate an observer to the board of directors of the Company, a top-up right on future equity issuances (subject to certain exceptions) and registration rights. MSD Partners will be subject to a customary standstill and certain restrictions on sales of its shares of the Company’s common stock. On August 10, 2022, MSD Partners also agreed to purchase 100,000 Caret units (refer to Note 11) from the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $20.0 million (the “MSD Caret Purchase”). MSD Partners received a credit against their purchase price for Caret units equal to the amount they would have received had they held Caret units at the time of a December 2022 distribution to other Caret unit holders, which was equal to $0.6 million. The closing of the MSD Caret Purchase took place in conjunction with the closing of the Merger on March 31, 2023. Star Holdings was capitalized in part with an 8.0%, four-year term loan from the Company having an initial principal amount of $115.0 million, as well as SOFR plus 3.00% bank debt of $140.0 million from Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. which is secured by approximately 13.5 million shares of the Company (refer to Note 4). In connection with the Spin-Off, Safehold Management Services Inc. (“SpinCo Manager”), a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a management agreement with Star Holdings effective as of March 31, 2023, pursuant to which SpinCo Manager will continue to operate and pursue the orderly monetization of Star Holding’s assets. Star Holdings will pay SpinCo Manager an annual management fee of $25.0 million in year one, $15.0 million in year two, $10.0 million in year three and $5.0 million in year four and 2.0% of the gross book value of Star Holdings’ assets, excluding shares of the Company’s common stock, for each annual term thereafter. The Company and Star Holdings also entered into a governance agreement that places certain restrictions on the transfer and voting of the shares of the Company owned by Star Holdings, and a registration rights agreement under which the Company agreed to register such shares for resale in accordance with applicable securities laws. Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation Basis of Presentation The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Such operating results may not be indicative of the expected results for any other interim periods or the entire year. Principles of Consolidation Consolidated VIEs financial support to VIEs that it was not previously contractually required to provide and did not have any unfunded commitments related to consolidated VIEs as of March 31, 2023. |

In addition, holders of Caret units in Old SAFE’s subsidiary, Caret Ventures LLC (“Caret Ventures”), contributed their interests in Caret Ventures to Portfolio Holdings in return for Caret units issued by Portfolio Holdings. Following the restructuring, 100% of the equity interests in Caret Ventures is held by Portfolio Holdings. The Company, management of the Company, employees and former employees of the Company, affiliates of MSD Partners (as defined below) and other outside investors own the issued and outstanding equity of Portfolio Holdings. Merger Transaction The Company considered the following relevant facts for this determination: ● At the time of the Merger closing, Old SAFE shareholders, excluding the Old SAFE shares held directly by iStar, members of iStar management and Star Holdings, control majority of the voting interests in the Company and the combined company operates under the name “Safehold Inc.;” ● the composition of the combined company’s board of directors, which includes three directors from Old SAFE and two directors from iStar, and two management members of both Old SAFE and iStar; ● Old SAFE was the larger entity by size when comparing the key metrics of total assets, total revenue and net income (loss) from continuing operations and allocable to common shareholders; and ● substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Company consist of the historical assets and liabilities of Old SAFE, and the go-forward business plan of the Company is to conduct the Ground Lease business being conducted by Old SAFE prior to the Merger. As a result, the historical financial statements of Old SAFE become the historical financial statements of the Company. Immediately before the closing of the Merger, iStar separated its remaining legacy non-ground lease assets and businesses, approximately $50.0 million of cash, exclusive of working capital reserves and restricted cash, and approximately 13.5 million shares of Old SAFE common stock into Star Holdings by distributing to iStar’s stockholders, on a pro rata basis, the issued and outstanding equity interests of Star Holdings (the “ Spin-Off Other Merger related transactions On August 10, 2022, iStar entered into an agreement (the “MSD Stock Purchase Agreement”) with MSD Partners, L.P. (“MSD Partners”) pursuant to which MSD Partners agreed to purchase 5,405,406 shares of Old SAFE’s common stock then owned by iStar (the “MSD Stock Purchase”) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $200 million, or $37.00 per share, payable in cash. The MSD Stock Purchase closed on March 31, 2023, shortly before the closing of the Merger. MSD Partners has the right to designate an observer to the board of directors of the Company, a top-up right on future equity issuances (subject to certain exceptions) and registration rights. MSD Partners will be subject to a customary standstill and certain restrictions on sales of its shares of the Company’s common stock. On August 10, 2022, MSD Partners also agreed to purchase 100,000 Caret units (refer to Note 11) from the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $20.0 million (the “MSD Caret Purchase”). MSD Partners received a credit against their purchase price for Caret units equal to the amount they would have received had they held Caret units at the time of a December 2022 distribution to other Caret unit holders, which was equal to $0.6 million. The closing of the MSD Caret Purchase took place in conjunction with the closing of the Merger on March 31, 2023. Star Holdings was capitalized in part with an 8.0%, four-year term loan from the Company having an initial principal amount of $115.0 million, as well as SOFR plus 3.00% bank debt of $140.0 million from Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. which is secured by approximately 13.5 million shares of the Company (refer to Note 4). In connection with the Spin-Off, Safehold Management Services Inc. (“SpinCo Manager”), a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a management agreement with Star Holdings effective as of March 31, 2023, pursuant to which SpinCo Manager will continue to operate and pursue the orderly monetization of Star Holding’s assets. Star Holdings will pay SpinCo Manager an annual management fee of $25.0 million in year one, $15.0 million in year two, $10.0 million in year three and $5.0 million in year four and 2.0% of the gross book value of Star Holdings’ assets, excluding shares of the Company’s common stock, for each annual term thereafter. The Company and Star Holdings also entered into a governance agreement that places certain restrictions on the transfer and voting of the shares of the Company owned by Star Holdings, and a registration rights agreement under which the Company agreed to register such shares for resale in accordance with applicable securities laws.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 3—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Significant Accounting Policies Allowance for credit losses on net investment in sales-type leases and Ground Lease receivables quantitative analysis to estimate expected loss rates for its portfolio of net investment in sales-type leases and Ground Lease receivables. The Company analyzes historical unemployment rates and historical data provided by Trepp (“Trepp”) for single asset borrower loans including loan to value ratios, loss rates, timing of losses, vintage, property type and other statistics. The Company utilizes historical loss rates, timing of losses and unemployment rates and updates its analysis for c more inherent risk of deals under construction. Interest receivable is not included in the Company’s allowance for credit losses on net investment in sales-type leases and Ground Lease receivables as the Company performs timely write-offs, if any, of aged interest receivables. The Company has also made a policy election to write off aged interest receivables through interest income from sales-type leases as opposed to through the provision for credit losses. Real estate available and held for sale— The Company classifies its real estate assets as held for sale in the period in which all of the following conditions are met: (i) the Company commits to a plan and has the authority to sell the asset; (ii) the asset is available for sale in its current condition; (iii) the Company has initiated an active marketing plan to locate a buyer for the asset; (iv) the sale of the asset is both probable and expected to qualify for full sales recognition within a period of 12 months; (v) the asset is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reflective of its current fair value; and (vi) the Company does not anticipate changes to its plan to sell the asset. If circumstances arise that were previously considered unlikely and, as a result the Company decides not to sell a property previously classified as held for sale, the property is reclassified as held and used and included in "Real estate, net" on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company measures and records a property that is reclassified as held and used at the lower of: (i) its carrying amount before the property was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used; or (ii) the estimated fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell. Fair Values The following table presents the carrying value and fair value for the Company’s financial instruments ($ in millions): As of March 31, 2023 As of December 31, 2022 Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Value Value Value Value Assets Net investment in sales-type leases (1) $ 3,140 $ 3,402 $ 3,107 $ 3,236 Ground Lease receivables (1) 1,431 1,631 1,375 1,501 Loans receivable, net - related party (1) 112 112 — — Cash and cash equivalents (2) 20 20 20 20 Restricted cash (2) 28 28 28 28 Liabilities Debt obligations, net (1) Level 1 739 584 738 573 Level 3 3,163 2,764 2,783 2,358 Total debt obligations, net 3,902 3,348 3,521 2,931 (1) The fair value of the Company’s net investment in sales-type leases, Ground Lease receivables and loans receivable, net – related party are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy . The fair value of the Company’s debt obligations traded in secondary markets are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy and the fair value of the Company’s debt obligations not traded in secondary markets are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. (2) The Company determined the carrying values of its cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximated their fair values and are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy . Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests period at a valuation not less than the purchase price for the Caret units purchased in February 2022, reduced by an amount equal to the amount of subsequent cash distributions made to the investors on account of such Caret units, then the investors in the February 2022 transaction have the right to cause their Caret units purchased in February 2022 to be redeemed by Portfolio Holdings at their original purchase price as so reduced. The Company classifies these redeemable Caret units in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480: Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. ASC 480-10-S99-3A requires that equity securities redeemable at the option of the holder be classified outside of permanent stockholders’ equity. The Company classifies redeemable Caret units as “Redeemable noncontrolling interests” in its consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of changes in equity. The redeemable noncontrolling interest’s carrying amount is equal to the higher of (i) the initial carrying amount, increased or decreased for the redeemable noncontrolling interest’s share of net income or loss and dividends; or (ii) the redemption value. In the case of the Company’s redeemable Caret units, the carrying amount equals both the initial carrying amount and the redemption value. Stock-based compensation Loans receivable, net – related party The Company performs a quarterly analysis of its loan receivable that incorporates management’s current judgments about credit quality based on all known and relevant internal and external factors that may affect collectability. The Company considers, among other things, payment status, lien position, borrower financial resources and investment collateral, collateral type, project economics and geographical location as well as national and regional economic factors. The Company estimates its Expected Loss on its loans receivable based on relevant information including current market conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of its investments. The estimate of the Company’s Expected Loss requires significant judgment. The Company calculated its Expected Loss through the use of third-party market data that provided current and future economic conditions that may impact the performance of the commercial real estate assets securing its investments. The Company will consider a loan to be non-performing and place it on non-accrual status at such time as: (1) interest payments become 90 days delinquent; (2) it has a maturity default; or (3) management determines it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. Non-accrual loans will be returned to accrual status when they have become contractually current and management believes all amounts contractually owed will be received. The Company made the accounting policy election to record accrued interest on its loan asset separate from its loans receivable and to exclude accrued interest from its amortized cost basis disclosures. Any accrued interest receivable is recorded in “Deferred expenses and other assets, net” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2023, the Company did not have any accrued interest on its consolidated balance sheets. The Company will place loans on non-accrual status once interest on the loan becomes 90 days delinquent and will reverse any accrued interest as a reduction to interest income or recognizes a credit loss expense at such time. As such, the Company elected the practical expedient to not record an allowance against accrued interest receivable. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company did not reverse any accrued interest on its loan asset. Equity Investments Interest Income on Loans Receivable, net – related party Acquisitions The Company’s acquisition of iStar was accounted for as a business combination. For business combinations, the Company recognizes and measures identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at their fair values on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. I Fair values are based on available information including discounted cash flow analysis or similar fair value models. Fair value estimates are also made using significant assumptions such as capitalization rates, discount rates, fair market lease rates and other market data. The fair value of the Company’s interests in equity investments acquired is calculated using the fair value of the investments held by the venture, which are valued using methods as described above, and considers the Company’s economics in the venture. Intangible assets may include the value of right of use lease assets, above-market leases and in-place leases. Right of use lease assets and lease liabilities are Company's incremental borrowing rate, as of the date of the acquisition. Right of use assets are included in “Deferred expenses and other assets, net” and lease liabilities are recorded in “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Above-market lease intangibles and in-place lease intangibles are each recorded at their fair values and included in “Deferred expenses and other assets, net” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Intangible liabilities may also include below-market leases, which are recorded at their fair values and included in “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The table below shows the Company’s purchase consideration for the acquisition of iStar ($ in thousands): Total Company shares as purchase price (1) 1,195,034 Stock price of the Company’s common stock (2) $ 29.78 Fair value of the Company's stock transferred 35,588 Cash consideration paid by the Company to iStar 88,685 Purchase consideration $ 124,273 (1) The total post-Merger shares of the Company to be held by iStar shareholders includes 12.7 million shares that were issued as consideration for the investment in Old SAFE previously held by iStar as of December 31, 2022 that were retired in connection with the Merger. Accordingly, these shares are excluded from the purchase consideration as they are reflected as a treasury stock repurchase and retirement by Old SAFE. (2) Based on the closing price of Old SAFE’s common stock as of March 30, 2023, representing the final closing price prior to the effective time of the Merger. The Merger was accounted for as a business combination pursuant to ASC 805 and all Merger related costs were expensed as incurred. The Company recorded $18.7 million of merger expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2023, of which $13.9 million was recorded in “Other expense” and $4.8 million was recorded in “General and administrative” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company also recorded $0.6 of related non-recurring charges in “Other expense,” and a provision for credit losses of $2.3 million on the Secured Term Loan Facility (refer to Note 4) which was originated at the time of the Merger in conjunction with the Spin-Off. Excluding $2.7 million of related non-recurring charges and the $2.3 million provision for credit losses on the Secured Term Loan Facility, through March 31, 2023, the Company has incurred $26.4 million of merger expenses. The following table sets forth the provisional allocation of the purchase consideration to the fair values of identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, recognized as a result of the acquisition described in Note 1 above ($ in thousands): Cash and cash equivalents $ 3,213 Real estate 1,508 Equity investments (1) 61,247 Deferred expenses and other assets (2) 25,442 Total assets acquired 91,410 Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities (3) (22,939) Debt obligations (4) (99,995) Total liabilities assumed (122,934) Net identifiable liabilities assumed (31,524) Purchase consideration $ 124,273 Add: net identifiable liabilities assumed 31,524 Goodwill (5) 155,797 (1) Equity investments were valued using discount rates between 7.2% and 13.9% and are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. (2) Deferred expenses and other assets includes $11.0 million attributable to operating lease right of use assets , $4.7 million attributable to prepaid expenses resulting from the settlement of iStar’s compensation plans, $2.1 million attributable to in-place prepaid contracts, $1.3 million attributable to office furniture and equipment and $6.3 million attributable to other receivables. (3) Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities primarily includes a $14.2 million operating lease liability . In addition, under the Merger Agreement, iStar was required to fund its share of merger-related costs and to provide sufficient cash to fund any unresolved corporate obligations and accrued liabilities or costs yet-to-be incurred prior to the Merger. Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities includes approximately $8.7 million of obligations assumed from iStar, which are offset with corresponding amounts in cash and cash equivalents and amounts receivable in deferred expenses and other assets, net sufficient to settle such obligations. (4) Debt obligations were valued using a discount rate of 6.7% and are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. (5) Goodwill is calculated as the excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired and primarily relates to the acquisition of iStar’s workforce and future synergies expected to be realized after the completion of the merger. The following table summarizes the Company's pro forma revenues and net income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 as if the Merger described in Note 1 was completed on January 1, 2022 ($ in thousands): For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 2022 Pro forma revenues $ 97,256 $ 69,593 Pro forma net income (loss) 34,288 (73,578) (1) The pro forma revenues and net income (loss) are presented for informational purposes only and may not be indicative of what the actual results of operations of the Company would have been assuming the transaction occurred on January 1, 2022, nor do they purport to represent the Company’s results of operations for future periods. For the three months March 31, 2022, pro forma net loss includes $46.7 million of merger expenses (including $20.3 million of merger expenses borne by iStar) and a $42.1 million loss on extinguishment of debt, both of which are non-recurring in nature. Due to the Merger closing on March 31, 2023, the revenue and net income of the acquiree for the three months ended March 31, 2023 had an immaterial impact on the Company’s total revenues and net income for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Goodwill Goodwill is calculated as the excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired and primarily relates to the acquisition of iStar’s workforce and future synergies expected to be realized from the Merger. New accounting pronouncements The Company adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"), as amended, on January 1, 2023 using the modified retrospective approach method. Under the modified retrospective approach, the Company recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings by recording an initial allowance for credit losses on net investment in sales-type leases and Ground Lease receivables. Periods presented that are prior to the adoption date of January 1, 2023 will not be adjusted. ASU 2016-13 replaced the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects a current expected credit loss ("Expected Loss"). ASU 2016-13 impacted all of the Company’s investments held at amortized cost, which included its net investment in sales-type leases and Ground Lease receivables. The Company also adopted ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses: Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures (“ASU 2022-02”). ASU 2022-02 eliminated troubled debt restructuring recognition and measurement guidance and requires disclosure of gross write-offs by vintage for public business entities. The adoption of ASU 2022-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. |

Net Investment in Sales-type Leases, Ground Lease Receivables and Loans Receivable, net - Related Party | Note 4—Net Investment in Sales-type Leases, Ground Lease Receivables and Loans Receivable, net – Related Party The Company classifies certain of its Ground Leases as sales-type leases and records the leases within “Net investment in sales-type leases” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and records interest income in “Interest income from sales-type leases” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. In addition, the Company may enter into transactions whereby it acquires land and enters into Ground Leases directly with the seller. These Ground Leases qualify as sales-type leases and, as such, do not qualify for sale leaseback accounting and are accounted for as financing receivables in accordance with ASC 310 - Receivables and are included in “Ground Lease receivables” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company records interest income from Ground Lease receivables in “Interest income from sales-type leases” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. In July 2022, the Company, pursuant to an agreement with iStar and upon certain construction related conditions being met, acquired an existing Ground Lease from iStar for $36.4 million inclusive of closing costs and was recorded in “Net investment in sales-type leases” and “Real estate-related intangible assets, net” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. In September 2022, the Company sold a Ground Lease to a third-party for $136.0 million and recognized a gain of $55.8 million in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. $9.5 million of the gain was attributable to noncontrolling interests, of which $0.7 million was attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests.

Borrowings under the Star Holdings Term Loan Facility bear interest at a fixed rate of 8.00% per annum, which may increase to 10.00% per annum if either (i) any loans remain outstanding under the Incremental Term Loan Facility or (ii) Star Holdings elects for interest due for any two fiscal quarters to be paid in kind. The interest rate will increase to 12.00% per annum if both (i) and (ii) in the previous sentence occur. The Star Holdings Term Loan Facility has a maturity date of March 31, 2027. The Star Holdings Term Loan Facility is secured by a first-priority perfected security pledge of all the equity interests in Star Holding’s primary real estate subsidiary. Starting the quarter that is six months after closing, within five business days after Star Holdings has delivered its unaudited quarterly financial statements, Star Holdings will apply any unrestricted cash on its balance sheet in excess of the aggregate of (i) an operating reserve; and (ii) $50 million, to prepay its Star Holdings Term Loan Facility or alternatively, with the consent of Company, Star Holdings may apply such cash to prepay its margin loan facility in lieu of any prepayment of the Star Holdings Term Loan Facility.

In November 2021, Portfolio Holdings, then known as Safehold Operating Partnership LP, (as issuer) and the Company (as guarantor), issued $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.85% senior notes due January 2032 (the “2.85% Notes”). The 2.85% Notes were issued at 99.123% of par. The Company may redeem the 2.85% Notes in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to October 15, 2031, at the Company’s option and sole discretion, at a redemption price equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the principal amount of the 2.85% Notes being redeemed; and (ii) a make-whole premium calculated in accordance with the indenture, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the applicable redemption date.

The difference between the 5.15% stated rate and the cash interest rate will accrue in each semi-annual payment period and be paid in kind by adding such accrued interest to the outstanding principal balance, to be repaid at maturity in May 2052. The Company may, at its option, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the 5.15% Notes, in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the 5.15% Notes then outstanding in the case of a partial prepayment, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, and the applicable make-whole amount calculated in accordance with the indenture; provided, that, so long as no default or event of default shall then exist, at any time on or after February 13, 2052, the Company may, at its option, prepay all or any part of the 5.15% Notes at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, together with, in each case, accrued interest to the prepayment date, without any make-whole amount. 2021 Unsecured Revolver In December 2021, the Company obtained additional lender commitments increasing the maximum availability 12-month he Company amended the 2021 Unsecured Revolver primarily to transition from LIBOR to Adjusted SOFR, as defined in the applicable agreement. 2023 Unsecured Revolver In January 2023, Portfolio Holdings, then known as Safehold Operating Partnership LP (as borrower) and the Company (as guarantor) closed on a new $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the “2023 Unsecured Revolver”).

For operating leases, lease liabilities were discounted at the Company’s weighted average incremental secured borrowing rate for similar collateral estimated to be 5.8% and the weighted average remaining lease term is 3.4 years. The Company assumed its operating leases from iStar in connection with the Merger and therefore did not directly make any payments under its operating leases for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. (2) Other adjustments relates to a property that is majority-owned by a third party and is ground leased to the Company. The Company is obligated to pay the owner of the property $0.4 million, subject to adjustment for changes in the CPI, per year through 2044; however, the Company’s Ground Lease tenant at the property pays this expense directly under the terms of a master lease. Unfunded Commitments The Company also has unfunded forward commitments related to agreements that it entered into for the acquisition of new Ground Leases or additions to existing Ground Leases if certain conditions are met (refer to Note 13). These commitments may also include leasehold improvement allowances that will be funded to the Ground Lease tenants when certain conditions are met. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had an aggregate $319.6 million of such commitments. There can be no assurance that the conditions to closing for these transactions will be satisfied and that the Company will acquire the Ground Leases or fund the leasehold improvement allowances Other Commitments Through the Leasehold Loan Fund, the Company will generally fund construction and development loans and build-outs of space in real estate assets over a period of time if and when the borrowers and tenants meet established milestones and other performance criteria. We refer to these arrangements as performance-based commitments. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $139.8 million of such commitments. Legal Proceedings Following the announcement of the Merger, two purported stockholders of the Company filed complaints against the Company and each member of the Board of Directors alleging, as the case may be, that the Registration Statement filed on December 16, 2022 and the Schedule 14A Definitive Proxy statement filed on January 31, 2023 omitted material information with respect to the Merger and that, as a result, all defendants violated the federal securities laws. In addition, two purported stockholders of the Company sent demand letters and one purported stockholder sent a draft complaint alleging similar deficiencies in the Registration Statement and Proxy Statement as those alleged in the lawsuits. |

Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract] | |
Risk Management and Derivatives | Note 10—Risk Management and Derivatives In the normal course of its ongoing business operations, the Company encounters credit risk. Credit risk is the risk of default on the Company’s leases that result from a tenant’s inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Risk concentrations Although the Company’s Ground Leases are geographically diverse and the tenants operate in a variety of industries and property types, to the extent the Company has a significant concentration of interest income from sales-type leases or operating lease income from any tenant, the inability of that tenant to make its payment could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company did not have a significant concentration of operating lease income from any tenant for the periods presented. Derivative instruments and hedging activity The Company recognizes derivatives, if any, as either assets or liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Interest rate hedge assets are recorded in “Deferred expenses and other assets, net” and interest rate hedge liabilities are recorded in “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability, a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability. For the Company’s derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s debt. For the Company’s derivatives not designated as hedges, the changes in the fair value of the derivatives are reported in “Interest expense” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks but do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements. The table below presents the Company’s derivatives as well as their classification on the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 ($ in thousands): (1) March 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 Fair Fair Balance Sheet Derivative Type Value (2) Value (2) Location Assets Interest rate swaps $ 15,306 $ 29,346 Deferred expenses and other assets, net $ 15,306 $ 29,346 Liabilities Interest rate swaps $ 14,384 $ — Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities Total $ 14,384 $ — (1) Over the next 12 months, the Company expects that $3.8 million related to cash flow hedges will be reclassified from “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)” as an increase to interest expense. (2) The fair value of the Company’s derivatives is estimated using valuation techniques utilized by a third-party specialist using observable inputs such as interest rates and contractual cash flow and are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features The table below presents the effect of the Company’s derivative financial instruments in the consolidated statements of operations and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 ($ in thousands): Amount of Gain Amount of Gain (Loss) Reclassified (Loss) Recognized from Accumulated in Accumulated Other Location of Gain (Loss) Other Comprehensive When Recognized in Comprehensive Income into Derivatives Designated in Hedging Relationships Income Income Earnings For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 Interest rate swaps Interest expense $ (28,424) $ (943) For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Interest rate swaps Interest expense $ 4,256 $ (1,033) |

Equity | Note 11—Equity Common Stock Equity Plans Incentive Plan provided for grants of stock options, shares of restricted common stock, phantom shares, dividend equivalent rights and other equity-based awards, including long-term incentive plan units. Grants under the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan were recognized as compensation costs ratably over the applicable vesting period and recorded in “General and administrative” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Prior to the effective time of the Merger, Old SAFE awarded all shares of Old SAFE common stock remaining available for issuance under the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan to members of its Former Manager’s management team and employees who performed services for Old SAFE. As of March 31, 2023, there were no shares available for issuance for future awards under Old SAFE’s 2017 Equity Incentive Plan. iStar’s amended and restated 2009 Long-Term Incentive Program (the “LTIP”) was approved by stockholders in 2021 and remained in effect after the closing of the Merger. The LTIP is designed to provide incentive compensation for officers, key employees, directors and advisors of the Company. The LTIP provides for awards of stock options, shares of restricted stock, phantom shares, restricted stock units, dividend equivalent rights and other share-based performance awards. All awards under the LTIP are made at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. As of March 31, 2023, an aggregate of 267,094 shares of the Company’s common stock remain available for awards under the LTIP. During the third quarter of 2018, Old SAFE adopted, and in the second quarter of 2019, its stockholders approved, the Caret Performance Incentive Plan (the “Original Caret Performance Incentive Plan”). Under the Original Caret Performance Incentive Plan, 1,500,000 Caret units were reserved for grants of performance-based awards to Original Caret Performance Incentive Plan participants, including certain of executives of iStar, and Old SAFE’s directors and service providers. Grants under the Original Caret Performance Incentive Plan were subject to vesting based on time-based service conditions and hurdles relating to Old SAFE’s common stock price, all of which were satisfied as of December 31, 2022, except with respect to approximately 1,000 Caret units that are scheduled to vest on December 31, 2023. In connection with the Merger, certain of Old SAFE’s former executive officers, have entered into re-vesting agreements pursuant to which the executives have agreed to subject 25% of their previously vested Caret units to additional vesting conditions which will be satisfied on the second anniversary of the Merger, subject to the applicable executive’s continued employment through such date. In the event of a termination of the executive’s employment by the Company without “cause”, or due to the executive’s death, disability or retirement, the unvested Caret units shall continue to vest as and when the vesting conditions described above are satisfied. In connection with the consummation of the Merger and the Caret Restructuring, Old SAFE, Caret Ventures and CARET Management Holdings LLC assigned each Award Agreement (as defined in the Original Caret Performance Incentive Plan) relating to outstanding Caret unit awards to Portfolio Holdings pursuant to the Omnibus Assignment, Assumption and Amendment Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2023 (the “Caret Assignment Agreement”). Following the effectiveness of the Caret Assignment Agreement, Old SAFE amended and restated the Original Caret Performance Incentive Plan (the “Amended Caret Performance Incentive Plan”). Prior to the Merger, the Old SAFE compensation committee, and following the Merger, the Company’s compensation committee, approved the award of 76,801 new Caret units to executive officers and other employees, other than the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s President and Chief Investment Officer, including 15,000 Caret units to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. The new Caret unit awards were granted immediately following the Merger and the effectiveness of the Amended Caret Performance Incentive Plan, and cliff vest on the fourth anniversary of their grant date if the Company’s common stock has traded at an average per share price of $60.00 or more for at least 30 consecutive trading days during that four-year period. Subsequent to the closing of the Merger, and after giving effect to the Caret Restructuring and the post-Merger Caret unit awards, Amended Caret Performance Incentive Plan participants held 1,499,757 Caret units, representing 15.41% of the then-outstanding Caret units and 12.50% of the then-authorized Caret units. The Company did not incur expense from Caret units during the three months ended March 31, 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recognized $0.3 million in expense from Caret units, which is recorded in “General and administrative” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and “Noncontrolling interests” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
Related Party Transactions | Note 13—Related Party Transactions Prior to the Merger, the Company was externally managed by an affiliate of iStar. iStar was an active real estate investor for over 20 years and had an extensive network for sourcing investments, which included relationships with brokers, corporate tenants and developers that it has established over its long operating history. Management Agreement A summary of the terms of the management agreement with iStar prior to the Merger is below: Manager SFTY Manager, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of iStar Inc. Management Fee Annual fee of 1.00% of total equity (up to $1.5 billion) Annual fee of 1.25% of total equity (for incremental equity of $1.5 billion to $3.0 billion) Annual fee of 1.375% of total equity (for incremental equity of $3.0 billion to $5.0 billion) and Annual fee of 1.5% of total equity (for incremental equity over $5.0 billion) Management Fee Consideration At the discretion of the Company’s independent directors, payment will be made in cash or in shares of the Company’s common stock (valued at the greater of: (i) the volume weighted average market price during a specified pricing period; or (ii) the initial public offering price of $20.00 per share) Lock-up Restriction from selling common stock received for management fees for two years from the date of such issuance (restriction will terminate in the event of and effective with the termination of the management agreement) Incentive Fee None Term Non-terminable through June 30, 2023, except for cause. Automatic annual renewals thereafter, subject to non-renewal upon certain findings by the Company’s independent directors and payment of termination fee. Termination Fee 3x prior year’s management fee During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded $5.2 million and $4.5 million, respectively, in management fees to the Former Manager. These management fees are recorded in “General and administrative” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Expense Reimbursements The Company paid, or reimbursed iStar for, certain of the Company’s operating expenses as well as the costs of personnel performing certain legal, accounting, finance, due diligence tasks and other services, in each case except those specifically required to be borne or elected not to be charged by the iStar under the management agreement. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company was allocated $3.1 million and $3.1 million, respectively, in expenses from iStar. These expenses are recorded in “General and administrative” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Acquisitions and Commitments iStar has participated in certain of the Company’s investment transactions, as the Company’s tenant or either as a seller of land or by providing financing to the Company’s Ground Lease tenants. The following is a list of transactions in which the Company and iStar or other persons deemed to be related parties have participated for the periods presented. These transactions were approved by the Company’s independent directors in accordance with the Company’s policy with respect to related party transactions. In July 2022, the Company, pursuant to an agreement with iStar and upon certain construction related conditions being met, acquired an existing Ground Lease from iStar for $36.4 million inclusive of closing costs (refer to Note 4). In June 2022, the Company acquired land and simultaneously structured and entered into a Ground Lease as part of the Ground Lease tenant’s recapitalization of a mixed-use property. The Company also committed to provide an additional $35.0 million to the Ground Lease tenant if certain construction and leasing milestones are met. The Leasehold Loan Fund, in which an affiliate of an existing shareholder (which is affiliated with one of the Company’s independent directors) owns a noncontrolling equity interest, committed to provide a $105.0 million loan to the Company’s Ground Lease tenant for the recapitalization of the leasehold. The Company paid the Leasehold Loan Fund $5.0 million of additional consideration in connection with this investment. In April 2022, the Company acquired an existing Ground Lease from iStar for $9.0 million. In March 2022, the Company acquired land for a purchase price of $28.5 million and simultaneously structured and entered into a Ground Lease as part of the Ground Lease tenant’s recapitalization of a hotel property. One of the Company’s independent directors has an indirect ownership interest in the entity that is the Ground Lease tenant and controls the company that indirectly manages that entity. In March 2022, the Company paid iStar $0.3 million to terminate a purchase option that allowed iStar to purchase the land at the expiration of its Ground Lease with the Company. iStar sold the leasehold to a third party in March 2022. In March 2022, the Company acquired three land properties from iStar for a total purchase price of $122.0 million and simultaneously structured and entered into three Ground Lease’s directly with the Ground Lease tenant. In February 2022, the Company acquired land and simultaneously structured and entered into a Ground Lease as part of the Ground Lease tenant’s recapitalization of a life science development property. The Leasehold Loan Fund, in which an affiliate of an existing shareholder (which is affiliated with one of the Company’s independent directors) owns a noncontrolling equity interest, committed to provide a $130.0 million loan to the Company’s Ground Lease tenant for the recapitalization of the leasehold. The Company paid the Leasehold Loan Fund $9.0 million of additional consideration in connection with this investment. In November 2021, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which it agreed to acquire land and a related Ground Lease originated by iStar when certain construction related conditions are met by a specified time period. The purchase price to be paid is $33.3 million, plus an amount necessary for iStar to achieve the greater of a 1.25x multiple or a 12% return on its investment. In addition, the Ground Lease documents contain future funding obligations to the Ground Lease tenant of approximately $51.8 million of leasehold improvement allowance upon achievement of certain milestones. In December 2021, iStar contributed the Ground Lease to the Ground Lease Plus Fund. The Company has a noncontrolling interest in the Ground Lease Plus Fund and an affiliate of an existing shareholder (which is affiliated with one of the Company’s independent directors) has a noncontrolling interest in the Ground Lease Plus Fund. The terms of the Company’s commitment under the agreement did not change upon iStar’s contribution of the Ground Lease to the Ground Lease Plus Fund. There can be no assurance that the conditions to closing will be satisfied and that the Company will acquire the Ground Lease from the Ground Lease Plus Fund. In June 2021, the Company acquired from iStar a purchase option agreement for $1.2 million, which amount was equal to the deposit previously made by iStar under such option agreement plus assumption of iStar’s out of pocket costs and expenses in connection with entering into such option agreement. Under the option agreement, the Company has the right to acquire for $215.0 million a property that is under a separate option for the benefit of a third party, whereby such third party has the right to enter into a Ground Lease and develop approximately 1.1 million square feet of office space. In June 2021, the Company entered into two agreements pursuant to each of which it agreed to acquire land and a related Ground Lease originated by iStar when certain construction related conditions are met by a specified time period. The purchase price to be paid for each is $42.0 million, plus an amount necessary for iStar to achieve the greater of a 1.25x multiple and a 9% return on its investment. In addition, each Ground Lease provides for a leasehold improvement allowance up to a maximum of $83.0 million, which obligation would be assumed by the Company upon acquisition. In January 2022, iStar sold the Ground Leases to the Ground Lease Plus Fund in which the Company owns a noncontrolling interest and an existing shareholder (which is affiliated with one of the Company’s independent directors) owns a noncontrolling interest. There can be no assurance that the conditions to closing will be satisfied and that the Company will acquire the properties and Ground Leases from the Ground Lease Plus Fund. Caret units In February 2022, Old SAFE sold an aggregate of 108,571 Caret units, 1.08% of the authorized Caret units, to a group of investors (refer to Note 3). In addition, an affiliate of an existing shareholder (which is affiliated with one of the Company’s independent directors) made a commitment to purchase 28,571 Caret units, or 0.29% of the authorized Caret units, for a purchase price of $5.0 million. As part of the sale, Old SAFE agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide public market liquidity for such Caret units by seeking to provide a listing of the Caret units (or securities into which they may be exchanged) on a public exchange within two years of the sale. In the event public market liquidity of the Caret units is not achieved within such two year period at a valuation not less than the purchase price for the Caret units purchased in February 2022, reduced by an amount equal to the amount of subsequent cash distributions made to investors on account of such Caret units, then the investors in the February 2022 transaction have the right to cause their Caret units purchased in February 2022 to be redeemed by Portfolio Holdings at such purchase price as so reduced. On March 31, 2023, shortly before the closing of the Merger, iStar sold and affiliates of MSD Partners bought 5,405,406 shares of Old SAFE’s common stock then owned by iStar. On March 31, 2023, in conjunction with the closing of the Merger, affiliates of MSD Partners also purchased 100,000 Caret units (refer to Note 11) from the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $20.0 million. Additionally, on March 31, 2023, existing third-party Caret unit holders purchased an aggregate of 22,500 Caret units from the Company for an aggregate $4.5 million. Star Holdings On March 31, 2023, immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, the Company (then known as iStar Inc.) completed the Spin-Off, resulting in the spin-off of its remaining legacy assets and certain other assets pursuant to a separation and distribution agreement (the “Separation and Distribution Agreement”), dated as of March 31, 2023, by and between the Company and Star Holdings. The Separation and Distribution Agreement sets forth, among other things, Star Holdings’ agreements with the Company regarding the principal transactions necessary to separate Star Holdings from the Company. It also sets forth other agreements that govern certain aspects of Star Holdings’ relationship with the Company after the Spin-Off relating to the transfer of assets and assumption of liabilities, cash assets, release of claims, insurance, non-solicitation, segregation of accounts and other matters. The Separation and Distribution Agreement also includes a mutual release by Star Holdings, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, of the other party from certain specified liabilities, as well as mutual indemnification covenants pursuant to which Star Holdings and the Company have agreed to indemnify each other from certain specified liabilities. SpinCo Manager has entered into a management agreement with Star Holdings, pursuant to which it will operate and pursue the orderly monetization of Star Holding’s assets. Pursuant to the management agreement, Star Holdings pays to SpinCo Manager an annual management fee of $25.0 million in year one, $15.0 million in year two, $10.0 million in year three and $5.0 million in year four and 2.0% of the gross book value of Star Holding's assets, excluding shares of the Company’s common stock, for each annual term thereafter. The management agreement has an initial one-year term and will be automatically renewed for successive one-year terms each anniversary date thereafter unless previously terminated. The management agreement may be terminated by Star Holdings without cause by not less than one hundred eighty days’ written notice to SpinCo Manager upon the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds In the event of a termination without cause by Star Holdings prior to the fourth anniversary of the Spin-Off, Star Holdings will pay SpinCo Manager a termination fee of $50.0 million minus the aggregate amount of management fees actually paid to SpinCo Manager prior to the termination date. However, if Star Holdings has completed the liquidation of its assets on or before the termination date, the termination fee will consist of any portion of the annual management fee that remained unpaid for the remainder of the then current annual term plus, if the termination date occurs on or before the third anniversary of the Spin-Off, the amount of the management fee that would have been payable for the next succeeding annual term, or if the termination date occurs after the third anniversary of the Spin-Off, zero. In the event of a termination by the Company based on a reduction in the amount of Star Holdings’ consolidated assets below designated thresholds, Star Holdings will pay SpinCo Manager a termination fee of $30.0 million if the termination occurs in the first year, $15.0 million if the termination occurs in the second year and $5.0 million if the termination occurs in the third year, in each case, plus the balance of any unpaid portion of the annual management fee for the applicable year. The Company and Star Holdings also entered into a governance agreement that places certain restrictions on the transfer and voting of the shares of the Company owned by Star Holdings, and a registration rights agreement under which the Company agreed to register such shares for resale in accordance with applicable securities laws. As of March 31, 2023, Star Holdings owned approximately 21.2% of the Company’s common stock outstanding through a wholly-owned subsidiary. |

Use of Estimates | The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Such operating results may not be indicative of the expected results for any other interim periods or the entire year. |
Principles of Combination and Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation |
Allowance for credit losses on net investment in sales-type leases and Ground Lease receivables | Allowance for credit losses on net investment in sales-type leases and Ground Lease receivables quantitative analysis to estimate expected loss rates for its portfolio of net investment in sales-type leases and Ground Lease receivables. The Company analyzes historical unemployment rates and historical data provided by Trepp (“Trepp”) for single asset borrower loans including loan to value ratios, loss rates, timing of losses, vintage, property type and other statistics. The Company utilizes historical loss rates, timing of losses and unemployment rates and updates its analysis for c more inherent risk of deals under construction. Interest receivable is not included in the Company’s allowance for credit losses on net investment in sales-type leases and Ground Lease receivables as the Company performs timely write-offs, if any, of aged interest receivables. The Company has also made a policy election to write off aged interest receivables through interest income from sales-type leases as opposed to through the provision for credit losses. |
Real estate available and held for sale | Real estate available and held for sale— The Company classifies its real estate assets as held for sale in the period in which all of the following conditions are met: (i) the Company commits to a plan and has the authority to sell the asset; (ii) the asset is available for sale in its current condition; (iii) the Company has initiated an active marketing plan to locate a buyer for the asset; (iv) the sale of the asset is both probable and expected to qualify for full sales recognition within a period of 12 months; (v) the asset is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reflective of its current fair value; and (vi) the Company does not anticipate changes to its plan to sell the asset. If circumstances arise that were previously considered unlikely and, as a result the Company decides not to sell a property previously classified as held for sale, the property is reclassified as held and used and included in "Real estate, net" on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company measures and records a property that is reclassified as held and used at the lower of: (i) its carrying amount before the property was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used; or (ii) the estimated fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell. |
Fair values | Fair Values The following table presents the carrying value and fair value for the Company’s financial instruments ($ in millions): As of March 31, 2023 As of December 31, 2022 Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Value Value Value Value Assets Net investment in sales-type leases (1) $ 3,140 $ 3,402 $ 3,107 $ 3,236 Ground Lease receivables (1) 1,431 1,631 1,375 1,501 Loans receivable, net - related party (1) 112 112 — — Cash and cash equivalents (2) 20 20 20 20 Restricted cash (2) 28 28 28 28 Liabilities Debt obligations, net (1) Level 1 739 584 738 573 Level 3 3,163 2,764 2,783 2,358 Total debt obligations, net 3,902 3,348 3,521 2,931 (1) The fair value of the Company’s net investment in sales-type leases, Ground Lease receivables and loans receivable, net – related party are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy . The fair value of the Company’s debt obligations traded in secondary markets are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy and the fair value of the Company’s debt obligations not traded in secondary markets are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. (2) The Company determined the carrying values of its cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximated their fair values and are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy . |
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests | Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests period at a valuation not less than the purchase price for the Caret units purchased in February 2022, reduced by an amount equal to the amount of subsequent cash distributions made to the investors on account of such Caret units, then the investors in the February 2022 transaction have the right to cause their Caret units purchased in February 2022 to be redeemed by Portfolio Holdings at their original purchase price as so reduced. The Company classifies these redeemable Caret units in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480: Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. ASC 480-10-S99-3A requires that equity securities redeemable at the option of the holder be classified outside of permanent stockholders’ equity. The Company classifies redeemable Caret units as “Redeemable noncontrolling interests” in its consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of changes in equity. The redeemable noncontrolling interest’s carrying amount is equal to the higher of (i) the initial carrying amount, increased or decreased for the redeemable noncontrolling interest’s share of net income or loss and dividends; or (ii) the redemption value. In the case of the Company’s redeemable Caret units, the carrying amount equals both the initial carrying amount and the redemption value. |
Stock-based compensation | Stock-based compensation |
Loans receivable, net - related party | Loans receivable, net – related party The Company performs a quarterly analysis of its loan receivable that incorporates management’s current judgments about credit quality based on all known and relevant internal and external factors that may affect collectability. The Company considers, among other things, payment status, lien position, borrower financial resources and investment collateral, collateral type, project economics and geographical location as well as national and regional economic factors. The Company estimates its Expected Loss on its loans receivable based on relevant information including current market conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of its investments. The estimate of the Company’s Expected Loss requires significant judgment. The Company calculated its Expected Loss through the use of third-party market data that provided current and future economic conditions that may impact the performance of the commercial real estate assets securing its investments. The Company will consider a loan to be non-performing and place it on non-accrual status at such time as: (1) interest payments become 90 days delinquent; (2) it has a maturity default; or (3) management determines it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. Non-accrual loans will be returned to accrual status when they have become contractually current and management believes all amounts contractually owed will be received. The Company made the accounting policy election to record accrued interest on its loan asset separate from its loans receivable and to exclude accrued interest from its amortized cost basis disclosures. Any accrued interest receivable is recorded in “Deferred expenses and other assets, net” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2023, the Company did not have any accrued interest on its consolidated balance sheets. The Company will place loans on non-accrual status once interest on the loan becomes 90 days delinquent and will reverse any accrued interest as a reduction to interest income or recognizes a credit loss expense at such time. As such, the Company elected the practical expedient to not record an allowance against accrued interest receivable. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company did not reverse any accrued interest on its loan asset. |

Interest Income on Loans Receivable, net - related party | Interest Income on Loans Receivable, net – related party |
Acquisitions | Acquisitions The Company’s acquisition of iStar was accounted for as a business combination. For business combinations, the Company recognizes and measures identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at their fair values on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. I Fair values are based on available information including discounted cash flow analysis or similar fair value models. Fair value estimates are also made using significant assumptions such as capitalization rates, discount rates, fair market lease rates and other market data. The fair value of the Company’s interests in equity investments acquired is calculated using the fair value of the investments held by the venture, which are valued using methods as described above, and considers the Company’s economics in the venture. Intangible assets may include the value of right of use lease assets, above-market leases and in-place leases. Right of use lease assets and lease liabilities are Company's incremental borrowing rate, as of the date of the acquisition. Right of use assets are included in “Deferred expenses and other assets, net” and lease liabilities are recorded in “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Above-market lease intangibles and in-place lease intangibles are each recorded at their fair values and included in “Deferred expenses and other assets, net” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Intangible liabilities may also include below-market leases, which are recorded at their fair values and included in “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The table below shows the Company’s purchase consideration for the acquisition of iStar ($ in thousands): Total Company shares as purchase price (1) 1,195,034 Stock price of the Company’s common stock (2) $ 29.78 Fair value of the Company's stock transferred 35,588 Cash consideration paid by the Company to iStar 88,685 Purchase consideration $ 124,273 (1) The total post-Merger shares of the Company to be held by iStar shareholders includes 12.7 million shares that were issued as consideration for the investment in Old SAFE previously held by iStar as of December 31, 2022 that were retired in connection with the Merger. Accordingly, these shares are excluded from the purchase consideration as they are reflected as a treasury stock repurchase and retirement by Old SAFE. (2) Based on the closing price of Old SAFE’s common stock as of March 30, 2023, representing the final closing price prior to the effective time of the Merger. The Merger was accounted for as a business combination pursuant to ASC 805 and all Merger related costs were expensed as incurred. The Company recorded $18.7 million of merger expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2023, of which $13.9 million was recorded in “Other expense” and $4.8 million was recorded in “General and administrative” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company also recorded $0.6 of related non-recurring charges in “Other expense,” and a provision for credit losses of $2.3 million on the Secured Term Loan Facility (refer to Note 4) which was originated at the time of the Merger in conjunction with the Spin-Off. Excluding $2.7 million of related non-recurring charges and the $2.3 million provision for credit losses on the Secured Term Loan Facility, through March 31, 2023, the Company has incurred $26.4 million of merger expenses. The following table sets forth the provisional allocation of the purchase consideration to the fair values of identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, recognized as a result of the acquisition described in Note 1 above ($ in thousands): Cash and cash equivalents $ 3,213 Real estate 1,508 Equity investments (1) 61,247 Deferred expenses and other assets (2) 25,442 Total assets acquired 91,410 Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities (3) (22,939) Debt obligations (4) (99,995) Total liabilities assumed (122,934) Net identifiable liabilities assumed (31,524) Purchase consideration $ 124,273 Add: net identifiable liabilities assumed 31,524 Goodwill (5) 155,797 (1) Equity investments were valued using discount rates between 7.2% and 13.9% and are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. (2) Deferred expenses and other assets includes $11.0 million attributable to operating lease right of use assets , $4.7 million attributable to prepaid expenses resulting from the settlement of iStar’s compensation plans, $2.1 million attributable to in-place prepaid contracts, $1.3 million attributable to office furniture and equipment and $6.3 million attributable to other receivables. (3) Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities primarily includes a $14.2 million operating lease liability . In addition, under the Merger Agreement, iStar was required to fund its share of merger-related costs and to provide sufficient cash to fund any unresolved corporate obligations and accrued liabilities or costs yet-to-be incurred prior to the Merger. Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities includes approximately $8.7 million of obligations assumed from iStar, which are offset with corresponding amounts in cash and cash equivalents and amounts receivable in deferred expenses and other assets, net sufficient to settle such obligations. (4) Debt obligations were valued using a discount rate of 6.7% and are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. (5) Goodwill is calculated as the excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired and primarily relates to the acquisition of iStar’s workforce and future synergies expected to be realized after the completion of the merger. The following table summarizes the Company's pro forma revenues and net income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 as if the Merger described in Note 1 was completed on January 1, 2022 ($ in thousands): For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 2022 Pro forma revenues $ 97,256 $ 69,593 Pro forma net income (loss) 34,288 (73,578) (1) The pro forma revenues and net income (loss) are presented for informational purposes only and may not be indicative of what the actual results of operations of the Company would have been assuming the transaction occurred on January 1, 2022, nor do they purport to represent the Company’s results of operations for future periods.

New Accounting Pronouncements | New accounting pronouncements The Company adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"), as amended, on January 1, 2023 using the modified retrospective approach method. Under the modified retrospective approach, the Company recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings by recording an initial allowance for credit losses on net investment in sales-type leases and Ground Lease receivables. Periods presented that are prior to the adoption date of January 1, 2023 will not be adjusted. ASU 2016-13 replaced the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects a current expected credit loss ("Expected Loss"). ASU 2016-13 impacted all of the Company’s investments held at amortized cost, which included its net investment in sales-type leases and Ground Lease receivables. The Company also adopted ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses: Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures (“ASU 2022-02”). ASU 2022-02 eliminated troubled debt restructuring recognition and measurement guidance and requires disclosure of gross write-offs by vintage for public business entities. The adoption of ASU 2022-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. |

For operating leases, lease liabilities were discounted at the Company’s weighted average incremental secured borrowing rate for similar collateral estimated to be 5.8% and the weighted average remaining lease term is 3.4 years. The Company assumed its operating leases from iStar in connection with the Merger and therefore did not directly make any payments under its operating leases for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. (2) Other adjustments relates to a property that is majority-owned by a third party and is ground leased to the Company. The Company is obligated to pay the owner of the property $0.4 million, subject to adjustment for changes in the CPI, per year through 2044; however, the Company’s Ground Lease tenant at the property pays this expense directly under the terms of a master lease. |
