Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Structure	1. Structure Lightstone Value Plus REIT I, Inc., which was formerly known as Lightstone Value Plus Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. before September 16, 2021, a Maryland corporation (“Lightstone REIT I”), formed on June 8, 2004 Lightstone REIT I is structured as an umbrella partnership real estate investment trust, or UPREIT, and substantially all of the Company’s current and future business is and will be conducted through Lightstone Value Plus REIT, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership formed on July 12, 2004 98 Lightstone REIT I and the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company” and the use of “we,” “our,” “us” or similar pronouns refers to Lightstone REIT I, its Operating Partnership or the Company as required by the context in which such pronoun is used. Through its Operating Partnership, the Company owns, operates and develops commercial, residential, and hospitality properties and makes real estate-related investments, principally in the United States. The Company’s real estate investments are held alone or jointly with other parties. The Company also originates or acquires mortgage loans secured by real estate. Although most of its investments are of these types, the Company may invest in whatever types of real estate or real estate-related investments that it believes is in its best interests. Since its inception, the Company has owned and managed various commercial and residential properties located throughout the United States. The Company evaluates all of its real estate investments as one operating segment. As of September 30, 2022, the Company has ownership interests in (i) one consolidated operating property, (ii) two consolidated development properties, (iii) certain consolidated land holdings, and (iv) seven unconsolidated operating properties. With respect to its consolidated operating property, the Company has a majority ownership interest of 59.2 2.5 97.5 The Company’s advisor is Lightstone Value Plus REIT, LLC (the “Advisor”), which is majority owned by David Lichtenstein. On July 6, 2004, the Advisor contributed $ 2 200 20,000 200 10.00 30.0 100,000 The Company does not have any employees. The Advisor receives compensation and fees for services related to the investment and management of the Company’s assets. The Company’s Advisor has affiliates which may manage and develop certain of its properties. However, the Company also contracts with other unaffiliated third-party property managers. The Company’s Common Shares are not currently listed on a national securities exchange. The Company may seek to list its stock for trading on a national securities exchange only if a majority of independent directors believe listing would be in the best interest of its stockholders. The Company does not intend to list its shares at this time. The Company does not anticipate that there would be any market for its shares of common stock until they are listed for trading. Related Parties The Advisor and its affiliates, and Lightstone SLP, LLC are related parties of the Company. Certain of these entities are entitled to compensation for services related to the investment, management and disposition of the Company’s assets. The compensation is based on the cost of acquired properties/investments and the annual revenue earned from such properties/investments, and other such fees and expense reimbursements as outlined in each of the respective agreements. Noncontrolling Interests Partners of Operating Partnership On July 6, 2004, the Advisor contributed $2 to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 200 Common Units in the Operating Partnership. The Advisor has the right to convert the Common Units into cash or, at the option of the Company, an equal number of shares of Common Shares. In connection with the Offering, Lightstone SLP, LLC, an affiliate of the Advisor, purchased an aggregate of $ 30.0 99 In addition, an aggregate 497,209 Other Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Subsidiaries Other noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries include ownership interests in (i) Pro-DFJV Holdings LLC (“PRO”) held by the Company’s Sponsor, (ii) 50-01 2nd St. Associates LLC (the “2nd Street Joint Venture”), held by the Company’s Sponsor and other affiliates and (iii) various joint ventures held by affiliates of the Sponsor that have originated promissory notes to unaffiliated third parties (see Note 5).

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lightstone REIT I and its Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries (over which the Company exercises financial and operating control). All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, interests in entities acquired are evaluated based on applicable accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and if deemed to be variable interest entities (“VIE”) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary are also consolidated. If the interest in the entity is determined not to be a VIE, then the entity is evaluated for consolidation based on legal form, economic substance, and the extent to which the Company has control, substantive participating rights or both under the respective ownership agreement. For entities in which the Company has less than a controlling interest but have significant influence, the Company accounts for the investment using the equity method of accounting. There are judgments and estimates involved in determining if an entity in which the Company has made an investment is a VIE and, if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. The entity is evaluated to determine if it is a VIE by, among other things, calculating the percentage of equity being risked compared to the total equity of the entity. Determining expected future losses involves assumptions of various possibilities of the results of future operations of the entity, assigning a probability to each possibility and using a discount rate to determine the net present value of those future losses. A change in the judgments, assumptions, and estimates outlined above could result in consolidating an entity that should not be consolidated or accounting for an investment using the equity method that should in fact be consolidated, the effects of which could be material to our financial statements. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and related notes as contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) and accruals necessary in the judgment of management for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Lightstone Value Plus REIT I, Inc. and its Subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during a reporting period. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of real estate and real-estate related investments, marketable securities, notes receivable, depreciable lives, and revenue recognition. Application of these assumptions requires the exercise of judgment as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 included herein has been derived from the consolidated balance sheet included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The unaudited consolidated statements of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any other period. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments to reduce interest rate risk. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The Company recognizes all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets and measures those instruments at fair value. Changes in fair value of those instruments are reported in the consolidated statements of operations. Pre-Opening Costs The Company expenses the costs associated with pre-opening activities associated with its development and construction projects as incurred. COVID-19 Pandemic On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic and it remains highly unpredictable and dynamic and its ultimate duration and extent continue to be dependent on various developments, such as the emergence of variants to the virus that may cause additional strains of COVID-19, and the ongoing development, administration and ultimate effectiveness of vaccines, including booster shots. Accordingly, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic may continue to have negative effects on the U.S. and global economies for the foreseeable future. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the occupancy of the Company’s St. Augustine Outlet Center significantly declined and because of limited leasing success, the Company began exploring various strategic alternatives for the property, which ultimately led to the Company ceasing operations of the center effective July 15, 2022 and demolishing the existing building and improvements during the third quarter of 2022. See “St. Augustine Outlet Center” for additional information. Additionally, during 2020 the Company saw deterioration in both the occupancy and rental rates for Gantry Park Landing, which is located on Long Island, New York, as the luxury rental market in the greater New York City metropolitan area was negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, both occupancy and rental rates consistently improved throughout 2021 and returned to pre-COVID-19 levels. Thereafter, occupancy has continued to remain stable and the property has experienced strong growth in its rental rates thus far in 2022. To-date, the COVID-19 pandemic has not had any significant impact on the Company’s development projects. Furthermore, the Company’s other real estate-related investments (both its preferred investment in related party and its nonrecourse loan made to an unaffiliated third-party borrower) also relate to various development projects, which are at different stages in their respective development process. These investments, which are subject to similar risks, have also not yet been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent to which the Company’s business may be affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will largely depend on both current and future developments, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be reasonably predicted. If the Company’s operating properties, development projects and real estate-related investments are negatively impacted for an extended period because (i) occupancy levels and rental rates decline, (ii) tenants are unable to pay their rent, (iii) borrowers are unable to pay scheduled debt service on notes receivable, (iv) development activities are delayed and/or (v) various related party entities are unable to pay monthly preferred distributions on the Company’s preferred investments in related parties, the Company’s business and financial results could be materially and adversely impacted. Reclassifications Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. New Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which replaces the Company incurred loss impairment methodology currently in use with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company has reviewed and determined that other recently issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows, or do not apply to its current operations. Supplemental Cash Flow Information Supplemental cash flow information for the periods indicated is as follows: Schedule of summary of supplemental cash flow information For the 2022 2021 Cash paid for interest $ 9,691 $ 6,424 Distributions declared but not paid $ 3,831 $ 3,889 Investment property acquired but not paid $ 2,059 $ 4,483 Amortization of deferred financing costs included in development projects $ 2,094 $ 848 Holding loss/gain on marketable securities $ 241 $ 43 Value of shares issued from distribution reinvestment program $ 249 $ 242 Accrued loan exit fee included in deferred financing costs $ - $ 1,100 St. Augustine Outlet Center During the COVID-19 pandemic, the occupancy of the Company’s St. Augustine Outlet Center, a retail property located in St. Augustine Florida, which consisted of 0.3 11.3 Because of the aforementioned lease terminations and scheduled expirations, substantially all of the tenants vacated the property during the first quarter of 2022 and on June 29, 2022, the Company entered into a lease termination agreement with the property’s final tenant providing for them to receive an aggregate of $ 750 16.6 In connection with the terms of certain of the lease termination agreements, the Company agreed to make various payments to certain tenants provided they closed their store and vacated the property. The Company expenses lease termination fees in the period the lease termination agreement is executed and such expenses are included in property operating expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized aggregate lease termination fees of $ 825 425

Notes Receivable	5. Notes Receivable The Company has formed certain joint ventures (collectively, the “NR Joint Ventures”) between wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership (collectively, the “NR Subsidiaries”) and affiliates of the Sponsor (the “NR Affiliates”) which have originated nonrecourse loans (collectively, the “Joint Venture Promissory Notes”) to unaffiliated third-party borrowers (collectively, the “Joint Venture Borrowers”). The NR Subsidiaries and NR Affiliates may have varying ownership interests in the NR Joint Ventures, however; certain other wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership serve as the manager and are the sole decision-maker for each of the NR Joint Ventures. The Company has determined that the NR Joint Ventures are VIEs and the NR Subsidiaries are the primary beneficiaries. Since the NR Subsidiaries are the primary beneficiaries, beginning on the applicable date of formation, the Company has consolidated the operating results and financial condition of the NR Joint Ventures and accounted for the respective ownership interests of the NR Affiliates as noncontrolling interests. The Joint Venture Promissory Notes generally provide for monthly interest at a prescribed variable rate, subject to a floor. In connection with the initial funding of the Joint Venture Promissory Notes, the NR Joint Ventures receive origination fees (ranging from 1.00 1.50 The Joint Venture Promissory Notes generally have an initial term of one or two years and may provide for additional extension options subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including the funding of additional Loan Reserves and payment of extension fees. The Joint Venture Promissory Notes are collateralized by either the membership interests of the Joint Venture Borrowers in the borrowing entity or the underlying real property being developed by the Joint Venture Borrower. Origination fees are presented in the consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the Joint Venture Promissory Notes and are amortized into interest income, using a straight-line method that approximates the effective interest method, over the initial term of the Joint Venture Promissory Notes. The Loan Reserves are presented in the consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the Joint Venture Promissory Notes and are applied against the monthly interest due over the term. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, both the NR Subsidiaries and the NR Affiliates made aggregate contributions to the NR Joint Ventures of $ 21.9 0.2 29.3 8.6 The following tables summarize the Notes Receivable as of the dates indicated: Schedule of summary of notes receivable As of September 30, 2022 Joint Venture/Lender Company’s Percentage Loan Commitment Origination Fee Origination Maturity Contractual Interest Outstanding Principal Reserves Unamortized Origination Carrying Value Unfunded Commitment LSC 1543 7th LLC 50% 49,000 1.00% March 2, 2022 August 31, 2023 SOFR plus 7.00% $ 49,000 $ (1,821 ) $ (450 ) $ 46,729 $ - As of December 31, 2021 Joint Venture/Lender Company’s Percentage Loan Origination Fee Origination Maturity Contractual Outstanding Principal Reserves Unamortized Origination Carrying Value Unfunded Commitment LSC 1543 7th LLC (1) 50% 20,000 1.00% August 27, 2019 February 28, 2022 Libor plus 5.40% $ 17,500 $ - $ (33 ) $ 17,467 $ - LSC 11640 Mayfield LLC (2) 50% 18,000 1.50% March 4, 2020 March 1, 2022 Libor plus 11.00% 10,040 (629 ) (24 ) 9,387 6,960 Total $ 27,540 $ (629 ) $ (57 ) $ 26,854 $ 6,960 (1) Repaid in full during March 2022.

Because of the change in the closing price of Simon Stock and the market price of the Company’s other equity securities, the Company incurred unrealized losses of $ 1.2 20.0 3.5 10.6 Additionally, as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, certain of the Company’s marketable debt securities had net unrealized losses of $ 270 28 The Company may sell certain of its investments prior to their stated maturities for strategic purposes, in anticipation of credit deterioration, or for duration management. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company has entered into two interest rate cap contracts with unrelated financial institutions in order to reduce the effect of interest rate fluctuations or risk of certain real estate investment’s interest expense on its variable rate debt. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparty to these financial instruments. Management believes the risk of loss due to non-performance to be minimal. The Company is accounting for the interest rate cap contracts as economic hedges, marking these contracts to market, taking into account present interest rates compared to the contracted fixed rate over the life of the contract and recording the unrealized gain or loss on the interest rate cap contracts in the consolidated statements of operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of $1.6 million and $2.8 million, which is included in other income/(expense), net in the consolidated statement of operations, representing the change in the fair value of these economic hedges during such periods. The two interest rate cap contracts have notional amounts of $ 90.0 40.0 3.00% 2.50% June 3, 2024 3.1 Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value: ● Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. ● Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. ● Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Marketable securities and derivative financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of the dates indicated are as follows: Schedule of marketable securities measured at fair value on a recurring basis Fair Value Measurement Using As of September 30, 2022 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Marketable Securities Common and Preferred Equity Securities $ 870 $ 20,825 $ - $ 21,695 Marco OP and OP II Units - 18,779 - 18,779 Corporate Bonds - 1,020 - 1,020 Total $ 870 $ 40,624 $ - $ 41,494 Derivative Financial Instruments Interest Rate Cap Contracts $ - $ 3,110 $ - $ 3,110 Fair Value Measurement Using As of December 31, 2021 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Marketable Securities Common and Preferred Equity Securities $ 6,825 $ 20,513 $ - $ 27,338 Marco OP and OP II Units - 33,431 - 33,431 Corporate Bonds - 2,045 - 2,045 Total $ 6,825 $ 55,989 $ - $ 62,814 The fair values of the Company’s common equity securities are measured using readily quoted prices for these investments which are listed for trade on active markets. The fair values of the Company’s preferred equity securities and corporate bonds are measured using readily available quoted prices for these securities; however, the markets for these securities are not active. The fair values of the Company’s interest rate cap contracts are measured using other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Additionally, as noted above, the Company’s Marco OP and OP II units are both ultimately exchangeable for cash or similar number of shares of Simon Stock, therefore the Company uses the quoted market price of Simon Stock to measure the fair value of the Company’s Marco OP and OP II units. The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of our investments in marketable debt securities with stated contractual maturity dates, accounted for as available-for-sale securities and classified by the contractual maturity date of the securities: Schedule of contractual maturity As of September 30, 2022 Due in 1 year $ - Due in 1 year through 5 years - Due in 5 years through 10 years - Due after 10 years 1,020 Total $ 1,020 The Company did not have any other significant financial assets or liabilities, which would require revised valuations that are recognized at fair value.

Equity [Abstract]
Equity	8. Equity Share Repurchase Program The Company’s share repurchase program (the “SRP”) may provide its stockholders with limited, interim liquidity by enabling them to sell their shares of common stock back to the Company, subject to restrictions. On March 25, 2020, the Board of Directors amended the SRP to remove stockholder notice requirements and also approved the suspension of all redemptions effective immediately. Effective March 18, 2021 and May 14, 2021, the Board of Directors partially reopened the SRP to allow, subject to various conditions as set forth below, for redemptions submitted in connection with a stockholder’s death and hardship, respectively, and set the price for all such purchases to our current net asset value per share (“NAV per Share”), as determined by the Board of Directors and reported by the Company from time to time. Deaths that occurred subsequent to January 1, 2020 were eligible for consideration, subject to certain conditions. Beginning January 1, 2022, requests for redemptions in connection with a stockholder’s death must be submitted and received by the Company within one year of the stockholder’s date of death for consideration. At the above noted dates, the Board of Directors established that on an annual basis, the Company would not redeem in excess of 0.5% of the number of shares outstanding as of the end of the preceding year for either death or hardship redemptions, respectively. Additionally, redemption requests generally would be processed on a quarterly basis and would be subject to pro ration if either type of redemption requests exceeded the annual limitation. On March 18, 2022, the Board of Directors approved an increase to the annual threshold for death redemptions from up to 0.5% to 1.0%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 the Company repurchased 330,738 11.75 Net Earnings Per Share Basic net earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Dilutive income per share includes the potentially dilutive effect, if any, which would occur if our outstanding options to purchase our common stock were exercised. For all periods presented dilutive net income per share is equivalent to basic net income per share.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	Sep. 30, 2022
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lightstone REIT I and its Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries (over which the Company exercises financial and operating control). All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, interests in entities acquired are evaluated based on applicable accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and if deemed to be variable interest entities (“VIE”) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary are also consolidated. If the interest in the entity is determined not to be a VIE, then the entity is evaluated for consolidation based on legal form, economic substance, and the extent to which the Company has control, substantive participating rights or both under the respective ownership agreement. For entities in which the Company has less than a controlling interest but have significant influence, the Company accounts for the investment using the equity method of accounting. There are judgments and estimates involved in determining if an entity in which the Company has made an investment is a VIE and, if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. The entity is evaluated to determine if it is a VIE by, among other things, calculating the percentage of equity being risked compared to the total equity of the entity. Determining expected future losses involves assumptions of various possibilities of the results of future operations of the entity, assigning a probability to each possibility and using a discount rate to determine the net present value of those future losses. A change in the judgments, assumptions, and estimates outlined above could result in consolidating an entity that should not be consolidated or accounting for an investment using the equity method that should in fact be consolidated, the effects of which could be material to our financial statements. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and related notes as contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) and accruals necessary in the judgment of management for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Lightstone Value Plus REIT I, Inc. and its Subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during a reporting period. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of real estate and real-estate related investments, marketable securities, notes receivable, depreciable lives, and revenue recognition. Application of these assumptions requires the exercise of judgment as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 included herein has been derived from the consolidated balance sheet included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The unaudited consolidated statements of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any other period.

COVID-19 Pandemic	COVID-19 Pandemic On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic and it remains highly unpredictable and dynamic and its ultimate duration and extent continue to be dependent on various developments, such as the emergence of variants to the virus that may cause additional strains of COVID-19, and the ongoing development, administration and ultimate effectiveness of vaccines, including booster shots. Accordingly, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic may continue to have negative effects on the U.S. and global economies for the foreseeable future. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the occupancy of the Company’s St. Augustine Outlet Center significantly declined and because of limited leasing success, the Company began exploring various strategic alternatives for the property, which ultimately led to the Company ceasing operations of the center effective July 15, 2022 and demolishing the existing building and improvements during the third quarter of 2022. See “St. Augustine Outlet Center” for additional information. Additionally, during 2020 the Company saw deterioration in both the occupancy and rental rates for Gantry Park Landing, which is located on Long Island, New York, as the luxury rental market in the greater New York City metropolitan area was negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, both occupancy and rental rates consistently improved throughout 2021 and returned to pre-COVID-19 levels. Thereafter, occupancy has continued to remain stable and the property has experienced strong growth in its rental rates thus far in 2022. To-date, the COVID-19 pandemic has not had any significant impact on the Company’s development projects. Furthermore, the Company’s other real estate-related investments (both its preferred investment in related party and its nonrecourse loan made to an unaffiliated third-party borrower) also relate to various development projects, which are at different stages in their respective development process. These investments, which are subject to similar risks, have also not yet been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent to which the Company’s business may be affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will largely depend on both current and future developments, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be reasonably predicted. If the Company’s operating properties, development projects and real estate-related investments are negatively impacted for an extended period because (i) occupancy levels and rental rates decline, (ii) tenants are unable to pay their rent, (iii) borrowers are unable to pay scheduled debt service on notes receivable, (iv) development activities are delayed and/or (v) various related party entities are unable to pay monthly preferred distributions on the Company’s preferred investments in related parties, the Company’s business and financial results could be materially and adversely impacted.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
New Accounting Pronouncements	New Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which replaces the Company incurred loss impairment methodology currently in use with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company has reviewed and determined that other recently issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows, or do not apply to its current operations.
Supplemental Cash Flow Information	Supplemental Cash Flow Information Supplemental cash flow information for the periods indicated is as follows: Schedule of summary of supplemental cash flow information For the 2022 2021 Cash paid for interest $ 9,691 $ 6,424 Distributions declared but not paid $ 3,831 $ 3,889 Investment property acquired but not paid $ 2,059 $ 4,483 Amortization of deferred financing costs included in development projects $ 2,094 $ 848 Holding loss/gain on marketable securities $ 241 $ 43 Value of shares issued from distribution reinvestment program $ 249 $ 242 Accrued loan exit fee included in deferred financing costs $ - $ 1,100
St. Augustine Outlet Center	St. Augustine Outlet Center During the COVID-19 pandemic, the occupancy of the Company’s St. Augustine Outlet Center, a retail property located in St. Augustine Florida, which consisted of 0.3 11.3 Because of the aforementioned lease terminations and scheduled expirations, substantially all of the tenants vacated the property during the first quarter of 2022 and on June 29, 2022, the Company entered into a lease termination agreement with the property’s final tenant providing for them to receive an aggregate of $ 750 16.6 In connection with the terms of certain of the lease termination agreements, the Company agreed to make various payments to certain tenants provided they closed their store and vacated the property. The Company expenses lease termination fees in the period the lease termination agreement is executed and such expenses are included in property operating expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized aggregate lease termination fees of $ 825 425
