FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Semiannual Report on Form 1-SA (the “Form 1-SA”) of Iron Bridge Mortgage Fund, LLC (the “Company”) includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by the use of words such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” and other similar words or expressions. Such statements include information concerning our plans, expectations, possible or assumed future results of operations, trends, financial results and business plans, and involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and subject to change based on various important factors, many of which are beyond our control. Such factors include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of our amended Offering Circular dated September 5, 2019 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 10, 2019 (the “Offering Circular”). These and other important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking information and statements. The forward-looking statements included in this Form 1-SA speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we do not intend, and assume no obligation, to update those forward-looking statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements contained in this Form 1-SA are expressly qualified by these cautionary statements. Statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements.
The historical results described in this Form 1-SA with respect to previous mortgage lending are historical only, and were influenced by available opportunities, diverse market conditions and other factors beyond the control of the Company. Any projections made in this Form 1-SA are based on historical examples and the Company’s estimates of future conditions. There is no assurance that lending opportunities experienced in the past will occur in the future, that market conditions will be as favorable to the Company as they have been in the past, or that investors will enjoy returns on their investment comparable to those enjoyed by them or by others with respect to their participation in other investments sponsored by the Manager. The actual results experienced by the Company will differ, and such variation is likely to be material.
ITEM 1 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is management’s discussion and analysis of the Company’s results of operation, financial condition, and liquidity.
Overview
We are a private lender formed in 2009 as an Oregon limited liability company. The Company makes commercial purpose loans by lending funds to real estate investors to finance the ownership, entitlement, development and redevelopment of residential and commercial real estate throughout the United States. We generate most of our revenue from interest on loans and loan fees. Our loan portfolio consists of a mix of single-family and multi-family redevelopment and new construction projects. Our primary source of funding is private debt and Bank Borrowings. Our largest expenses are management fees paid to the Manager, Iron Bridge Management Group LLC, and interest paid on private debt and Bank Borrowings. We measure our performance through various metrics, including our net income, net margin, net interest rate spread, net interest margin, ratio of interest-earning assets to interest-bearing liabilities, non-performing loans to total loans, late fee and default interest from non-performing loans, charge-offs on non-performing loans, estimated active portfolio loan-to-value compared to actual paid-off portfolio loan-to-sale price, and interest coverage ratios.
Critical Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates
Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and which could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. The Company believes that the most critical accounting policies upon which its financial condition depends, and which involve the most complex or subjective decisions or assessments, are set forth below.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense, which affects our earnings directly. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when the Company believes that the collectability of all or some of the principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries are added to the allowance. The allowance is an amount that reflects the Company’s estimate of the level of probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. Factors considered by the Company in determining the adequacy of the allowance include, but are not limited to, detailed reviews of individual loans, historical and current trends in loan charge-offs for the various portfolio segments evaluated, the level of the allowance in relation to total loans and to historical loss levels, levels and trends in non-performing and past due loans, external factors including regulatory, competition, and the Company’s assessment of economic conditions.
The provision for loan losses is the charge to operating earnings necessary to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses. We have developed policies and procedures for evaluating the overall quality of our loan portfolio and the timely identification of problem loans. The Company continuously reviews these policies and procedures and makes further improvements as needed. However, the Company’s methodology may not accurately estimate inherent loss or external factors and changing economic conditions may impact the loan portfolio and the level of reserves in ways currently unforeseen.
The following table sets forth the beginning and ending balance of allowance for loan losses, the provision for loan losses taken during that period, and the amount of loan charge-offs taken during that period:

As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s allowance for loan losses balance was $882,461, or 1.2%, of the unpaid principal balance (“UPB”) of Portfolio Loans. During the preceding six months, the Company recognized provisions for loan losses of $444,485 and $377,971 in loan charge-offs. The increase in provisions for loan losses was primarily attributable to the gain on sale from one cross collateralized REO asset being used to charge off losses on the sale of two other REO assets.
By comparison, as of June 30, 2018 the Company’s allowance for loan losses balance was $900,272, or 1.3%, of the UPB of Portfolio Loans. During the preceding six months, the Company recognized provisions for loan losses of $10,000 and no loan charge-offs.
As of December 31, 2018, the Company’s allowance for loan losses balance was $815,947, or 1.2%, of UPB. During the preceding 12 months, the Company recognized provisions for loan losses of $90,275 and $164,598 in loan charge-offs.
Based on the low amount of historical charge-offs, and the Company’s expectation of stable portfolio performance in the near term, the Company expects to accrue a provision for loan losses at a rate of between 0% and 1.0% annualized.

REO and Foreclosed Assets. Assets acquired through or in lieu of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are performed annually and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in other non-interest income or expense. Costs related to the development and improvement of REO assets are capitalized.
Due to the subjective nature of establishing the asset’s fair value when it is acquired, the actual fair value of the REO or foreclosed asset could differ from the original estimate. If it is determined that fair value declines subsequent to foreclosure, a valuation allowance is recorded through non-interest expense. Gains and losses on the disposition of REO and foreclosed assets are netted and posted to other non-interest income or expenses.
Fair Value of Mortgage Loans Receivable. The Company has the intent and ability to hold its mortgage loans to maturity. Therefore, mortgage loans are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balance with interest thereon being accrued as earned. Mortgage loans receivable make up the only class of financing receivables within the Company’s lending portfolio.
If the probable ultimate recovery of the carrying amount of a loan, with due consideration for the fair value of collateral, is less than amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement and the shortfall in the amounts due are not insignificant, the carrying amount of the loan will be reduced to the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. If a loan is collateral-dependent, it is valued at the estimated fair value of the related collateral. If events and or changes in circumstances cause the Company to have serious doubts about the further collectability of the contractual payments, a loan may be categorized as impaired and interest is no longer accrued. Any subsequent payments on impaired loans are applied to reduce the outstanding loan balances including accrued interest and advances.
Deferred Loan Origination Fees. The Company will capitalize loan origination fees and recognize the fees as an adjustment of the yield on the related loan. Deferred loan origination fees are accreted to income over the life of the loan under the effective interest method.
The following table sets forth the deferred loan origination fee balances and associated accretion into income for the time periods indicated:

As of June 30, 2019, deferred loan origination fees were $607,939, and the Company accreted into income $796,828 of deferred loan origination fees during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
By comparison, as of June 30, 2018, deferred loan origination fees were $590,564, and the Company accreted into income $889,221 of deferred loan origination fees during the six months ended June 30, 2018.
As of December 31, 2018, deferred loan origination fees were $458,490, and the Company accreted into income $1,942,449 of deferred loan origination fees during the year ended December 31, 2018.

The lower amount of income accretion during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 reflected a smaller percentage of Portfolio Loans that carried high loan origination fees and low interest rates. The Company offers its borrowers loan options with a combination of low origination fees and high interest rates or loans with high origination fees and low interest rates. While the yield earned by the Company on these loan options is similar, changes in the percentage of Portfolio Loans with high origination fees can affect the amount of interest income derived from deferred loan origination fees.
Income Taxes. The Company is a limited liability company for federal and state income tax purposes. Under the laws pertaining to income taxation of limited liability companies, the Company as an entity pays no federal income tax. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes besides the minimum state franchise taxes and the LLC gross receipts fees are reflected in the Company’s financial statements. The Company has evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of June 30, 2019, the Company does not have any significant uncertain tax positions for which a reserve would be necessary.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 and 2018
Net Income, Net Margin and Net Interest Rate Spread. Net income was $1,204,399 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $1,478,486 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, a decrease of $274,087 or 18.5%.
Net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was 7.734% and 9.141%, respectively. Similarly, the net interest rate spread for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was 6.600% and 7.634%, respectively.
The decrease in net income, net interest margin and net interest rate spread was primarily attributable to a reduction in the average interest rate earned on interest bearing assets more than offsetting the reduction in the average interest rate paid on interest bearing liabilities.
Interest Income. Total interest income decreased $146,973, or 3.1%, to $4,667,840 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $4,814,813 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in interest income was primarily the result of a 113 basis point decline in the average yield earned on interest-earning assets more than offsetting a 5.0% increase in average interest-earning assets.
The average daily balance of cash during the six months ended June 2019 and 2018 was $599,746 and $656,331, respectively. Interest income earned on those cash balances during that time was immaterial.
Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased $190,197, or 10.6%, to $1,984,361 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $1,794,164 for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Interest expense paid on Junior Notes decreased $32,199, or 2.8%, to $1,105,687 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $1,137,886 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease was driven by both a $618,727, or 2.2%, decrease in the average balance of Junior Notes outstanding to $28.1 million from $28.7 million, and a 6 basis point decrease in the yield paid on those Junior Notes to 7.940% from 7.995%. This decline in yield paid reflects the initial cost savings from Junior Note refinancing from 8% to 7%, which began in May 2019 and is expected to be completed in October 2019.
Interest expense paid on Senior Notes increased $255,621, or 399.8%, to $319,565 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $63,944 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This increase was driven by an $8.6 million, or 400.1%, increase in the average balance of Senior Notes outstanding to $10.7 million from $2.1 million. The average interest rate paid on Senior Notes remained constant at 6%.
Interest expense on Bank Borrowings decreased $33,225, or 5.6%, to $559,109 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $592,334 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease was attributable to an 8.8% decrease in average Bank Borrowings to $18.6 million from $20.4 million, which more than offset a 20 basis point increase in the yield paid on those Bank Borrowings. The increase in yield paid on Bank Borrowings was the result of interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased $337,170, or 11.2%, to $2,683,479 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $3,020,649 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease resulted primarily from a $146,973 decrease in interest income combined with a $190,197 increase in interest expense, which corresponded to an increase in our average interest-earning assets to $69.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $66.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
The decrease in interest income was primarily the result of increased industry pricing pressure and associated reductions in the yield earned on interest-earning assets. The increase in interest expense was primarily attributable to an increase in total loan portfolio size and an increase in the interest rate paid on the Company’s line of credit, which more than offset the reduction in interest expense from the Company’s Junior Note refinancing from 8% to 7% and its new Senior Note offering.
Rental Property Income. Rental property income increased $217,923 to $236,733 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $18,810 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase resulted primarily from the redevelopment and lease up of the Company’s rental properties.
Other Income. Other income increased $196,117, or 57.3%, to $538,562 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $342,445 for the first six months of 2018. Other income generally includes late payment fees and default interest related to non-performing loans, income from REO Assets held for sale, and reversals in the allowance for loan losses used to offset losses on the sale of REO Assets. We expect this income to vary between periods driven by the number of non-performing loans, timing of non-performing loan payoffs, collectability of default interest and late fees on non-performing loans, and the profitability of REO asset sales.
Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $249,188, or 12.5%, to $2,242,915 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $1,993,727 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The largest increase in non-interest expense was a $434,485 increase in the provision for loan losses to $444,485 from $10,000. See “Provision for Loan losses” below for additional details. The largest decrease in non-interest expense was a $266,456 decrease in the incentive fees paid to $185,679 from $452,135, reflecting the decline in net income between periods.
Provision for Loan losses. Based on our analysis of loan portfolio performance, as outlined above in “Critical Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates – Allowance for Loan Losses,” the Company recorded a provision of $444,485 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $10,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2018. The allowance for loan losses was $882,461, or 1.2% of total unpaid principal balance at June 30, 2019, compared to $900,272, or 1.3% of total unpaid principal balance at June 30, 2018. Total delinquent loans were $1.7 million, or 2.3%, of the total unpaid principal balance at June 30, 2019 compared to $3.3 million, or 4.8%, of the total unpaid principal balance at June 30, 2018. The allowance for loan losses reflects the estimate we believe to be appropriate to cover probable incurred losses inherent in the loan portfolio at June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018.
The increase in provision-for-loan-losses during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to the gain on sale from one cross-collateralized REO asset being used to offset losses on the sale of two other REO assets. The Company recognized a gain on sale of $330,058, provision for loan losses of $444,485 and loan charge-offs of $377,971.
It is important to point out that the Company’s policy is to categorize a loan as both a Delinquent Loan and Non-Performing Loan and to begin the foreclosure process if the Company has not received payment from the borrower within 30 days of the due date. Industry standard is to categorize a loan as Delinquent for the first 90 days and then to categorize the loan as Non-Performing after 90 days. We believe that our more aggressive policy is appropriate given that our loans have shorter maturities relative to traditional loans. This policy enables the Company to get an earlier start on the foreclosure process should the loan continue to remain delinquent (the time to foreclose on a property can range from 75 to 140 days in non-judicial states and longer in judicial states or if the borrower files bankruptcy). However, this more conservative policy does tend to generate more Non-Performing Loans that are ultimately cured.
Income Taxes. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were $8,587 and $8,090, respectively. This tax expense is related to municipal franchise taxes. Under the laws pertaining to income taxation of limited liability companies, the Company as an entity pays no federal income tax.

Equity. On April 1, 2009, the Company commenced a private placement equity offering of 10% Preferred, Participating LLC ownership interests. The private placement offering represents all of the Company’s equity and is a continuous offering that allows the Company to raise additional equity as needed. Equity investors are able to redeem equity units, subject to certain restrictions.
At June 30, 2019, equity equaled $20.4 million, an increase of $0.3 million, or 1.5%, from $20.1 million at June 30, 2018, and an increase of $0.1 million, or 0.4%, from $20.3 million at December 31, 2018. The Company maintained an equity balance slightly over $20 million in all periods to comply with bank covenants, Senior Note covenants and to optimize the capital structure of the loan portfolio.
Bank Borrowings. The Company has a $40 million line of credit from Western Alliance Bank. This revolving line of credit is collateralized by all of the Company’s assets, including all of its Portfolio Loans, and is senior in priority to the Senior Notes and the Junior Notes. While the line of credit does provide leverage and a source of low cost capital to make loans, the primary benefit to the Company is cash management. Because the revolving line of credit allows the Company to draw on and pay down the line of credit daily, the Company can use the line of credit to efficiently manage the ebbs and flows of Portfolio Loan funding and payoffs while keeping investor capital fully utilized. The revolving line of credit can also provide the Company with liquidity to meet investor withdrawal requests.
The line of credit is subject to a “borrowing base” limitation. The borrowing base is an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 60 percent of the outstanding balance of the Company’s Portfolio Loans or, (ii) 45 percent of the appraised value of the collateral securing a defined segment of the Company’s Portfolio Loans; subject to certain adjustments and exclusions and subject to a cap of $40 million. At June 30, 2019, the borrowing base was approximately $35 million. Under the line of credit, the Company is also required to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants, including maintenance at the end of each calendar quarter of (a) a debt to equity ratio that does not exceed 0.50 to 1.00 (calculated as the outstanding line of credit balance divided by the sum of equity, Junior Notes and Senior Notes); (b) a minimum tangible net worth of $20,000,000; (c) compensating balances of $750,000 in account at Western Alliance Bank; (d) minimum annual profitability of not less than $1 million recorded on a trailing 12 month basis; (e) minimum adjusted equity of $40 million; and (f) a debt service coverage ratio of not less than 2.00 to 1.00. As of June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all of the foregoing financial covenants.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and the year ended December 31, 2018, average line of credit utilization during each period was 47%, 51% and 68%, respectively. The maximum available commitment under the line of credit as a percentage of loan portfolio UPB at end of period was 55%, 59% and 58%, respectively. However, the average line of credit balance as a percentage of the average loan portfolio UPB during each period was 27%, 31% and 34%, respectively.
The Company targets a line of credit utilization rate of 50-70%, which allows the Company to meet unanticipated loan requests from borrowers or unanticipated withdrawal requests from investors. Similarly, if the Company’s Portfolio Loans pay off faster than anticipated or if new loan originations do not match the rate of loan payoffs, the line of credit can be paid down while keeping investor capital fully utilized.
Junior Notes. On May 1, 2010, the Company commenced a private placement offering of secured promissory notes with six-month maturities offering an interest rate of 12% per annum. On April 1, 2015, the Company amended the offering, reducing the interest rate to 10% per annum. On April 1, 2017, the Company amended the offering again, reducing the interest rate to 8% per annum. On April 1, 2019, the Company amended the offering again, reducing the interest rate to 7% per annum. Junior Notes are subordinate to the Senior Notes and Bank Borrowings.

Junior Notes declined in both absolute dollars and as a percentage of total assets as a result of the Company closing the Junior Notes to new investors, refinancing the interest rate on Junior Notes from 8% to 7% and initiating the Senior Note offering.
Senior Notes. On March 1, 2018, the Company commenced a private debt offering of Senior Secured Demand Notes. The offering was qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission in February 2018.

As of June 30, 2019 and 2018, and December 31, 2018, Senior Notes were $17.3 million (21% of total assets), $4.1 million (5% of total assets) and $8.1 million (10% of total assets), respectively. Senior Notes increased in both absolute dollars and as a percentage of total assets primarily as a result of the Company closing the Junior Notes to new investors, refinancing the interest rate on Junior Notes from 8% to 7% and initiating the Senior Note offering.
The Company anticipates that Senior Notes will continue to increase as a percentage of total assets as the Company works to lower its blended cost of capital by increasing the percentage of Senior Notes relative to Junior Notes and equity.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. In the normal course of operations, the Company engages in financial transactions that, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, are not recorded in its financial statements. Specifically, the Company does not charge interest to borrowers on loan proceeds held back for construction until the funds are disbursed. Upon disbursement, the incremental loan proceeds are added to the existing unpaid principal balance of the loan. This practice requires the Company to categorize these held back loan proceeds as an unfunded loan balance.

The Company’s loan portfolio is heavily weighted toward rehab projects, which generally require a lower unfunded loan balance as a percentage of the total UPB, when compared to new construction projects.

The Fund will continue in perpetuity, at the sole discretion of the Manager, unless dissolved under provisions of the operating agreement at an earlier date.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Management estimates and related risks
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions about the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Such estimates relate principally to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and fair value of real estate owned. Although these estimates reflect management's best estimates, it is at least reasonably possible that a material change to these estimates could occur.
The fair value of real estate, in general, is impacted by current real estate and financial market conditions. The real estate and mortgage lending financial markets have stabilized with many of the markets for which the Fund has loans and related loan collateral showing signs of appreciating fair values for the years presented. However, should these markets experience significant declines, the resulting collateral values of the Fund's loans will likely be negatively impacted. The impact to such values could be significant and as a result, the Fund's actual loan losses and proceeds from the sales of real estate held could differ significantly from management's current estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents
The Fund considers all highly liquid financial instruments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash on deposit occasionally exceeds federally insured limits. The Fund believes that it mitigates this risk by maintaining deposits with major financial institutions.
Mortgage loans receivable
Mortgage loans, which the Fund has the intent and ability to hold to maturity, generally are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balance with interest thereon being accrued as earned. Mortgage loans receivable make up the only class of financing receivables within the Fund's lending portfolio. As a result, further segmentation of the loan portfolio is not considered necessary.
If the probable ultimate recovery of the carrying amount of a loan, with due consideration for the fair value of collateral, is less than amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement and the shortfall in the amounts due are not insignificant, the carrying amount of the investment shall be reduced to the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate. If a loan is collateral dependent, it is valued at the estimated fair value of the related collateral.
Interest is accrued daily based on the principal of the loans. If events and or changes in circumstances cause management to have serious doubts about the further collectability of the contractual payments, a loan may be categorized as impaired and interest is no longer accrued. Any subsequent payments on impaired loans are applied to reduce the outstanding loan balances including accrued interest and advances.
Allowance for loan losses
Loans and the related accrued interest are analyzed on a periodic basis for recoverability. Delinquencies are identified and followed as part of the loan system. A provision is made for loan losses to adjust the allowance for loan losses to an amount considered by management to be adequate, with due consideration to collateral value, to provide for unrecoverable loans and receivables, including impaired loans, accrued interest and advances on loans. As a collateral-based lender, the Fund does not consider credit risks which may be inherent in a further segmented loan portfolio as a basis for determining the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses but rather focuses solely on the underlying collateral value of the loans in its portfolio to do so. As a result, the Fund does not consider further segmentation of its loan portfolio and related disclosures necessary. The Fund writes off uncollectible loans and related receivables directly to the allowance for loan losses once it is determined that the full amount is not collectible.

Property and equipment
Rental property is recorded at cost and allocated between land and building based upon their relative fair values at acquisition. Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life, increase capacity or improve the efficiency of the asset. Investment costs are capitalized while activities are ongoing to prepare an asset for its intended use. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense when incurred.
Depreciation begins once the asset is ready to be placed into service and is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Buildings and improvements are depreciated over periods ranging from 15 to 27.5 years.
Impairment of long-lived assets
The Fund continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances occur, the Fund assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company records an impairment charge based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, less selling costs, of the asset.
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. The Fund determines the fair values of its assets and liabilities based on a fair value hierarchy that includes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value (Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3).
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market is a market in which transactions occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk). Unobservable inputs are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and may include the Fund's own data.

Fair value measurements (continued)
The Fund does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis but uses fair value measurements of collateral security in the determination of its allowance for loan losses. The fair value for real estate owned and impaired secured loans is determined using the sales comparison, income and other commonly used valuation approaches.
The following table reflects the Fund's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

| $ | 3,315,361 |
|
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of assets and liabilities:
| (a) | Secured loans (Level 2 and Level 3). For loans in which a specific allowance is established based on the fair value of the collateral, the Fund records the loan as nonrecurring Level 2 if the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value. If an appraised value is not available or the fair value of the collateral is considered impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Fund records the loan as nonrecurring Level 3. |
|
|
|
| (b) | Real estate owned (Level 2 and Level 3). At the time of foreclosure, real estate owned is recorded at the lower of the recorded investment in the loan, plus any senior indebtedness, or at the property's estimated fair value, less estimated costs to sell, as applicable. The Fund periodically compares the carrying value of real estate held for use to expected undiscounted future cash flows for the purpose of assessing the recoverability of the recorded amounts. If the carrying value exceeds future undiscounted cash flows, the assets are reduced to estimated fair value. If the future undiscounted cash flows of real estate held for use exceed the carrying value or the fair value less estimated costs to sell for other than held for use real estate exceeds the carrying value, the asset value is recaptured to the estimated fair value, but not to exceed the original basis in the property after reversion. The Fund records real estate owned as nonrecurring Level 2 if the fair value of the real estate owned is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value. If an appraised value is not available and there is no observable market price, the Fund records real estate owned as nonrecurring Level 3. |

Real estate held for sale
Real estate acquired through or in lieu of loan foreclosure that is to be held for any purpose other than use in operations, is initially recorded at the lower of the recorded investment in the loan, plus any senior indebtedness, or at fair value less estimated selling cost at the date of foreclosure if the plan of disposition is by way of sale. Any write-downs based on the asset's fair value at the date of acquisition are charged to the allowance for loan losses. After foreclosure, real estate held for sale is carried at the lower of the new cost basis or fair value less estimated costs to sell.
Costs of real estate improvements are capitalized, whereas costs relating to holding real estate are expensed. The portion of interest costs relating to development of real estate is capitalized.
Impairment losses of real estate held and held for sale are measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of a property exceeds its fair value less estimated costs to sell. Impairment losses of real estate held for use are determined by comparing the expected future undiscounted cash flows of the property, including any costs that must be incurred to achieve those cash flows, to the carrying amount of the property. If those net cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the property, impairment is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Valuations are periodically performed by management, and any subsequent write-downs are recorded as a charge to operations.
Deferred loan origination fees
The Fund will capitalize loan origination fees and recognize the fees as an adjustment of the yield on the related loan. Deferred loan origination fees are amortized to income over the life of the loan under the effective interest method. Deferred loan origination fees of $607,939 at June 30, 2019 and $590,564 at June 30, 2018 have been included in mortgage loans receivable, net, on the accompanying balance sheet. Deferred loan origination fees of $796,828 during the first six months of 2019, and $889,221 during the first six months of 2018 were amortized into income during each applicable period.

Line of credit origination fees
The Fund has capitalized the related costs incurred in connection with its borrowings under the line of credit. These costs are being amortized using the straight-line method through maturity of the line of credit. The prepaid loan fees related to the line of credit are presented in the balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the line of credit.
Subscription liability
The Fund accepts subscription agreements and funds from prospective investors who wish to become members of the Fund. If approved for admittance into the Fund, the subscription funds are maintained in a separate subscription account until such time as the funds are needed in the normal course of the Fund's operations. Due to the calculation of the incentive fee, the Fund does not allow mid-month contributions or withdrawals. If the subscription funds are needed in the normal course of the Fund's operations on any day other than the first day of the month, the subscription funds will be borrowed at an annual rate of 6% for the odd days within the month the borrowing took place. After the monthly distribution is processed, the subscription fund borrowings, plus any interest accrued thereon, will be recognized as member contributions on behalf of the subscribing member. There were no subscription fund borrowings as of June 30, 2019 and 2018.
Income taxes
The Fund is a limited liability company for federal and state income tax purposes. Under the laws pertaining to income taxation of limited liability companies, no federal income tax is paid by the Fund as an entity. Individual members report on their federal and state income tax returns their share of Fund income, gains, losses, deductions and credits, whether or not any actual distribution is made to such member during a taxable year. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes besides the applicable minimum state tax or fees would be reflected in the accompanying financial statements.
The Fund has evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of the periods ending June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Fund does not have any significant uncertain tax positions for which a reserve would be necessary.
