| SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 , has been derived from audited financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2019 , the condensed consolidated statements of operations and the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), for the three months ended March 31, 2019 , and for the three months ended March 31, 2018 , the condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2019 , and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2019 , and the three months ended March 31, 2018 , are unaudited. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared under GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature. The operating results presented for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 , which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 18, 2019. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and all its subsidiaries which are majority-owned, controlled by the Company or a variable interest entity where the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. VIEs An entity is referred to as a VIE if it lacks one or more of the following characteristics: (1) sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support provided by any parties, including the equity holders; (2) as a group the holders of the equity investment at risk have (a) the power, through voting rights or similar rights, to direct the activities of a legal entity that most significantly impacts the entity's economic performance, (b) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the legal entity and (c) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the legal entity; and (3) the voting rights of these investors are proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity, their rights to receive the expected returns of their equity, or both, and whether substantially all of the entity's activities involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately fewer voting rights. An investment that lacks one or more of the above three characteristics is considered to be a VIE. The Company reassesses its initial evaluation of an entity as a VIE based upon changes in the facts and circumstances pertaining to the VIE. VIEs are required to be consolidated by their primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is determined to be the party that has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. This determination may involve complex and subjective analyses. In general, the obligation to absorb losses is a function of holding a majority of the first loss tranche, while the ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIEs economic performance will be determined based upon the rights associated with acting as the directing certificate holder, or equivalent, in a given transaction. The Company is required to reconsider its evaluation of whether to consolidate a VIE each reporting period based upon changes in the facts and circumstances pertaining to the VIE. During the second quarter of 2018, the Company sold the first-loss securities of the Re-REMIC related to the FREMF 2011-K13 Trust, and as a result, having determined it is no longer the primary beneficiary of the trust, no longer consolidates the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of that trust. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2018, the Company sold the first-loss and subordinated tranches issued by the CSMC 2014-OAK1 Trust, and as a result, having determined it is no longer the primary beneficiary of the trust, no longer consolidates the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of the underlying trust. In the first quarter of 2019, the first-loss tranche of the Re-REMIC related to the FREMF 2012-KF01 Trust was redeemed, and as a result, having determined the Company is no longer the primary beneficiary of that trust, no longer consolidates the assets, liabilities, income and expense of the trust. The Company's maximum exposure to loss from consolidated trusts was $0 and $4,762,149 , respectively, at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 . At March 31, 2019 , the Company did not have any exposure to consolidated trusts. Additionally, the Company has evaluated its junior retained notes and preferred shares of Hunt CRE 2017-FL1, Ltd. and Hunt CRE 2018-FL2, Ltd. for potential consolidation. At March 31, 2019 , the Company determined it was the primary beneficiary of Hunt CRE 2017-FL1, Ltd. and Hunt CRE 2018-FL2, Ltd. based on its obligation to absorb losses derived from ownership of its preferred shares. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of the underlying issuing entities. The Company's maximum exposure to loss from collateralized loan obligations was $124,046,671 at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 . Use of Estimates The financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make a number of significant estimates. These include estimates of fair value of certain assets and liabilities, amount and timing of credit losses, prepayment rates, and other estimates that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of certain revenues and expenses during the reported period. It is likely that changes in these estimates (e.g. valuation changes due to supply and demand, credit performance, prepayments, interest rates, or other reasons) will occur in the near term. The Company’s estimates are inherently subjective in nature and actual results could differ from its estimates and the differences may be material. Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in bank accounts on an overnight basis and other short term deposit accounts with banks having original maturities of 90 days or less. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in highly rated financial institutions, and at times these balances exceed insurable amounts. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same amounts shown in the statements of cash flows. March 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Cash and cash equivalents $ 13,640,181 $ 7,882,862 Restricted cash CRE 2017-FL1, Ltd. 43,193,321 24,085,890 Restricted cash CRE 2018-FL2, Ltd. $ 9,155,666 $ 27,245,060 Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 65,989,168 $ 59,213,812 Restricted cash includes cash held within Hunt CRE 2017-FL1, Ltd. and Hunt CRE 2018-FL2, Ltd. for purposes of reinvestment in qualifying commercial mortgage loans. Deferred Income Previously, certain service revenues received in the period were recorded as a liability in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets in the line item “Deferred income”, for subsequent recognition as income in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations in the line item "Other income".. Deferred Offering Costs In accordance with ASC Subtopic 505-10, the direct costs incurred to issue shares classified as equity, such as legal and accounting fees, should be deducted from the related proceeds and the net amount recorded as stockholders’ equity. Accordingly, payments made by the Company in respect of such costs related to the issuance of shares are recorded as an asset in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in the line item “Deferred offering costs”, for subsequent deduction from the related proceeds upon closing of the offering. To the extent that certain costs, in particular legal fees, are known to have been accrued but have not yet been invoiced and paid, they are included in “Other accounts payable and accrued expenses” on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Commercial Mortgage Loans Held-for-Investment Commercial mortgage loans held-for-investment represent floating-rate transitional loans and other commercial mortgage loans purchased by the Company. These loans include loans sold into securitizations that the Company consolidates. Commercial mortgage loans held-for-investment are intended to be held-to-maturity and, accordingly, are carried at their unpaid principal balances, adjusted for net unamortized loan fees and costs (in respect of originated loans), premiums and discounts (in respect of purchased loans) and impairment, if any. Interest income is recognized as revenue using the effective interest method and is recorded on the accrual basis according to the terms of the underlying loan agreement. Any fees, premiums and discounts associated with these loan investments are recorded over the term of the loan using the effective interest method, or on a straight line basis when it approximates the effective interest method. Income accrual is generally suspended and loans are placed on non-accrual status on the earlier of the date at which payment has become 90 days past due or when full and timely collection of interest and principal is considered not probable. The Company may return a loan to accrual status when repayment of principal and interest is reasonably assured under the terms of the underlying loan agreement. As of March 31, 2019 , the Company did not hold any loans placed on non-accrual status. Quarterly, the Company assesses the risk factors of each loan classified as held-for-investment and assigns a risk rating based on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, debt-service coverage ratios ("DSCR"), loan-to-value ratio ("LTV"), property type, geographic and local market dynamics, physical condition, leasing and tenant profile, adherence to business plan and exit plan, maturity default risk and project sponsorship. Based on a 5-point scale, our loans are rated "1" through "5", from least risk to greatest risk, respectively, which ratings are described as follows: 1. Very Low Risk: exceeds expectations, outperforming underwriting 2. Low Risk: meeting expectations 3. Moderate Risk: a loss unlikely due to value and other indicators 4. High Risk: potential risk of default, a loss may occur in the event of default 5. Default Risk: imminent risk of default, a loss is likely in the event of default The Company evaluates each loan classified as held-for-investment which has High Risk or above rating for impairment on a quarterly basis. Impairment occurs when the Company determines that the facts and circumstances of the loan deem it probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. If a loan is considered to be impaired, an allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the loan through a charge to the provision for loan losses. Impairment of these loans, which are collateral dependent, is measured by comparing the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, to the book value of the respective loan. These valuations require significant judgments, which include assumptions regarding capitalization rates, leasing, creditworthiness of major tenants, occupancy rates, availability of financing, exit plan, actions of other lenders, and other factors deemed necessary by the Manager. Actual losses, if any, could ultimately differ from estimated losses. In addition, the Company evaluates the entire portfolio to determine whether the portfolio has any impairment that requires a valuation allowance on the remainder of the loan portfolio. As of March 31, 2019 , the Company has not recognized any impairments on its loans held-for-investment and therefore has not recorded any allowance for loan losses. Mortgage Servicing Rights and Excess Servicing Rights, at Fair Value Mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) are associated with residential mortgage loans that the Company historically purchased and subsequently sold or securitized. MSRs are held and managed at the Company’s TRS. As the owner of MSRs, the Company is entitled to receive a portion of the interest payments from the associated residential mortgage loan, and is obligated to service, directly or through a subservicer, the associated loan. MSRs are reported at fair value as a result of a fair value option election. See Note 3 - Fair Value Measurement below for additional detail. Residential mortgage loans for which the Company owns the MSRs are directly serviced by one or more sub-servicers retained by the Company, since the Company does not directly service any residential mortgage loans. MSR income is recognized at the contractually agreed rate, net of the costs of sub-servicers retained by the Company. If a sub-servicer with which the Company contracts were to default, an evaluation of MSR assets for impairment would be undertaken at that time. To the extent that the Company determines it is the primary beneficiary of a residential mortgage loan securitization trust into which it has sold loans, any associated MSRs are eliminated on the consolidation of the trust. The trust is contractually obligated to pay a portion of the interest payments from the associated residential mortgage loans for the direct servicing of the loans, and after deduction of sub-servicing fees payable to contracted sub-servicers, the net amount, excess servicing rights, represents a liability of the trust. See Note 3 - Fair Value Measurement below for additional detail. Collateralized Loan Obligations Collateralized loan obligations represent third-party liabilities of Hunt CRE 2017-FL1, Ltd. and Hunt CRE 2018-FL2, Ltd. (the "CLOs"). The CLOs are VIEs that the Company has determined it is the primary beneficiary and accordingly they are consolidated in the Company's financial statements, excluding liabilities of the CLOs acquired by the Company that are eliminated on consolidation. The third-party obligations of the CLOs do not have any recourse to the Company as the consolidator of the CLOs. Collateralized loan obligations are carried at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of any unamortized discounts or deferred financing costs. Any premiums and discounts or deferred financing costs associated with these liabilities are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected average life of the related obligations, or on a straight line basis when it approximates the effective interest method. Secured Term Loan The Company and certain of its subsidiaries are party to a $40.25 million Delayed Draw Facility with the lenders referred to therein and Cortland Capital Service LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent for the lenders (the "Secured Term Loan"). The Secured Term Loan is carried at its unpaid principal balance, net of deferred financing costs. Deferred financing costs of $970,545 associated with this liability are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the Secured Term Loan, or on a straight line basis when it approximates the effective interest method. Available-for-Sale Securities, at Fair Value Interest income on the Company’s Available-for-Sale ("AFS") securities portfolio, with the exception of Non-Agency RMBS IOs (as further described below), was accrued based on the actual coupon rate and the outstanding principal balance of such securities. The Company recognized interest income using the effective interest method for all AFS securities. As such, premiums and discounts were amortized or accreted into interest income over the lives of the securities in accordance with ASC 310-20, “Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs”, ASC 320-10, “Investments Debt and Equity Securities” or ASC 325-40, “Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets”, as applicable. Total interest income was recorded in the “Interest Income” line item on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. On at least a quarterly basis for securities accounted for under ASC 320-10 and ASC 310-20 (generally, Agency RMBS), prepayments of the underlying collateral were estimated, which directly affected the speed at which the Company amortized such securities. If actual and anticipated cash flows differed from previous estimates, the Company recognized a “catch-up” adjustment in the current period to the amortization of premiums for the impact of the cumulative change in the effective yield through the reporting date. Similarly, the Company also reassessed the cash flows on at least a quarterly basis for securities accounted for under ASC 325-40 and ASC 310-30 (generally Non-Agency RMBS and Multi-Family MBS). In estimating these cash flows, there were a number of assumptions that were subject to uncertainties and contingencies. These included the rate and timing of principal and interest receipts (including assumptions of prepayments, repurchases, defaults and liquidations), the pass-through or coupon rate and interest rate fluctuations. In addition, interest payment shortfalls due to delinquencies on the underlying mortgage loans were judgmentally estimated. Differences between previously estimated cash flows and current actual and anticipated cash flows were recognized prospectively through an adjustment of the yield over the remaining life of the security based on the current amortized cost of the investment as adjusted for credit impairment, if any. For investments purchased with evidence of deterioration of credit quality for which it was probable, at acquisition, that the Company would be unable to collect all contractually required payments receivable, the Company applied the provisions of ASC 310-30, “Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality.” ASC 310-30 addresses accounting for differences between contractual cash flows and cash flows expected to be collected from an investor’s initial investment in loans or debt securities acquired in a transfer if those differences are attributable, at least in part, to credit quality. ASC 310-30 limits the yield that may be accreted (accretable yield) to the excess of the investor’s estimate of undiscounted expected principal, interest and other cash flows (cash flows expected at acquisition to be collected) over the investor’s initial investment in the loan. ASC 310-30 requires that the excess of contractual cash flows over cash flows expected to be collected (nonaccretable difference) not be recognized as an adjustment of yield, loss accrual or valuation allowance. Subsequent increases in cash flows expected to be collected were generally recognized prospectively through adjustment of the investment’s yield over its remaining life. Decreases in cash flows expected to be collected were recognized as impairment to the extent that such decreases were due, at least in part, to an increase in credit loss expectations (“credit impairment”). To the extent that decreases in cash flows expected to be collected were the result of factors other than credit impairment, for example a change in rate of prepayments, such changes were generally recognized prospectively through adjustment of the investment’s yield over its remaining life. The Company’s accrual of interest, discount and premium for U.S. federal and other tax purposes was likely to differ from the financial accounting treatment of these items as described above. Gains and losses from the sale of AFS securities were recorded within "realized gain (loss) on investments, net" in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. Upon the sale of a security, the Company determined the cost of the security and the amount of unrealized gains or losses to reclassify out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings based on the specific identification method. Unrealized gains and losses on the Company’s AFS securities were recorded as "unrealized gain (loss) on available-for-sale securities, net" in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Impairment The Company evaluated its MBS, on a quarterly basis, to assess whether a decline, if any, in the fair value of an AFS security below the Company's amortized cost basis was an other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”). The presence of OTTI was based upon a fair value decline below a security's amortized cost basis and a corresponding adverse change in expected cash flows due to credit related factors as well as non-credit factors, such as changes in interest rates and market spreads. Impairment is considered other-than-temporary if an entity (i) intends to sell the security, (ii) will more likely than not be required to sell the security before it recovers in value or (iii) does not expect to recover the security's amortized cost basis, even if the entity does not intend to sell the security. Under these scenarios, the impairment is other-than-temporary and the full amount of impairment should be recognized currently in earnings and the cost basis of the investment security is adjusted. However, if an entity does not intend to sell the impaired debt security and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell before recovery, OTTI should be recognized to the extent that a decrease in future cash flows expected to be collected is due, at least in part, to an increase in credit impairment. A decrease in future cash flows due to factors other than credit, for example a change in the rate of prepayments, is considered a non-credit impairment. The full amount of the difference between the security’s previous and new cost basis resulting from credit impairment is recognized currently in earnings, and the difference between the new amortized cost basis and the cash flows expected to be collected is accreted as interest income in accordance with the effective interest method. Decreases in cash flows expected to be collected resulting from non-credit impairment are generally recognized prospectively through adjustment of the investment’s yield over its remaining life. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Company no longer held any AFS securities. Multi-Family and Residential Mortgage Loans Held in Securitization Trusts Multi-family and residential mortgage loans held in consolidated securitization trusts were comprised of multi-family mortgage loans held in the FREMF 2011-K13 Trust and the FREMF 2012-KF01Trust, and residential mortgage loans held in the CSMC 2014-OAK1. Based on a number of factors, the Company determined it was the primary beneficiary of the VIE underlying the trust, met the criteria for consolidation and, accordingly, consolidated the trust, including its assets, liabilities, income and expenses in its financial statements. The Company elected the fair value option on each of the assets and liabilities held within the trusts. See Note 3 - Fair Value Measurement below for additional detail. The Company sold the subordinated securities of the FREMF 2011-K13 Trust on May 18, 2018 and the CSMC 2014-OAK1 Trust on June 18, 2018, and having determined that it was no longer the primary beneficiary of either trust as of those dates, the Company no longer consolidated either trust as of those dates. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2019, the first-loss tranche of the re-REMIC related to the FREMF 2012-KF01 Trust paid-in full, and as a result, having determined the Company is no longer the primary beneficiary of the trust, no longer consolidates the assets, liabilities, income and expense of the trust. Interest income on multi-family and residential mortgage loans held in securitization trusts was recognized at the loan coupon rate. Interest income recognition was suspended when mortgage loans were placed on non-accrual status. The accrual of interest on loans was discontinued when, in management’s opinion, the interest was considered non-collectible, and in all cases when payment became greater than 90 days past due. Loans returned to accrual status when principal and interest became current and were anticipated to be fully collectible. As of March 31, 2019 , the Company no longer held any multi-family securitization trusts and as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively, the Company no longer held any residential securitization trusts. Repurchase Agreements The Company previously financed the acquisition of certain of its mortgage-backed securities through the use of repurchase agreements. Our repurchase agreements were generally short-term debt, which expired within one year. Borrowings under repurchase agreements generally bear interest rates at a specified margin over LIBOR and are generally uncommitted. In accordance with ASC 860 “Transfers and Servicing” the Company accounts for the repurchase agreements as collateralized financing transactions and they are carried at their contractual amounts, as specified in the respective agreements. The contractual amounts approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Company no longer had any repurchase agreements outstanding. Multi-Family and Residential Securitized Debt Obligations Multi-family and residential securitized debt obligations represented third-party liabilities of the FREMF 2011-K13 Trust, FREMF 2012-KF01 Trust and CSMC 2014-OAK1 Trust, and excluded the liabilities of the trust acquired by the Company that were eliminated on consolidation. The third-party obligations of the trust did not have any recourse to the Company as the consolidator of each trust. As of March 31, 2019 the Company no longer had any multi-family securitized debt obligations outstanding and as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively, the Company no longer had any residential securitized debt obligations outstanding. Backstop Guarantees The Company, through FOAC and in return for fees, provides seller eligibility and backstop guarantee services in respect of residential mortgage loans that are traded through one or more loan exchanges operated by MAXEX LLC (“MAXEX”). On June 27, 2018, FOAC entered into an amendment with MAXEX pursuant to which, amongst other things, FOAC's obligations to provide such seller eligibility and backstop guarantee services terminated at 11:59 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on December 31, 2018 or sooner, at MAXEX's option. See Note 14 and Note 15 for additional information regarding MAXEX. To the extent that a loan seller approved by FOAC fails to honor its obligations to repurchase one or more loans based on an arbitration finding that such seller has breached its representations and warranties, FOAC provides a backstop guarantee of the repurchase obligation. The Company has evaluated its backstop guarantees pursuant to ASC 460, Guarantees, and has determined them to be performance guarantees, for which ASC 460 contains initial recognition and measurement requirements, and related disclosure requirements. FOAC is obligated in two respects: (i) a noncontingent liability, which represents FOAC's obligation to stand ready to perform under the terms of the guarantee in the event that the specified triggering event(s) occur; and (ii) the contingent liability, which represents FOAC’s obligation to make future payments if those triggering events occur. FOAC recognized the noncontingent liability at the inception of the guarantee at the fair value, which is the fee received or receivable, and is recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as a liability in the line item “Deferred income.” The Company amortizes these fees into income on a straight-line basis over five years , based on an assumed constant prepayment rate of 15% for residential mortgage loans and other observable data. The Company’s contingent liability is accounted for pursuant to ASC 450, Contingencies, pursuant to which the contingent liability must be recognized when its payment becomes probable and reasonably estimable. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Company no longer had any backstop guarantee obligations outstanding. Common Stock At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Company was authorized to issue up to 450,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company had 23,687,664 shares of common stock issued and outstanding at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 . Stock Repurchase Program On December 15, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program (“Repurchase Program”), to repurchase up to $10 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Subject to applicable securities laws, repurchase of common stock under the Repurchase Program may be made at times and in amounts as the Company deems appropriate, using available cash resources. Shares of common stock repurchased by the Company under the Repurchase Program, if any, will be canceled and, until reissued by the Company, will be deemed to be authorized but unissued shares of common stock. The Repurchase Program may be suspended or discontinued by the Company at any time and without prior notice. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had repurchased 126,856 shares of common stock at a weighted average share price of $5.09 . There was no common stock repurchase activity for the three months ended March 31, 2019 . As of March 31, 2019 , $9.4 million of common stock remained authorized for future share repurchases under the Repurchase Program. Preferred Stock On February 14, 2019, the Company redeemed all 1,610,000 shares of its outstanding 8.75% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock at its $25 per share liquidation preference plus accrued and unpaid dividends. At December 31, 2018 , the Company was authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s Board. The Company had 1,610,000 shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding at December 31, 2018 . Income Taxes The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes, commencing with the Company’s short taxable period ended December 31, 2012. A REIT is generally taxable as a U.S. C-Corporation; however, so long as the Company qualifies as a REIT it is entitled to a special deduction for dividends paid to shareholders not otherwise available to corporations. Accordingly, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent its distributions to stockholders equals, or exceeds, its REIT taxable income for the year. In addition, the Company must continue to meet certain REIT qualification requirements with respect to distributions, as well as certain asset, income and share ownership tests, in accordance with Sections 856 through 860 of the Code, as summarized below. In addition, the TRS is maintained to perform certain services and earn income for the Company that would potentially disqualify the Company from qualifying as a REIT. To maintain its qualification as a REIT, the Company must meet certain requirements (including but not limited to the following: (i) distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its stockholde |
