Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X, as appropriate. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements may not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual consolidated financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of, and for the year ended December 31, 2020, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 11, 2021. Use of Estimates GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. In the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments, of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the entire year or any subsequent interim periods. In response to the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, numerous countries, including the U.S., have declared national emergencies with respect to COVID-19 and certain jurisdictions, including those where our corporate headquarters and/or properties that secure our investments, or properties that the Company owns, are located, have at times imposed “stay-at-home” guidelines or orders or other restrictions to help prevent its spread. The effects of COVID-19 may negatively and materially impact significant estimates and assumptions used by the Company including, but not limited to estimates of expected credit losses, valuation of our equity investments and the fair value estimates of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the other partners or members, as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company has determined the OP is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held by the OP. The Company consolidates all entities that it controls through either majority ownership or voting rights. In addition, the Company consolidates all VIEs of which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. VIEs are entities in which equity investors (i) do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and/or (ii) do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The entity that consolidates a VIE is its primary beneficiary and is generally the entity with (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) issued and securitized by wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The Company has determined the CLOs are VIEs of which the Company’s subsidiary is the primary beneficiary. The assets and liabilities of the CLOs are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation. Acquisition Expenses The Company capitalizes certain direct costs relating to loan origination activities. The cost is amortized over the life of the loan and recognized in interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Acquisition expenses paid on future funding amounts are expensed within the acquisition expenses line in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash consists of amounts deposited with high quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company up to an insurance limit. Cash equivalents include short-term, liquid investments in money market funds with original maturities of 90 days or less when purchased. Restricted Cash Restricted cash primarily consists of cash pledged as margin on repurchase agreements and derivative transactions. The duration of this restricted cash generally matches the duration of the related repurchase agreements or derivative transaction. Commercial Mortgage Loans Held for Investment - Held for Sale - Held for Sale, Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option - Real estate owned Real estate owned (“REO”) assets represent real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or purchase. REO assets are carried at their estimated fair value at acquisition and are presented net of accumulated depreciation and impairment charges. The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired real estate assets based on the fair value of the acquired assets such as land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment. Asset acquisitions in which monetary consideration is given generally include the transaction costs of the asset acquisition. Acquiring assets in groups requires not only ascertaining the cost of the asset (or net asset) group but also allocating that cost to the individual assets (or individual assets and liabilities) that make up the group. The cost of a group of assets acquired in an asset acquisition shall be allocated to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values and shall not give rise to goodwill. Real estate owned assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings and improvements and up to 15 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Renovations and/or replacements that improve or extend the life of the real estate owned assets are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Real estate owned revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer. The Company is considered to have satisfied all performance obligations at a point in time. Real estate owned assets that are probable to be sold within one year are reported as held for sale. Real estate owned assets classified as held for sale shall be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Real estate owned assets shall not be depreciated or amortized while it is classified as held for sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale shall continue to be accrued. Upon the disposition of a real estate owned asset, the Company calculates realized gains and losses as net proceeds received less the carrying value of the real estate owned asset. Net proceeds received are net of direct selling costs associated with the disposition of the real estate owned asset. Leases Operating right of use assets “ROU” represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. Leases will be classified as either a finance or operating lease, with such classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the consolidated statements of operations. For leases greater than 12 months, the Company determines, at the inception of the contract, if the arrangement meets the classification criteria for an operating or finance lease. For leases that have extension options, which can be exercised at the Company’s discretion, management uses judgment to determine if it is reasonably certain that such extension options will be elected. If the extension options are reasonably certain to occur, the Company includes the extended term’s lease payments in the calculation of the respective lease liability. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The incremental borrowing rate used to discount the lease liability is determined at commencement of the lease, or upon modification of the lease, as the interest rate a lessee would have to pay to borrow on a fully collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate considers information at both the corporate and property level and analysis of current market conditions for obtaining new financings. All leases as of June 30, 2021 were operating leases. Separately, on October 15, 2019, the Company acquired certain real estate assets which had an existing in-place lease asset. This in-place lease asset is recorded as an Intangible lease asset on the consolidated balance sheets and amortized using the straight-line method over the contractual life of the lease. Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which amends the credit impairment model for financial instruments. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. The allowance for credit losses required under ASU 2016-13 is deducted from the respective loans’ amortized cost basis on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for credit losses attributed to unfunded loan commitments is included in Accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets. The guidance also required a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the reporting period of adoption. The following discussion highlights changes to the Company’s accounting policies as a result of this adoption. Allowance for credit losses The allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments carried at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loans held for investment and unfunded loan commitments represents a lifetime estimate of expected credit losses. Factors considered by the Company when determining the allowance for credit losses reserve include loan-specific characteristics such as loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio, vintage year, loan term, property type, occupancy and geographic location, financial performance of the borrower, expected payments of principal and interest, as well as internal or external information relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist for multiple financial instruments. If similar risk characteristics do not exist, the Company measures the allowance for credit losses on an individual instrument basis. The determination of whether a particular financial instrument should be included in a pool can change over time. If a financial asset’s risk characteristics change, the Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to continue to keep the financial instrument in its existing pool or evaluate it individually. In measuring the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments including our unfunded loan commitments that share similar risk characteristics, the Company primarily applies a probability of default (“PD”)/loss given default (“LGD”) model for instruments that are collectively assessed, whereby the allowance for credit losses is calculated as the product of PD, LGD and exposure at default (“EAD”). The Company’s model principally utilizes historical loss rates derived from a commercial mortgage backed securities database with historical losses from 1998 to 2020 provided by a reputable third party, forecasting the loss parameters using a scenario-based statistical approach over a reasonable and supportable forecast period of twelve months, followed by an immediate reversion to average historical losses. For financial instruments assessed on an individual basis, including when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the full payment of principal and interest on the instrument, the Company applies a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology. For financial instruments where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty based on the Company’s assessment at the reporting date and the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the Company may elect to use as a practical expedient the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date when determining the allowance for credit losses. In developing the allowance for credit losses for its loans held for investment, the Company performs a comprehensive analysis of its loan portfolio and assigns risk ratings to loans that incorporate management’s current judgments about their credit quality based on all known and relevant internal and external factors that may affect collectability, using similar factors as those in developing the allowance for credit losses. This methodology results in loans being segmented by risk classification into risk rating categories that are associated with estimated probabilities of default and principal loss. Risk rating categories range from “1” to “5” with “1” representing the lowest risk of loss and “5” representing the highest risk of loss with the ratings updated quarterly. At the time of origination or purchase, loans held for investment are ranked as a “2” and will move accordingly going forward based on the ratings which are defined as follows: 1. Very Low Risk- 2. Low Risk- 3. Average Risk- 4. High Risk/Delinquent/Potential for Loss- 5. Impaired/Defaulted/Loss Likely- The Company also considers qualitative and environmental factors, including, but not limited to, economic and business conditions, nature and volume of the loan portfolio, lending terms, volume and severity of past due loans, concentration of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations in its determination of the allowance for credit losses. Changes in the allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments are recorded in Provision/(benefit) for credit losses on the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding offset to the financial instrument’s amortized cost recorded on the consolidated balance sheets, or as a component of Accounts payable and accrued expenses for unfunded loan commitments. The Company has elected to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivable as it is timely, following three months time, reversed against interest income when a loan, real estate security or preferred equity investment is placed on nonaccrual status. The Company did not record reversals of accrued interest receivable during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Loans are charged off against the Provision/(benefit) for credit losses when all or a portion of the principal amount is determined to be uncollectible. Past due and nonaccrual status Loans are placed on nonaccrual status and considered non-performing when full payment of principal and interest is unpaid for 90 days or more or where reasonable doubt exists as to timely collection, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Interest received on nonaccrual status loans are accounted for under the cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Upon restructuring the nonaccrual loan, the Company may return a loan to accrual status when repayment of principal and interest is reasonably assured. Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”) The Company classifies an individual financial instrument as a TDR when it has a reasonable expectation that the financial instrument’s contractual terms will be modified in a manner that grants concession to the borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions could include term extensions, payment deferrals, interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, forbearance, or other actions designed to maximize the Company’s collection on the financial instrument. The Company determines the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments that are TDRs individually. Real Estate Securities On the acquisition date, all of the Company’s commercial real estate securities were classified as available for sale and carried at fair value, and subsequently any unrealized gains or losses are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The Company may elect the fair value option for its real estate securities, and as a result, any unrealized gains or losses on such real estate securities will be recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. No such election has been made to date. Related discounts, premiums and acquisition expenses on investments are amortized over the life of the investment using the effective interest method. Amortization is reflected as an adjustment to interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company uses the specific identification method in determining the cost relief for real estate securities sold. Realized gains and losses from the sale of real estate securities are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. AFS real estate securities which have experienced a decline in the fair value below their amortized cost basis (i.e., impairment) are evaluated each reporting period to determine whether the decline in fair value is due to credit-related factors. Any impairment that is not credit-related is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, while credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance on the consolidated balance sheets with a corresponding adjustment on the consolidated statements of operations. If the Company intends to sell an impaired real estate security or more likely than not will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis. The Company analyzes the AFS security portfolio on a periodic basis for credit losses at the individual security level using the same criteria described above for those amortized cost financial assets subject to an allowance for credit losses including but not limited to; performance of the underlying assets in the security, borrower financial resources and investment in collateral, collateral type, credit ratings, project economics and geographic location as well as national and regional economic factors. The non-credit loss component of the unrealized loss within the Company’s AFS portfolio is recognized as an adjustment to the individual security’s asset balance with an offsetting entry to accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheets. Repurchase Agreements Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities sold under repurchase agreements have been treated as collateralized financing transactions because the Company maintains effective control over the transferred securities. Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities financed through a repurchase agreement remain on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as an asset and cash received from the purchaser is recorded as a liability. Interest paid in accordance with repurchase agreements is recorded in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Deferred Financing Costs The deferred financing costs related to the Company’s various Master Repurchase Agreements as well as certain prepaid subscription costs are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing cost on the Company’s collateralized loan obligations (“CLO”) are netted against the Company’s CLO payable in the Collateralized loan obligations on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing costs are amortized over the terms of the respective financing agreement using the effective interest method and included in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Unamortized deferred financing costs are generally expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Share Repurchase Program The Company has a Share Repurchase Program (the “SRP”) that enables stockholders to sell their shares to the Company, subject to certain conditions. Refer to Note 9 - Stock Transactions for a description of the SRP. When a stockholder requests a redemption and the redemption is approved by the board of directors, the Company will reclassify such obligation from equity to a liability based on the settlement value of the obligation. Shares repurchased under the SRP will have the status of authorized but unissued shares. Offering and Related Costs Since 2018, the Company has from time to time offered, and may in the future offer, shares of the Company’s common stock or one or more series of its preferred stock (“Preferred Stock”), including its Series A convertible preferred stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”), Series C convertible preferred stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock,”) and Series D convertible preferred stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock,” and together with the Series A Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock”) in private placements exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In connection with these offerings, the Company incurs various offering costs. These offering costs include but are not limited to legal, accounting, printing, mailing and filing fees, and diligence expenses of broker-dealers. Offering costs for the common stock are recorded in the Company’s stockholders’ equity, while the offering costs for the Preferred Stock are included within Series A Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock, respectively, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Distribution Reinvestment Plan Pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) stockholders may elect to reinvest distributions by purchasing shares of common stock in lieu of receiving cash. No dealer manager fees or selling commissions are paid with respect to shares purchased pursuant to the DRIP. The purchase price for shares purchased through the DRIP is the lesser of (i) the Company’s most recent estimated per share net asset value (“NAV”), and (ii) the Company’s most recently disclosed GAAP book value per share. There is no market for our common stock. The board of directors may designate that certain cash or other distributions be excluded from the DRIP. The Company has the right to amend any aspect of the DRIP or terminate the DRIP with ten days’ notice to participants. Shares issued under the DRIP are recorded to equity in the consolidated balance sheets in the period distributions are declared. Income Taxes The Company has conducted its operations to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2013. As a REIT, if the Company meets certain organizational and operational requirements and distributes at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income” (determined before the deduction of dividends paid and excluding net capital gains) to its stockholders in a year, it will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent of the income that it distributes. However, even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on income in addition to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. The Company, through its TRS, is indirectly subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. The Company’s TRS is not consolidated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but is instead taxed as a C corporation. For financial reporting purposes, the TRS is consolidated and a provision for current and deferred taxes is established for the portion of earnings recognized by the Company with respect to its interest in its TRS. Total income tax provision/(benefit) for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 was $0.3 million and $(0.7) million, respectively. Total income tax provision/(benefit) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 was $2.3 million and $(2.6) million, respectively. The Company uses a more-likely-than-not threshold for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or to be taken in a tax return. The Company has assessed its tax positions for all open tax years beginning with December 31, 2017 and concluded that there were no uncertainties to be recognized. The Company’s accounting policy with respect to interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties is to classify these amounts as provision for income taxes. The Company utilizes the TRS to reduce the impact of the prohibited transaction tax and to avoid penalty for the holding of assets not qualifying as real estate assets for purposes of the REIT asset tests. Any income associated with a TRS is fully taxable because the TRS is subject to federal and state income taxes as a domestic C corporation based upon its net income. Derivatives and Hedging Activities In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effect of interest rate changes and may undertake a strategy to limit these risks through the use of derivatives. The Company uses derivatives primarily to economically hedge against interest rates, CMBS spreads and macro market risk in order to minimize volatility. The Company may use a variety of derivative instruments that are considered conventional, including but not limited to: Treasury note futures and credit derivatives on various indices including CMBX and CDX. The Company recognizes all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The Company does not designate derivatives as hedges to qualify for hedge accounting for financial reporting purposes and therefore any net payments under, or fluctuations in the fair value of these derivatives have been recognized currently in unrealized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company records derivative asset and liability positions on a gross basis with any collateral posted with or received from counterparties recorded separately within Restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Certain derivatives that the Company has entered into are subject to master netting agreements with its counterparties, allowing for netting of the same transaction, in the same currency, on the same date. Per Share Data The Company’s Preferred Stock is considered a participating security and the Company calculates basic earnings per share using the two-class method. The Company’s dilutive earnings per share calculation is computed using the more dilutive result of the treasury stock method, assuming the participating security is a potential common share, or the two-class method, assuming the participating security is not converted. The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing net income applicable to common stock for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for that period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from shares outstanding if potential shares of common stock with a dilutive effect have been issued in connection with the restricted stock plan or upon conversion of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock, except when doing so would be anti-dilutive. Reportable Segments The Company has determined that it has four reportable segments based on how the chief operating decision maker reviews and manages the business. The four reporting segments are as follows: • The real estate debt business which is focused on originating, acquiring and asset managing commercial real estate debt investments, including first mortgage loans, subordinate mortgages, mezzanine loans and participations in such loans. • The real estate securities business which is focused on investing in and asset managing commercial real estate securities primarily consisting of CMBS and may include unsecured REIT debt, CDO notes and other securities. • The commercial conduit business in the Company’s TRS, which is focused on originating and subsequently selling fixed-rate commercial real estate loans into the CMBS securitization market. • The real estate owned business represents real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or purchase. See Note 15 - Segment Reporting for further information regarding the Company’s segments. Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock The Company’s outstanding Preferred Stock is classified outside of permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheets. Subject to certain conditions, the outstanding Preferred Stock is redeemable at the option of the holders of the Preferred Stock, outside of the control of the Company. Series A Preferred Stock The Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), and on parity with all other outstanding classes of preferred stock of the Company (including the Series C and Series D Preferred Stock) with respect to priority in dividends and in the distribution of assets in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company. The liquidation preference of each share of Series A Preferred Stock is the greater of (i) $5,000 plus accrued and unpaid dividends, and (ii) the amount that would be received upon a conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock. Dividends are on the Series A Preferred Stock, which are typically declared and paid quarterly, accrue at a rate equal to the greater of (i) an annual amount equal to 4.0% of the liquidation preference per share (subject to a 1.0% increase in the event of the ratings for the Series A Preferred Stock decreases below a certain threshold) and (ii) the dividends that would have been paid had such share of Series A Preferred Stock been converted into a share of Common Stock on the first day of such quarter, subject to proration in the event the share of Series A Preferred Stock is not outstanding for the full quarter. Dividends are paid in arrears. Dividends will accumulate and be cumulative from the most recent date to which dividends had been paid. Immediately prior to a “Liquidity Event,” each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock shall convert into 299.2 If there has not been a Liquidity Event by June 25, 2024 (six years from the initial issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock), each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to require the Company to redeem its Series A Preferred Stock for cash at the liquidation preference, or such holder may convert all, but not less than all, of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder into Common Stock at the Conversion Rate. In the event of the sale of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company (by sale, merger, consolidation or otherwise) or the acquisition by any person of more than 50% of the total economic interests or voting power of all securities of the Company (a “Company Change of Control”), other than a Liquidity Ev	Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting The Company’s consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-K and Regulation S-X, as appropriate. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current presentation. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented have been included. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results in any subsequent reporting period. Use of Estimates GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. In the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments, of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the entire year or any subsequent periods. In response to the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, numerous countries, including the U.S., have declared national emergencies with respect to COVID-19 and certain jurisdictions, including those where our corporate headquarters and/or properties that secure our investments, or properties that the Company owns, are located, have at times imposed “stay-at-home” guidelines or orders or other restrictions to help prevent its spread. The effects of COVID-19 may negatively and materially impact significant estimates and assumptions used by the Company including, but not limited to estimates of expected credit losses, valuation of our equity method investments and the fair value estimates of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the other partners or members, as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company has determined the OP is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held by the OP. The Company consolidates all entities that it controls through either majority ownership or voting rights. In addition, the Company consolidates all VIEs of which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. VIEs are entities in which equity investors (i) do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and/or (ii) do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The entity that consolidates a VIE is its primary beneficiary and is generally the entity with (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) issued and securitized by wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The Company has determined the CLOs are VIEs of which the Company’s subsidiary is the primary beneficiary. The assets and liabilities of the CLOs are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation. Acquisition Expenses The Company capitalizes certain direct costs relating to loan origination activities. The cost is amortized over the life of the loan and recognized in interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Acquisition expenses paid on future funding amounts are expensed within the acquisition expenses line in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash consists of amounts deposited with high quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company up to an insurance limit. Cash equivalents include short-term, liquid investments in money market funds with original maturities of 90 days or less when purchased. Restricted Cash Restricted cash primarily consists of cash pledged as margin on repurchase agreements and derivative transactions. The duration of this restricted cash generally matches the duration of the related repurchase agreements or derivative transaction. Commercial Mortgage Loans Held for Investment - Held-for-Sale - Held-for-Sale, Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option - Real estate owned Real estate owned (“REO”) assets represent real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or purchase. REO assets are carried at their estimated fair value at acquisition and are presented net of accumulated depreciation and impairment charges. The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired real estate assets based on the fair value of the acquired assets such as land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment. Asset acquisitions in which monetary consideration is given generally includes the transaction costs of the asset acquisition. Acquiring assets in groups requires not only ascertaining the cost of the asset (or net asset) group but also allocating that cost to the individual assets (or individual assets and liabilities) that make up the group. The cost of a group of assets acquired in an asset acquisition shall be allocated to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values and shall not give rise to goodwill. Real estate owned assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings and improvements and up to 15 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Renovations and/or replacements that improve or extend the life of the real estate owned assets are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Real estate owned revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer. The Company is considered to have satisfied all performance obligations at a point in time. Real estate owned assets that are probable to be sold within one year are reported as held-for-sale. Real estate owned assets classified as held-for-sale shall be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Real estate owned assets shall not be depreciated or amortized while it is classified as held-for-sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal group classified as held-for-sale shall continue to be accrued. Upon the disposition of a real estate owned asset, the Company calculates realized gains and losses as net proceeds received less the carrying value of the real estate owned asset. Net proceeds received are net of direct selling costs associated with the disposition of the real estate owned asset. Leases Operating right of use assets “ROU” represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. Leases will be classified as either a finance or operating lease, with such classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the consolidated statements of operations. For leases greater than 12 months, the Company determines, at the inception of the contract, if the arrangement meets the classification criteria for an operating or finance lease. For leases that have extension options, which can be exercised at the Company’s discretion, management uses judgment to determine if it is reasonably certain that such extension options will be elected. If the extension options are reasonably certain to occur, the Company includes the extended term’s lease payments in the calculation of the respective lease liability. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The incremental borrowing rate used to discount the lease liability is determined at commencement of the lease, or upon modification of the lease, as the interest rate a lessee would have to pay to borrow on a fully collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate considers information at both the corporate and property level and analysis of current market conditions for obtaining new financings. All leases as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were operating leases. Separately, on October 15, 2019, the Company acquired certain real estate assets which had an existing in-place lease asset. This in-place lease asset is recorded as an Intangible lease asset on the consolidated balance sheets and amortized using the straight-line method over the contractual life of the lease. Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which amends the credit impairment model for financial instruments. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. Following our adoption of ASU 2016-13, our previous incurred loss model was replaced with a lifetime current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model for financial instruments carried at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loans, loan commitments, held-to-maturity (“HTM”) debt securities, financial guarantees, net investments in leases, reinsurance and trade receivables, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowance for losses. For available for sale (“AFS”) debt securities, unrealized credit losses are recognized as allowances rather than reductions in amortized cost basis and elimination of the other than temporary impairment concept will result in more frequent estimation of credit losses. The accounting model for purchased credit impaired loans and debt securities has been simplified, including elimination of some of the asymmetrical treatment between credit losses and credit recoveries, to be consistent with the CECL model for originated and purchased non-credit impaired assets. The adopted model for ASC 326 as it applies to HTM and AFS securities, encompassing the beneficial interest model for securities that are not of high credit quality, has been clarified to include the effective interest method as a basis for the projection of cash collections method in connection with the newly adopted impairment models for HTM and AFS debt securities under ASC 326 when securities are not of high credit quality. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, the Company recorded an additional allowance for credit losses for our outstanding loans and unfunded loan commitments of $7.8 million, or $ 0.18 0.27% Pre-adoption Transition Adjustment Post-adjustment Assets Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment, net of allowance $ 2,762,042 $ (7,211 ) $ 2,754,831 Liabilities Accounts payable and accrued expenses (1) 10,925 (550 ) 10,375 Equity Accumulated deficit $ (85,968 ) $ (7,761 ) $ (93,729 ) (1) Includes allowance associated with unfunded loan commitment. The following discussion highlights changes to the Company’s accounting policies as a result of this adoption. Allowance for credit losses The allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments carried at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loans held for investment and unfunded loan commitments represents a lifetime estimate of expected credit losses. Factors considered by the Company when determining the allowance for credit losses reserve include loan-specific characteristics such as loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio, vintage year, loan term, property type, occupancy and geographic location, financial performance of the borrower, expected payments of principal and interest, as well as internal or external information relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist for multiple financial instruments. If similar risk characteristics do not exist, the Company measures the allowance for credit losses on an individual instrument basis. The determination of whether a particular financial instrument should be included in a pool can change over time. If a financial asset’s risk characteristics change, the Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to continue to keep the financial instrument in its existing pool or evaluate it individually. In measuring the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments including our unfunded loan commitments that share similar risk characteristics, the Company primarily applies a probability of default (“PD”)/loss given default (“LGD”) model for instruments that are collectively assessed, whereby the allowance for credit losses is calculated as the product of PD, LGD and exposure at default (“EAD”). The Company’s model principally utilizes historical loss rates derived from a commercial mortgage backed securities database with historical losses from 1998 to 2020 provided by a reputable third party, forecasting the loss parameters using a scenario-based statistical approach over a reasonable and supportable forecast period of twelve months, followed by an immediate reversion to average historical losses. For financial instruments assessed on an individual basis, including when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the full payment of principal and interest on the instrument, the Company applies a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology. For financial instruments where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty based on the Company’s assessment at the reporting date and the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the Company may elect to use as a practical expedient the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date when determining the allowance for credit losses. In developing the allowance for credit losses for its loans held for investment, the Company performs a comprehensive analysis of its loan portfolio and assigns risk ratings to loans that incorporate management’s current judgments about their credit quality based on all known and relevant internal and external factors that may affect collectability, using similar factors as those in developing the allowance for credit losses. This methodology results in loans being segmented by risk classification into risk rating categories that are associated with estimated probabilities of default and principal loss. Risk rating categories range from “1” to “5” with “1” representing the lowest risk of loss and “5” representing the highest risk of loss with the ratings updated quarterly. At the time of origination or purchase, loans held for investment are ranked as a “2” and will move accordingly going forward based on the ratings which are defined as follows: 1. Very Low Risk- 2. Low Risk- 3. Average Risk- 4. High Risk/Delinquent/Potential for Loss- 5. Impaired/Defaulted/Loss Likely- The Company also considers qualitative and environmental factors, including, but not limited to, economic and business conditions, nature and volume of the loan portfolio, lending terms, volume and severity of past due loans, concentration of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations in its determination of the allowance for credit losses. Changes in the allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments are recorded in Provision/(benefit) for credit losses on the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding offset to the financial instrument’s amortized cost recorded on the consolidated balance sheets, or as a component of Accounts payable and accrued expenses for unfunded loan commitments. The Company has elected to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivable as it is timely, following three months time, reversed against interest income when a loan, real estate security or preferred equity investment is placed on nonaccrual status. The Company did not record reversals of accrued interest receivable during the year ended December 31, 2020. Loans are charged off against the Provision/(benefit) for credit losses when all or a portion of the principal amount is determined to be uncollectible. Past due and nonaccrual status Loans are placed on nonaccrual status and considered non-performing when full payment of principal and interest is unpaid for 90 days or more or where reasonable doubt exists as to timely collection, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Interest received on nonaccrual status loans are accounted for under the cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Upon restructuring the nonaccrual loan, the Company may return a loan to accrual status when repayment of principal and interest is reasonably assured. Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”) The Company classifies an individual financial instrument as a TDR when it has a reasonable expectation that the financial instrument’s contractual terms will be modified in a manner that grants concession to the borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions could include term extensions, payment deferrals, interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, forbearance, or other actions designed to maximize the Company’s collection on the financial instrument. The Company determines the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments that are TDRs individually. Real Estate Securities On the acquisition date, all of the Company’s commercial real estate securities were classified as available for sale and carried at fair value, and subsequently any unrealized gains or losses are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The Company may elect the fair value option for its real estate securities, and as a result, any unrealized gains or losses on such real estate securities will be recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. No such election has been made to date. Related discounts, premiums and acquisition expenses on investments are amortized over the life of the investment using the effective interest method. Amortization is reflected as an adjustment to interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company uses the specific identification method in determining the cost relief for real estate securities sold. Realized gains and losses from the sale of real estate securities are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. AFS real estate securities which have experienced a decline in the fair value below their amortized cost basis (i.e., impairment) are evaluated each reporting period to determine whether the decline in fair value is due to credit-related factors. Any impairment that is not credit-related is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, while credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance on the consolidated balance sheets with a corresponding adjustment on the consolidated statements of operations. If the Company intends to sell an impaired real estate security or more likely than not will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis. The Company analyzes the AFS security portfolio on a periodic basis for credit losses at the individual security level using the same criteria described above for those amortized cost financial assets subject to an allowance for credit losses including but not limited to; performance of the underlying assets in the security, borrower financial resources and investment in collateral, collateral type, credit ratings, project economics and geographic location as well as national and regional economic factors. The non-credit loss component of the unrealized loss within the Company’s AFS portfolio is recognized as an adjustment to the individual security’s asset balance with an offsetting entry to accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheets. Repurchase Agreements Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities sold under repurchase agreements have been treated as collateralized financing transactions because the Company maintains effective control over the transferred securities. Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities financed through a repurchase agreement remain on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as an asset and cash received from the purchaser is recorded as a liability. Interest paid in accordance with repurchase agreements is recorded in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Deferred Financing Costs The deferred financing costs related to the Company’s various Master Repurchase Agreements as well as certain prepaid subscription costs are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing cost on the Company’s collateralized loan obligations (“CLO”) are netted against the Company’s CLO payable in the Collateralized loan obligations on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing costs are amortized over the terms of the respective financing agreement using the effective interest method and included in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Unamortized deferred financing costs are generally expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Share Repurchase Program The Company has a Share Repurchase Program (the “SRP”) that enables stockholders to sell their shares to the Company, subject to certain conditions. Refer to Note 9 - Stock Transactions for a description of the SRP. When a stockholder requests a redemption and the redemption is approved by the board of directors, the Company will reclassify such obligation from equity to a liability based on the settlement value of the obligation. Shares repurchased under the SRP will have the status of authorized but unissued shares. Offering and Related Costs Since 2018, the Company has from time to time offered, and may in the future offer, shares of the Company’s common stock or one or more series of its preferred stock (“Preferred Stock”), including its Series A convertible preferred stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) and Series C convertible preferred stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock,”) in private placements exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In connection with these offerings, the Company incurs various offering costs. These offering costs include but are not limited to legal, accounting, printing, mailing and filing fees, and diligence expenses of broker-dealers. Offering costs for the common stock are recorded in the Company’s stockholders’ equity, while the offering costs for the Preferred Stock are included within Series A Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, respectively, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Distribution Reinvestment Plan Pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”), stockholders may elect to reinvest distributions by purchasing shares of common stock in lieu of receiving cash. No dealer manager fees or selling commissions are paid with respect to shares purchased pursuant to the DRIP. The purchase price for shares purchased through the DRIP is the lesser of (i) the Company’s most recent estimated per share NAV, and (ii) the Company’s GAAP book value per share. There is no market for our common stock. The board of directors may designate that certain cash or other distributions be excluded from the DRIP. The Company has the right to amend any aspect of the DRIP or terminate the DRIP with ten days’ notice to participants. Shares issued under the DRIP are recorded to equity in the consolidated balance sheets in the period distributions are declared. Share-Based Compensation The Company has a share-based incentive plan for certain of the Company’s directors, officers and employees of the Advisor and its affiliates. Share-based awards are measured at the grant date fair value and is recognized as compensation expense on a on a straight line basis over the related vesting period of the award. See Note 12 - Share-Based Compensation. Income Taxes The Company has conducted its operations to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2013. As a REIT, if the Company meets certain organizational and operational requirements and distributes at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income” (determined before the deduction of dividends paid and excluding net capital gains) to its stockholders in a year, it will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent of the income that it distributes. However, even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on income in addition to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. The Company, through its TRS, is indirectly subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. The Company’s TRS is not consolidated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but is instead taxed as a C corporation. For financial reporting purposes, the TRS is consolidated and a provision for current and deferred taxes is established for the portion of earnings recognized by the Company with respect to its interest in its TRS. Total income tax provision/(benefit) for the years ended December 31, 2020, December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $(2.1) million, $4.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The Company uses a more-likely-than-not threshold for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or to be taken in a tax return. The Company has assessed its tax positions for all open tax years beginning with December 31, 2017 and concluded that there were no uncertainties to be recognized. The Company’s accounting policy with respect to interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties is to classify these amounts as provision for income taxes. The Company utilizes the TRS to reduce the impact of the prohibited transaction tax and to avoid penalty for the holding of assets not qualifying as real estate assets for purposes of the REIT asset tests. Any income associated with a TRS is fully taxable because the TRS is subject to federal and state income taxes as a domestic C corporation based upon its net income. Derivatives and Hedging Activities In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effect of interest rate changes and may undertake a strategy to limit these risks through the use of derivatives. The Company uses derivatives primarily to economically hedge against interest rates, CMBS spreads and macro market risk in order to minimize volatility. The Company may use a variety of derivative instruments that are considered conventional, including but not limited to: Treasury note futures and credit derivatives on various indices including CMBX and CDX. The Company recognizes all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The Company does not designate derivatives as hedges to qualify for hedge accounting for financial reporting purposes and therefore any net payments under, or fluctuations in the fair value of these derivatives have been recognized currently in unrealized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company records derivative asset and liability positions on a gross basis with any collateral posted with or received from counterparties recorded separately within Restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Certain derivatives that the Company has entered into are subject to master netting agreements with its counterparties, allowing for netting of the same transaction, in the same currency, on the same date. Per Share Data The Company’s Preferred Stock is considered a participating security and the Company calculates basic earnings per share using the two-class method. The Company’s dilutive earnings per share calculation is computed using the more dilutive result of the treasury stock method, assuming the participating security is a potential common share, or the two-class method, assuming the participating security is not converted. The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing net income applicable to common stock for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for that period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from shares outstanding if potential shares of common stock with a dilutive effect have been issued in connection with the restricted stock plan or upon conversion of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock, except when doing so would be anti-dilutive. Reportable Segments The Company has determined that it has four reportable segments based on how the chief operating decision maker reviews and manages the business. The four reporting segments are as follows: • The real estate debt business which is focused on originating, acquiring and asset managing commercial real estate debt investments, including first mortgage loans, subordinate mortgages, mezzanine loans and participations in such loans. • The real estate securities business which is focused on investing in and asset managing commercial real estate securities primarily consisting of CMBS and may include unsecured REIT debt, CDO notes and other securities. • The commercial conduit business in the Company’s TRS, which is focused on originating and subsequently selling fixed-rate commercial real estate loans into the CMBS securitization market. • The real estate owned business represents real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or purchase. See Note 16 - Segment Reporting for further information regarding the Company’s segments. Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock The Company’s outstanding Preferred Stock is classified outside of permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheets. Subject to certain conditions, the outstanding Preferred Stock is redeemable at the option of the holders of the Preferred Stock, outside of the control of the Company. As set forth in the Articles Supplementary relating to each of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Articles Supplementary”) to the Company’s Articles of Amendment and Restatement, the Preferred Stock is redeemable for shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) at the option of the holder upon a change of control (as defined in the Articles Supplementary) or after the sixth anniversary of the date of issuance. A change in control of the Company occurs if any person acquires more than 50% of the total economic interests or voting power of all securities of the Company, other than in a liquidity event. Shares of Preferred Stock rank senior to shares of Common Stock with respect to rights to receive dividends and to par

Credit Characteristics As part of the Company’s process for monitoring the credit quality of its commercial mortgage loans, excluding those held for sale, measured at fair value, it performs a quarterly loan portfolio assessment and assigns risk ratings to each of its loans. The loans are scored on a scale of 1 to 5 as follows: Investment Rating Summary Description 1 Investment exceeding fundamental performance expectations and/or capital gain expected. Trends and risk factors since time of investment are favorable. 2 Performing consistent with expectations and a full return of principal and interest expected. Trends and risk factors are neutral to favorable. 3 Performing investments requiring closer monitoring. Trends and risk factors show some deterioration. 4 Underperforming investment with the potential of some interest loss but still expecting a positive return on investment. Trends and risk factors are negative. 5 Underperforming investment with expected loss of interest and some principal. All commercial mortgage loans, excluding loans classified as commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value within the consolidated balance sheets, are assigned an initial risk rating of 2.0. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the weighted average risk rating of the loans was 2.2.

The transfer occurred when the Company took possession of the property by completing a foreclosure transaction in January 2021, resulting in a $0.3 million impairment loss at the time of transfer. Since the foreclosure was entered into due to the borrower experiencing financial difficulty and the recorded investment in the receivable was more than the fair value of the collateral collected, the transaction qualifies as a TDR. The Company accounted for the REO acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as an asset acquisition. The Company subsequently sold this REO asset during the six months ended June 30, 2021 for a $0.8 million gain, presented net of direct selling costs associated with the disposition of the asset, included within Realized gain/loss on sale of real estate owned assets, held for sale in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Credit Characteristics As part of the Company’s process for monitoring the credit quality of its commercial mortgage loans, excluding those held-for-sale, measured at fair value, it performs a quarterly loan portfolio assessment and assigns risk ratings to each of its loans. The loans are scored on a scale of 1 to 5 as follows: Investment Rating Summary Description 1 Investment exceeding fundamental performance expectations and/or capital gain expected. Trends and risk factors since time of investment are favorable. 2 Performing consistent with expectations and a full return of principal and interest expected. Trends and risk factors are neutral to favorable. 3 Performing investments requiring closer monitoring. Trends and risk factors show some deterioration. 4 Underperforming investment with the potential of some interest loss but still expecting a positive return on investment. Trends and risk factors are negative. 5 Underperforming investment with expected loss of interest and some principal.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company reached an agreement with a borrower to take possession of certain real estate collateral. At the time of transfer, the carrying value of the commercial mortgage loan, held for investment was $21.1 million, which was exchanged for possession of the REO asset at a purchase price of $21.4 million. This $21.4 million REO investment was comprised of $18.9 million of real property (land, building and improvements) and $2.5 million of personal property (furniture, fixture, and equipment).

The weighted average contractual maturity for CLO investments included within the CMBS portfolio as of December 31, 2020 was 14 years. The weighted average contractual maturity for single asset single borrower “SASB” investments as of December 31, 2020 was 14 years. The following table shows the amortized cost, allowance for expected credit losses, unrealized gain/(loss) and fair value of the Company’s CMBS investments by investment type as of December 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands): Amortized Cost Credit Loss Allowance UnrealizedGain Unrealized Loss Fair Value December 31, 2020 CLOs $ 123,444 $ — $ — $ (4,888 ) $ 118,556 SASB 55,948 — — (3,368 ) 52,580 Total $ 179,392 $ — $ — $ (8,256 ) $ 171,136 As of December 31, 2020, the Company held 9 CMBS positions with an amortized cost basis of $179.4 million and an unrealized loss of $8.3 million, of which 7 positions had an unrealized loss for a period greater than twelve months. As of June 30, 2021 the Company did not hold any real estate securities, CMBS. The following table provides information on the unrealized losses and fair value on the Company’s real estate securities, CMBS, available for sale that were in an unrealized loss position, and for which an allowance for credit losses has not been recorded, in each case as of December 31, 2020 (amounts in thousands): Fair Value Unrealized Loss Securities with an unrealized loss less than Securities with an unrealized loss greater than 12 months Securities with an unrealized loss less than 12 months Securities with an unrealized loss greater than 12 months December 31, 2020 CLOs $ 63,131 $ 55,425 $ (2,824 ) $ (2,064 ) SASB — 52,580 — (3,368 ) Total $ 63,131 $ 108,005 $ (2,824 ) $ (5,432 ) As of June 30, 2021 the Company did not hold any real estate securities, CMBS. As of December 31, 2020, there were 7 securities with unrealized losses for a period greater than twelve months reflected in the table above. After evaluating the securities, the Company concluded that the unrealized losses reflected above were noncredit-related and would be recovered from the securities’ estimated future cash flows. The Company considered a number of factors in reaching this conclusion, including that the Company did not intend to sell the securities, it was not considered more likely than not that we would be forced to sell the securities prior to recovering our amortized cost, the portfolio is made up of investment grade securities of recent originations and higher tranches, and that there were no material credit events that would have caused us to otherwise conclude that the Company would not recover our cost. The allowance for credit losses is calculated using a discounted cash flow approach and is measured as the difference between the original cash flows expected to be collected to the revised cash flows expected to be collected discounted using the effective interest rate, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Significant judgment is used in projecting cash flows. As a result, actual income and/or credit losses could be materially different from what is currently projected and/or reported. The following table provides information on the amounts of gain/(loss) on the Company’s real estate securities, CMBS, available for sale (dollars in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Unrealized gain/(loss) on available for sale securities $ — $ 34,882 $ 1,665 $ (32,725 ) Reclassification of net (gain)/loss on available for sale securities included in net income/(loss) 214 5,437 6,591 5,437 Unrealized gain/(loss) on available for sale securities, net of reclassification adjustment $ 214 $ 40,319 $ 8,256 $ (27,288 ) The amounts reclassified for net (gain)/loss on available for sale securities are included in the realized (gain)/loss on sale of real estate securities in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s unrealized gain/(loss) on available for sale securities is net of tax. Due to the Company’s designation as a REIT, there was no tax impact on unrealized gain/(loss) on available for sale securities.

After evaluating the securities, the Company concluded that the unrealized losses reflected above were noncredit-related and would be recovered from the securities’ estimated future cash flows. The Company considered a number of factors in reaching this conclusion, including that the Company did not intend to sell the securities, it was not considered more likely than not that we would be forced to sell the securities prior to recovering our amortized cost, the portfolio is made up of investment grade securities of recent originations and higher tranches, and that there were no material credit events that would have caused us to otherwise conclude that the Company would not recover our cost. The allowance for credit losses is calculated using a discounted cash flow approach and is measured as the difference between the original cash flows expected to be collected to the revised cash flows expected to be collected discounted using the effective interest rate, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Significant judgment is used in projecting cash flows. As a result, actual income and/or credit losses could be materially different from what is currently projected and/or reported. The following table provides information on the amounts of gain/(loss) on the Company’s real estate securities, CMBS, available for sale (dollars in thousands): Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Unrealized gain/(loss) available for sale securities $ (8,026 ) $ (978 ) $ (459 ) Reclassification of net (gain)/loss on available for sale securities included in net income (loss) 748 — — Unrealized gain/(loss) available for sale securities, net of reclassification adjustment $ (7,278 ) $ (978 ) $ (459 ) The amounts reclassified for net (gain)/loss on available for sale securities are included in the realized (gain)/loss on sale of real estate securities in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s unrealized gain/(loss) on available for sale securities is net of tax. Due to the Company’s designation as a REIT, there was no tax impact on unrealized gain/(loss) on available for sale securities. The deterioration in fair value of real estate securities for both collateralized loan obligations and other securities as of December 31, 2020 can be attributed mainly to the market down-turn and volatility as a result of high unemployment and credit uncertainties related to the outbreak of COVID-19. Management currently does not have the intention to sell any of the real estate securities as of December 31, 2020.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had 25,567 and 40,515 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding, respectively and 1,400 shares of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding.

The transaction settled on March 18, 2021. The following tables present the activity in the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock for the period ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively (dollars in thousands, except share amounts): Shares Amount Balance, December 31, 2020 40,515 $ 202,292 Exchanged for Series D Preferred Stock (14,950 ) (74,748 ) Dividends paid in Preferred Stock 2 5 Offering costs — (14 ) Amortization of offering costs — 44 Ending Balance, June 30, 2021 25,567 $ 127,579 Shares Amount Balance, December 31, 2019 40,500 $ 202,144 Issuance of Preferred Stock 14 70 Dividends paid in Preferred Stock — — Offering costs — (9 ) Amortization of offering costs — 48 Ending Balance, June 30, 2020 40,514 $ 202,253 Shares Amount Balance, December 31, 2020 1,400 $ 6,962 Issuance of Preferred Stock — — Dividends paid in Preferred Stock — — Offering costs — — Amortization of offering costs — 4 Ending Balance, June 30, 2021 1,400 $ 6,966 Shares Amount Balance, December 31, 2019 1,400 $ 6,966 Issuance of Preferred Stock — — Dividends paid in Preferred Stock — — Offering costs — (9 ) Amortization of offering costs — 3 Ending Balance, June 30, 2020 1,400 $ 6,960 The following table presents the activity in the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock for the period ended June 30, 2021 (dollars in thousands, except share amounts): Shares Amount Balance, December 31, 2020 — $ — Issuance of Preferred Stock 17,950 89,748 Dividends paid in Preferred Stock — — Offering Costs — (83 ) Amortization of offering costs — 5 Ending Balance, June 30, 2021 17,950 $ 89,670 As of June 30, 2020 the Company did not have any Series D Preferred Stock outstanding. Distributions In order to maintain its election to qualify as a REIT, the Company must currently distribute, at a minimum, an amount equal to 90% of its taxable income, without regard to the deduction for distributions paid and excluding net capital gains. The Company must distribute 100% of its taxable income (including net capital gains) to avoid paying corporate U.S. federal income taxes. Distribution payments are dependent on the availability of funds. The Company’s board of directors may reduce the amount of distributions paid or suspend distribution payments at any time, and therefore, distributions payments are not assured. In April 2020, the Company’s board of directors unanimously approved a transition in the timing of the dividend payments to holders of the Company’s common stock from a monthly payment with daily accruals to a quarterly payment and accrual basis. The first quarterly dividend was the second quarter 2020 dividend payable in July 2020. Similarly, the Company began paying accrued and unpaid dividends on Preferred Stock on a quarterly basis. The monthly distributions for the first quarter of 2020 were paid at a daily rate equivalent to $1.44 per annum, per share of common stock. Starting with the second quarter 2020 distribution, the 2020 quarterly distributions were paid at a quarterly rate of $0.275 per share of common stock (equivalent to $1.10 per annum). Distribution payments are dependent on the availability of funds. The board of directors may reduce the amount of distributions paid or suspend distribution payments at any time, and therefore, distribution payments are not assured. Dividends on the Company’s Preferred Stock, to the extent not declared by the board of directors quarterly, will accrue, and dividends may not be paid on the Company’s common stock to the extent there are accrued and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock. The amount of dividends paid on the Company’s Preferred Stock are generally in an amount equal to the dividends a holder of Preferred Stock would have received if the Preferred Stock had been converted into common stock in accordance with its terms, except when the amount of common stock dividends are below the threshold stated in the terms of such Preferred Stock. The Company distributed $24.4 million of common stock dividends during the six months ended June 30, 2021, comprised of $19.3 million in cash and $5.1 million in shares of common stock issued under the DRIP. On June 28, 2021, the Company temporarily suspended the DRIP and as a result, DRIP participants, along with all other holders of the Company’s equity securities, received their second quarter 2021 Company dividends (paid in July) in cash. The DRIP was also temporarily suspended for the March 2020 dividend due to COVID-19 related valuation volatility, but was reactivated for the second quarter 2020 dividend. The Company distributed $21.2 million of common stock dividends during the six months ended June 30, 2020, comprised of $17.7 million in cash and $3.5 million in shares of common stock issued under the DRIP. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had declared but unpaid common stock distributions of $12.2 million and $12.2 million, respectively. Additionally, as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had declared but unpaid Series A Preferred Stock distributions of $2.1 million and $3.3 million, respectively and $0.1 million and $0.1 million of Series C Preferred stock, respectively. Additionally, as of June 30, 2021 the Company had declared but unpaid common stock distributions of $1.7 million of Series D Preferred Stock. These amounts are included in Distributions payable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Share Repurchase Program The Company’s board of directors unanimously approved an amended and restated share repurchase program (the “SRP”), which became effective on February 28, 2016. The SRP enables stockholders to sell their shares to the Company. Subject to certain conditions, stockholders that purchased shares of the Company’s common stock or received their shares from us (directly or indirectly) through one or more non-cash transactions and have held their shares for a period of at least one year may request that the Company repurchase their shares of common stock so long as the repurchase otherwise complies with the provisions of Maryland law. Repurchase requests made following the death or qualifying disability of a stockholder will not be subject to any minimum holding period. The repurchase price per share for SRP repurchases is equal to the lesser of (i) the Company’s most recent estimated per-share NAV, as approved by the Company’s board of directors from time to time, and (ii) the Company’s book value per share, computed in accordance with GAAP, multiplied by a percentage equal to (i) 92.5%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than one year and less than two years; (ii) 95%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than two years and less than three years; (iii) 97.5%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than three years and less than four years; or (iv) 100%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than four years or in the case of requests for death or disability. The Company’s estimated per-share NAV as of June 30, 2021, as determined by the board of directors, is $ 17.88 18.77 Repurchase requests related to death or a qualifying disability must satisfy certain conditions, each of which are assessed by and at the sole discretion of the Company, including the following conditions. In the case of death, the shareholder must be a natural person (or a revocable grantor trust) and the Company must receive a written notice from the estate of the shareholder, the recipient of the shares through bequest or inheritance, or the trustee in the case of a revocable grantor trust. In the case of a “qualifying disability”, the shareholder must be a natural person (or a revocable grantor trust) and the Company must receive a written notice from the shareholder, or the trustee in the case of a revocable grantor trust, that the condition was not pre-existing on the date the shares were acquired. In order for a disability to be considered a “qualifying disability”, the shareholder must receive and provide evidence (the shareholder application and the notice of final determination) of disability based upon a physical or mental condition or impairment made by a government agency responsible for reviewing and determining disability retirement benefits (e.g. the Social Security Administration). Repurchases pursuant to the SRP, when requested, generally will be made semiannually (each six-month period ending June 30 or December 31, a “fiscal semester”). Repurchases for any fiscal semester will be limited to a maximum of 2.5% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the previous fiscal year, with a maximum for any fiscal year of 5.0% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the previous fiscal year. Funding for repurchases pursuant to the SRP for any given fiscal semester will be limited to proceeds received during that same fiscal semester through the issuance of common stock pursuant to any DRIP in effect from time to time, provided that the Company’s board of directors has the power, in its sole discretion, to determine the amount of shares repurchased during any fiscal semester as well as the amount of funds to be used for that purpose. Any repurchase requests received during such fiscal semester will be paid at the price, computed as described above on the last day of such fiscal semester. Due to these limitations, the Company cannot guarantee that the Company will be able to accommodate all repurchase requests made during any fiscal semester or fiscal year. However, a stockholder may withdraw its request at any time or ask that the Company honors the request when funds are available. Pending repurchase requests will be honored on a pro rata basis. The Company will generally pay repurchase proceeds, less any applicable tax or other withholding required by law, by the 31st day following the end of the fiscal semester during which the repurchase request was made. The following table reflects the number of shares repurchased under the SRP cumulatively through June 30, 2021: Number of Requests Number of Shares Repurchased Average Price per Share Cumulative as of December 31, 2020 8,094 4,121,734 $ 19.88 January 1 - January 31, 2021 (1) 1,355 525,580 17.53 February 1 - February 28, 2021 — — N/A March 1 - March 31, 2021 (1) — — N/A April 1 - April 30, 2021 — — N/A May 1 - May 31, 2021 (1) — — N/A June 1 - June 30, 2021 — — N/A Cumulative as of June 30, 2021 9,449 4,647,314 $ 19.61 (1) Reflects shares repurchased pursuant to repurchase requests submitted for the second semester of 2020, including 15,772 and 3,784 shares which for administrative reasons were processed in March 2021 and May 2021, respectively. Pursuant to the terms of the SRP, the Company is only authorized to repurchase up to the amount of proceeds reinvested through our DRIP during the applicable semester. As a result, redemption requests in the amount of 1,881,556 shares were not fulfilled for the second semester of 2020.

As of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had declared but unpaid common stock distributions of $12.2 million and $5.4 million, respectively. Additionally, as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had declared but unpaid distributions of $3.3 million and $1.5 million for Series A Preferred Stock, respectively and $0.1 million and $0.1 million for Series C Preferred Stock, respectively. These amounts are included in Distributions payable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Share Repurchase Program The Company’s board of directors unanimously approved an amended and restated share repurchase program (the “SRP”), which became effective on February 28, 2016. The SRP enables stockholders to sell their shares to the Company. Subject to certain conditions, stockholders that purchased shares of the Company’s common stock or received their shares from us (directly or indirectly) through one or more non-cash transactions and have held their shares for a period of at least one year may request that the Company repurchase their shares of common stock so long as the repurchase otherwise complies with the provisions of Maryland law. Repurchase requests made following the death or qualifying disability of a stockholder will not be subject to any minimum holding period. The repurchase price per share for SRP repurchases is equal to the lesser of (i) the Company’s most recent estimated per-share net asset value (“NAV”), as approved by the Company’s board of directors from time to time, and (ii) the Company’s book value per share, computed in accordance with GAAP, multiplied by a percentage equal to (i) 92.5%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than one year and less than two years; (ii) 95%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than two years and less than three years; (iii) 97.5%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than three years and less than four years; or (iv) 100%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than four years or in the case of requests for death or disability. The Company’s estimated per-share NAV as of December 31, 2020, as determined by the board of directors, is $ 17.88 17.94 Repurchase requests related to death or a qualifying disability must satisfy certain conditions, each of which are assessed by and at the sole discretion of the Company, including the following conditions. In the case of death, the shareholder must be a natural person (or a revocable grantor trust) and the Company must receive a written notice from the estate of the shareholder, the recipient of the shares through bequest or inheritance, or the trustee in the case of a revocable grantor trust. In the case of a “qualifying disability”, the shareholder must be a natural person (or a revocable grantor trust) and the Company must receive a written notice from the shareholder, or the trustee in the case of a revocable grantor trust, that the condition was not pre-existing on the date the shares were acquired. In order for a disability to be considered a “qualifying disability”, the shareholder must receive and provide evidence (the shareholder application and the notice of final determination) of disability based upon a physical or mental condition or impairment made by a government agency responsible for reviewing and determining disability retirement benefits (e.g. the Social Security Administration). Repurchases pursuant to the SRP, when requested, generally will be made semiannually (each six-month period ending June 30 or December 31, a “fiscal semester”). Repurchases for any fiscal semester will be limited to a maximum of 2.5% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the previous fiscal year, with a maximum for any fiscal year of 5.0% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the previous fiscal year. Funding for repurchases pursuant to the SRP for any given fiscal semester will be limited to proceeds received during that same fiscal semester through the issuance of common stock pursuant to any DRIP in effect from time to time, provided that the Company’s board of directors has the power, in its sole discretion, to determine the amount of shares repurchased during any fiscal semester as well as the amount of funds to be used for that purpose. Any repurchase requests received during such fiscal semester will be paid at the price, computed as described above on the last day of such fiscal semester. Due to these limitations, the Company cannot guarantee that the Company will be able to accommodate all repurchase requests made during any fiscal semester or fiscal year. However, a stockholder may withdraw its request at any time or ask that the Company honors the request when funds are available. Pending repurchase requests will be honored on a pro rata basis. The Company will generally pay repurchase proceeds, less any applicable tax or other withholding required by law, by the 31st day following the end of the fiscal semester during which the repurchase request was made. The following table reflects the number of shares repurchased under the SRP cumulatively through December 31, 2020: Number of Requests Number of Shares Repurchased Average Price per Share Cumulative as of December 31, 2019 5,878 3,542,267 $ 20.23 January 1 - January 31, 2020 (1) 1,170 373,135 18.56 February 1 - February 28, 2020 — — N/A March 1 - March 31, 2020 — — N/A April 1 - April 30, 2020 (1) — — N/A May 1 - May 31, 2020 — — N/A June 1 - June 30, 2020 — — N/A July 1 - July 31, 2020 (2) 1,046 206,332 16.25 August 1 - August 31, 2020 — — N/A September 1 - September 30, 2020 (2) — — N/A October 1 - October 31, 2020 — — N/A November 1 - November 30, 2020 — — N/A December 1 - December 31, 2020 — — N/A Cumulative as of December 31, 2020 8,094 4,121,734 $ 19.88 (1) Reflects shares repurchased pursuant to repurchase requests submitted for the second semester of 2019, including 11,306 shares which for administrative reasons were processed in April 2020.

Fair Value of Financial Instrum

Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Q2)	6 Months Ended	12 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2021	Dec. 31, 2020
Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	Note 12 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair values. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The three levels of the hierarchy are described below: • Level I - Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. • Level II - Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life. • Level III - Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques. The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the above hierarchy requires significant judgment and factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. The Company has implemented valuation control processes to validate the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value including those derived from pricing models. These control processes are designed to assure that the values used for financial reporting are based on observable inputs wherever possible. In the event that observable inputs are not available, the control processes are designed to assure that the valuation approach utilized is appropriate and consistently applied and the assumptions are reasonable. Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis CMBS, recorded in real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are valued utilizing both observable and unobservable market inputs. These factors include projected future cash flows, ratings, subordination levels, vintage, remaining lives, credit issues, and recent trades of similar real estate securities. Depending upon the significance of the fair value inputs used in determining these fair values, these real estate securities are classified in either Level II or Level III of the fair value hierarchy. The Company obtains third party pricing for determining the fair value of each CMBS investments, resulting in a Level II classification. Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value in the Company’s TRS are initially recorded at transaction proceeds, which are considered to be the best initial estimate of fair value. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value that are originated in the last month of the reporting period are held and marked to the transaction proceeds. The Company classified the commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value as Level III. Other real estate investments, measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are valued using unobservable inputs. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments, including preferred equity investments, held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. The Company classified the other real estate investments, measured at fair value as Level III. The fair value for Treasury note futures is derived using market prices. Treasury note futures trade on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”). The instruments are a variety of recently issued 10-year U.S. Treasury notes. The future contracts are liquid and are centrally cleared through the CME. Treasury note futures are generally categorized in Level I of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value for credit default swaps and interest rate swaps contracts are derived using pricing models that are widely accepted by marketplace participants. Credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are traded in the OTC market. The pricing models take into account multiple inputs including specific contract terms, interest rate yield curves, interest rates, credit curves, recovery rates, and/or current credit spreads obtained from swap counterparties and other market participants. Most inputs into the models are not subjective as they are observable in the marketplace or set per the contract. Valuation is primarily determined by the difference between the contract spread and the current market spread. The contract spread (or rate) is generally fixed and the market spread is determined by the credit risk of the underlying debt or reference entity. If the underlying indices are liquid and the OTC market for the current spread is active, credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy. If the underlying indices are illiquid and the OTC market for the current spread is not active, credit default swaps are categorized in Level III of the fair value hierarchy. The credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are generally categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy. A review of the fair value hierarchy classification is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets or liabilities. The Company’s policy with respect to transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy is to recognize transfers into and out of each level as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no material transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy for the period ended June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The following table presents the Company’s financial instruments carried at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated balance sheets by its level in the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands): Total Level I Level II Level III June 30, 2021 Assets, at fair value Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value $ 77,031 $ — $ — $ 77,031 Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,547 — — 2,547 Interest rate swaps 5 — — — Total assets, at fair value $ 79,583 $ — $ 5 $ 79,578 Liabilities, at fair value Credit default swaps $ 964 $ — $ 964 $ — Interest rate swaps 1,286 — 1,286 — Treasury note futures 35 35 — Total liabilities, at fair value $ 2,285 $ 35 $ 2,250 $ — December 31, 2020 Assets, at fair value Real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair value $ 171,136 $ — $ 171,136 $ — Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value 67,649 — — 67,649 Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,522 — — 2,522 Interest rate swaps 25 — 25 — Total assets, at fair value $ 241,332 $ — $ 171,161 $ 70,171 Liabilities, at fair value Credit default swaps $ 297 $ — $ 297 $ — Treasury note futures 106 106 — — Total liabilities, at fair value $ 403 $ 106 $ 297 $ — Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions that the Company has classified within the Level III category. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for assets and liabilities within the Level III category may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs. The following table summarizes the valuation method and significant unobservable inputs used for the Company’s financial instruments that are categorized within Level III of the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands): Asset Category Fair Value Valuation Methodologies Unobservable Inputs (1) Weighted Average (2) Range June 30, 2021 Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value $ 77,031 Discounted Cash Flow Yield 4.0% 3.2% - 17.6% Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,547 Discounted Cash Flow Yield 12.8% 11.7% - 13.7% December 31, 2020 Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value $ 67,649 Discounted Cash Flow Yield 16.6% 15.6% - 17.6% Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,522 Discounted Cash Flow Yield 13.2% 12.2% - 14.2% (1) In determining certain inputs, the Company evaluates a variety of factors including economic conditions, industry and market developments, market valuations of comparable companies and company specific developments including exit strategies and realization opportunities. The Company has determined that market participants would take these inputs into account when valuing the investments. (2) Inputs were weighted based on the fair value of the investments included in the range. Increases or decreases in any of the above unobservable inputs in isolation would result in a lower or higher fair value measurement for such assets. The following table presents additional information about the Company’s financial instruments which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 for which the Company has used Level III inputs to determine fair value (dollars in thousands): June 30, 2021 Commercial Mortgage Loans, held for sale, measured at fair value Other Real Estate Investments, measured at fair value Beginning balance, January 1, 2021 $ 67,649 $ 2,522 Transfers into Level III (2) — — Total realized and unrealized gain/(loss) included in earnings: Realized gain/(loss) on sale of commercial mortgage loan, held for sale 13,150 — Unrealized gain/(loss) on commercial mortgage loans, held for sale and other real estate investments 1,104 26 Net accretion — (1) ) Purchases 252,145 — Sales / paydowns (257,017) ) — Transfers out of Level III (2) — — Ending Balance, June 30, 2021 $ 77,031 $ 2,547 December 31, 2020 Commercial Mortgage Loans, held for sale, measured at fair value Other Real Estate Investments, measured at fair value Beginning balance, January 1, 2020 $ 112,562 $ 2,557 Transfers into Level III (2) 23,625 — Total realized and unrealized gain/(loss) included in earnings: Realized gain/(loss) on sale of commercial mortgage loan, held for sale 15,931 — Unrealized gain/(loss) on commercial mortgage loans, held for sale and other real estate investments (75) ) (32) ) Net accretion — (3) ) Purchases (1) 267,552 — Sales / paydowns (1) (328,321) ) — Transfers out of Level III (2) (23,625) ) — Ending Balance, December 31, 2020 $ 67,649 $ 2,522 (1) Excluded from Purchases and Sales/paydowns are $679.1 million and $682.0 million, respectively, of loans that collateralize a CMBS investment required to be consolidated in connection with the Company’s retention of the B tranche during the year ended December 31, 2020. Upon disposition of the B tranche during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recognized a gain of $2.8 million that is recorded in Realized gain/loss on sale of real estate securities on the consolidated statements of operations. (2) Transfers in and transfers out include transfers between Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale and Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are measured using observable quoted market prices, or Level I inputs and their carrying value approximates their fair value. The fair value of borrowings under repurchase agreements approximate their carrying value on the consolidated balance sheets due to their short-term nature, and are measured using Level II inputs. Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value The fair values of the Company’s commercial mortgage loans, held for investment and collateralized loan obligations, which are not reported at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are reported below as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands): Level Carrying Amount (1) Fair Value June 30, 2021 Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment (1) Asset III $ 3,126,303 $ 3,150,424 Collateralized loan obligations Liability III 1,960,090 1,981,299 Mortgage note payable Liability III 29,167 29,167 Other financing and loan participation - commercial mortgage loans Liability III 37,105 37,105 December 31, 2020 Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment (1) Asset III $ 2,714,734 $ 2,724,039 Collateralized loan obligation Liability III 1,625,498 1,606,478 Mortgage note payable Liability III 29,167 29,167 Other financing and loan participation - commercial mortgage loans Liability III 31,379 31,379 (1) The carrying value is gross of $17.2 million and $20.9 million of allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The fair value of the commercial mortgage loans, held for investment is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on the Advisor’s experience with similar types of investments. The Company estimates the fair value of the collateralized loan obligations using external broker quotes. The fair value of the other financing and loan participation-commercial mortgage loans is generally estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis. At June 30, 2021, the Mortgage note payable was initially recorded at transaction proceeds, which are considered to be the best initial estimate of fair value.	Note 13 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair values. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The three levels of the hierarchy are described below: • Level I - Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. • Level II - Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life. • Level III - Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques. The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the above hierarchy requires significant judgment and factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. The Company has implemented valuation control processes to validate the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value including those derived from pricing models. These control processes are designed to assure that the values used for financial reporting are based on observable inputs wherever possible. In the event that observable inputs are not available, the control processes are designed to assure that the valuation approach utilized is appropriate and consistently applied and the assumptions are reasonable. Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis CMBS recorded in real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are valued utilizing both observable and unobservable market inputs. These factors include projected future cash flows, ratings, subordination levels, vintage, remaining lives, credit issues, and recent trades of similar real estate securities. Depending upon the significance of the fair value inputs used in determining these fair values, these real estate securities are classified in either Level II or Level III of the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company obtained third party pricing for determining the fair value of each CMBS investment, resulting in a Level II classification. Commercial mortgage loans held-for-sale, measured at fair value in the Company’s TRS are initially recorded at transaction proceeds, which are considered to be the best initial estimate of fair value. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. Commercial mortgage loans held-for-sale, measured at fair value that are originated in the last month of the reporting period are held and marked to the transaction proceeds. The Company classified the commercial mortgage loans held-for-sale, measured at fair value as Level III. Other real estate investments, measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are valued using unobservable inputs. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments, including preferred equity investments, held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. The Company classified the other real estate investments, measured at fair value as Level III. The fair value for Treasury note futures is derived using market prices. Treasury note futures trade on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”). The instruments are a variety of recently issued 10-year U.S. Treasury notes. The future contracts are liquid and are centrally cleared through the CME. Treasury note futures are generally categorized in Level I of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value for credit default swaps and interest rate swaps contracts are derived using pricing models that are widely accepted by marketplace participants. Credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are traded in the OTC market. The pricing models take into account multiple inputs including specific contract terms, interest rate yield curves, interest rates, credit curves, recovery rates, and/or current credit spreads obtained from swap counterparties and other market participants. Most inputs into the models are not subjective as they are observable in the marketplace or set per the contract. Valuation is primarily determined by the difference between the contract spread and the current market spread. The contract spread (or rate) is generally fixed and the market spread is determined by the credit risk of the underlying debt or reference entity. If the underlying indices are liquid and the OTC market for the current spread is active, credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy. If the underlying indices are illiquid and the OTC market for the current spread is not active, credit default swaps are categorized in Level III of the fair value hierarchy. The credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are generally categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy. A review of the fair value hierarchy classification is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets or liabilities. The Company’s policy with respect to transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy is to recognize transfers into and out of each level as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no material transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy during the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The following table presents the Company’s financial instruments carried at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated balance sheets by its level in the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands): December 31, 2020 Total Level I Level II Level III Assets, at fair value Real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair value $ 171,136 $ — $ 171,136 $ — Commercial mortgage loans, held-for-sale, measured at fair value — Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,522 — — 2,522 Interest rate swaps 25 — 25 — Total assets, at fair value $ 241,332 $ — $ 171,161 $ 70,171 Liabilities, at fair value Credit default swaps $ 297 $ — $ 297 $ — Treasury note futures 106 106 — — Total liabilities, at fair value $ 403 $ 106 $ 297 $ — December 31, 2019 Assets, at fair value Real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair value $ 386,316 $ — $ 386,316 $ — Commercial mortgage loans, held-for-sale, measured at fair value 112,562 — — 112,562 Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,557 — — 2,557 Credit default swaps 59 — 59 — Interest rate swaps 325 — 325 — Treasury note futures 735 735 — — Total assets, at fair value $ 502,554 $ 735 $ 386,700 $ 115,119 Liabilities, at fair value Credit default swaps $ 1,581 $ — $ 1,581 $ — Total liabilities, at fair value $ 1,581 $ — $ 1,581 $ — Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions that the Company has classified within the Level III category. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for assets and liabilities within the Level III category may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs. The following table summarizes the valuation method and significant unobservable inputs used for the Company’s financial instruments that are categorized within Level III of the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands). Asset Category Fair Value Valuation Methodologies Unobservable (1) Weighted Average (2) Range December 31, 2020 Commercial mortgage loans, held-for-sale, measured at fair value $ 67,649 Discounted Cash Flow Yield 16.6 % 15.6% - 17.6 % Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,522 Discounted Cash Flow Yield 13.2 % 12.2% - 14.2 % December 31, 2019 Commercial mortgage loans, held-for-sale, measured at fair value $ 112,562 Discounted Cash Flow Yield 4.9 % 4.7% - 5.2 % Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,557 Broker Quotes Yield 12.4 % 11.4% - 13.4 % (1) In determining certain inputs, the Company evaluates a variety of factors including economic conditions, industry and market developments, market valuations of comparable companies and company specific developments including exit strategies and realization opportunities. The Company has determined that market participants would take these inputs into account when valuing the investments. (2) Inputs were weighted based on the fair value of the investments included in the range. Increases or decreases in any of the above unobservable inputs in isolation would result in a lower or higher fair value measurement for such assets. The following table presents additional information about the Company’s financial instruments which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 for which the Company has used Level III inputs to determine fair value (dollars in thousands): December 31, 2020 Commercial mortgage loans, held- for-sale, measured at fair value Other real estate investments, measured at fair value Beginning balance, January 1, 2020 $ 112,562 $ 2,557 Transfers into Level III (2) 23,625 — Total realized and unrealized gain/(loss) included in earnings: Realized gain/(loss) on sale of commercial mortgage loan, held-for-sale 15,931 — Unrealized gain/(loss) on commercial mortgage loans, held-for-sale and other real estate investments (75 ) (32 ) Net accretion — (3 ) Purchases (1) 267,552 — Sales / paydowns (1) (328,321 ) — Transfers out of Level III (2) (23,625 ) — Ending Balance, December 31, 2020 $ 67,649 $ 2,522 December 31, 2019 Commercial mortgage loans, held- for-sale, measured at fair value Other real estate investments, measured at fair value Beginning balance, January 1, 2019 $ 76,863 $ — Transfers into Level III (2) — — Total realized and unrealized gain (loss) included in earnings: Realized gain (loss) on sale of real estate securities — — Realized gain (loss) on sale of commercial mortgage loan held-for-sale 37,832 — Unrealized gain (loss) on commercial mortgage loans held-for-sale and other real estate investments 312 47 Net accretion — — Unrealized gain (loss) included in OCI — — Purchases 1,015,677 2,510 Sales / paydowns (1,008,050 ) — Cash repayments / receipts — — Transfers out of Level III (2) (10,072 ) — Ending Balance, December 31, 2019 $ 112,562 $ 2,557 (1) Excluded from Purchases and Sales/paydowns are $679.1 million and $682.0 million, respectively, of loans that collateralize a CMBS investment required to be consolidated in connection with the Company’s retention of the B tranche during the year ended December 31, 2020. Upon disposition of the B tranche during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recognized a gain of $2.8 million that is recorded in Realized gain/loss on sale of real estate securities on the consolidated statements of operations. (2) Transfers in and transfers out include transfers between Commercial mortgage loans, held-for-sale and Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are measured using observable quoted market prices, or Level I inputs and their carrying value approximates their fair value. The fair value of borrowings under repurchase agreements approximate their carrying value on the consolidated balance sheets due to their short-term nature, and are measured using Level II inputs. Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value The fair values of the Company’s commercial mortgage loans, held for investment and collateralized loan obligations, which are not reported at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are reported below as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 (dollars in thousands): Level Carrying Amount Fair Value December 31, 2020 Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment (1) Asset III $ 2,714,734 $ 2,724,039 Collateralized loan obligation Liability III 1,625,498 1,606,478 Mortgage note payable Liability III 29,167 29,167 Other financing and loan participation - commercial mortgage loans Liability III 31,379 31,379 December 31, 2019 Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment (1) Asset III $ 2,762,963 $ 2,784,650 Collateralized loan obligation Liability III 1,803,185 1,822,386 Mortgage note payable Liability III 29,167 29,167 (1) The carrying value is gross of $20.9 million and $0.9 million of allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Note 16 - Subsequent Events The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Pending Merger with Capstead Mortgage Corporation As disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 26, 2021, the Company, Rodeo Sub I, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Capstead Mortgage Corporation (“Capstead”) and the Advisor entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) on July 25, 2021. Under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Capstead will merge with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub remaining as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (such transaction, the “Merger”). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding share of common stock of Capstead will be converted into the right to receive: • from the Company, (A) a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the quotient (rounded to the nearest one ten-thousandth) determined by dividing (i) Capstead’s adjusted book value per share by (ii) the Company’s adjusted book value per share (the “Per Share Stock Consideration”), and (B) a cash amount equal to the product of (rounding to the nearest cent) (x) Capstead’s adjusted book value per share multiplied by 15.75%, multiplied by (y) 22.5%, without any interest thereon (the “Per Share Cash Consideration” and together with the Per Share Stock Consideration, the “Per Common Share BSPRT Consideration”); and • from the Advisor, a cash amount equal to the product of (rounding to the nearest cent) (A) Capstead’s adjusted book value per share multiplied by 15.75%, multiplied by (B) 77.5%, without any interest thereon (the “Advisor Cash Consideration” and together with the Per Common Share BSPRT Consideration, the “Total Per Common Share Consideration”). Capstead’s outstanding equity awards under its equity compensation plans will also be converted into the right to receive the Total Per Common Share Consideration. In addition, each outstanding share of Capstead’s 7.50% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, $0.10 par value per share, will be converted into the right to receive one newly-issued 7.50% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (the “BSPRT Series E Preferred Stock”) (the “Preferred Merger Consideration” and, together with the Per Common Share BSPRT Consideration, the “Total BSPRT Merger Consideration”). Cash will be paid in lieu of any fractional shares of the Company’s common stock that would otherwise have been received as a result of the Merger. Adjusted book value per share equals the respective company’s total consolidated common stockholders’ equity, less, in the case of the Company, the aggregate Per Share Cash Consideration, divided by each respective company’s common stock issued and outstanding (excluding, in the case of Capstead, any cancelled shares), plus, in the case of Capstead, any shares of its common stock issuable upon the conversion of outstanding performance units, after giving pro forma effect to any additional dividends or other distributions on shares of the respective company’s common stock that are declared or are anticipated to be declared for which the record date is or will be prior to the Effective Time. Under the Merger Agreement, each of Capstead and the Company will pay a special dividend to their respective stockholders in cash on the last business day prior to the closing of the Merger, with a record date that is three business days before the payment date. The obligation of each party to consummate the Merger is subject to a number of conditions, including, among others, the approval of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement by Capstead’s stockholders and the registration and listing on the New York Stock Exchange of the shares of the Company’s common stock and BSPRT Series E Preferred Stock that will be issued in connection with the Merger. Each of the parties to the Merger Agreement has made certain customary representations, warranties and covenants, among other things the Merger Agreement provides that each of Capstead and the Company will, until the Effective Time, operate their respective businesses in all material respects in the ordinary course and consistent with practice, and preserve substantially intact its current business organization and preserve key business relationships. Each of Capstead and the Company are subject to restrictions as specified in the Merger Agreement on certain actions each company may take prior to the Effective Time, including, among other things, actions related to amending organizational documents, declaring dividends, issuing or repurchasing capital stock, engaging in certain business transactions and incurring indebtedness. Recapitalization In addition, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company has agreed to take necessary corporate actions such that, prior to the consummation of the Merger, the Company will effect a one-for-ten reverse stock split of its common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, each outstanding share of the Company’s Common Stock as of a date to be specified will automatically combine into 1\10 Following the Reverse Stock Split, as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Company has also agreed to effect a stock dividend on the Class A Common Stock (the “Stock Dividend”, and together with the Reverse Stock Split, the “Recapitalization”) wherein the Company will distribute nine shares of a newly designated series of Class B common stock of the Company (“Class B Common Stock”) to each holder of Class A Common Stock as of the record date to be specified by the Company’s board of directors. The Class B Common Stock will be identical to the Class A Common Stock except that the Class B Common Stock will convert, on a one-for-one basis, into shares of Class A Common Stock 180 days following the listing of the Class A Common Stock on the NYSE. The Class B Common Stock will not be listed on the NYSE, and therefore holders of Class B Common Stock will not be able to sell their shares of Class B Common Stock on the NYSE until the automatic conversion of such Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock 180 days after the listing of the Class A Common Stock. The Recapitalization will result in each stockholder of the Company’s common stock as of a date to be specified prior to the closing of the Merger having the same economic value of equity securities in the Company as such holder did prior to the Recapitalization, except that each such holder will have 10% of their holdings in Class A Common Stock and 90% of their holdings in Class B Common Stock.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X, as appropriate. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements may not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual consolidated financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of, and for the year ended December 31, 2020, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 11, 2021. Use of Estimates GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. In the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments, of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the entire year or any subsequent interim periods. In response to the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, numerous countries, including the U.S., have declared national emergencies with respect to COVID-19 and certain jurisdictions, including those where our corporate headquarters and/or properties that secure our investments, or properties that the Company owns, are located, have at times imposed “stay-at-home” guidelines or orders or other restrictions to help prevent its spread. The effects of COVID-19 may negatively and materially impact significant estimates and assumptions used by the Company including, but not limited to estimates of expected credit losses, valuation of our equity investments and the fair value estimates of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the other partners or members, as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company has determined the OP is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held by the OP. The Company consolidates all entities that it controls through either majority ownership or voting rights. In addition, the Company consolidates all VIEs of which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. VIEs are entities in which equity investors (i) do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and/or (ii) do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The entity that consolidates a VIE is its primary beneficiary and is generally the entity with (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) issued and securitized by wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The Company has determined the CLOs are VIEs of which the Company’s subsidiary is the primary beneficiary. The assets and liabilities of the CLOs are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation. Acquisition Expenses The Company capitalizes certain direct costs relating to loan origination activities. The cost is amortized over the life of the loan and recognized in interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Acquisition expenses paid on future funding amounts are expensed within the acquisition expenses line in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash consists of amounts deposited with high quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company up to an insurance limit. Cash equivalents include short-term, liquid investments in money market funds with original maturities of 90 days or less when purchased. Restricted Cash Restricted cash primarily consists of cash pledged as margin on repurchase agreements and derivative transactions. The duration of this restricted cash generally matches the duration of the related repurchase agreements or derivative transaction. Commercial Mortgage Loans Held for Investment - Held for Sale - Held for Sale, Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option - Real estate owned Real estate owned (“REO”) assets represent real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or purchase. REO assets are carried at their estimated fair value at acquisition and are presented net of accumulated depreciation and impairment charges. The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired real estate assets based on the fair value of the acquired assets such as land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment. Asset acquisitions in which monetary consideration is given generally include the transaction costs of the asset acquisition. Acquiring assets in groups requires not only ascertaining the cost of the asset (or net asset) group but also allocating that cost to the individual assets (or individual assets and liabilities) that make up the group. The cost of a group of assets acquired in an asset acquisition shall be allocated to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values and shall not give rise to goodwill. Real estate owned assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings and improvements and up to 15 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Renovations and/or replacements that improve or extend the life of the real estate owned assets are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Real estate owned revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer. The Company is considered to have satisfied all performance obligations at a point in time. Real estate owned assets that are probable to be sold within one year are reported as held for sale. Real estate owned assets classified as held for sale shall be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Real estate owned assets shall not be depreciated or amortized while it is classified as held for sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale shall continue to be accrued. Upon the disposition of a real estate owned asset, the Company calculates realized gains and losses as net proceeds received less the carrying value of the real estate owned asset. Net proceeds received are net of direct selling costs associated with the disposition of the real estate owned asset. Leases Operating right of use assets “ROU” represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. Leases will be classified as either a finance or operating lease, with such classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the consolidated statements of operations. For leases greater than 12 months, the Company determines, at the inception of the contract, if the arrangement meets the classification criteria for an operating or finance lease. For leases that have extension options, which can be exercised at the Company’s discretion, management uses judgment to determine if it is reasonably certain that such extension options will be elected. If the extension options are reasonably certain to occur, the Company includes the extended term’s lease payments in the calculation of the respective lease liability. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The incremental borrowing rate used to discount the lease liability is determined at commencement of the lease, or upon modification of the lease, as the interest rate a lessee would have to pay to borrow on a fully collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate considers information at both the corporate and property level and analysis of current market conditions for obtaining new financings. All leases as of June 30, 2021 were operating leases. Separately, on October 15, 2019, the Company acquired certain real estate assets which had an existing in-place lease asset. This in-place lease asset is recorded as an Intangible lease asset on the consolidated balance sheets and amortized using the straight-line method over the contractual life of the lease. Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which amends the credit impairment model for financial instruments. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. The allowance for credit losses required under ASU 2016-13 is deducted from the respective loans’ amortized cost basis on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for credit losses attributed to unfunded loan commitments is included in Accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets. The guidance also required a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the reporting period of adoption. The following discussion highlights changes to the Company’s accounting policies as a result of this adoption. Allowance for credit losses The allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments carried at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loans held for investment and unfunded loan commitments represents a lifetime estimate of expected credit losses. Factors considered by the Company when determining the allowance for credit losses reserve include loan-specific characteristics such as loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio, vintage year, loan term, property type, occupancy and geographic location, financial performance of the borrower, expected payments of principal and interest, as well as internal or external information relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist for multiple financial instruments. If similar risk characteristics do not exist, the Company measures the allowance for credit losses on an individual instrument basis. The determination of whether a particular financial instrument should be included in a pool can change over time. If a financial asset’s risk characteristics change, the Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to continue to keep the financial instrument in its existing pool or evaluate it individually. In measuring the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments including our unfunded loan commitments that share similar risk characteristics, the Company primarily applies a probability of default (“PD”)/loss given default (“LGD”) model for instruments that are collectively assessed, whereby the allowance for credit losses is calculated as the product of PD, LGD and exposure at default (“EAD”). The Company’s model principally utilizes historical loss rates derived from a commercial mortgage backed securities database with historical losses from 1998 to 2020 provided by a reputable third party, forecasting the loss parameters using a scenario-based statistical approach over a reasonable and supportable forecast period of twelve months, followed by an immediate reversion to average historical losses. For financial instruments assessed on an individual basis, including when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the full payment of principal and interest on the instrument, the Company applies a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology. For financial instruments where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty based on the Company’s assessment at the reporting date and the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the Company may elect to use as a practical expedient the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date when determining the allowance for credit losses. In developing the allowance for credit losses for its loans held for investment, the Company performs a comprehensive analysis of its loan portfolio and assigns risk ratings to loans that incorporate management’s current judgments about their credit quality based on all known and relevant internal and external factors that may affect collectability, using similar factors as those in developing the allowance for credit losses. This methodology results in loans being segmented by risk classification into risk rating categories that are associated with estimated probabilities of default and principal loss. Risk rating categories range from “1” to “5” with “1” representing the lowest risk of loss and “5” representing the highest risk of loss with the ratings updated quarterly. At the time of origination or purchase, loans held for investment are ranked as a “2” and will move accordingly going forward based on the ratings which are defined as follows: 1. Very Low Risk- 2. Low Risk- 3. Average Risk- 4. High Risk/Delinquent/Potential for Loss- 5. Impaired/Defaulted/Loss Likely- The Company also considers qualitative and environmental factors, including, but not limited to, economic and business conditions, nature and volume of the loan portfolio, lending terms, volume and severity of past due loans, concentration of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations in its determination of the allowance for credit losses. Changes in the allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments are recorded in Provision/(benefit) for credit losses on the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding offset to the financial instrument’s amortized cost recorded on the consolidated balance sheets, or as a component of Accounts payable and accrued expenses for unfunded loan commitments. The Company has elected to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivable as it is timely, following three months time, reversed against interest income when a loan, real estate security or preferred equity investment is placed on nonaccrual status. The Company did not record reversals of accrued interest receivable during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Loans are charged off against the Provision/(benefit) for credit losses when all or a portion of the principal amount is determined to be uncollectible. Past due and nonaccrual status Loans are placed on nonaccrual status and considered non-performing when full payment of principal and interest is unpaid for 90 days or more or where reasonable doubt exists as to timely collection, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Interest received on nonaccrual status loans are accounted for under the cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Upon restructuring the nonaccrual loan, the Company may return a loan to accrual status when repayment of principal and interest is reasonably assured. Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”) The Company classifies an individual financial instrument as a TDR when it has a reasonable expectation that the financial instrument’s contractual terms will be modified in a manner that grants concession to the borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions could include term extensions, payment deferrals, interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, forbearance, or other actions designed to maximize the Company’s collection on the financial instrument. The Company determines the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments that are TDRs individually. Real Estate Securities On the acquisition date, all of the Company’s commercial real estate securities were classified as available for sale and carried at fair value, and subsequently any unrealized gains or losses are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The Company may elect the fair value option for its real estate securities, and as a result, any unrealized gains or losses on such real estate securities will be recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. No such election has been made to date. Related discounts, premiums and acquisition expenses on investments are amortized over the life of the investment using the effective interest method. Amortization is reflected as an adjustment to interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company uses the specific identification method in determining the cost relief for real estate securities sold. Realized gains and losses from the sale of real estate securities are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. AFS real estate securities which have experienced a decline in the fair value below their amortized cost basis (i.e., impairment) are evaluated each reporting period to determine whether the decline in fair value is due to credit-related factors. Any impairment that is not credit-related is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, while credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance on the consolidated balance sheets with a corresponding adjustment on the consolidated statements of operations. If the Company intends to sell an impaired real estate security or more likely than not will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis. The Company analyzes the AFS security portfolio on a periodic basis for credit losses at the individual security level using the same criteria described above for those amortized cost financial assets subject to an allowance for credit losses including but not limited to; performance of the underlying assets in the security, borrower financial resources and investment in collateral, collateral type, credit ratings, project economics and geographic location as well as national and regional economic factors. The non-credit loss component of the unrealized loss within the Company’s AFS portfolio is recognized as an adjustment to the individual security’s asset balance with an offsetting entry to accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheets. Repurchase Agreements Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities sold under repurchase agreements have been treated as collateralized financing transactions because the Company maintains effective control over the transferred securities. Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities financed through a repurchase agreement remain on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as an asset and cash received from the purchaser is recorded as a liability. Interest paid in accordance with repurchase agreements is recorded in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Deferred Financing Costs The deferred financing costs related to the Company’s various Master Repurchase Agreements as well as certain prepaid subscription costs are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing cost on the Company’s collateralized loan obligations (“CLO”) are netted against the Company’s CLO payable in the Collateralized loan obligations on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing costs are amortized over the terms of the respective financing agreement using the effective interest method and included in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Unamortized deferred financing costs are generally expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Share Repurchase Program The Company has a Share Repurchase Program (the “SRP”) that enables stockholders to sell their shares to the Company, subject to certain conditions. Refer to Note 9 - Stock Transactions for a description of the SRP. When a stockholder requests a redemption and the redemption is approved by the board of directors, the Company will reclassify such obligation from equity to a liability based on the settlement value of the obligation. Shares repurchased under the SRP will have the status of authorized but unissued shares. Offering and Related Costs Since 2018, the Company has from time to time offered, and may in the future offer, shares of the Company’s common stock or one or more series of its preferred stock (“Preferred Stock”), including its Series A convertible preferred stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”), Series C convertible preferred stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock,”) and Series D convertible preferred stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock,” and together with the Series A Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock”) in private placements exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In connection with these offerings, the Company incurs various offering costs. These offering costs include but are not limited to legal, accounting, printing, mailing and filing fees, and diligence expenses of broker-dealers. Offering costs for the common stock are recorded in the Company’s stockholders’ equity, while the offering costs for the Preferred Stock are included within Series A Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock, respectively, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Distribution Reinvestment Plan Pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) stockholders may elect to reinvest distributions by purchasing shares of common stock in lieu of receiving cash. No dealer manager fees or selling commissions are paid with respect to shares purchased pursuant to the DRIP. The purchase price for shares purchased through the DRIP is the lesser of (i) the Company’s most recent estimated per share net asset value (“NAV”), and (ii) the Company’s most recently disclosed GAAP book value per share. There is no market for our common stock. The board of directors may designate that certain cash or other distributions be excluded from the DRIP. The Company has the right to amend any aspect of the DRIP or terminate the DRIP with ten days’ notice to participants. Shares issued under the DRIP are recorded to equity in the consolidated balance sheets in the period distributions are declared. Income Taxes The Company has conducted its operations to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2013. As a REIT, if the Company meets certain organizational and operational requirements and distributes at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income” (determined before the deduction of dividends paid and excluding net capital gains) to its stockholders in a year, it will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent of the income that it distributes. However, even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on income in addition to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. The Company, through its TRS, is indirectly subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. The Company’s TRS is not consolidated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but is instead taxed as a C corporation. For financial reporting purposes, the TRS is consolidated and a provision for current and deferred taxes is established for the portion of earnings recognized by the Company with respect to its interest in its TRS. Total income tax provision/(benefit) for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 was $0.3 million and $(0.7) million, respectively. Total income tax provision/(benefit) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 was $2.3 million and $(2.6) million, respectively. The Company uses a more-likely-than-not threshold for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or to be taken in a tax return. The Company has assessed its tax positions for all open tax years beginning with December 31, 2017 and concluded that there were no uncertainties to be recognized. The Company’s accounting policy with respect to interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties is to classify these amounts as provision for income taxes. The Company utilizes the TRS to reduce the impact of the prohibited transaction tax and to avoid penalty for the holding of assets not qualifying as real estate assets for purposes of the REIT asset tests. Any income associated with a TRS is fully taxable because the TRS is subject to federal and state income taxes as a domestic C corporation based upon its net income. Derivatives and Hedging Activities In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effect of interest rate changes and may undertake a strategy to limit these risks through the use of derivatives. The Company uses derivatives primarily to economically hedge against interest rates, CMBS spreads and macro market risk in order to minimize volatility. The Company may use a variety of derivative instruments that are considered conventional, including but not limited to: Treasury note futures and credit derivatives on various indices including CMBX and CDX. The Company recognizes all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The Company does not designate derivatives as hedges to qualify for hedge accounting for financial reporting purposes and therefore any net payments under, or fluctuations in the fair value of these derivatives have been recognized currently in unrealized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company records derivative asset and liability positions on a gross basis with any collateral posted with or received from counterparties recorded separately within Restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Certain derivatives that the Company has entered into are subject to master netting agreements with its counterparties, allowing for netting of the same transaction, in the same currency, on the same date. Per Share Data The Company’s Preferred Stock is considered a participating security and the Company calculates basic earnings per share using the two-class method. The Company’s dilutive earnings per share calculation is computed using the more dilutive result of the treasury stock method, assuming the participating security is a potential common share, or the two-class method, assuming the participating security is not converted. The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing net income applicable to common stock for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for that period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from shares outstanding if potential shares of common stock with a dilutive effect have been issued in connection with the restricted stock plan or upon conversion of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock, except when doing so would be anti-dilutive. Reportable Segments The Company has determined that it has four reportable segments based on how the chief operating decision maker reviews and manages the business. The four reporting segments are as follows: • The real estate debt business which is focused on originating, acquiring and asset managing commercial real estate debt investments, including first mortgage loans, subordinate mortgages, mezzanine loans and participations in such loans. • The real estate securities business which is focused on investing in and asset managing commercial real estate securities primarily consisting of CMBS and may include unsecured REIT debt, CDO notes and other securities. • The commercial conduit business in the Company’s TRS, which is focused on originating and subsequently selling fixed-rate commercial real estate loans into the CMBS securitization market. • The real estate owned business represents real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or purchase. See Note 15 - Segment Reporting for further information regarding the Company’s segments. Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock The Company’s outstanding Preferred Stock is classified outside of permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheets. Subject to certain conditions, the outstanding Preferred Stock is redeemable at the option of the holders of the Preferred Stock, outside of the control of the Company. Series A Preferred Stock The Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), and on parity with all other outstanding classes of preferred stock of the Company (including the Series C and Series D Preferred Stock) with respect to priority in dividends and in the distribution of assets in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company. The liquidation preference of each share of Series A Preferred Stock is the greater of (i) $5,000 plus accrued and unpaid dividends, and (ii) the amount that would be received upon a conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock. Dividends are on the Series A Preferred Stock, which are typically declared and paid quarterly, accrue at a rate equal to the greater of (i) an annual amount equal to 4.0% of the liquidation preference per share (subject to a 1.0% increase in the event of the ratings for the Series A Preferred Stock decreases below a certain threshold) and (ii) the dividends that would have been paid had such share of Series A Preferred Stock been converted into a share of Common Stock on the first day of such quarter, subject to proration in the event the share of Series A Preferred Stock is not outstanding for the full quarter. Dividends are paid in arrears. Dividends will accumulate and be cumulative from the most recent date to which dividends had been paid. Immediately prior to a “Liquidity Event,” each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock shall convert into 299.2 If there has not been a Liquidity Event by June 25, 2024 (six years from the initial issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock), each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to require the Company to redeem its Series A Preferred Stock for cash at the liquidation preference, or such holder may convert all, but not less than all, of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder into Common Stock at the Conversion Rate. In the event of the sale of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company (by sale, merger, consolidation or otherwise) or the acquisition by any person of more than 50% of the total economic interests or voting power of all securities of the Company (a “Company Change of Control”), other than a Liquidity Ev	Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting The Company’s consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-K and Regulation S-X, as appropriate. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current presentation. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented have been included. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results in any subsequent reporting period. Use of Estimates GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. In the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments, of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the entire year or any subsequent periods. In response to the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, numerous countries, including the U.S., have declared national emergencies with respect to COVID-19 and certain jurisdictions, including those where our corporate headquarters and/or properties that secure our investments, or properties that the Company owns, are located, have at times imposed “stay-at-home” guidelines or orders or other restrictions to help prevent its spread. The effects of COVID-19 may negatively and materially impact significant estimates and assumptions used by the Company including, but not limited to estimates of expected credit losses, valuation of our equity method investments and the fair value estimates of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the other partners or members, as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company has determined the OP is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held by the OP. The Company consolidates all entities that it controls through either majority ownership or voting rights. In addition, the Company consolidates all VIEs of which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. VIEs are entities in which equity investors (i) do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and/or (ii) do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The entity that consolidates a VIE is its primary beneficiary and is generally the entity with (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) issued and securitized by wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The Company has determined the CLOs are VIEs of which the Company’s subsidiary is the primary beneficiary. The assets and liabilities of the CLOs are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation. Acquisition Expenses The Company capitalizes certain direct costs relating to loan origination activities. The cost is amortized over the life of the loan and recognized in interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Acquisition expenses paid on future funding amounts are expensed within the acquisition expenses line in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash consists of amounts deposited with high quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company up to an insurance limit. Cash equivalents include short-term, liquid investments in money market funds with original maturities of 90 days or less when purchased. Restricted Cash Restricted cash primarily consists of cash pledged as margin on repurchase agreements and derivative transactions. The duration of this restricted cash generally matches the duration of the related repurchase agreements or derivative transaction. Commercial Mortgage Loans Held for Investment - Held-for-Sale - Held-for-Sale, Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option - Real estate owned Real estate owned (“REO”) assets represent real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or purchase. REO assets are carried at their estimated fair value at acquisition and are presented net of accumulated depreciation and impairment charges. The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired real estate assets based on the fair value of the acquired assets such as land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment. Asset acquisitions in which monetary consideration is given generally includes the transaction costs of the asset acquisition. Acquiring assets in groups requires not only ascertaining the cost of the asset (or net asset) group but also allocating that cost to the individual assets (or individual assets and liabilities) that make up the group. The cost of a group of assets acquired in an asset acquisition shall be allocated to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values and shall not give rise to goodwill. Real estate owned assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings and improvements and up to 15 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Renovations and/or replacements that improve or extend the life of the real estate owned assets are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Real estate owned revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer. The Company is considered to have satisfied all performance obligations at a point in time. Real estate owned assets that are probable to be sold within one year are reported as held-for-sale. Real estate owned assets classified as held-for-sale shall be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Real estate owned assets shall not be depreciated or amortized while it is classified as held-for-sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal group classified as held-for-sale shall continue to be accrued. Upon the disposition of a real estate owned asset, the Company calculates realized gains and losses as net proceeds received less the carrying value of the real estate owned asset. Net proceeds received are net of direct selling costs associated with the disposition of the real estate owned asset. Leases Operating right of use assets “ROU” represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. Leases will be classified as either a finance or operating lease, with such classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the consolidated statements of operations. For leases greater than 12 months, the Company determines, at the inception of the contract, if the arrangement meets the classification criteria for an operating or finance lease. For leases that have extension options, which can be exercised at the Company’s discretion, management uses judgment to determine if it is reasonably certain that such extension options will be elected. If the extension options are reasonably certain to occur, the Company includes the extended term’s lease payments in the calculation of the respective lease liability. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The incremental borrowing rate used to discount the lease liability is determined at commencement of the lease, or upon modification of the lease, as the interest rate a lessee would have to pay to borrow on a fully collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate considers information at both the corporate and property level and analysis of current market conditions for obtaining new financings. All leases as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were operating leases. Separately, on October 15, 2019, the Company acquired certain real estate assets which had an existing in-place lease asset. This in-place lease asset is recorded as an Intangible lease asset on the consolidated balance sheets and amortized using the straight-line method over the contractual life of the lease. Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which amends the credit impairment model for financial instruments. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. Following our adoption of ASU 2016-13, our previous incurred loss model was replaced with a lifetime current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model for financial instruments carried at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loans, loan commitments, held-to-maturity (“HTM”) debt securities, financial guarantees, net investments in leases, reinsurance and trade receivables, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowance for losses. For available for sale (“AFS”) debt securities, unrealized credit losses are recognized as allowances rather than reductions in amortized cost basis and elimination of the other than temporary impairment concept will result in more frequent estimation of credit losses. The accounting model for purchased credit impaired loans and debt securities has been simplified, including elimination of some of the asymmetrical treatment between credit losses and credit recoveries, to be consistent with the CECL model for originated and purchased non-credit impaired assets. The adopted model for ASC 326 as it applies to HTM and AFS securities, encompassing the beneficial interest model for securities that are not of high credit quality, has been clarified to include the effective interest method as a basis for the projection of cash collections method in connection with the newly adopted impairment models for HTM and AFS debt securities under ASC 326 when securities are not of high credit quality. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, the Company recorded an additional allowance for credit losses for our outstanding loans and unfunded loan commitments of $7.8 million, or $ 0.18 0.27% Pre-adoption Transition Adjustment Post-adjustment Assets Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment, net of allowance $ 2,762,042 $ (7,211 ) $ 2,754,831 Liabilities Accounts payable and accrued expenses (1) 10,925 (550 ) 10,375 Equity Accumulated deficit $ (85,968 ) $ (7,761 ) $ (93,729 ) (1) Includes allowance associated with unfunded loan commitment. The following discussion highlights changes to the Company’s accounting policies as a result of this adoption. Allowance for credit losses The allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments carried at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loans held for investment and unfunded loan commitments represents a lifetime estimate of expected credit losses. Factors considered by the Company when determining the allowance for credit losses reserve include loan-specific characteristics such as loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio, vintage year, loan term, property type, occupancy and geographic location, financial performance of the borrower, expected payments of principal and interest, as well as internal or external information relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist for multiple financial instruments. If similar risk characteristics do not exist, the Company measures the allowance for credit losses on an individual instrument basis. The determination of whether a particular financial instrument should be included in a pool can change over time. If a financial asset’s risk characteristics change, the Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to continue to keep the financial instrument in its existing pool or evaluate it individually. In measuring the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments including our unfunded loan commitments that share similar risk characteristics, the Company primarily applies a probability of default (“PD”)/loss given default (“LGD”) model for instruments that are collectively assessed, whereby the allowance for credit losses is calculated as the product of PD, LGD and exposure at default (“EAD”). The Company’s model principally utilizes historical loss rates derived from a commercial mortgage backed securities database with historical losses from 1998 to 2020 provided by a reputable third party, forecasting the loss parameters using a scenario-based statistical approach over a reasonable and supportable forecast period of twelve months, followed by an immediate reversion to average historical losses. For financial instruments assessed on an individual basis, including when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the full payment of principal and interest on the instrument, the Company applies a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology. For financial instruments where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty based on the Company’s assessment at the reporting date and the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the Company may elect to use as a practical expedient the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date when determining the allowance for credit losses. In developing the allowance for credit losses for its loans held for investment, the Company performs a comprehensive analysis of its loan portfolio and assigns risk ratings to loans that incorporate management’s current judgments about their credit quality based on all known and relevant internal and external factors that may affect collectability, using similar factors as those in developing the allowance for credit losses. This methodology results in loans being segmented by risk classification into risk rating categories that are associated with estimated probabilities of default and principal loss. Risk rating categories range from “1” to “5” with “1” representing the lowest risk of loss and “5” representing the highest risk of loss with the ratings updated quarterly. At the time of origination or purchase, loans held for investment are ranked as a “2” and will move accordingly going forward based on the ratings which are defined as follows: 1. Very Low Risk- 2. Low Risk- 3. Average Risk- 4. High Risk/Delinquent/Potential for Loss- 5. Impaired/Defaulted/Loss Likely- The Company also considers qualitative and environmental factors, including, but not limited to, economic and business conditions, nature and volume of the loan portfolio, lending terms, volume and severity of past due loans, concentration of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations in its determination of the allowance for credit losses. Changes in the allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments are recorded in Provision/(benefit) for credit losses on the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding offset to the financial instrument’s amortized cost recorded on the consolidated balance sheets, or as a component of Accounts payable and accrued expenses for unfunded loan commitments. The Company has elected to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivable as it is timely, following three months time, reversed against interest income when a loan, real estate security or preferred equity investment is placed on nonaccrual status. The Company did not record reversals of accrued interest receivable during the year ended December 31, 2020. Loans are charged off against the Provision/(benefit) for credit losses when all or a portion of the principal amount is determined to be uncollectible. Past due and nonaccrual status Loans are placed on nonaccrual status and considered non-performing when full payment of principal and interest is unpaid for 90 days or more or where reasonable doubt exists as to timely collection, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Interest received on nonaccrual status loans are accounted for under the cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Upon restructuring the nonaccrual loan, the Company may return a loan to accrual status when repayment of principal and interest is reasonably assured. Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”) The Company classifies an individual financial instrument as a TDR when it has a reasonable expectation that the financial instrument’s contractual terms will be modified in a manner that grants concession to the borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions could include term extensions, payment deferrals, interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, forbearance, or other actions designed to maximize the Company’s collection on the financial instrument. The Company determines the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments that are TDRs individually. Real Estate Securities On the acquisition date, all of the Company’s commercial real estate securities were classified as available for sale and carried at fair value, and subsequently any unrealized gains or losses are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The Company may elect the fair value option for its real estate securities, and as a result, any unrealized gains or losses on such real estate securities will be recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. No such election has been made to date. Related discounts, premiums and acquisition expenses on investments are amortized over the life of the investment using the effective interest method. Amortization is reflected as an adjustment to interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company uses the specific identification method in determining the cost relief for real estate securities sold. Realized gains and losses from the sale of real estate securities are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. AFS real estate securities which have experienced a decline in the fair value below their amortized cost basis (i.e., impairment) are evaluated each reporting period to determine whether the decline in fair value is due to credit-related factors. Any impairment that is not credit-related is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, while credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance on the consolidated balance sheets with a corresponding adjustment on the consolidated statements of operations. If the Company intends to sell an impaired real estate security or more likely than not will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis. The Company analyzes the AFS security portfolio on a periodic basis for credit losses at the individual security level using the same criteria described above for those amortized cost financial assets subject to an allowance for credit losses including but not limited to; performance of the underlying assets in the security, borrower financial resources and investment in collateral, collateral type, credit ratings, project economics and geographic location as well as national and regional economic factors. The non-credit loss component of the unrealized loss within the Company’s AFS portfolio is recognized as an adjustment to the individual security’s asset balance with an offsetting entry to accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheets. Repurchase Agreements Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities sold under repurchase agreements have been treated as collateralized financing transactions because the Company maintains effective control over the transferred securities. Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities financed through a repurchase agreement remain on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as an asset and cash received from the purchaser is recorded as a liability. Interest paid in accordance with repurchase agreements is recorded in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Deferred Financing Costs The deferred financing costs related to the Company’s various Master Repurchase Agreements as well as certain prepaid subscription costs are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing cost on the Company’s collateralized loan obligations (“CLO”) are netted against the Company’s CLO payable in the Collateralized loan obligations on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing costs are amortized over the terms of the respective financing agreement using the effective interest method and included in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Unamortized deferred financing costs are generally expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Share Repurchase Program The Company has a Share Repurchase Program (the “SRP”) that enables stockholders to sell their shares to the Company, subject to certain conditions. Refer to Note 9 - Stock Transactions for a description of the SRP. When a stockholder requests a redemption and the redemption is approved by the board of directors, the Company will reclassify such obligation from equity to a liability based on the settlement value of the obligation. Shares repurchased under the SRP will have the status of authorized but unissued shares. Offering and Related Costs Since 2018, the Company has from time to time offered, and may in the future offer, shares of the Company’s common stock or one or more series of its preferred stock (“Preferred Stock”), including its Series A convertible preferred stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) and Series C convertible preferred stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock,”) in private placements exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In connection with these offerings, the Company incurs various offering costs. These offering costs include but are not limited to legal, accounting, printing, mailing and filing fees, and diligence expenses of broker-dealers. Offering costs for the common stock are recorded in the Company’s stockholders’ equity, while the offering costs for the Preferred Stock are included within Series A Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, respectively, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Distribution Reinvestment Plan Pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”), stockholders may elect to reinvest distributions by purchasing shares of common stock in lieu of receiving cash. No dealer manager fees or selling commissions are paid with respect to shares purchased pursuant to the DRIP. The purchase price for shares purchased through the DRIP is the lesser of (i) the Company’s most recent estimated per share NAV, and (ii) the Company’s GAAP book value per share. There is no market for our common stock. The board of directors may designate that certain cash or other distributions be excluded from the DRIP. The Company has the right to amend any aspect of the DRIP or terminate the DRIP with ten days’ notice to participants. Shares issued under the DRIP are recorded to equity in the consolidated balance sheets in the period distributions are declared. Share-Based Compensation The Company has a share-based incentive plan for certain of the Company’s directors, officers and employees of the Advisor and its affiliates. Share-based awards are measured at the grant date fair value and is recognized as compensation expense on a on a straight line basis over the related vesting period of the award. See Note 12 - Share-Based Compensation. Income Taxes The Company has conducted its operations to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2013. As a REIT, if the Company meets certain organizational and operational requirements and distributes at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income” (determined before the deduction of dividends paid and excluding net capital gains) to its stockholders in a year, it will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent of the income that it distributes. However, even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on income in addition to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. The Company, through its TRS, is indirectly subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. The Company’s TRS is not consolidated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but is instead taxed as a C corporation. For financial reporting purposes, the TRS is consolidated and a provision for current and deferred taxes is established for the portion of earnings recognized by the Company with respect to its interest in its TRS. Total income tax provision/(benefit) for the years ended December 31, 2020, December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $(2.1) million, $4.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The Company uses a more-likely-than-not threshold for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or to be taken in a tax return. The Company has assessed its tax positions for all open tax years beginning with December 31, 2017 and concluded that there were no uncertainties to be recognized. The Company’s accounting policy with respect to interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties is to classify these amounts as provision for income taxes. The Company utilizes the TRS to reduce the impact of the prohibited transaction tax and to avoid penalty for the holding of assets not qualifying as real estate assets for purposes of the REIT asset tests. Any income associated with a TRS is fully taxable because the TRS is subject to federal and state income taxes as a domestic C corporation based upon its net income. Derivatives and Hedging Activities In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effect of interest rate changes and may undertake a strategy to limit these risks through the use of derivatives. The Company uses derivatives primarily to economically hedge against interest rates, CMBS spreads and macro market risk in order to minimize volatility. The Company may use a variety of derivative instruments that are considered conventional, including but not limited to: Treasury note futures and credit derivatives on various indices including CMBX and CDX. The Company recognizes all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The Company does not designate derivatives as hedges to qualify for hedge accounting for financial reporting purposes and therefore any net payments under, or fluctuations in the fair value of these derivatives have been recognized currently in unrealized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company records derivative asset and liability positions on a gross basis with any collateral posted with or received from counterparties recorded separately within Restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Certain derivatives that the Company has entered into are subject to master netting agreements with its counterparties, allowing for netting of the same transaction, in the same currency, on the same date. Per Share Data The Company’s Preferred Stock is considered a participating security and the Company calculates basic earnings per share using the two-class method. The Company’s dilutive earnings per share calculation is computed using the more dilutive result of the treasury stock method, assuming the participating security is a potential common share, or the two-class method, assuming the participating security is not converted. The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing net income applicable to common stock for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for that period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from shares outstanding if potential shares of common stock with a dilutive effect have been issued in connection with the restricted stock plan or upon conversion of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock, except when doing so would be anti-dilutive. Reportable Segments The Company has determined that it has four reportable segments based on how the chief operating decision maker reviews and manages the business. The four reporting segments are as follows: • The real estate debt business which is focused on originating, acquiring and asset managing commercial real estate debt investments, including first mortgage loans, subordinate mortgages, mezzanine loans and participations in such loans. • The real estate securities business which is focused on investing in and asset managing commercial real estate securities primarily consisting of CMBS and may include unsecured REIT debt, CDO notes and other securities. • The commercial conduit business in the Company’s TRS, which is focused on originating and subsequently selling fixed-rate commercial real estate loans into the CMBS securitization market. • The real estate owned business represents real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or purchase. See Note 16 - Segment Reporting for further information regarding the Company’s segments.

Credit Characteristics As part of the Company’s process for monitoring the credit quality of its commercial mortgage loans, excluding those held for sale, measured at fair value, it performs a quarterly loan portfolio assessment and assigns risk ratings to each of its loans. The loans are scored on a scale of 1 to 5 as follows: Investment Rating Summary Description 1 Investment exceeding fundamental performance expectations and/or capital gain expected. Trends and risk factors since time of investment are favorable. 2 Performing consistent with expectations and a full return of principal and interest expected. Trends and risk factors are neutral to favorable. 3 Performing investments requiring closer monitoring. Trends and risk factors show some deterioration. 4 Underperforming investment with the potential of some interest loss but still expecting a positive return on investment. Trends and risk factors are negative. 5 Underperforming investment with expected loss of interest and some principal. All commercial mortgage loans, excluding loans classified as commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value within the consolidated balance sheets, are assigned an initial risk rating of 2.0. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the weighted average risk rating of the loans was 2.2. The following table represents the allocation by risk rating for the Company’s commercial mortgage loans, held for investment (dollars in thousands): June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Risk Rating Number of Loans Par Value Risk Rating Number of Loans Par Value 1 — $ — 1 — $ — 2 125 2,718,840 2 104 2,232,045 3 22 359,593 3 22 384,040 4 1 57,075 4 4 106,778 5 — — 5 — — 148 $ 3,135,508 130 $ 2,722,863 For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and year ended December 31, 2020, the activity in the Company’s commercial mortgage loans, held for investment portfolio was as follows (dollars in thousands): Six Months Ended June 30, Year Ended December 31, 2021 2020 Balance at Beginning of Year $ 2,693,848 $ 2,762,042 Cumulative-effect adjustment upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 — (7,211 ) Acquisitions and originations 921,104 1,287,720 Principal repayments (470,936 ) (1,223,490 ) Discount accretion/premium amortization 2,852 6,146 Loans transferred from/(to) commercial real estate loans, held for sale — (76,979 ) Net fees capitalized into carrying value of loans (3,928 ) (6,562 ) (Provision)/benefit for credit losses 3,405 (13,181 ) Charge-off from allowance 289 427 Transfer to real estate owned (37,523 ) (35,064 ) Balance at End of Period $ 3,109,111 $ 2,693,848 During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company wrote off a commercial mortgage loan, held for investment, with a carrying value of $37.8 million in exchange for the possession of a REO investment at a fair value of $37.5 million, comprised of $33.0 million of real property (land, building and improvements) and $4.5 million of personal property (furniture, fixture, and equipment) at the time of transfer. The transfer occurred when the Company took possession of the property by completing a foreclosure transaction in January 2021, resulting in a $0.3 million impairment loss at the time of transfer. Since the foreclosure was entered into due to the borrower experiencing financial difficulty and the recorded investment in the receivable was more than the fair value of the collateral collected, the transaction qualifies as a TDR. The Company accounted for the REO acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as an asset acquisition. The Company subsequently sold this REO asset during the six months ended June 30, 2021 for a $0.8 million gain, presented net of direct selling costs associated with the disposition of the asset, included within Realized gain/loss on sale of real estate owned assets, held for sale in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

As of December 31, 2019, the Company had one loan on non-accrual status with a cost basis of $57.1 million. Credit Characteristics As part of the Company’s process for monitoring the credit quality of its commercial mortgage loans, excluding those held-for-sale, measured at fair value, it performs a quarterly loan portfolio assessment and assigns risk ratings to each of its loans. The loans are scored on a scale of 1 to 5 as follows: Investment Rating Summary Description 1 Investment exceeding fundamental performance expectations and/or capital gain expected. Trends and risk factors since time of investment are favorable. 2 Performing consistent with expectations and a full return of principal and interest expected. Trends and risk factors are neutral to favorable. 3 Performing investments requiring closer monitoring. Trends and risk factors show some deterioration. 4 Underperforming investment with the potential of some interest loss but still expecting a positive return on investment. Trends and risk factors are negative. 5 Underperforming investment with expected loss of interest and some principal. All commercial mortgage loans, excluding loans classified as commercial mortgage loans, held-for-sale, measured at fair value within the consolidated balance sheets, are assigned an initial risk rating of 2.0. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the weighted average risk ratings of loans were 2.2 2.1 The following table represents the allocation by risk rating for the Company’s commercial mortgage loans, held for investment, measured at fair value: December 31, 2020 December 31, 2019 Risk Rating Number of Loans Par Value Risk Rating Number of Loans Par Value 1 — $ — 1 — — 2 104 2,232,045 2 113 2,452,330 3 22 384,040 3 8 298,994 4 4 106,778 4 1 19,975 5 — — 5 — — 130 $ 2,722,863 122 $ 2,771,299 For the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the activity in the Company’s commercial mortgage loans, held for investment portfolio was as follows (dollars in thousands): Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 Balance at Beginning of Year $ 2,762,042 $ 2,206,830 Cumulative-effect adjustment upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 (7,211 ) — Acquisitions and originations 1,287,720 1,326,983 Principal repayments (1,223,490 ) (771,774 ) Discount accretion/premium amortization 6,146 6,264 Loans transferred from/(to) commercial real estate loans, held-for-sale (76,979 ) 10,100 Net fees capitalized into carrying value of loans (6,562 ) (5,339 ) Provision/(benefit) for credit losses (13,181 ) (3,007 ) Charge-off from allowance 427 6,922 Transfer to real estate owned (35,064 ) — Transfer on deed in lieu of foreclosure to real estate owned — (14,937 ) Balance at End of Year $ 2,693,848 $ 2,762,042 During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company wrote off a commercial mortgage loan, held for investment, with a carrying value of $14.4 million in exchange for the possession of a REO investment at a fair value of $14.0 million at the time of the transfer. This $14.0 million REO investment was comprised of $11.6 million of real property (land, building and improvements) and $2.4 million of personal property (furniture, fixture, and equipment). The transfer occurred when the Company took possession of the property by completing a foreclosure transaction in March 2020, resulting in a $0.4 million impairment loss at the time of transfer. Since the foreclosure was entered into due to the borrower experiencing financial difficulty and the recorded investment in the receivable was more than the fair value for the collateral collected, the transaction qualifies as a TDR. The Company sold this REO asset during the year ended December 31, 2020 for a $1.4 million gain, presented net of direct selling costs associated with the disposition of the asset, included within Realized gain/loss on sale of real estate owned assets, held-for-sale in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The results of operations of the REO and the gain on sale have been included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company reached an agreement with a borrower to take possession of certain real estate collateral. At the time of transfer, the carrying value of the commercial mortgage loan, held for investment was $21.1 million, which was exchanged for possession of the REO asset at a purchase price of $21.4 million. This $21.4 million REO investment was comprised of $18.9 million of real property (land, building and improvements) and $2.5 million of personal property (furniture, fixture, and equipment). The Company accounted for the REO acquired during the year ended December 31, 2020 as an asset acquisition. No gain or loss was recognized at the time of transfer. The Company sold this REO asset during the year ended December 31, 2020 for a $0.4 million gain, included within Realized gain/loss on sale of real estate owned assets, held-for-sale in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

The weighted average contractual maturity for CLO investments included within the CMBS portfolio as of December 31, 2020 was 14 years. The weighted average contractual maturity for single asset single borrower “SASB” investments as of December 31, 2020 was 14 years. The following table shows the amortized cost, allowance for expected credit losses, unrealized gain/(loss) and fair value of the Company’s CMBS investments by investment type as of December 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands): Amortized Cost Credit Loss Allowance UnrealizedGain Unrealized Loss Fair Value December 31, 2020 CLOs $ 123,444 $ — $ — $ (4,888 ) $ 118,556 SASB 55,948 — — (3,368 ) 52,580 Total $ 179,392 $ — $ — $ (8,256 ) $ 171,136 As of December 31, 2020, the Company held 9 CMBS positions with an amortized cost basis of $179.4 million and an unrealized loss of $8.3 million, of which 7 positions had an unrealized loss for a period greater than twelve months. As of June 30, 2021 the Company did not hold any real estate securities, CMBS. The following table provides information on the unrealized losses and fair value on the Company’s real estate securities, CMBS, available for sale that were in an unrealized loss position, and for which an allowance for credit losses has not been recorded, in each case as of December 31, 2020 (amounts in thousands): Fair Value Unrealized Loss Securities with an unrealized loss less than Securities with an unrealized loss greater than 12 months Securities with an unrealized loss less than 12 months Securities with an unrealized loss greater than 12 months December 31, 2020 CLOs $ 63,131 $ 55,425 $ (2,824 ) $ (2,064 ) SASB — 52,580 — (3,368 ) Total $ 63,131 $ 108,005 $ (2,824 ) $ (5,432 ) As of June 30, 2021 the Company did not hold any real estate securities, CMBS. As of December 31, 2020, there were 7 securities with unrealized losses for a period greater than twelve months reflected in the table above. After evaluating the securities, the Company concluded that the unrealized losses reflected above were noncredit-related and would be recovered from the securities’ estimated future cash flows. The Company considered a number of factors in reaching this conclusion, including that the Company did not intend to sell the securities, it was not considered more likely than not that we would be forced to sell the securities prior to recovering our amortized cost, the portfolio is made up of investment grade securities of recent originations and higher tranches, and that there were no material credit events that would have caused us to otherwise conclude that the Company would not recover our cost. The allowance for credit losses is calculated using a discounted cash flow approach and is measured as the difference between the original cash flows expected to be collected to the revised cash flows expected to be collected discounted using the effective interest rate, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Significant judgment is used in projecting cash flows. As a result, actual income and/or credit losses could be materially different from what is currently projected and/or reported.

The Company’s unrealized gain/(loss) on available for sale securities is net of tax. Due to the Company’s designation as a REIT, there was no tax impact on unrealized gain/(loss) on available for sale securities.

The Company’s unrealized gain/(loss) on available for sale securities is net of tax. Due to the Company’s designation as a REIT, there was no tax impact on unrealized gain/(loss) on available for sale securities. The deterioration in fair value of real estate securities for both collateralized loan obligations and other securities as of December 31, 2020 can be attributed mainly to the market down-turn and volatility as a result of high unemployment and credit uncertainties related to the outbreak of COVID-19. Management currently does not have the intention to sell any of the real estate securities as of December 31, 2020.

The transaction settled on March 18, 2021. The following tables present the activity in the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock for the period ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively (dollars in thousands, except share amounts): Shares Amount Balance, December 31, 2020 40,515 $ 202,292 Exchanged for Series D Preferred Stock (14,950 ) (74,748 ) Dividends paid in Preferred Stock 2 5 Offering costs — (14 ) Amortization of offering costs — 44 Ending Balance, June 30, 2021 25,567 $ 127,579 Shares Amount Balance, December 31, 2019 40,500 $ 202,144 Issuance of Preferred Stock 14 70 Dividends paid in Preferred Stock — — Offering costs — (9 ) Amortization of offering costs — 48 Ending Balance, June 30, 2020 40,514 $ 202,253 Shares Amount Balance, December 31, 2020 1,400 $ 6,962 Issuance of Preferred Stock — — Dividends paid in Preferred Stock — — Offering costs — — Amortization of offering costs — 4 Ending Balance, June 30, 2021 1,400 $ 6,966 Shares Amount Balance, December 31, 2019 1,400 $ 6,966 Issuance of Preferred Stock — — Dividends paid in Preferred Stock — — Offering costs — (9 ) Amortization of offering costs — 3 Ending Balance, June 30, 2020 1,400 $ 6,960 The following table presents the activity in the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock for the period ended June 30, 2021 (dollars in thousands, except share amounts): Shares Amount Balance, December 31, 2020 — $ — Issuance of Preferred Stock 17,950 89,748 Dividends paid in Preferred Stock — — Offering Costs — (83 ) Amortization of offering costs — 5 Ending Balance, June 30, 2021 17,950 $ 89,670 As of June 30, 2020 the Company did not have any Series D Preferred Stock outstanding. Distributions In order to maintain its election to qualify as a REIT, the Company must currently distribute, at a minimum, an amount equal to 90% of its taxable income, without regard to the deduction for distributions paid and excluding net capital gains. The Company must distribute 100% of its taxable income (including net capital gains) to avoid paying corporate U.S. federal income taxes. Distribution payments are dependent on the availability of funds. The Company’s board of directors may reduce the amount of distributions paid or suspend distribution payments at any time, and therefore, distributions payments are not assured. In April 2020, the Company’s board of directors unanimously approved a transition in the timing of the dividend payments to holders of the Company’s common stock from a monthly payment with daily accruals to a quarterly payment and accrual basis. The first quarterly dividend was the second quarter 2020 dividend payable in July 2020. Similarly, the Company began paying accrued and unpaid dividends on Preferred Stock on a quarterly basis. The monthly distributions for the first quarter of 2020 were paid at a daily rate equivalent to $1.44 per annum, per share of common stock. Starting with the second quarter 2020 distribution, the 2020 quarterly distributions were paid at a quarterly rate of $0.275 per share of common stock (equivalent to $1.10 per annum). Distribution payments are dependent on the availability of funds. The board of directors may reduce the amount of distributions paid or suspend distribution payments at any time, and therefore, distribution payments are not assured. Dividends on the Company’s Preferred Stock, to the extent not declared by the board of directors quarterly, will accrue, and dividends may not be paid on the Company’s common stock to the extent there are accrued and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock. The amount of dividends paid on the Company’s Preferred Stock are generally in an amount equal to the dividends a holder of Preferred Stock would have received if the Preferred Stock had been converted into common stock in accordance with its terms, except when the amount of common stock dividends are below the threshold stated in the terms of such Preferred Stock. The Company distributed $24.4 million of common stock dividends during the six months ended June 30, 2021, comprised of $19.3 million in cash and $5.1 million in shares of common stock issued under the DRIP. On June 28, 2021, the Company temporarily suspended the DRIP and as a result, DRIP participants, along with all other holders of the Company’s equity securities, received their second quarter 2021 Company dividends (paid in July) in cash. The DRIP was also temporarily suspended for the March 2020 dividend due to COVID-19 related valuation volatility, but was reactivated for the second quarter 2020 dividend. The Company distributed $21.2 million of common stock dividends during the six months ended June 30, 2020, comprised of $17.7 million in cash and $3.5 million in shares of common stock issued under the DRIP. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had declared but unpaid common stock distributions of $12.2 million and $12.2 million, respectively. Additionally, as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had declared but unpaid Series A Preferred Stock distributions of $2.1 million and $3.3 million, respectively and $0.1 million and $0.1 million of Series C Preferred stock, respectively. Additionally, as of June 30, 2021 the Company had declared but unpaid common stock distributions of $1.7 million of Series D Preferred Stock. These amounts are included in Distributions payable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Share Repurchase Program The Company’s board of directors unanimously approved an amended and restated share repurchase program (the “SRP”), which became effective on February 28, 2016. The SRP enables stockholders to sell their shares to the Company. Subject to certain conditions, stockholders that purchased shares of the Company’s common stock or received their shares from us (directly or indirectly) through one or more non-cash transactions and have held their shares for a period of at least one year may request that the Company repurchase their shares of common stock so long as the repurchase otherwise complies with the provisions of Maryland law. Repurchase requests made following the death or qualifying disability of a stockholder will not be subject to any minimum holding period. The repurchase price per share for SRP repurchases is equal to the lesser of (i) the Company’s most recent estimated per-share NAV, as approved by the Company’s board of directors from time to time, and (ii) the Company’s book value per share, computed in accordance with GAAP, multiplied by a percentage equal to (i) 92.5%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than one year and less than two years; (ii) 95%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than two years and less than three years; (iii) 97.5%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than three years and less than four years; or (iv) 100%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than four years or in the case of requests for death or disability. The Company’s estimated per-share NAV as of June 30, 2021, as determined by the board of directors, is $ 17.88 18.77 Repurchase requests related to death or a qualifying disability must satisfy certain conditions, each of which are assessed by and at the sole discretion of the Company, including the following conditions. In the case of death, the shareholder must be a natural person (or a revocable grantor trust) and the Company must receive a written notice from the estate of the shareholder, the recipient of the shares through bequest or inheritance, or the trustee in the case of a revocable grantor trust. In the case of a “qualifying disability”, the shareholder must be a natural person (or a revocable grantor trust) and the Company must receive a written notice from the shareholder, or the trustee in the case of a revocable grantor trust, that the condition was not pre-existing on the date the shares were acquired. In order for a disability to be considered a “qualifying disability”, the shareholder must receive and provide evidence (the shareholder application and the notice of final determination) of disability based upon a physical or mental condition or impairment made by a government agency responsible for reviewing and determining disability retirement benefits (e.g. the Social Security Administration). Repurchases pursuant to the SRP, when requested, generally will be made semiannually (each six-month period ending June 30 or December 31, a “fiscal semester”). Repurchases for any fiscal semester will be limited to a maximum of 2.5% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the previous fiscal year, with a maximum for any fiscal year of 5.0% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the previous fiscal year. Funding for repurchases pursuant to the SRP for any given fiscal semester will be limited to proceeds received during that same fiscal semester through the issuance of common stock pursuant to any DRIP in effect from time to time, provided that the Company’s board of directors has the power, in its sole discretion, to determine the amount of shares repurchased during any fiscal semester as well as the amount of funds to be used for that purpose. Any repurchase requests received during such fiscal semester will be paid at the price, computed as described above on the last day of such fiscal semester. Due to these limitations, the Company cannot guarantee that the Company will be able to accommodate all repurchase requests made during any fiscal semester or fiscal year. However, a stockholder may withdraw its request at any time or ask that the Company honors the request when funds are available. Pending repurchase requests will be honored on a pro rata basis. The Company will generally pay repurchase proceeds, less any applicable tax or other withholding required by law, by the 31st day following the end of the fiscal semester during which the repurchase request was made. The following table reflects the number of shares repurchased under the SRP cumulatively through June 30, 2021: Number of Requests Number of Shares Repurchased Average Price per Share Cumulative as of December 31, 2020 8,094 4,121,734 $ 19.88 January 1 - January 31, 2021 (1) 1,355 525,580 17.53 February 1 - February 28, 2021 — — N/A March 1 - March 31, 2021 (1) — — N/A April 1 - April 30, 2021 — — N/A May 1 - May 31, 2021 (1) — — N/A June 1 - June 30, 2021 — — N/A Cumulative as of June 30, 2021 9,449 4,647,314 $ 19.61 (1) Reflects shares repurchased pursuant to repurchase requests submitted for the second semester of 2020, including 15,772 and 3,784 shares which for administrative reasons were processed in March 2021 and May 2021, respectively. Pursuant to the terms of the SRP, the Company is only authorized to repurchase up to the amount of proceeds reinvested through our DRIP during the applicable semester. As a result, redemption requests in the amount of 1,881,556 shares were not fulfilled for the second semester of 2020.

As of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had declared but unpaid common stock distributions of $12.2 million and $5.4 million, respectively. Additionally, as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had declared but unpaid distributions of $3.3 million and $1.5 million for Series A Preferred Stock, respectively and $0.1 million and $0.1 million for Series C Preferred Stock, respectively. These amounts are included in Distributions payable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Share Repurchase Program The Company’s board of directors unanimously approved an amended and restated share repurchase program (the “SRP”), which became effective on February 28, 2016. The SRP enables stockholders to sell their shares to the Company. Subject to certain conditions, stockholders that purchased shares of the Company’s common stock or received their shares from us (directly or indirectly) through one or more non-cash transactions and have held their shares for a period of at least one year may request that the Company repurchase their shares of common stock so long as the repurchase otherwise complies with the provisions of Maryland law. Repurchase requests made following the death or qualifying disability of a stockholder will not be subject to any minimum holding period. The repurchase price per share for SRP repurchases is equal to the lesser of (i) the Company’s most recent estimated per-share net asset value (“NAV”), as approved by the Company’s board of directors from time to time, and (ii) the Company’s book value per share, computed in accordance with GAAP, multiplied by a percentage equal to (i) 92.5%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than one year and less than two years; (ii) 95%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than two years and less than three years; (iii) 97.5%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than three years and less than four years; or (iv) 100%, if the person seeking repurchase has held his or her shares for a period greater than four years or in the case of requests for death or disability. The Company’s estimated per-share NAV as of December 31, 2020, as determined by the board of directors, is $ 17.88 17.94 Repurchase requests related to death or a qualifying disability must satisfy certain conditions, each of which are assessed by and at the sole discretion of the Company, including the following conditions. In the case of death, the shareholder must be a natural person (or a revocable grantor trust) and the Company must receive a written notice from the estate of the shareholder, the recipient of the shares through bequest or inheritance, or the trustee in the case of a revocable grantor trust. In the case of a “qualifying disability”, the shareholder must be a natural person (or a revocable grantor trust) and the Company must receive a written notice from the shareholder, or the trustee in the case of a revocable grantor trust, that the condition was not pre-existing on the date the shares were acquired. In order for a disability to be considered a “qualifying disability”, the shareholder must receive and provide evidence (the shareholder application and the notice of final determination) of disability based upon a physical or mental condition or impairment made by a government agency responsible for reviewing and determining disability retirement benefits (e.g. the Social Security Administration). Repurchases pursuant to the SRP, when requested, generally will be made semiannually (each six-month period ending June 30 or December 31, a “fiscal semester”). Repurchases for any fiscal semester will be limited to a maximum of 2.5% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the previous fiscal year, with a maximum for any fiscal year of 5.0% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the previous fiscal year. Funding for repurchases pursuant to the SRP for any given fiscal semester will be limited to proceeds received during that same fiscal semester through the issuance of common stock pursuant to any DRIP in effect from time to time, provided that the Company’s board of directors has the power, in its sole discretion, to determine the amount of shares repurchased during any fiscal semester as well as the amount of funds to be used for that purpose. Any repurchase requests received during such fiscal semester will be paid at the price, computed as described above on the last day of such fiscal semester. Due to these limitations, the Company cannot guarantee that the Company will be able to accommodate all repurchase requests made during any fiscal semester or fiscal year. However, a stockholder may withdraw its request at any time or ask that the Company honors the request when funds are available. Pending repurchase requests will be honored on a pro rata basis. The Company will generally pay repurchase proceeds, less any applicable tax or other withholding required by law, by the 31st day following the end of the fiscal semester during which the repurchase request was made. The following table reflects the number of shares repurchased under the SRP cumulatively through December 31, 2020: Number of Requests Number of Shares Repurchased Average Price per Share Cumulative as of December 31, 2019 5,878 3,542,267 $ 20.23 January 1 - January 31, 2020 (1) 1,170 373,135 18.56 February 1 - February 28, 2020 — — N/A March 1 - March 31, 2020 — — N/A April 1 - April 30, 2020 (1) — — N/A May 1 - May 31, 2020 — — N/A June 1 - June 30, 2020 — — N/A July 1 - July 31, 2020 (2) 1,046 206,332 16.25 August 1 - August 31, 2020 — — N/A September 1 - September 30, 2020 (2) — — N/A October 1 - October 31, 2020 — — N/A November 1 - November 30, 2020 — — N/A December 1 - December 31, 2020 — — N/A Cumulative as of December 31, 2020 8,094 4,121,734 $ 19.88 (1) Reflects shares repurchased pursuant to repurchase requests submitted for the second semester of 2019, including 11,306 shares which for administrative reasons were processed in April 2020. Pursuant to the terms of the SRP, the Company is only authorized to repurchase up to the amount of proceeds reinvested through our DRIP during the applicable semester. As a result, redemption requests in the amount of 1,986,803 shares were not fulfilled for the second semester of 2019. (2) Reflects shares repurchased pursuant to repurchase requests submitted for the first semester of 2020, including 771 shares which for administrative reasons were processed in September 2020.

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Share-Based Compensation	Note 12 - Share-Based Compensation Restricted Share Plan The Company has an employee and director incentive restricted share plan (the “RSP”), which provides the Company with the ability to grant awards of restricted shares to the Company’s directors, officers and employees (if the Company ever has employees), employees of the Advisor and its affiliates, employees of entities that provide services to the Company, directors of the Advisor or of entities that provide services to the Company, the Advisor and its affiliates. The total number of common shares granted under the RSP shall not exceed 5.0% of the Company’s authorized common shares pursuant to the Offering, and in any event, will not exceed 4.0 million shares (as such number may be adjusted for stock splits, stock distributions, combinations and similar events). Restricted share awards entitle the recipient to receive common shares from the Company under terms that provide for vesting over a specified period of time or upon attainment of pre-established performance objectives. Such awards would typically be forfeited with respect to the unvested shares upon the termination of the recipient’s employment or other relationship with the Company. Restricted shares may not, in general, be sold or otherwise transferred until restrictions are removed and the shares have vested. Holders of restricted shares may receive cash distributions prior to the time that the restrictions on the restricted shares have lapsed. Any distributions payable in common shares shall be subject to the same restrictions as the underlying restricted shares. The fair value of the restricted share awards are expensed over the vesting period. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had granted 44,876 restricted shares to its independent directors, of which 5,333 were forfeited and 27,823 have vested, leaving a balance of 11,720 unvested restricted shares. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had granted 34,106 restricted shares to its independent directors, of which 5,333 were forfeited and 20,207 have vested, leaving a balance of 8,566 unvested restricted shares.

Fair Value of Financial Instr_2

Fair Value of Financial Instruments (FY)	6 Months Ended	12 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2021	Dec. 31, 2020
Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	Note 12 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair values. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The three levels of the hierarchy are described below: • Level I - Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. • Level II - Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life. • Level III - Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques. The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the above hierarchy requires significant judgment and factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. The Company has implemented valuation control processes to validate the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value including those derived from pricing models. These control processes are designed to assure that the values used for financial reporting are based on observable inputs wherever possible. In the event that observable inputs are not available, the control processes are designed to assure that the valuation approach utilized is appropriate and consistently applied and the assumptions are reasonable. Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis CMBS, recorded in real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are valued utilizing both observable and unobservable market inputs. These factors include projected future cash flows, ratings, subordination levels, vintage, remaining lives, credit issues, and recent trades of similar real estate securities. Depending upon the significance of the fair value inputs used in determining these fair values, these real estate securities are classified in either Level II or Level III of the fair value hierarchy. The Company obtains third party pricing for determining the fair value of each CMBS investments, resulting in a Level II classification. Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value in the Company’s TRS are initially recorded at transaction proceeds, which are considered to be the best initial estimate of fair value. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value that are originated in the last month of the reporting period are held and marked to the transaction proceeds. The Company classified the commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value as Level III. Other real estate investments, measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are valued using unobservable inputs. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments, including preferred equity investments, held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. The Company classified the other real estate investments, measured at fair value as Level III. The fair value for Treasury note futures is derived using market prices. Treasury note futures trade on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”). The instruments are a variety of recently issued 10-year U.S. Treasury notes. The future contracts are liquid and are centrally cleared through the CME. Treasury note futures are generally categorized in Level I of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value for credit default swaps and interest rate swaps contracts are derived using pricing models that are widely accepted by marketplace participants. Credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are traded in the OTC market. The pricing models take into account multiple inputs including specific contract terms, interest rate yield curves, interest rates, credit curves, recovery rates, and/or current credit spreads obtained from swap counterparties and other market participants. Most inputs into the models are not subjective as they are observable in the marketplace or set per the contract. Valuation is primarily determined by the difference between the contract spread and the current market spread. The contract spread (or rate) is generally fixed and the market spread is determined by the credit risk of the underlying debt or reference entity. If the underlying indices are liquid and the OTC market for the current spread is active, credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy. If the underlying indices are illiquid and the OTC market for the current spread is not active, credit default swaps are categorized in Level III of the fair value hierarchy. The credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are generally categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy. A review of the fair value hierarchy classification is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets or liabilities. The Company’s policy with respect to transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy is to recognize transfers into and out of each level as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no material transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy for the period ended June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The following table presents the Company’s financial instruments carried at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated balance sheets by its level in the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands): Total Level I Level II Level III June 30, 2021 Assets, at fair value Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value $ 77,031 $ — $ — $ 77,031 Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,547 — — 2,547 Interest rate swaps 5 — — — Total assets, at fair value $ 79,583 $ — $ 5 $ 79,578 Liabilities, at fair value Credit default swaps $ 964 $ — $ 964 $ — Interest rate swaps 1,286 — 1,286 — Treasury note futures 35 35 — Total liabilities, at fair value $ 2,285 $ 35 $ 2,250 $ — December 31, 2020 Assets, at fair value Real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair value $ 171,136 $ — $ 171,136 $ — Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value 67,649 — — 67,649 Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,522 — — 2,522 Interest rate swaps 25 — 25 — Total assets, at fair value $ 241,332 $ — $ 171,161 $ 70,171 Liabilities, at fair value Credit default swaps $ 297 $ — $ 297 $ — Treasury note futures 106 106 — — Total liabilities, at fair value $ 403 $ 106 $ 297 $ — Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions that the Company has classified within the Level III category. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for assets and liabilities within the Level III category may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs. The following table summarizes the valuation method and significant unobservable inputs used for the Company’s financial instruments that are categorized within Level III of the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands): Asset Category Fair Value Valuation Methodologies Unobservable Inputs (1) Weighted Average (2) Range June 30, 2021 Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value $ 77,031 Discounted Cash Flow Yield 4.0% 3.2% - 17.6% Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,547 Discounted Cash Flow Yield 12.8% 11.7% - 13.7% December 31, 2020 Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value $ 67,649 Discounted Cash Flow Yield 16.6% 15.6% - 17.6% Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,522 Discounted Cash Flow Yield 13.2% 12.2% - 14.2% (1) In determining certain inputs, the Company evaluates a variety of factors including economic conditions, industry and market developments, market valuations of comparable companies and company specific developments including exit strategies and realization opportunities. The Company has determined that market participants would take these inputs into account when valuing the investments. (2) Inputs were weighted based on the fair value of the investments included in the range. Increases or decreases in any of the above unobservable inputs in isolation would result in a lower or higher fair value measurement for such assets. The following table presents additional information about the Company’s financial instruments which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 for which the Company has used Level III inputs to determine fair value (dollars in thousands): June 30, 2021 Commercial Mortgage Loans, held for sale, measured at fair value Other Real Estate Investments, measured at fair value Beginning balance, January 1, 2021 $ 67,649 $ 2,522 Transfers into Level III (2) — — Total realized and unrealized gain/(loss) included in earnings: Realized gain/(loss) on sale of commercial mortgage loan, held for sale 13,150 — Unrealized gain/(loss) on commercial mortgage loans, held for sale and other real estate investments 1,104 26 Net accretion — (1) ) Purchases 252,145 — Sales / paydowns (257,017) ) — Transfers out of Level III (2) — — Ending Balance, June 30, 2021 $ 77,031 $ 2,547 December 31, 2020 Commercial Mortgage Loans, held for sale, measured at fair value Other Real Estate Investments, measured at fair value Beginning balance, January 1, 2020 $ 112,562 $ 2,557 Transfers into Level III (2) 23,625 — Total realized and unrealized gain/(loss) included in earnings: Realized gain/(loss) on sale of commercial mortgage loan, held for sale 15,931 — Unrealized gain/(loss) on commercial mortgage loans, held for sale and other real estate investments (75) ) (32) ) Net accretion — (3) ) Purchases (1) 267,552 — Sales / paydowns (1) (328,321) ) — Transfers out of Level III (2) (23,625) ) — Ending Balance, December 31, 2020 $ 67,649 $ 2,522 (1) Excluded from Purchases and Sales/paydowns are $679.1 million and $682.0 million, respectively, of loans that collateralize a CMBS investment required to be consolidated in connection with the Company’s retention of the B tranche during the year ended December 31, 2020. Upon disposition of the B tranche during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recognized a gain of $2.8 million that is recorded in Realized gain/loss on sale of real estate securities on the consolidated statements of operations. (2) Transfers in and transfers out include transfers between Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale and Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are measured using observable quoted market prices, or Level I inputs and their carrying value approximates their fair value. The fair value of borrowings under repurchase agreements approximate their carrying value on the consolidated balance sheets due to their short-term nature, and are measured using Level II inputs. Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value The fair values of the Company’s commercial mortgage loans, held for investment and collateralized loan obligations, which are not reported at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are reported below as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands): Level Carrying Amount (1) Fair Value June 30, 2021 Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment (1) Asset III $ 3,126,303 $ 3,150,424 Collateralized loan obligations Liability III 1,960,090 1,981,299 Mortgage note payable Liability III 29,167 29,167 Other financing and loan participation - commercial mortgage loans Liability III 37,105 37,105 December 31, 2020 Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment (1) Asset III $ 2,714,734 $ 2,724,039 Collateralized loan obligation Liability III 1,625,498 1,606,478 Mortgage note payable Liability III 29,167 29,167 Other financing and loan participation - commercial mortgage loans Liability III 31,379 31,379 (1) The carrying value is gross of $17.2 million and $20.9 million of allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The fair value of the commercial mortgage loans, held for investment is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on the Advisor’s experience with similar types of investments. The Company estimates the fair value of the collateralized loan obligations using external broker quotes. The fair value of the other financing and loan participation-commercial mortgage loans is generally estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis. At June 30, 2021, the Mortgage note payable was initially recorded at transaction proceeds, which are considered to be the best initial estimate of fair value.	Note 13 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair values. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The three levels of the hierarchy are described below: • Level I - Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. • Level II - Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life. • Level III - Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques. The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the above hierarchy requires significant judgment and factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. The Company has implemented valuation control processes to validate the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value including those derived from pricing models. These control processes are designed to assure that the values used for financial reporting are based on observable inputs wherever possible. In the event that observable inputs are not available, the control processes are designed to assure that the valuation approach utilized is appropriate and consistently applied and the assumptions are reasonable. Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis CMBS recorded in real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are valued utilizing both observable and unobservable market inputs. These factors include projected future cash flows, ratings, subordination levels, vintage, remaining lives, credit issues, and recent trades of similar real estate securities. Depending upon the significance of the fair value inputs used in determining these fair values, these real estate securities are classified in either Level II or Level III of the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company obtained third party pricing for determining the fair value of each CMBS investment, resulting in a Level II classification. Commercial mortgage loans held-for-sale, measured at fair value in the Company’s TRS are initially recorded at transaction proceeds, which are considered to be the best initial estimate of fair value. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. Commercial mortgage loans held-for-sale, measured at fair value that are originated in the last month of the reporting period are held and marked to the transaction proceeds. The Company classified the commercial mortgage loans held-for-sale, measured at fair value as Level III. Other real estate investments, measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are valued using unobservable inputs. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments, including preferred equity investments, held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. The Company classified the other real estate investments, measured at fair value as Level III. The fair value for Treasury note futures is derived using market prices. Treasury note futures trade on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”). The instruments are a variety of recently issued 10-year U.S. Treasury notes. The future contracts are liquid and are centrally cleared through the CME. Treasury note futures are generally categorized in Level I of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value for credit default swaps and interest rate swaps contracts are derived using pricing models that are widely accepted by marketplace participants. Credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are traded in the OTC market. The pricing models take into account multiple inputs including specific contract terms, interest rate yield curves, interest rates, credit curves, recovery rates, and/or current credit spreads obtained from swap counterparties and other market participants. Most inputs into the models are not subjective as they are observable in the marketplace or set per the contract. Valuation is primarily determined by the difference between the contract spread and the current market spread. The contract spread (or rate) is generally fixed and the market spread is determined by the credit risk of the underlying debt or reference entity. If the underlying indices are liquid and the OTC market for the current spread is active, credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy. If the underlying indices are illiquid and the OTC market for the current spread is not active, credit default swaps are categorized in Level III of the fair value hierarchy. The credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are generally categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy. A review of the fair value hierarchy classification is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets or liabilities. The Company’s policy with respect to transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy is to recognize transfers into and out of each level as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no material transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy during the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The following table presents the Company’s financial instruments carried at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated balance sheets by its level in the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands): December 31, 2020 Total Level I Level II Level III Assets, at fair value Real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair value $ 171,136 $ — $ 171,136 $ — Commercial mortgage loans, held-for-sale, measured at fair value — Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,522 — — 2,522 Interest rate swaps 25 — 25 — Total assets, at fair value $ 241,332 $ — $ 171,161 $ 70,171 Liabilities, at fair value Credit default swaps $ 297 $ — $ 297 $ — Treasury note futures 106 106 — — Total liabilities, at fair value $ 403 $ 106 $ 297 $ — December 31, 2019 Assets, at fair value Real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair value $ 386,316 $ — $ 386,316 $ — Commercial mortgage loans, held-for-sale, measured at fair value 112,562 — — 112,562 Other real estate investments, measured at fair value 2,557 — — 2,557 Credit default swaps 59 — 59 — Interest rate swaps 325 — 325 — Treasury note futures 735 735 — — Total assets, at fair value $ 502,554 $ 735 $ 386,700 $ 115,119 Liabilities, at fair value Credit default swaps $ 1,581 $ — $ 1,581 $ — Total liabilities, at fair value $ 1,581 $ — $ 1,581 $ — Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions that the Company has classified within the Level III category. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for assets and liabilities within the Level III category may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs. The following table summarizes the valuation method and significant unobservable inputs used for the Company’s financial instruments that are categorized within Level III of the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands).

Income Taxes (FY)

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Note 17 - Income Taxes The Company has conducted its operations to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2013. As a REIT, if the Company meets certain organizational and operational requirements and distributes at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income” (determined before the deduction of dividends paid and excluding net capital gains) to its stockholders in a year, it will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent of the income that it distributes. However, even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on income in addition to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. The Company, through its TRS, is indirectly subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. The Company’s TRS is not consolidated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but is instead taxed as a C corporation. For financial reporting purposes, the TRS is consolidated and a provision for current and deferred taxes is established for the portion of earnings recognized by the Company with respect to its interest in its TRS. Total income tax expense (benefit) for the years ended December 31, 2020, December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $(2.1) million, $4.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The Company uses a more-likely-than-not threshold for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or to be taken in a tax return. The Company has assessed its tax positions for all open tax years beginning with December 31, 2017 and concluded that there were no uncertainties to be recognized. The Company’s accounting policy with respect to interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties is to classify these amounts as provision for income taxes. Components of the provision for income taxes consist of the following (dollars in thousands): Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Current expense/(benefit) U.S. Federal $ (2,086 ) $ 4,076 $ 68 State and local 370 397 12 Total current expense/(benefit) $ (1,716 ) $ 4,473 $ 80 Deferred expense/(benefit) U.S. Federal $ — $ 10 $ (1 ) State and local (346 ) — — Total deferred expense/(benefit) $ (346 ) $ 10 $ (1 ) Provision for income tax expense/(benefit) $ (2,062 ) $ 4,483 $ 79 The tax characteristics of the $ 1.30 1.24 0.06 1.24 1.24 390.48 370.93 19.55 370.93 370.93 1.44 1.20 0.24 430.88 35.41 The Company utilizes the TRS to reduce the impact of the prohibited transaction tax and to avoid penalty for the holding of assets not qualifying as real estate assets for purposes of the REIT asset tests. Any income associated with a TRS is fully taxable because the TRS is subject to federal and state income taxes as a domestic C corporation based upon its net income. On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act, among other things, permits NOL carryovers and carrybacks to offset 100% of taxable income for taxable years beginning before 2021. In addition, the CARES Act allows NOLs incurred in 2018, 2019, and 2020 to be carried back to each of the five preceding taxable years to generate a refund of previously paid income taxes. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the CARES Act, and expects to fully utilize the current year NOL under the NOL carryback provision of the CARES Act.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Note 16 - Subsequent Events The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Pending Merger with Capstead Mortgage Corporation As disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 26, 2021, the Company, Rodeo Sub I, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Capstead Mortgage Corporation (“Capstead”) and the Advisor entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) on July 25, 2021. Under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Capstead will merge with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub remaining as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (such transaction, the “Merger”). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding share of common stock of Capstead will be converted into the right to receive: • from the Company, (A) a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the quotient (rounded to the nearest one ten-thousandth) determined by dividing (i) Capstead’s adjusted book value per share by (ii) the Company’s adjusted book value per share (the “Per Share Stock Consideration”), and (B) a cash amount equal to the product of (rounding to the nearest cent) (x) Capstead’s adjusted book value per share multiplied by 15.75%, multiplied by (y) 22.5%, without any interest thereon (the “Per Share Cash Consideration” and together with the Per Share Stock Consideration, the “Per Common Share BSPRT Consideration”); and • from the Advisor, a cash amount equal to the product of (rounding to the nearest cent) (A) Capstead’s adjusted book value per share multiplied by 15.75%, multiplied by (B) 77.5%, without any interest thereon (the “Advisor Cash Consideration” and together with the Per Common Share BSPRT Consideration, the “Total Per Common Share Consideration”). Capstead’s outstanding equity awards under its equity compensation plans will also be converted into the right to receive the Total Per Common Share Consideration. In addition, each outstanding share of Capstead’s 7.50% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, $0.10 par value per share, will be converted into the right to receive one newly-issued 7.50% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (the “BSPRT Series E Preferred Stock”) (the “Preferred Merger Consideration” and, together with the Per Common Share BSPRT Consideration, the “Total BSPRT Merger Consideration”). Cash will be paid in lieu of any fractional shares of the Company’s common stock that would otherwise have been received as a result of the Merger. Adjusted book value per share equals the respective company’s total consolidated common stockholders’ equity, less, in the case of the Company, the aggregate Per Share Cash Consideration, divided by each respective company’s common stock issued and outstanding (excluding, in the case of Capstead, any cancelled shares), plus, in the case of Capstead, any shares of its common stock issuable upon the conversion of outstanding performance units, after giving pro forma effect to any additional dividends or other distributions on shares of the respective company’s common stock that are declared or are anticipated to be declared for which the record date is or will be prior to the Effective Time. Under the Merger Agreement, each of Capstead and the Company will pay a special dividend to their respective stockholders in cash on the last business day prior to the closing of the Merger, with a record date that is three business days before the payment date. The obligation of each party to consummate the Merger is subject to a number of conditions, including, among others, the approval of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement by Capstead’s stockholders and the registration and listing on the New York Stock Exchange of the shares of the Company’s common stock and BSPRT Series E Preferred Stock that will be issued in connection with the Merger. Each of the parties to the Merger Agreement has made certain customary representations, warranties and covenants, among other things the Merger Agreement provides that each of Capstead and the Company will, until the Effective Time, operate their respective businesses in all material respects in the ordinary course and consistent with practice, and preserve substantially intact its current business organization and preserve key business relationships. Each of Capstead and the Company are subject to restrictions as specified in the Merger Agreement on certain actions each company may take prior to the Effective Time, including, among other things, actions related to amending organizational documents, declaring dividends, issuing or repurchasing capital stock, engaging in certain business transactions and incurring indebtedness. Recapitalization In addition, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company has agreed to take necessary corporate actions such that, prior to the consummation of the Merger, the Company will effect a one-for-ten reverse stock split of its common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, each outstanding share of the Company’s Common Stock as of a date to be specified will automatically combine into 1\10 Following the Reverse Stock Split, as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Company has also agreed to effect a stock dividend on the Class A Common Stock (the “Stock Dividend”, and together with the Reverse Stock Split, the “Recapitalization”) wherein the Company will distribute nine shares of a newly designated series of Class B common stock of the Company (“Class B Common Stock”) to each holder of Class A Common Stock as of the record date to be specified by the Company’s board of directors. The Class B Common Stock will be identical to the Class A Common Stock except that the Class B Common Stock will convert, on a one-for-one basis, into shares of Class A Common Stock 180 days following the listing of the Class A Common Stock on the NYSE. The Class B Common Stock will not be listed on the NYSE, and therefore holders of Class B Common Stock will not be able to sell their shares of Class B Common Stock on the NYSE until the automatic conversion of such Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock 180 days after the listing of the Class A Common Stock. The Recapitalization will result in each stockholder of the Company’s common stock as of a date to be specified prior to the closing of the Merger having the same economic value of equity securities in the Company as such holder did prior to the Recapitalization, except that each such holder will have 10% of their holdings in Class A Common Stock and 90% of their holdings in Class B Common Stock.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Accounting	Basis of Accounting The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X, as appropriate. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements may not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual consolidated financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of, and for the year ended December 31, 2020, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 11, 2021.	Basis of Accounting The Company’s consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-K and Regulation S-X, as appropriate. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current presentation. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented have been included. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results in any subsequent reporting period.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. In the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments, of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the entire year or any subsequent interim periods. In response to the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, numerous countries, including the U.S., have declared national emergencies with respect to COVID-19 and certain jurisdictions, including those where our corporate headquarters and/or properties that secure our investments, or properties that the Company owns, are located, have at times imposed “stay-at-home” guidelines or orders or other restrictions to help prevent its spread. The effects of COVID-19 may negatively and materially impact significant estimates and assumptions used by the Company including, but not limited to estimates of expected credit losses, valuation of our equity investments and the fair value estimates of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the other partners or members, as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company has determined the OP is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held by the OP. The Company consolidates all entities that it controls through either majority ownership or voting rights. In addition, the Company consolidates all VIEs of which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. VIEs are entities in which equity investors (i) do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and/or (ii) do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The entity that consolidates a VIE is its primary beneficiary and is generally the entity with (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) issued and securitized by wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The Company has determined the CLOs are VIEs of which the Company’s subsidiary is the primary beneficiary. The assets and liabilities of the CLOs are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation.

Acquisition Expenses	Acquisition Expenses The Company capitalizes certain direct costs relating to loan origination activities. The cost is amortized over the life of the loan and recognized in interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Acquisition expenses paid on future funding amounts are expensed within the acquisition expenses line in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Commercial Mortgage Loans	Commercial Mortgage Loans Held for Investment - Held for Sale - Held for Sale, Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option -	Commercial Mortgage Loans Held for Investment - Held-for-Sale - Held-for-Sale, Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option - Real estate owned Real estate owned (“REO”) assets represent real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or purchase. REO assets are carried at their estimated fair value at acquisition and are presented net of accumulated depreciation and impairment charges. The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired real estate assets based on the fair value of the acquired assets such as land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment. Asset acquisitions in which monetary consideration is given generally includes the transaction costs of the asset acquisition. Acquiring assets in groups requires not only ascertaining the cost of the asset (or net asset) group but also allocating that cost to the individual assets (or individual assets and liabilities) that make up the group. The cost of a group of assets acquired in an asset acquisition shall be allocated to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values and shall not give rise to goodwill. Real estate owned assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings and improvements and up to 15 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Renovations and/or replacements that improve or extend the life of the real estate owned assets are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Real estate owned revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer. The Company is considered to have satisfied all performance obligations at a point in time. Real estate owned assets that are probable to be sold within one year are reported as held-for-sale. Real estate owned assets classified as held-for-sale shall be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Real estate owned assets shall not be depreciated or amortized while it is classified as held-for-sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal group classified as held-for-sale shall continue to be accrued. Upon the disposition of a real estate owned asset, the Company calculates realized gains and losses as net proceeds received less the carrying value of the real estate owned asset. Net proceeds received are net of direct selling costs associated with the disposition of the real estate owned asset. Leases Operating right of use assets “ROU” represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. Leases will be classified as either a finance or operating lease, with such classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the consolidated statements of operations. For leases greater than 12 months, the Company determines, at the inception of the contract, if the arrangement meets the classification criteria for an operating or finance lease. For leases that have extension options, which can be exercised at the Company’s discretion, management uses judgment to determine if it is reasonably certain that such extension options will be elected. If the extension options are reasonably certain to occur, the Company includes the extended term’s lease payments in the calculation of the respective lease liability. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The incremental borrowing rate used to discount the lease liability is determined at commencement of the lease, or upon modification of the lease, as the interest rate a lessee would have to pay to borrow on a fully collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate considers information at both the corporate and property level and analysis of current market conditions for obtaining new financings. All leases as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were operating leases. Separately, on October 15, 2019, the Company acquired certain real estate assets which had an existing in-place lease asset. This in-place lease asset is recorded as an Intangible lease asset on the consolidated balance sheets and amortized using the straight-line method over the contractual life of the lease.

All leases as of June 30, 2021 were operating leases. Separately, on October 15, 2019, the Company acquired certain real estate assets which had an existing in-place lease asset. This in-place lease asset is recorded as an Intangible lease asset on the consolidated balance sheets and amortized using the straight-line method over the contractual life of the lease.
Credit Losses	Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which amends the credit impairment model for financial instruments. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. The allowance for credit losses required under ASU 2016-13 is deducted from the respective loans’ amortized cost basis on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for credit losses attributed to unfunded loan commitments is included in Accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets. The guidance also required a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the reporting period of adoption. The following discussion highlights changes to the Company’s accounting policies as a result of this adoption. Allowance for credit losses The allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments carried at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loans held for investment and unfunded loan commitments represents a lifetime estimate of expected credit losses. Factors considered by the Company when determining the allowance for credit losses reserve include loan-specific characteristics such as loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio, vintage year, loan term, property type, occupancy and geographic location, financial performance of the borrower, expected payments of principal and interest, as well as internal or external information relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist for multiple financial instruments. If similar risk characteristics do not exist, the Company measures the allowance for credit losses on an individual instrument basis. The determination of whether a particular financial instrument should be included in a pool can change over time. If a financial asset’s risk characteristics change, the Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to continue to keep the financial instrument in its existing pool or evaluate it individually. In measuring the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments including our unfunded loan commitments that share similar risk characteristics, the Company primarily applies a probability of default (“PD”)/loss given default (“LGD”) model for instruments that are collectively assessed, whereby the allowance for credit losses is calculated as the product of PD, LGD and exposure at default (“EAD”). The Company’s model principally utilizes historical loss rates derived from a commercial mortgage backed securities database with historical losses from 1998 to 2020 provided by a reputable third party, forecasting the loss parameters using a scenario-based statistical approach over a reasonable and supportable forecast period of twelve months, followed by an immediate reversion to average historical losses. For financial instruments assessed on an individual basis, including when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the full payment of principal and interest on the instrument, the Company applies a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology. For financial instruments where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty based on the Company’s assessment at the reporting date and the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the Company may elect to use as a practical expedient the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date when determining the allowance for credit losses. In developing the allowance for credit losses for its loans held for investment, the Company performs a comprehensive analysis of its loan portfolio and assigns risk ratings to loans that incorporate management’s current judgments about their credit quality based on all known and relevant internal and external factors that may affect collectability, using similar factors as those in developing the allowance for credit losses. This methodology results in loans being segmented by risk classification into risk rating categories that are associated with estimated probabilities of default and principal loss. Risk rating categories range from “1” to “5” with “1” representing the lowest risk of loss and “5” representing the highest risk of loss with the ratings updated quarterly. At the time of origination or purchase, loans held for investment are ranked as a “2” and will move accordingly going forward based on the ratings which are defined as follows: 1. Very Low Risk- 2. Low Risk- 3. Average Risk- 4. High Risk/Delinquent/Potential for Loss- 5. Impaired/Defaulted/Loss Likely- The Company also considers qualitative and environmental factors, including, but not limited to, economic and business conditions, nature and volume of the loan portfolio, lending terms, volume and severity of past due loans, concentration of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations in its determination of the allowance for credit losses. Changes in the allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments are recorded in Provision/(benefit) for credit losses on the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding offset to the financial instrument’s amortized cost recorded on the consolidated balance sheets, or as a component of Accounts payable and accrued expenses for unfunded loan commitments. The Company has elected to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivable as it is timely, following three months time, reversed against interest income when a loan, real estate security or preferred equity investment is placed on nonaccrual status. The Company did not record reversals of accrued interest receivable during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Loans are charged off against the Provision/(benefit) for credit losses when all or a portion of the principal amount is determined to be uncollectible. Past due and nonaccrual status Loans are placed on nonaccrual status and considered non-performing when full payment of principal and interest is unpaid for 90 days or more or where reasonable doubt exists as to timely collection, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Interest received on nonaccrual status loans are accounted for under the cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Upon restructuring the nonaccrual loan, the Company may return a loan to accrual status when repayment of principal and interest is reasonably assured. Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”) The Company classifies an individual financial instrument as a TDR when it has a reasonable expectation that the financial instrument’s contractual terms will be modified in a manner that grants concession to the borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions could include term extensions, payment deferrals, interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, forbearance, or other actions designed to maximize the Company’s collection on the financial instrument. The Company determines the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments that are TDRs individually.	Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which amends the credit impairment model for financial instruments. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. Following our adoption of ASU 2016-13, our previous incurred loss model was replaced with a lifetime current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model for financial instruments carried at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loans, loan commitments, held-to-maturity (“HTM”) debt securities, financial guarantees, net investments in leases, reinsurance and trade receivables, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowance for losses. For available for sale (“AFS”) debt securities, unrealized credit losses are recognized as allowances rather than reductions in amortized cost basis and elimination of the other than temporary impairment concept will result in more frequent estimation of credit losses. The accounting model for purchased credit impaired loans and debt securities has been simplified, including elimination of some of the asymmetrical treatment between credit losses and credit recoveries, to be consistent with the CECL model for originated and purchased non-credit impaired assets. The adopted model for ASC 326 as it applies to HTM and AFS securities, encompassing the beneficial interest model for securities that are not of high credit quality, has been clarified to include the effective interest method as a basis for the projection of cash collections method in connection with the newly adopted impairment models for HTM and AFS debt securities under ASC 326 when securities are not of high credit quality. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, the Company recorded an additional allowance for credit losses for our outstanding loans and unfunded loan commitments of $7.8 million, or $ 0.18 0.27% Pre-adoption Transition Adjustment Post-adjustment Assets Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment, net of allowance $ 2,762,042 $ (7,211 ) $ 2,754,831 Liabilities Accounts payable and accrued expenses (1) 10,925 (550 ) 10,375 Equity Accumulated deficit $ (85,968 ) $ (7,761 ) $ (93,729 ) (1) Includes allowance associated with unfunded loan commitment. The following discussion highlights changes to the Company’s accounting policies as a result of this adoption. Allowance for credit losses The allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments carried at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loans held for investment and unfunded loan commitments represents a lifetime estimate of expected credit losses. Factors considered by the Company when determining the allowance for credit losses reserve include loan-specific characteristics such as loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio, vintage year, loan term, property type, occupancy and geographic location, financial performance of the borrower, expected payments of principal and interest, as well as internal or external information relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist for multiple financial instruments. If similar risk characteristics do not exist, the Company measures the allowance for credit losses on an individual instrument basis. The determination of whether a particular financial instrument should be included in a pool can change over time. If a financial asset’s risk characteristics change, the Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to continue to keep the financial instrument in its existing pool or evaluate it individually. In measuring the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments including our unfunded loan commitments that share similar risk characteristics, the Company primarily applies a probability of default (“PD”)/loss given default (“LGD”) model for instruments that are collectively assessed, whereby the allowance for credit losses is calculated as the product of PD, LGD and exposure at default (“EAD”). The Company’s model principally utilizes historical loss rates derived from a commercial mortgage backed securities database with historical losses from 1998 to 2020 provided by a reputable third party, forecasting the loss parameters using a scenario-based statistical approach over a reasonable and supportable forecast period of twelve months, followed by an immediate reversion to average historical losses. For financial instruments assessed on an individual basis, including when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the full payment of principal and interest on the instrument, the Company applies a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology. For financial instruments where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty based on the Company’s assessment at the reporting date and the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the Company may elect to use as a practical expedient the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date when determining the allowance for credit losses.

Real Estate Securities	Real Estate Securities On the acquisition date, all of the Company’s commercial real estate securities were classified as available for sale and carried at fair value, and subsequently any unrealized gains or losses are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The Company may elect the fair value option for its real estate securities, and as a result, any unrealized gains or losses on such real estate securities will be recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. No such election has been made to date. Related discounts, premiums and acquisition expenses on investments are amortized over the life of the investment using the effective interest method. Amortization is reflected as an adjustment to interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company uses the specific identification method in determining the cost relief for real estate securities sold. Realized gains and losses from the sale of real estate securities are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. AFS real estate securities which have experienced a decline in the fair value below their amortized cost basis (i.e., impairment) are evaluated each reporting period to determine whether the decline in fair value is due to credit-related factors. Any impairment that is not credit-related is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, while credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance on the consolidated balance sheets with a corresponding adjustment on the consolidated statements of operations. If the Company intends to sell an impaired real estate security or more likely than not will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis. The Company analyzes the AFS security portfolio on a periodic basis for credit losses at the individual security level using the same criteria described above for those amortized cost financial assets subject to an allowance for credit losses including but not limited to; performance of the underlying assets in the security, borrower financial resources and investment in collateral, collateral type, credit ratings, project economics and geographic location as well as national and regional economic factors. The non-credit loss component of the unrealized loss within the Company’s AFS portfolio is recognized as an adjustment to the individual security’s asset balance with an offsetting entry to accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheets.

Repurchase Agreements	Repurchase Agreements Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities sold under repurchase agreements have been treated as collateralized financing transactions because the Company maintains effective control over the transferred securities. Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities financed through a repurchase agreement remain on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as an asset and cash received from the purchaser is recorded as a liability. Interest paid in accordance with repurchase agreements is recorded in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Deferred Financing Cost	Deferred Financing Costs The deferred financing costs related to the Company’s various Master Repurchase Agreements as well as certain prepaid subscription costs are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing cost on the Company’s collateralized loan obligations (“CLO”) are netted against the Company’s CLO payable in the Collateralized loan obligations on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing costs are amortized over the terms of the respective financing agreement using the effective interest method and included in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Unamortized deferred financing costs are generally expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity.

Share Repurchase Program	Share Repurchase Program The Company has a Share Repurchase Program (the “SRP”) that enables stockholders to sell their shares to the Company, subject to certain conditions. Refer to Note 9 - Stock Transactions for a description of the SRP. When a stockholder requests a redemption and the redemption is approved by the board of directors, the Company will reclassify such obligation from equity to a liability based on the settlement value of the obligation. Shares repurchased under the SRP will have the status of authorized but unissued shares.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan	Distribution Reinvestment Plan Pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) stockholders may elect to reinvest distributions by purchasing shares of common stock in lieu of receiving cash. No dealer manager fees or selling commissions are paid with respect to shares purchased pursuant to the DRIP. The purchase price for shares purchased through the DRIP is the lesser of (i) the Company’s most recent estimated per share net asset value (“NAV”), and (ii) the Company’s most recently disclosed GAAP book value per share. There is no market for our common stock. The board of directors may designate that certain cash or other distributions be excluded from the DRIP. The Company has the right to amend any aspect of the DRIP or terminate the DRIP with ten days’ notice to participants. Shares issued under the DRIP are recorded to equity in the consolidated balance sheets in the period distributions are declared.

Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Company has conducted its operations to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2013. As a REIT, if the Company meets certain organizational and operational requirements and distributes at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income” (determined before the deduction of dividends paid and excluding net capital gains) to its stockholders in a year, it will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent of the income that it distributes. However, even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on income in addition to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. The Company, through its TRS, is indirectly subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. The Company’s TRS is not consolidated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but is instead taxed as a C corporation. For financial reporting purposes, the TRS is consolidated and a provision for current and deferred taxes is established for the portion of earnings recognized by the Company with respect to its interest in its TRS. Total income tax provision/(benefit) for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 was $0.3 million and $(0.7) million, respectively. Total income tax provision/(benefit) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 was $2.3 million and $(2.6) million, respectively. The Company uses a more-likely-than-not threshold for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or to be taken in a tax return. The Company has assessed its tax positions for all open tax years beginning with December 31, 2017 and concluded that there were no uncertainties to be recognized. The Company’s accounting policy with respect to interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties is to classify these amounts as provision for income taxes. The Company utilizes the TRS to reduce the impact of the prohibited transaction tax and to avoid penalty for the holding of assets not qualifying as real estate assets for purposes of the REIT asset tests. Any income associated with a TRS is fully taxable because the TRS is subject to federal and state income taxes as a domestic C corporation based upon its net income.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities	Derivatives and Hedging Activities In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effect of interest rate changes and may undertake a strategy to limit these risks through the use of derivatives. The Company uses derivatives primarily to economically hedge against interest rates, CMBS spreads and macro market risk in order to minimize volatility. The Company may use a variety of derivative instruments that are considered conventional, including but not limited to: Treasury note futures and credit derivatives on various indices including CMBX and CDX. The Company recognizes all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The Company does not designate derivatives as hedges to qualify for hedge accounting for financial reporting purposes and therefore any net payments under, or fluctuations in the fair value of these derivatives have been recognized currently in unrealized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company records derivative asset and liability positions on a gross basis with any collateral posted with or received from counterparties recorded separately within Restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Certain derivatives that the Company has entered into are subject to master netting agreements with its counterparties, allowing for netting of the same transaction, in the same currency, on the same date.

Per Share Data	Per Share Data The Company’s Preferred Stock is considered a participating security and the Company calculates basic earnings per share using the two-class method. The Company’s dilutive earnings per share calculation is computed using the more dilutive result of the treasury stock method, assuming the participating security is a potential common share, or the two-class method, assuming the participating security is not converted. The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing net income applicable to common stock for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for that period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from shares outstanding if potential shares of common stock with a dilutive effect have been issued in connection with the restricted stock plan or upon conversion of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock, except when doing so would be anti-dilutive.

Reportable Segments	Reportable Segments The Company has determined that it has four reportable segments based on how the chief operating decision maker reviews and manages the business. The four reporting segments are as follows: • The real estate debt business which is focused on originating, acquiring and asset managing commercial real estate debt investments, including first mortgage loans, subordinate mortgages, mezzanine loans and participations in such loans. • The real estate securities business which is focused on investing in and asset managing commercial real estate securities primarily consisting of CMBS and may include unsecured REIT debt, CDO notes and other securities. • The commercial conduit business in the Company’s TRS, which is focused on originating and subsequently selling fixed-rate commercial real estate loans into the CMBS securitization market. • The real estate owned business represents real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or purchase. See Note 15 - Segment Reporting for further information regarding the Company’s segments.

Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock	Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock The Company’s outstanding Preferred Stock is classified outside of permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheets. Subject to certain conditions, the outstanding Preferred Stock is redeemable at the option of the holders of the Preferred Stock, outside of the control of the Company. Series A Preferred Stock The Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), and on parity with all other outstanding classes of preferred stock of the Company (including the Series C and Series D Preferred Stock) with respect to priority in dividends and in the distribution of assets in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company. The liquidation preference of each share of Series A Preferred Stock is the greater of (i) $5,000 plus accrued and unpaid dividends, and (ii) the amount that would be received upon a conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock. Dividends are on the Series A Preferred Stock, which are typically declared and paid quarterly, accrue at a rate equal to the greater of (i) an annual amount equal to 4.0% of the liquidation preference per share (subject to a 1.0% increase in the event of the ratings for the Series A Preferred Stock decreases below a certain threshold) and (ii) the dividends that would have been paid had such share of Series A Preferred Stock been converted into a share of Common Stock on the first day of such quarter, subject to proration in the event the share of Series A Preferred Stock is not outstanding for the full quarter. Dividends are paid in arrears. Dividends will accumulate and be cumulative from the most recent date to which dividends had been paid. Immediately prior to a “Liquidity Event,” each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock shall convert into 299.2 If there has not been a Liquidity Event by June 25, 2024 (six years from the initial issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock), each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to require the Company to redeem its Series A Preferred Stock for cash at the liquidation preference, or such holder may convert all, but not less than all, of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder into Common Stock at the Conversion Rate. In the event of the sale of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company (by sale, merger, consolidation or otherwise) or the acquisition by any person of more than 50% of the total economic interests or voting power of all securities of the Company (a “Company Change of Control”), other than a Liquidity Event, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock will have the right, prior to consummation of such transaction, to convert its Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock at the Conversion Rate. In addition, in the event of a change of control of the Advisor (as defined in the Articles Supplementary) or a Company Change of Control that is not a Liquidity Event and that is related to the removal of the Advisor, both the Company and the holder shall have the right, prior to consummation of the transaction, to require the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock for the liquidation preference. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock (voting as a single class with holders of Common Stock and other classes of voting Preferred Stock) are entitled to vote on each matter submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company upon which the holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote. The number of votes applicable to a share of outstanding Series A Preferred Stock will be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock a share of Series A Preferred Stock could have been converted into as of the record date set for purposes of such stockholder vote (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock). In addition, the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock is required to approve the issuance of any equity securities senior to the Series A Preferred Stock and to take certain actions materially adverse to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock. Series C Preferred Stock The Series C Preferred Stock is on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to preference on liquidation and dividend rights. Except as set forth below, the terms of the Series C Preferred Stock are substantially the same as the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock: • The Series C Preferred Stock is not rated and its dividend rate is not impacted by changes in ratings. • The are no anti-dilution adjustments to the Conversion Price based on share issuances at below GAAP book value. • The Series C Preferred Stock will not immediately convert upon a Liquidation Event; the mandatory conversion will occur on the one-year anniversary of the Liquidity Event. The Company has the option to accelerate the mandatory conversion date to a date no earlier than six months after the Liquidity Event upon 10 days’ notice to the holders. • A Company Change of Control that is also a Liquidity Event will trigger the Change of Control redemption right. • The optional conversion and redemption provisions are effective on and after on October 18, 2025 (rather than June 25, 2024). • With respect to voting rights on issuance of any equity securities senior to the Series C Preferred Stock and certain other actions materially adverse to the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Series C Preferred Stock holders will vote as a single class with other parity Preferred Stock (except the Series A Preferred Stock). Series D Preferred Stock The Series D Preferred Stock is on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock with respect to preference on liquidation and dividend rights. The terms of the Series D Preferred Stock are substantially the same as the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock, except that the Series D Preferred Stock will not immediately convert upon a Liquidation Event; the mandatory conversion will occur on the one-year anniversary of the Liquidity Event. The holders have the option to accelerate the mandatory conversion date to a date no earlier than six months after the Liquidity Event. The complete terms of the Company’s Preferred Stock are set forth in the Articles Supplementary applicable to each class, which have been filed as exhibits to the Company’s periodic reports filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.	Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock The Company’s outstanding Preferred Stock is classified outside of permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheets. Subject to certain conditions, the outstanding Preferred Stock is redeemable at the option of the holders of the Preferred Stock, outside of the control of the Company. As set forth in the Articles Supplementary relating to each of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Articles Supplementary”) to the Company’s Articles of Amendment and Restatement, the Preferred Stock is redeemable for shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) at the option of the holder upon a change of control (as defined in the Articles Supplementary) or after the sixth anniversary of the date of issuance. A change in control of the Company occurs if any person acquires more than 50% of the total economic interests or voting power of all securities of the Company, other than in a liquidity event. Shares of Preferred Stock rank senior to shares of Common Stock with respect to rights to receive dividends and to participate in distributions or payments upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. Dividends payable on each share of outstanding Preferred Stock will be equal to the greater of (i) an amount equal to $ 16.67 Immediately prior to a “Liquidity Event,” each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock shall convert into 299.2 Holders of the outstanding Preferred Stock are entitled to vote on each matter submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company upon which the holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote, upon which the holders of the Preferred Stock and holders of the Common Stock shall vote together as a single class. The number of votes applicable to a share of outstanding Preferred Stock will be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock a share of Preferred Stock could have been converted into as of the record date set for purposes of such stockholder vote (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock). In addition, the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock is required to approve the issuance of any equity securities senior to the Preferred Stock and to take certain actions materially adverse to the holders of the Preferred Stock.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments	GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair values. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The three levels of the hierarchy are described below: • Level I - Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. • Level II - Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life. • Level III - Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques. The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the above hierarchy requires significant judgment and factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. The Company has implemented valuation control processes to validate the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value including those derived from pricing models. These control processes are designed to assure that the values used for financial reporting are based on observable inputs wherever possible. In the event that observable inputs are not available, the control processes are designed to assure that the valuation approach utilized is appropriate and consistently applied and the assumptions are reasonable. Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis CMBS, recorded in real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are valued utilizing both observable and unobservable market inputs. These factors include projected future cash flows, ratings, subordination levels, vintage, remaining lives, credit issues, and recent trades of similar real estate securities. Depending upon the significance of the fair value inputs used in determining these fair values, these real estate securities are classified in either Level II or Level III of the fair value hierarchy. The Company obtains third party pricing for determining the fair value of each CMBS investments, resulting in a Level II classification. Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value in the Company’s TRS are initially recorded at transaction proceeds, which are considered to be the best initial estimate of fair value. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value that are originated in the last month of the reporting period are held and marked to the transaction proceeds. The Company classified the commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value as Level III. Other real estate investments, measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are valued using unobservable inputs. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments, including preferred equity investments, held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. The Company classified the other real estate investments, measured at fair value as Level III. The fair value for Treasury note futures is derived using market prices. Treasury note futures trade on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”). The instruments are a variety of recently issued 10-year U.S. Treasury notes. The future contracts are liquid and are centrally cleared through the CME. Treasury note futures are generally categorized in Level I of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value for credit default swaps and interest rate swaps contracts are derived using pricing models that are widely accepted by marketplace participants. Credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are traded in the OTC market. The pricing models take into account multiple inputs including specific contract terms, interest rate yield curves, interest rates, credit curves, recovery rates, and/or current credit spreads obtained from swap counterparties and other market participants. Most inputs into the models are not subjective as they are observable in the marketplace or set per the contract. Valuation is primarily determined by the difference between the contract spread and the current market spread. The contract spread (or rate) is generally fixed and the market spread is determined by the credit risk of the underlying debt or reference entity. If the underlying indices are liquid and the OTC market for the current spread is active, credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy. If the underlying indices are illiquid and the OTC market for the current spread is not active, credit default swaps are categorized in Level III of the fair value hierarchy. The credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are generally categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy. A review of the fair value hierarchy classification is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets or liabilities. The Company’s policy with respect to transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy is to recognize transfers into and out of each level as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no material transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy for the period ended June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Accounting	Basis of Accounting The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X, as appropriate. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements may not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual consolidated financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of, and for the year ended December 31, 2020, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 11, 2021.	Basis of Accounting The Company’s consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-K and Regulation S-X, as appropriate. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current presentation. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented have been included. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results in any subsequent reporting period.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. In the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments, of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the entire year or any subsequent interim periods. In response to the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, numerous countries, including the U.S., have declared national emergencies with respect to COVID-19 and certain jurisdictions, including those where our corporate headquarters and/or properties that secure our investments, or properties that the Company owns, are located, have at times imposed “stay-at-home” guidelines or orders or other restrictions to help prevent its spread. The effects of COVID-19 may negatively and materially impact significant estimates and assumptions used by the Company including, but not limited to estimates of expected credit losses, valuation of our equity investments and the fair value estimates of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OP and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the other partners or members, as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company has determined the OP is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held by the OP. The Company consolidates all entities that it controls through either majority ownership or voting rights. In addition, the Company consolidates all VIEs of which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. VIEs are entities in which equity investors (i) do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and/or (ii) do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The entity that consolidates a VIE is its primary beneficiary and is generally the entity with (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) issued and securitized by wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The Company has determined the CLOs are VIEs of which the Company’s subsidiary is the primary beneficiary. The assets and liabilities of the CLOs are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation.

Acquisition Expenses	Acquisition Expenses The Company capitalizes certain direct costs relating to loan origination activities. The cost is amortized over the life of the loan and recognized in interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Acquisition expenses paid on future funding amounts are expensed within the acquisition expenses line in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Commercial Mortgage Loans	Commercial Mortgage Loans Held for Investment - Held for Sale - Held for Sale, Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option -	Commercial Mortgage Loans Held for Investment - Held-for-Sale - Held-for-Sale, Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option - Real estate owned Real estate owned (“REO”) assets represent real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or purchase. REO assets are carried at their estimated fair value at acquisition and are presented net of accumulated depreciation and impairment charges. The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired real estate assets based on the fair value of the acquired assets such as land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment. Asset acquisitions in which monetary consideration is given generally includes the transaction costs of the asset acquisition. Acquiring assets in groups requires not only ascertaining the cost of the asset (or net asset) group but also allocating that cost to the individual assets (or individual assets and liabilities) that make up the group. The cost of a group of assets acquired in an asset acquisition shall be allocated to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values and shall not give rise to goodwill. Real estate owned assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings and improvements and up to 15 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Renovations and/or replacements that improve or extend the life of the real estate owned assets are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Real estate owned revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer. The Company is considered to have satisfied all performance obligations at a point in time. Real estate owned assets that are probable to be sold within one year are reported as held-for-sale. Real estate owned assets classified as held-for-sale shall be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Real estate owned assets shall not be depreciated or amortized while it is classified as held-for-sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal group classified as held-for-sale shall continue to be accrued. Upon the disposition of a real estate owned asset, the Company calculates realized gains and losses as net proceeds received less the carrying value of the real estate owned asset. Net proceeds received are net of direct selling costs associated with the disposition of the real estate owned asset. Leases Operating right of use assets “ROU” represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. Leases will be classified as either a finance or operating lease, with such classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the consolidated statements of operations. For leases greater than 12 months, the Company determines, at the inception of the contract, if the arrangement meets the classification criteria for an operating or finance lease. For leases that have extension options, which can be exercised at the Company’s discretion, management uses judgment to determine if it is reasonably certain that such extension options will be elected. If the extension options are reasonably certain to occur, the Company includes the extended term’s lease payments in the calculation of the respective lease liability. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The incremental borrowing rate used to discount the lease liability is determined at commencement of the lease, or upon modification of the lease, as the interest rate a lessee would have to pay to borrow on a fully collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate considers information at both the corporate and property level and analysis of current market conditions for obtaining new financings. All leases as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were operating leases. Separately, on October 15, 2019, the Company acquired certain real estate assets which had an existing in-place lease asset. This in-place lease asset is recorded as an Intangible lease asset on the consolidated balance sheets and amortized using the straight-line method over the contractual life of the lease.
Credit Losses	Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which amends the credit impairment model for financial instruments. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. The allowance for credit losses required under ASU 2016-13 is deducted from the respective loans’ amortized cost basis on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for credit losses attributed to unfunded loan commitments is included in Accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets. The guidance also required a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the reporting period of adoption. The following discussion highlights changes to the Company’s accounting policies as a result of this adoption. Allowance for credit losses The allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments carried at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loans held for investment and unfunded loan commitments represents a lifetime estimate of expected credit losses. Factors considered by the Company when determining the allowance for credit losses reserve include loan-specific characteristics such as loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio, vintage year, loan term, property type, occupancy and geographic location, financial performance of the borrower, expected payments of principal and interest, as well as internal or external information relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist for multiple financial instruments. If similar risk characteristics do not exist, the Company measures the allowance for credit losses on an individual instrument basis. The determination of whether a particular financial instrument should be included in a pool can change over time. If a financial asset’s risk characteristics change, the Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to continue to keep the financial instrument in its existing pool or evaluate it individually. In measuring the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments including our unfunded loan commitments that share similar risk characteristics, the Company primarily applies a probability of default (“PD”)/loss given default (“LGD”) model for instruments that are collectively assessed, whereby the allowance for credit losses is calculated as the product of PD, LGD and exposure at default (“EAD”). The Company’s model principally utilizes historical loss rates derived from a commercial mortgage backed securities database with historical losses from 1998 to 2020 provided by a reputable third party, forecasting the loss parameters using a scenario-based statistical approach over a reasonable and supportable forecast period of twelve months, followed by an immediate reversion to average historical losses. For financial instruments assessed on an individual basis, including when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the full payment of principal and interest on the instrument, the Company applies a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology. For financial instruments where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty based on the Company’s assessment at the reporting date and the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the Company may elect to use as a practical expedient the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date when determining the allowance for credit losses. In developing the allowance for credit losses for its loans held for investment, the Company performs a comprehensive analysis of its loan portfolio and assigns risk ratings to loans that incorporate management’s current judgments about their credit quality based on all known and relevant internal and external factors that may affect collectability, using similar factors as those in developing the allowance for credit losses. This methodology results in loans being segmented by risk classification into risk rating categories that are associated with estimated probabilities of default and principal loss. Risk rating categories range from “1” to “5” with “1” representing the lowest risk of loss and “5” representing the highest risk of loss with the ratings updated quarterly. At the time of origination or purchase, loans held for investment are ranked as a “2” and will move accordingly going forward based on the ratings which are defined as follows: 1. Very Low Risk- 2. Low Risk- 3. Average Risk- 4. High Risk/Delinquent/Potential for Loss- 5. Impaired/Defaulted/Loss Likely- The Company also considers qualitative and environmental factors, including, but not limited to, economic and business conditions, nature and volume of the loan portfolio, lending terms, volume and severity of past due loans, concentration of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations in its determination of the allowance for credit losses. Changes in the allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments are recorded in Provision/(benefit) for credit losses on the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding offset to the financial instrument’s amortized cost recorded on the consolidated balance sheets, or as a component of Accounts payable and accrued expenses for unfunded loan commitments. The Company has elected to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivable as it is timely, following three months time, reversed against interest income when a loan, real estate security or preferred equity investment is placed on nonaccrual status. The Company did not record reversals of accrued interest receivable during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Loans are charged off against the Provision/(benefit) for credit losses when all or a portion of the principal amount is determined to be uncollectible. Past due and nonaccrual status Loans are placed on nonaccrual status and considered non-performing when full payment of principal and interest is unpaid for 90 days or more or where reasonable doubt exists as to timely collection, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Interest received on nonaccrual status loans are accounted for under the cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Upon restructuring the nonaccrual loan, the Company may return a loan to accrual status when repayment of principal and interest is reasonably assured. Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”) The Company classifies an individual financial instrument as a TDR when it has a reasonable expectation that the financial instrument’s contractual terms will be modified in a manner that grants concession to the borrower who is experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions could include term extensions, payment deferrals, interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, forbearance, or other actions designed to maximize the Company’s collection on the financial instrument. The Company determines the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments that are TDRs individually.	Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which amends the credit impairment model for financial instruments. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. Following our adoption of ASU 2016-13, our previous incurred loss model was replaced with a lifetime current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model for financial instruments carried at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loans, loan commitments, held-to-maturity (“HTM”) debt securities, financial guarantees, net investments in leases, reinsurance and trade receivables, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowance for losses. For available for sale (“AFS”) debt securities, unrealized credit losses are recognized as allowances rather than reductions in amortized cost basis and elimination of the other than temporary impairment concept will result in more frequent estimation of credit losses. The accounting model for purchased credit impaired loans and debt securities has been simplified, including elimination of some of the asymmetrical treatment between credit losses and credit recoveries, to be consistent with the CECL model for originated and purchased non-credit impaired assets. The adopted model for ASC 326 as it applies to HTM and AFS securities, encompassing the beneficial interest model for securities that are not of high credit quality, has been clarified to include the effective interest method as a basis for the projection of cash collections method in connection with the newly adopted impairment models for HTM and AFS debt securities under ASC 326 when securities are not of high credit quality. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, the Company recorded an additional allowance for credit losses for our outstanding loans and unfunded loan commitments of $7.8 million, or $ 0.18 0.27% Pre-adoption Transition Adjustment Post-adjustment Assets Commercial mortgage loans, held for investment, net of allowance $ 2,762,042 $ (7,211 ) $ 2,754,831 Liabilities Accounts payable and accrued expenses (1) 10,925 (550 ) 10,375 Equity Accumulated deficit $ (85,968 ) $ (7,761 ) $ (93,729 ) (1) Includes allowance associated with unfunded loan commitment. The following discussion highlights changes to the Company’s accounting policies as a result of this adoption. Allowance for credit losses The allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments carried at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loans held for investment and unfunded loan commitments represents a lifetime estimate of expected credit losses. Factors considered by the Company when determining the allowance for credit losses reserve include loan-specific characteristics such as loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio, vintage year, loan term, property type, occupancy and geographic location, financial performance of the borrower, expected payments of principal and interest, as well as internal or external information relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist for multiple financial instruments. If similar risk characteristics do not exist, the Company measures the allowance for credit losses on an individual instrument basis. The determination of whether a particular financial instrument should be included in a pool can change over time. If a financial asset’s risk characteristics change, the Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to continue to keep the financial instrument in its existing pool or evaluate it individually. In measuring the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments including our unfunded loan commitments that share similar risk characteristics, the Company primarily applies a probability of default (“PD”)/loss given default (“LGD”) model for instruments that are collectively assessed, whereby the allowance for credit losses is calculated as the product of PD, LGD and exposure at default (“EAD”). The Company’s model principally utilizes historical loss rates derived from a commercial mortgage backed securities database with historical losses from 1998 to 2020 provided by a reputable third party, forecasting the loss parameters using a scenario-based statistical approach over a reasonable and supportable forecast period of twelve months, followed by an immediate reversion to average historical losses. For financial instruments assessed on an individual basis, including when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the full payment of principal and interest on the instrument, the Company applies a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology. For financial instruments where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty based on the Company’s assessment at the reporting date and the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the Company may elect to use as a practical expedient the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date when determining the allowance for credit losses. In developing the allowance for credit losses for its loans held for investment, the Company performs a comprehensive analysis of its loan portfolio and assigns risk ratings to loans that incorporate management’s current judgments about their credit quality based on all known and relevant internal and external factors that may affect collectability, using similar factors as those in developing the allowance for credit losses. This methodology results in loans being segmented by risk classification into risk rating categories that are associated with estimated probabilities of default and principal loss. Risk rating categories range from “1” to “5” with “1” representing the lowest risk of loss and “5” representing the highest risk of loss with the ratings updated quarterly. At the time of origination or purchase, loans held for investment are ranked as a “2” and will move accordingly going forward based on the ratings which are defined as follows: 1. Very Low Risk- 2. Low Risk- 3. Average Risk- 4. High Risk/Delinquent/Potential for Loss- 5. Impaired/Defaulted/Loss Likely- The Company also considers qualitative and environmental factors, including, but not limited to, economic and business conditions, nature and volume of the loan portfolio, lending terms, volume and severity of past due loans, concentration of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations in its determination of the allowance for credit losses. Changes in the allowance for credit losses for the Company’s financial instruments are recorded in Provision/(benefit) for credit losses on the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding offset to the financial instrument’s amortized cost recorded on the consolidated balance sheets, or as a component of Accounts payable and accrued expenses for unfunded loan commitments. The Company has elected to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivable as it is timely, following three months time, reversed against interest income when a loan, real estate security or preferred equity investment is placed on nonaccrual status. The Company did not record reversals of accrued interest receivable during the year ended December 31, 2020. Loans are charged off against the Provision/(benefit) for credit losses when all or a portion of the principal amount is determined to be uncollectible. Past due and nonaccrual status Loans are placed on nonaccrual status and considered non-performing when full payment of principal and interest is unpaid for 90 days or more or where reasonable doubt exists as to timely collection, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Interest received on nonaccrual status loans are accounted for under the cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual.

The Company determines the allowance for credit losses for financial instruments that are TDRs individually.
Real Estate Securities	Real Estate Securities On the acquisition date, all of the Company’s commercial real estate securities were classified as available for sale and carried at fair value, and subsequently any unrealized gains or losses are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The Company may elect the fair value option for its real estate securities, and as a result, any unrealized gains or losses on such real estate securities will be recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. No such election has been made to date. Related discounts, premiums and acquisition expenses on investments are amortized over the life of the investment using the effective interest method. Amortization is reflected as an adjustment to interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company uses the specific identification method in determining the cost relief for real estate securities sold. Realized gains and losses from the sale of real estate securities are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. AFS real estate securities which have experienced a decline in the fair value below their amortized cost basis (i.e., impairment) are evaluated each reporting period to determine whether the decline in fair value is due to credit-related factors. Any impairment that is not credit-related is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, while credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance on the consolidated balance sheets with a corresponding adjustment on the consolidated statements of operations. If the Company intends to sell an impaired real estate security or more likely than not will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis. The Company analyzes the AFS security portfolio on a periodic basis for credit losses at the individual security level using the same criteria described above for those amortized cost financial assets subject to an allowance for credit losses including but not limited to; performance of the underlying assets in the security, borrower financial resources and investment in collateral, collateral type, credit ratings, project economics and geographic location as well as national and regional economic factors. The non-credit loss component of the unrealized loss within the Company’s AFS portfolio is recognized as an adjustment to the individual security’s asset balance with an offsetting entry to accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheets.

Repurchase Agreements	Repurchase Agreements Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities sold under repurchase agreements have been treated as collateralized financing transactions because the Company maintains effective control over the transferred securities. Commercial mortgage loans and real estate securities financed through a repurchase agreement remain on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as an asset and cash received from the purchaser is recorded as a liability. Interest paid in accordance with repurchase agreements is recorded in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Deferred Financing Costs	Deferred Financing Costs The deferred financing costs related to the Company’s various Master Repurchase Agreements as well as certain prepaid subscription costs are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing cost on the Company’s collateralized loan obligations (“CLO”) are netted against the Company’s CLO payable in the Collateralized loan obligations on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing costs are amortized over the terms of the respective financing agreement using the effective interest method and included in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Unamortized deferred financing costs are generally expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan	Distribution Reinvestment Plan Pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) stockholders may elect to reinvest distributions by purchasing shares of common stock in lieu of receiving cash. No dealer manager fees or selling commissions are paid with respect to shares purchased pursuant to the DRIP. The purchase price for shares purchased through the DRIP is the lesser of (i) the Company’s most recent estimated per share net asset value (“NAV”), and (ii) the Company’s most recently disclosed GAAP book value per share. There is no market for our common stock. The board of directors may designate that certain cash or other distributions be excluded from the DRIP. The Company has the right to amend any aspect of the DRIP or terminate the DRIP with ten days’ notice to participants. Shares issued under the DRIP are recorded to equity in the consolidated balance sheets in the period distributions are declared.

Share-based awards are measured at the grant date fair value and is recognized as compensation expense on a on a straight line basis over the related vesting period of the award. See Note 12 - Share-Based Compensation.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Company has conducted its operations to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2013. As a REIT, if the Company meets certain organizational and operational requirements and distributes at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income” (determined before the deduction of dividends paid and excluding net capital gains) to its stockholders in a year, it will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent of the income that it distributes. However, even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on income in addition to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. The Company, through its TRS, is indirectly subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. The Company’s TRS is not consolidated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but is instead taxed as a C corporation. For financial reporting purposes, the TRS is consolidated and a provision for current and deferred taxes is established for the portion of earnings recognized by the Company with respect to its interest in its TRS. Total income tax provision/(benefit) for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 was $0.3 million and $(0.7) million, respectively. Total income tax provision/(benefit) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 was $2.3 million and $(2.6) million, respectively. The Company uses a more-likely-than-not threshold for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or to be taken in a tax return. The Company has assessed its tax positions for all open tax years beginning with December 31, 2017 and concluded that there were no uncertainties to be recognized. The Company’s accounting policy with respect to interest and penalties related to tax uncertainties is to classify these amounts as provision for income taxes. The Company utilizes the TRS to reduce the impact of the prohibited transaction tax and to avoid penalty for the holding of assets not qualifying as real estate assets for purposes of the REIT asset tests. Any income associated with a TRS is fully taxable because the TRS is subject to federal and state income taxes as a domestic C corporation based upon its net income.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities	Derivatives and Hedging Activities In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effect of interest rate changes and may undertake a strategy to limit these risks through the use of derivatives. The Company uses derivatives primarily to economically hedge against interest rates, CMBS spreads and macro market risk in order to minimize volatility. The Company may use a variety of derivative instruments that are considered conventional, including but not limited to: Treasury note futures and credit derivatives on various indices including CMBX and CDX. The Company recognizes all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The Company does not designate derivatives as hedges to qualify for hedge accounting for financial reporting purposes and therefore any net payments under, or fluctuations in the fair value of these derivatives have been recognized currently in unrealized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company records derivative asset and liability positions on a gross basis with any collateral posted with or received from counterparties recorded separately within Restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Certain derivatives that the Company has entered into are subject to master netting agreements with its counterparties, allowing for netting of the same transaction, in the same currency, on the same date.

Per Share Data	Per Share Data The Company’s Preferred Stock is considered a participating security and the Company calculates basic earnings per share using the two-class method. The Company’s dilutive earnings per share calculation is computed using the more dilutive result of the treasury stock method, assuming the participating security is a potential common share, or the two-class method, assuming the participating security is not converted. The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing net income applicable to common stock for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for that period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from shares outstanding if potential shares of common stock with a dilutive effect have been issued in connection with the restricted stock plan or upon conversion of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock, except when doing so would be anti-dilutive.

Reportable Segments	Reportable Segments The Company has determined that it has four reportable segments based on how the chief operating decision maker reviews and manages the business. The four reporting segments are as follows: • The real estate debt business which is focused on originating, acquiring and asset managing commercial real estate debt investments, including first mortgage loans, subordinate mortgages, mezzanine loans and participations in such loans. • The real estate securities business which is focused on investing in and asset managing commercial real estate securities primarily consisting of CMBS and may include unsecured REIT debt, CDO notes and other securities. • The commercial conduit business in the Company’s TRS, which is focused on originating and subsequently selling fixed-rate commercial real estate loans into the CMBS securitization market. • The real estate owned business represents real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or purchase. See Note 15 - Segment Reporting for further information regarding the Company’s segments.

Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock	Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock The Company’s outstanding Preferred Stock is classified outside of permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheets. Subject to certain conditions, the outstanding Preferred Stock is redeemable at the option of the holders of the Preferred Stock, outside of the control of the Company. Series A Preferred Stock The Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), and on parity with all other outstanding classes of preferred stock of the Company (including the Series C and Series D Preferred Stock) with respect to priority in dividends and in the distribution of assets in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company. The liquidation preference of each share of Series A Preferred Stock is the greater of (i) $5,000 plus accrued and unpaid dividends, and (ii) the amount that would be received upon a conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock. Dividends are on the Series A Preferred Stock, which are typically declared and paid quarterly, accrue at a rate equal to the greater of (i) an annual amount equal to 4.0% of the liquidation preference per share (subject to a 1.0% increase in the event of the ratings for the Series A Preferred Stock decreases below a certain threshold) and (ii) the dividends that would have been paid had such share of Series A Preferred Stock been converted into a share of Common Stock on the first day of such quarter, subject to proration in the event the share of Series A Preferred Stock is not outstanding for the full quarter. Dividends are paid in arrears. Dividends will accumulate and be cumulative from the most recent date to which dividends had been paid. Immediately prior to a “Liquidity Event,” each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock shall convert into 299.2 If there has not been a Liquidity Event by June 25, 2024 (six years from the initial issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock), each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to require the Company to redeem its Series A Preferred Stock for cash at the liquidation preference, or such holder may convert all, but not less than all, of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder into Common Stock at the Conversion Rate. In the event of the sale of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company (by sale, merger, consolidation or otherwise) or the acquisition by any person of more than 50% of the total economic interests or voting power of all securities of the Company (a “Company Change of Control”), other than a Liquidity Event, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock will have the right, prior to consummation of such transaction, to convert its Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock at the Conversion Rate. In addition, in the event of a change of control of the Advisor (as defined in the Articles Supplementary) or a Company Change of Control that is not a Liquidity Event and that is related to the removal of the Advisor, both the Company and the holder shall have the right, prior to consummation of the transaction, to require the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock for the liquidation preference. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock (voting as a single class with holders of Common Stock and other classes of voting Preferred Stock) are entitled to vote on each matter submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company upon which the holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote. The number of votes applicable to a share of outstanding Series A Preferred Stock will be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock a share of Series A Preferred Stock could have been converted into as of the record date set for purposes of such stockholder vote (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock). In addition, the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock is required to approve the issuance of any equity securities senior to the Series A Preferred Stock and to take certain actions materially adverse to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock. Series C Preferred Stock The Series C Preferred Stock is on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to preference on liquidation and dividend rights. Except as set forth below, the terms of the Series C Preferred Stock are substantially the same as the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock: • The Series C Preferred Stock is not rated and its dividend rate is not impacted by changes in ratings. • The are no anti-dilution adjustments to the Conversion Price based on share issuances at below GAAP book value. • The Series C Preferred Stock will not immediately convert upon a Liquidation Event; the mandatory conversion will occur on the one-year anniversary of the Liquidity Event. The Company has the option to accelerate the mandatory conversion date to a date no earlier than six months after the Liquidity Event upon 10 days’ notice to the holders. • A Company Change of Control that is also a Liquidity Event will trigger the Change of Control redemption right. • The optional conversion and redemption provisions are effective on and after on October 18, 2025 (rather than June 25, 2024). • With respect to voting rights on issuance of any equity securities senior to the Series C Preferred Stock and certain other actions materially adverse to the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Series C Preferred Stock holders will vote as a single class with other parity Preferred Stock (except the Series A Preferred Stock). Series D Preferred Stock The Series D Preferred Stock is on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock with respect to preference on liquidation and dividend rights. The terms of the Series D Preferred Stock are substantially the same as the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock, except that the Series D Preferred Stock will not immediately convert upon a Liquidation Event; the mandatory conversion will occur on the one-year anniversary of the Liquidity Event. The holders have the option to accelerate the mandatory conversion date to a date no earlier than six months after the Liquidity Event. The complete terms of the Company’s Preferred Stock are set forth in the Articles Supplementary applicable to each class, which have been filed as exhibits to the Company’s periodic reports filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.	Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock The Company’s outstanding Preferred Stock is classified outside of permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheets. Subject to certain conditions, the outstanding Preferred Stock is redeemable at the option of the holders of the Preferred Stock, outside of the control of the Company. As set forth in the Articles Supplementary relating to each of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Articles Supplementary”) to the Company’s Articles of Amendment and Restatement, the Preferred Stock is redeemable for shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) at the option of the holder upon a change of control (as defined in the Articles Supplementary) or after the sixth anniversary of the date of issuance. A change in control of the Company occurs if any person acquires more than 50% of the total economic interests or voting power of all securities of the Company, other than in a liquidity event. Shares of Preferred Stock rank senior to shares of Common Stock with respect to rights to receive dividends and to participate in distributions or payments upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. Dividends payable on each share of outstanding Preferred Stock will be equal to the greater of (i) an amount equal to $ 16.67 Immediately prior to a “Liquidity Event,” each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock shall convert into 299.2 Holders of the outstanding Preferred Stock are entitled to vote on each matter submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company upon which the holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote, upon which the holders of the Preferred Stock and holders of the Common Stock shall vote together as a single class. The number of votes applicable to a share of outstanding Preferred Stock will be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock a share of Preferred Stock could have been converted into as of the record date set for purposes of such stockholder vote (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock). In addition, the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock is required to approve the issuance of any equity securities senior to the Preferred Stock and to take certain actions materially adverse to the holders of the Preferred Stock.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments	GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair values. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The three levels of the hierarchy are described below: • Level I - Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. • Level II - Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life. • Level III - Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques. The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the above hierarchy requires significant judgment and factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. The Company has implemented valuation control processes to validate the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value including those derived from pricing models. These control processes are designed to assure that the values used for financial reporting are based on observable inputs wherever possible. In the event that observable inputs are not available, the control processes are designed to assure that the valuation approach utilized is appropriate and consistently applied and the assumptions are reasonable. Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis CMBS, recorded in real estate securities, available for sale, measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are valued utilizing both observable and unobservable market inputs. These factors include projected future cash flows, ratings, subordination levels, vintage, remaining lives, credit issues, and recent trades of similar real estate securities. Depending upon the significance of the fair value inputs used in determining these fair values, these real estate securities are classified in either Level II or Level III of the fair value hierarchy. The Company obtains third party pricing for determining the fair value of each CMBS investments, resulting in a Level II classification. Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value in the Company’s TRS are initially recorded at transaction proceeds, which are considered to be the best initial estimate of fair value. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. Commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value that are originated in the last month of the reporting period are held and marked to the transaction proceeds. The Company classified the commercial mortgage loans, held for sale, measured at fair value as Level III. Other real estate investments, measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are valued using unobservable inputs. The Company engaged the services of a third party independent valuation firm to determine fair value of certain investments, including preferred equity investments, held by the Company. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model that primarily considers changes in interest rates and credit spreads, weighted average life and current performance of the underlying collateral. The Company classified the other real estate investments, measured at fair value as Level III. The fair value for Treasury note futures is derived using market prices. Treasury note futures trade on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”). The instruments are a variety of recently issued 10-year U.S. Treasury notes. The future contracts are liquid and are centrally cleared through the CME. Treasury note futures are generally categorized in Level I of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value for credit default swaps and interest rate swaps contracts are derived using pricing models that are widely accepted by marketplace participants. Credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are traded in the OTC market. The pricing models take into account multiple inputs including specific contract terms, interest rate yield curves, interest rates, credit curves, recovery rates, and/or current credit spreads obtained from swap counterparties and other market participants. Most inputs into the models are not subjective as they are observable in the marketplace or set per the contract. Valuation is primarily determined by the difference between the contract spread and the current market spread. The contract spread (or rate) is generally fixed and the market spread is determined by the credit risk of the underlying debt or reference entity. If the underlying indices are liquid and the OTC market for the current spread is active, credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy. If the underlying indices are illiquid and the OTC market for the current spread is not active, credit default swaps are categorized in Level III of the fair value hierarchy. The credit default swaps and interest rate swaps are generally categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy. A review of the fair value hierarchy classification is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets or liabilities. The Company’s policy with respect to transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy is to recognize transfers into and out of each level as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no material transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy for the period ended June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
