Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Business and Organization	(1) Business and Organization TPG RE Finance Trust, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “we”, “us”, “our”, or the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation that was incorporated on October 24, 2014 and commenced operations on December 18, 2014 (“Inception”). We are organized as a holding company and conduct our operations primarily through our various subsidiaries. We conduct our operations as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on our REIT taxable income to the extent that we annually distribute all of our REIT taxable income to stockholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT. We also operate our business in a manner that permits us to maintain an exclusion from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Company’s principal business activity is to directly originate and acquire a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate related assets, consisting primarily of first mortgage loans and senior participation interests in first mortgage loans secured by institutional-quality properties in primary and select secondary markets in the United States, and commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”). As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company conducted substantially all of its operations through a Delaware limited liability company, TPG RE Finance Trust Holdco, LLC (“Holdco”), and the Company’s other wholly-owned subsidiaries.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The interim consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts, consolidated variable interest entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (see Note 5 for details). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates, and such differences could be material. Significant estimates made in the consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to: impairment; adequacy of provisions for loan losses; and valuation of financial instruments. Principles of Consolidation Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810—Consolidation (“ASC 810”) provides guidance on the identification of a VIE (a variable interest entity for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights) and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIE. An entity is considered a VIE if any of the following applies: (1) the equity investors (if any) lack one or more of the essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest; (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support; or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest. The Company consolidates VIEs in which it is considered to be the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is defined as the entity having both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the VIE’s performance; and (2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE. At each reporting date, the Company reconsiders its primary beneficiary conclusion to determine if its obligation to absorb losses of, or its rights to receive benefits from, the VIE could potentially be more than insignificant, and will consolidate or not consolidate accordingly. Revenue Recognition Interest income on loans is accrued using the interest method based on the contractual terms of the loan, adjusted for credit impairment, if any. The objective of the interest method is to arrive at periodic interest income including recognition of fees and costs at a constant effective yield. Premiums, discounts, and origination fees are amortized or accreted into interest income over the lives of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight line basis when it approximates the interest method. Extension and modification fees are accreted into income on a straight line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the related extension or modification period. Exit fees are accreted into income on a straight line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the lives of the loans to which they relate unless they can be waived by the Company or a co-lender in connection with a loan refinancing. Prepayment penalties from borrowers are recognized as interest income when received. Certain of the Company’s loan investments have in the past and may in the future provide for additional interest based on the borrower’s operating cash flow or appreciation of the underlying collateral. Such amounts are considered contingent interest and are reflected as interest income only upon certainty of collection. The Company considers a loan to be non-performing and places loans on non-accrual status at such time as: (1) management determines the borrower is incapable of, or has ceased efforts toward, curing the cause of a default; (2) the loan becomes 90 days delinquent; or (3) the loan experiences a maturity default. While on non-accrual status, based on the Company’s judgment as to collectability of principal, loans are either accounted for on a cash basis, where interest income is recognized only upon receipt of cash for principal and interest payments, or on a cost-recovery basis, where all cash receipts reduce a loan’s carrying value, and interest income is only recorded when such carrying value has been fully recovered. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, no loans were placed on non-accrual status and no losses or impairments were recorded to our loan portfolio. Loans Held for Investment Loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or repayment, are reported at their outstanding principal balances net of any premiums, discounts, loan origination fees and an allowance for loan losses. Loan origination fees and direct loan origination costs are deferred and recognized in interest income over the estimated life of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight line basis when it approximates the interest method, adjusted for actual prepayments. The Company evaluates each loan classified as a loan held for investment for impairment on a quarterly basis. Impairment occurs when it is deemed probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. If the loan is considered to be impaired, an allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the loan to the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s contractual effective rate, or the fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell, if recovery of the Company’s investment is expected solely from the sale of the collateral. As part of the quarterly impairment review, we evaluate the risk of each loan and assign a risk rating based on a variety of factors, grouped as follows to include (without limitation): (i) loan and credit structure, including the as-is loan-to-value (“LTV”) and structural features; (ii) quality and stability of real estate value and operating cash flow, including debt yield, property type, dynamics of the geographic, property-type and local market, physical condition, stability of cash flow, leasing velocity and quality and diversity of tenancy; (iii) performance against underwritten business plan; and (iv) quality, experience and financial condition of sponsor, borrower and guarantor(s). Based on a 5-point scale, our loans are rated “1” through “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively, which ratings are defined as follows: 1- Outperform—Exceeds performance metrics (for example, technical milestones, occupancy, rents, net operating income) included in original or current credit underwriting and business plan; 2- Meets or Exceeds Expectations—Collateral performance meets or exceeds substantially all performance metrics included in original or current underwriting / business plan; 3- Satisfactory—Collateral performance meets or is on track to meet underwriting; business plan is met or can reasonably be achieved; 4- Underperformance—Collateral performance falls short of original underwriting, material differences exist from business plan, or both; technical milestones have been missed; defaults may exist, or may soon occur absent material improvement; and 5- Risk of Impairment/Default—Collateral performance is significantly worse than underwriting; major variance from business plan; loan covenants or technical milestones have been breached; timely exit from loan via sale or refinancing is questionable. Since Inception, the Company has not recorded asset-specific loan loss reserves, nor has it recognized any impairments on its loan portfolio. Our determination of asset-specific loan loss reserves, should any such reserves be necessary, relies on material estimates regarding the fair value of loan collateral. Such losses could be caused by various factors, including, but not limited to, unanticipated adverse changes in the economy or events adversely affecting specific assets, borrowers, industries in which our borrowers operate or markets in which our borrowers or their properties are located. Significant judgment is required when evaluating loans for impairment. The Company’s loans are typically collateralized by real estate, or in the case of mezzanine loans, by a partnership or similar equity interest in an entity that owns real estate. As a result, the Company regularly evaluates on a loan-by-loan basis the extent and impact of any credit deterioration associated with the performance and/or value of the underlying collateral property as well as the financial and operating capability of the borrower/sponsor. The Company also evaluates the financial strength of loan guarantors, if any, and the borrower’s competency in managing and operating the property or properties. In addition, the Company considers the overall economic environment, real estate sector, and geographic sub-market in which the borrower operates. Such impairment analyses are completed and reviewed by asset management personnel and evaluated by senior management, who utilize various data sources, including (i) periodic financial data such as property occupancy, tenant profile, rental rates, operating expenses, the borrower’s exit plan, and capitalization and discount rates, (ii) site inspections, (iii) sales and financing comparables, (iv) current credit spreads for refinancing and (v) other market data. Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities The Company acquires CMBS investments primarily for cash management purposes, and also for investment purposes. The Company designates CMBS investments as available-for-sale on the acquisition date. CMBS investments that are classified as available-for-sale are recorded at fair value in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Additionally, CMBS investments that are not classified as held-to-maturity and which the Company does not hold for the purpose of selling in the near-term, but may dispose of prior to maturity, are also designated as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. The Company’s recognition of interest income from its CMBS, including its amortization of premium and discount, follows the Company’s revenue recognition policy as described above under “Revenue Recognition”. The Company uses a specific identification method when determining the cost of a security sold and the amount of unrealized gain or loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings. Unrealized losses on securities that, in the judgment of management, are other than temporary are charged against earnings as a loss in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Significant valuation inputs are Level II in the fair value hierarchy as described below under “Fair Value Measurements”. Portfolio Financing Arrangements The Company finances certain loan and CMBS investments using secured revolving repurchase agreements, asset-specific financing arrangements (notes payable on the consolidated balance sheets), a senior secured credit facility, and collateralized loan obligations. The related borrowings are recorded as separate liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Interest income earned on the investments and interest expense incurred on the related borrowings are reported separately on the Company’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. In certain instances, the Company creates structural leverage through the co-origination or non-recourse syndication of a senior loan interest to a third party. For all such syndications the Company has completed through June 30, 2018, the Company has transferred 100% of the senior mortgage loan that the Company originated on a non-recourse basis to a third-party lender and has retained as a loan investment a separate mezzanine loan investment secured by a pledge of the equity in the mortgage borrower. With respect to the senior mortgage loan transferred, the Company retains: no control over the mortgage loan; no economic interest in the mortgage loan; and no recourse to the purchaser or the borrower. Consequently, based on these circumstances and because the Company does not have any continuing involvement with the transferred senior mortgage loan, these syndications are accounted for as sales under GAAP and are removed from the Company’s consolidated financial statements at the time of transfer. The Company’s consolidated balance sheets only include the separate mezzanine loan remaining after the transfer, and not the non-consolidated senior loan interest sold or co-originated that the Company transferred. Fair Value Measurements The Company follows ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures “ASC 820-10” Level I Level II Level III For certain financial instruments, the various inputs that management uses to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for such financial instrument is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial instrument. The Company may use valuation techniques consistent with the market and income approaches to measure the fair value of its assets and liabilities. The market approach uses third-party valuations and information obtained from market transactions involving identical or similar assets or liabilities. The income approach uses projections of the future economic benefits of an instrument to determine its fair value, such as in the discounted cash flow methodology. The inputs or methodology used for valuing financial instruments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these financial instruments. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are assumed to occur at the end of the reporting period. Income Taxes The Company qualifies and has elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its initial taxable year ended December 31, 2014. To the extent that it annually distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to stockholders and complies with various other requirements as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on its distributed REIT taxable income. If the Company fails to continue to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year and does not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes at regular corporate rates beginning with the year in which it fails to qualify and may be precluded from being able to elect to be treated as a REIT for the Company’s four subsequent taxable years. Even though the Company currently qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain U.S. federal, state, local and foreign taxes on the Company’s income and property and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on the Company’s undistributed REIT taxable income. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the enactment date occurs. Under ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes Earnings per Common Share The Company utilizes the two-class method when assessing participating securities to calculate earnings per common share. Basic and diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders (i.e., holders of common stock and Class A common stock), by the weighted-average number of common shares (both common stock and Class A common stock) outstanding during the period. The preferences, rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption of the Class A common stock are identical to the common stock, except (1) the Class A common stock is not a “margin security” as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System (and rulings and interpretations thereunder) and may not be listed on a national securities exchange or a national market system and (2) each share of Class A common stock is convertible at any time or from time to time, at the option of the holder, for one fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock. The Class A common stock votes together with the common stock as a single class. Shares of Class A common stock have been issued to, and are owned by, certain individuals or entities affiliated with the Company’s external manager, TPG RE Finance Trust Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Manager”), and the sale or conversion to common stock by investors of such shares of Class A common stock is subject to certain restrictions. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by including the effect of dilutive securities. The Company accounts for unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable dividend rights or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) as participating securities, which are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. Share-Based Compensation Share-based compensation consists of awards issued by the Company to certain employees of affiliates of our Manager and certain members of our Board of Directors. These share-based awards generally vest in installments over a fixed period of time. Compensation expense is recognized in net income on a variable basis over the applicable award vesting period based on the value of our common stock. Forfeitures of share-based awards are recognized as they occur. Deferred Financing Costs Deferred financing costs are reflected net of the collateralized loan obligation and secured financing agreements on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. These costs are amortized in interest expense using the interest method or on a straight line basis when it approximates the interest method over the life of the related obligations. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in banks or invested in money market funds with original maturities of less than 90 days. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality institutions to minimize credit risk exposure. The Company maintains cash accounts at several financial institutions, which are insured up to a maximum of $250,000 per account as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The balances in these accounts may exceed the insured limits. Restricted Cash Restricted cash primarily represents deposit proceeds from potential borrowers which may be returned to borrowers, after deducting transaction costs paid by the Company for the benefit of the borrowers, upon the closing of a loan transaction. Accounts Receivable from Servicer/Trustee Accounts receivable from Servicer/Trustee represents cash proceeds from loan and CMBS investment activities that have not been remitted to the Company based on contractual procedures previously agreed upon. Amounts are generally held by the Servicer/Trustee for less than 60 days before being remitted to the Company. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 will replace the “incurred loss” model under existing guidance with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost, and require entities to record allowances for available-for-sale debt securities rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they do today under the other-than-temporary impairment model. Upon adoption, and resulting from this change, the Company expects that it will be required to record a loan loss reserve at origination or acquisition of an individual loan or a loan portfolio. ASU 2016-13 also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and is to be adopted through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2016-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”). ASU 2018-07 expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The amendments state that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment awards. ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than an entity’s adoption of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2018-07 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Receivables [Abstract]
Loans Held for Investment	(3) Loans Held for Investment The Company currently originates and acquires first mortgage and mezzanine loans secured by commercial properties. These loans can potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk as measured by various attributes, including the property type collateralizing the loan, loan size, loans to a single sponsor and loans in a single geographic area, among others. The Company’s loans held for investment are accounted for at amortized cost. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company originated 14 loans with a total commitment of approximately $1.2 billion, an initial unpaid principal balance of $1.0 billion, and unfunded commitments at closing of $141.0 million. To fund these loan originations, the Company used cash on hand and its secured revolving repurchase facilities and senior secured credit facility. Total commitments related to the syndication of non-consolidated senior interests as of June 30, 2018 was $44.0 million relating to a loan originated in a prior period. The following tables present an overview of the loan investment portfolio as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (dollars in thousands): June 30, 2018 Loans Receivable Outstanding Principal Unamortized Premium (Discount), Loan Origination Fees, net Carrying Amount Senior loans $ 3,806,804 $ (20,252 ) $ 3,786,552 Subordinated and mezzanine loans 19,000 (1 ) 18,999 Subtotal before allowance 3,825,804 (20,253 ) 3,805,551 Allowance for loan losses — — — Total $ 3,825,804 $ (20,253 ) $ 3,805,551 December 31, 2017 Loans Receivable Outstanding Principal Unamortized Premium (Discount), Loan Origination Fees, net Carrying Amount Senior loans $ 3,122,670 $ (22,143 ) $ 3,100,527 Subordinated and mezzanine loans 75,446 (301 ) 75,145 Subtotal before allowance 3,198,116 (22,444 ) 3,175,672 Allowance for loan losses — — — Total $ 3,198,116 $ (22,444 ) $ 3,175,672 For the six months ended June 30, 2018, loan portfolio activity was as follows (dollars in thousands): Carrying Value Balance at December 31, 2017 $ 3,175,672 Additions during the period: Loans originated 1,040,793 Additional fundings 150,769 Amortization of discount and origination fees 9,112 Deductions during the period: Collection of principal (570,795 ) Balance at June 30, 2018 $ 3,805,551 At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there was $0.3 million and $2.0 million of unamortized discount included in loans held for investment at amortized cost on the consolidated balance sheets. The table below summarizes the carrying values and results of the Company’s internal risk rating review performed as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (dollars in thousands): Carrying Value Rating June 30, 2018 December 31, 2017 1 $ 49,000 $ — 2 1,065,644 1,318,816 3 2,470,666 1,680,913 4 220,241 175,943 5 — — Totals $ 3,805,551 $ 3,175,672 Weighted Average Risk Rating (1) 2.8 2.6 (1) Weighted Average Risk Rating calculated based on unpaid principal balance at period end. The weighted average risk rating at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was 2.8 and 2.6, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, one loan was moved from the Company’s Category 3 risk rating into its Category 4 risk rating as a result of a near term maturity and a decline in the collateral’s operating performance below the Company’s initial underwriting. Additionally, the Company moved one loan that was classified in its Category 2 risk rating into its Category 3 risk rating due to slower than anticipated leasing activity. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no loans on non-accrual status or that were impaired; thus, the Company did not record a reserve for loan loss. See Note 16 for details about the Company’s mortgage loan originations and the sale of a non-core loan investment subsequent to June 30, 2018.

Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities	(4) Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company purchased for short-term cash management and investment purposes seven CMBS investments for $74.9 million and 17 CMBS investments for $138.0 million, respectively. The purchased CMBS investments consist of floating rate instruments which, in the aggregate, have a weighted average coupon of 2.9%. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had 22 and five CMBS, respectively, designated as available-for-sale securities. Details of the carrying and fair values of the Company’s CMBS portfolio are as follows (dollars in thousands): June 30, 2018 Face Amount Unamortized Premium (Discount), net Gross Unrealized Loss Estimated Fair Value Investments, at Fair Value Commercial mortgage-backed securities $ 218,979 $ 751 $ (1,672 ) $ 218,058 December 31, 2017 Face Amount Unamortized Premium (Discount), net Gross Unrealized Loss Estimated Fair Value Investments, at Fair Value Commercial mortgage-backed securities $ 85,661 $ 268 $ (34 ) $ 85,895 CMBS fair values are considered Level II fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy of ASC 820-10. The CMBS fair values are based upon market, broker, and counterparty or pricing services quotations, which provide valuation estimates, based upon reasonable market order indications. These fair value quotations are subject to significant variability based on market conditions, such as interest rates, credit spreads and market liquidity, and are reviewed by the Company for reasonableness and consistency. The Company’s CMBS have a weighted average contractual maturity, based on estimated fair value, of 18.2 years. The amortized cost and estimated fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale CMBS by contractual maturity are shown in the following table (dollars in thousands): June 30, 2018 Amortized Cost Estimated Fair Value Maturity Date After one, within five years $ 36,700 $ 36,872 After five years 183,031 181,186 Total investment in commercial mortgage-backed securities, at amortized cost and estimated fair value $ 219,731 $ 218,058 December 31, 2017 Amortized Cost Estimated Fair Value Maturity Date After one, within five years $ 36,700 $ 36,872 After five years 49,229 49,023 Total investment in commercial mortgage-backed securities, at amortized cost and estimated fair value $ 85,929 $ 85,895 Certain of the Company’s CMBS investments were in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2018. During the preceding 12 months these CMBS investments traded at, or near, their respective carrying values, and interest and principal payments are current. Additionally, as of June 30, 2018, substantially all of the unrealized loss position relates to CMBS investments issued by a government sponsored enterprise. Currently, all of the underlying mortgage loans are performing. No other-than-temporary impairments were recognized through income during the three or six months ended June 30, 2018 or the year ended December 31, 2017.

Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Variable Interest Entities And Collateralized Loan Obligation	(5) Variable Interest Entities and Collateralized Loan Obligations On February 14, 2018 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a collateralized loan obligation (“TRTX 2018-FL1”) through its wholly-owned subsidiaries TPG Real Estate Finance 2018-FL1 Issuer, Ltd., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability, as issuer (the “Issuer”), and TPG RE Finance Trust 2018-FL1 Co-Issuer, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as co-issuer (the “Co-Issuer” and together with the Issuer, the “Issuers”). On the Closing Date, the Issuer issued $820.5 million principal amount of notes (the “Notes”). The Co-Issuer co-issued $745.9 million principal amount of investment grade-rated notes which were purchased by third party investors. Concurrently with the issuance of the Notes, the Issuer also issued preferred shares, par value $0.001 per share and with an aggregate liquidation preference and notional amount equal to $1,000 per share (the “Preferred Shares” and, together with the Notes, the “Securities”), to TPG RE Finance Trust 2018-FL1 Retention Holder, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company retained ownership of $186.5 million of the Notes sold and Preferred Shares in the Issuers. Additionally, during the three months ending June 30, 2018, the Company purchased as an investment $5.0 million (principal amount) of TRTX 2018-FL1 Class A notes. Proceeds from the issuance of the Securities were used by the Issuers to purchase one commercial real estate whole loan (the “Whole Loan) and 25 fully-funded pari passu participations (the “Pari Passu Participations,” and, together with the Whole Loan and the Contributed Companion Participation Interests (as defined below), the “Mortgage Assets”) in certain commercial real estate mortgage loans. The Mortgage Assets were purchased by the Issuer from TPG RE Finance Trust CLO Loan Seller, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and an affiliate of the Issuers (the “Seller”). TRTX 2018-FL1 contains a replenishment feature that, subject to certain limitations, allows the Company to contribute companion participation interests (“Contributed Companion Participation Interests”) in loans in which TRTX 2018-FL1 already owns an interest in exchange for cash, which provides additional liquidity to the Company to originate new loan investments as underlying loans repay. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company utilized the replenishment feature twice, contributing Contributed Companion Participation Interests of $56.9 million, and receiving net cash proceeds of $13.9 million, after the repayment of $43.0 million of existing borrowings, including accrued interest, secured by the Contributed Companion Participation Interests. The Mortgage Assets represented 23.4% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Company’s loan investment portfolio, and had an aggregate principal balance of approximately $896.5 million, as of June 30, 2018. In accordance with ASC 810, the Company evaluated the key attributes of the Issuers to determine if they were VIEs and, if so, whether the Company was the primary beneficiary of the Issuers’ operating activities. This analysis caused the Company to conclude that the Issuers were VIEs and that the Company was the primary beneficiary. The Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIEs because it has the ability to control the most significant activities of the Issuers, the obligation to absorb losses, and the right to receive benefits, that could potentially be significant to these entities. As a result, the Company consolidates the Issuers. The carrying values of the Company’s total assets and total liabilities related to TRTX 2018-FL1 at June 30, 2018 included the following VIE assets and liabilities (dollars in thousands): June 30, 2018 ASSETS Cash and Cash Equivalents $ 10,704 Accrued Interest Receivable 2,843 Accounts Receivable from Servicer/Trustee 35,902 Loans Held for Investment 896,480 Total Assets $ 945,929 LIABILITIES Accrued Interest Payable $ (1,047 ) Collateralized Loan Obligation (739,030 ) Total Liabilities $ (740,077 ) Assets held by the Issuers are restricted and can only be used to settle obligations of the Issuers. The liabilities of the Issuers are non-recourse to the Company and can only be satisfied from the Issuers’ assets. The following table outlines TRTX 2018-FL1 borrowings and loan collateral under the Company’s consolidated Issuers (dollars in thousands): As of June 30, 2018 Collateral (loan investments) Debt (notes issued) Outstanding Principal Carrying Value Face Value Carrying Value $ 896,480 $ 896,480 $ (745,904 ) $ (739,030 ) On December 18, 2014, the Company entered into a collateralized loan obligation (“2014-CLO”) through TPG RE Finance Trust CLO Issuer, L.P., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“CLO Issuer”) and on December 29, 2014, the Company acquired from German American Capital Corporation (“GACC”) a portfolio of 75% participation interests in certain loans secured primarily by first mortgages on commercial properties, with a face value of approximately $2.4 billion. To partially fund the investment, on December 18, 2014, the CLO Issuer issued a Class A Note secured by the Company’s 75% participation interests in the portfolio of loans acquired. In accordance with ASC 810, the Company evaluated the key attributes of the CLO Issuer to determine if it was a VIE and, if so, whether the Company was the primary beneficiary of the CLO Issuer’s operating activities. This analysis resulted in the Company concluding that the CLO Issuer was a VIE, that the Company was the primary beneficiary, and that it would consolidate the entity. On August 16, 2017, the outstanding principal balance of the Class A Note issued by the CLO Issuer was approximately $118.0 million. On August 16, 2017, the CLO Issuer sold to GACC two first mortgage loan participation interests with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $12.8 million that collateralized the Class A Note in part and recognized in Other income, net a $0.2 million loss on sale. The sales price of the two first mortgage loans was approximately par value. These loans were sold because they were determined to no longer be consistent with the Company’s current investment strategy. On August 18, 2017, one of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries purchased from the CLO Issuer seven first mortgage loan participation interests with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $138.5 million that collateralized the remainder of the Class A Note issued by the CLO Issuer. The first mortgage loan participation interests were sold by the CLO Issuer for approximately par value. On August 23, 2017, proceeds from both transactions were used in combination with approximately $3.0 million of Company cash to retire all amounts outstanding under the Class A Note issued by the CLO Issuer, which totaled $118.0 million, and the 2014-CLO was subsequently terminated. For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, $5.6 million and $4.0 million, respectively, is included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income as interest expense related to TRTX 2018-FL1 and 2014-CLO (including amortization of deferred financing costs). For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, $8.3 million and $8.7 million, respectively, is included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income as interest expense related to TRTX 2018-FL1 and 2014-CLO, respectively (including amortization of deferred financing costs). As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company’s unamortized deferred financing costs related to TRTX 2018-FL1 and 2014-CLO were $6.9 million and $0.0 million, respectively.

Secured Revolving Repurchase Agreements, Senior Secured Credit Facility and Notes Payable	(6) Secured Revolving Repurchase Agreements, Senior Secured Credit Facility and Notes Payable At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had secured revolving repurchase agreements, a senior secured credit facility and notes payable for certain of the Company’s originated loans. These financing agreements bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus a credit spread determined primarily by advance rate and property type. The agreements contain covenants that include certain financial requirements, including maintenance of minimum liquidity, minimum tangible net worth, maximum debt to net worth ratio, current ratio and limitations on capital expenditures, indebtedness, distributions, transactions with affiliates and maintenance of positive net income as defined in the agreements. The following table presents certain information regarding the Company’s notes payable, secured revolving repurchase agreements, and senior secured credit facility as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

Maturity Date represents the sooner of the next maturity date of the CMBS secured revolving repurchase agreement, or roll date for the applicable underlying trade confirmation, subsequent to December 31, 2017. Notes Payable The Company uses note-on-note financing agreements to finance certain of its lending activities. The Company designates these asset-specific financings as notes payable on the consolidated balance sheets. Our ability to draw the undrawn capacity is conditioned upon satisfaction by our borrower of conditions precedent to a funding on the underlying loan pledged as collateral, and by our pro rata funding with equity of the remaining future funding obligation. Amounts designated as undrawn capacity under our asset-specific financings may only be used to satisfy our future funding obligations on the respective underlying pledged loan. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had four and seven note-on-note financing agreements, respectively. These asset-specific financing arrangements allow for additional advances up to a specified cap. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the note-on-note financing agreements were secured by four and seven particular loans held for investment, respectively. The Company’s notes payable have the following guarantees: (1) Deutsche Bank and Bank of the Ozarks: Holdco has provided funding guarantees under which Holdco guarantees the funding obligations of the special purpose lending entity in limited circumstances. In addition, under the Deutsche Bank and Bank of the Ozarks asset-specific financings, Holdco has delivered limited non-recourse carve-out guarantees in favor of the lenders as additional credit support for the financings. These guarantees trigger recourse to Holdco as a result of certain “bad boy” defaults for actual losses incurred by such party, or the entire outstanding obligations of the financing borrower, depending on the nature of the “bad boy” default in question; and (2) BMO Harris: Holdco has delivered a payment guarantee in favor of the lender as additional credit support for the financing. The liability of Holdco under this guarantee is generally capped at 25% of the outstanding obligations of the special purpose subsidiary which is the primary obligor under the financing. In addition, Holdco has delivered a non-recourse carveout guarantee, which can trigger recourse to Holdco as a result of certain “bad boy” defaults for losses incurred by BMO Harris or the entire outstanding obligations of the financing borrower, depending on the nature of the “bad boy” default in question. All notes payable at June 30, 2018 are guaranteed by Holdco, and the agreements include guarantor covenants regarding liquid assets and net worth requirements. One of these loans at June 30, 2018 is 25% recourse to Holdco. The Company believes it was in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. Secured Revolving Repurchase Agreements The Company utilizes secured revolving repurchase agreements to finance the direct origination or acquisition of commercial real estate mortgage loans and CMBS. Under these secured revolving repurchase agreements, the Company transfers all of its rights, title and interest in the loans or CMBS to the repurchase counterparty in exchange for cash, and simultaneously agrees to reacquire the asset at a future date for an amount equal to the cash exchanged plus an interest factor. The repurchase counterparty collects all principal and interest on related loans or CMBS and remits to the Company only the net after collecting its interest and other fees. The loan and CMBS investment related secured revolving repurchase agreements are 25% and 100% recourse to Holdco, respectively. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had five secured revolving repurchase agreements to finance its loan investing activities. Credit spreads vary depending upon the collateral type and advance rate. Assets pledged at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 consisted of 50 and 48 mortgage loans, respectively.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	(8) Fair Value Measurements The Company’s consolidated balance sheet includes Level I fair value measurements related to cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accrued liabilities. At June 30, 2018, the Company had $33.9 million invested in money market funds with original maturities of less than 90 days. The carrying values of these financial assets and liabilities are reasonable estimates of fair value because of the short-term maturities of these instruments. The consolidated balance sheet also includes Loans Held for Investment, a collateralized loan obligation (as of June 30, 2018), and secured financing arrangements that are considered Level III fair value measurements that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but are subject to fair value adjustments utilizing the fair value of the underlying collateral when there is evidence of impairment. The Company did not have any non-recurring fair value items as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The following tables provide information about financial assets and liabilities not carried at fair value on a recurring basis in our consolidated balance sheet (dollars in thousands): June 30, 2018 Carrying Value Level I Level II Level III Financial Assets Loans Held for Investment $ 3,805,551 $ — $ — $ 3,831,838 Financial Liabilities CLO (TRTX 2018-FL1) 734,030 — — 734,030 Secured Financing Arrangements 2,152,641 — — 2,152,641 December 31, 2017 Carrying Value Level I Level II Level III Financial Assets Loans Held for Investment $ 3,175,672 $ — $ — $ 3,202,150 Financial Liabilities Secured Financing Arrangements 2,114,990 — — 2,114,990 Level III fair values were determined based on standardized valuation models and significant unobservable market inputs, including holding period, discount rates based on loan to value, property type and loan pricing expectations developed by the Manager that were corroborated with other institutional lenders to determine a market spread that was added to the one-month LIBOR forward curve. There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities within the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended June 30, 2018 or year ended December 31, 2017. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the estimated fair value of loans held for investment was $3.8 billion and $3.2 billion, respectively. The weighted average gross spread at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was 4.3% and 4.8%, respectively. The weighted average years to maturity at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was 3.8 years and 3.6 years, respectively, assuming full extension of all loans. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the carrying value of the secured financing agreements approximates fair value as current borrowing spreads reflect market terms. At June 30, 2018, the carrying value of the collateralized loan obligation (TRTX 2018-FL1) approximates fair value as current borrowing spreads reflect market terms.

Income Taxes	(9) Income Taxes As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company indirectly owned 100% of the equity of multiple taxable REIT subsidiaries, including certain of its TRTX 2018-FL1 subsidiaries (collectively, “TRS”). As a result, the Company’s TRS had operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2018. TRS is subject to applicable U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income tax on its taxable income. In addition, as a REIT, the Company also may be subject to a 100% excise tax on certain transactions between it and its TRS that are not conducted on an arm’s-length basis. The Company files income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction as well as various state and local jurisdictions. The filings are subject to normal reviews by regulatory agencies until the related statute of limitations expires, with open tax years for all years since the Company’s initial capitalization in 2014. The years open to examination range from 2014 to present. ASC 740 also prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company has analyzed its various federal and state filing positions and believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions are well documented and supported. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, based on the Company’s evaluation, there is no reserve for any uncertain income tax positions. The Company’s policy is to classify interest and penalties associated with underpayment of U.S. federal and state income taxes, if any, as a component of general and administrative expense on its consolidated statements of income. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, the Company did not have interest or penalties associated with the underpayment of any income taxes. For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company incurred no federal, state and local tax expense relating to its TRS. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company incurred $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, of federal, state and local tax expense relating to its TRS. At June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s effective tax rate was 0.40% and 0.29%, respectively. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had no deferred tax assets or liabilities.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
Related Party Transactions	(10) Related Party Transactions Management Agreements Post-IPO Management Agreement The Company is externally managed and advised by the Manager. During the year ended December 31, 2017, upon the completion of the Company’s initial public offering on July 25, 2017, the pre-IPO Management Agreement (as defined below) terminated without payment of any termination fee to the Manager, and the Company entered into a new management agreement with the Manager (the “Management Agreement”). On May 2, 2018, the Company and the Manager amended the Management Agreement solely for the purpose of amending the definitions of “Equity,” “Core Earnings” and “Incentive Compensation” in the Management Agreement. The changes were effected to include equity issued by subsidiaries of the Company in the definition of Equity, and to exclude distributions on equity issued by subsidiaries from the calculation of the Manager’s Incentive Compensation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the management fee and incentive management fee were calculated under the Management Agreement. Pursuant to the Management Agreement, the Company pays the Manager a base management fee equal to the greater of $250,000 per annum ($62,500 per quarter) and 1.50% per annum (0.375% per quarter) of the Company’s “Equity.” The base management fee is payable in cash, quarterly in arrears. As amended, “Equity” means (a) the sum of (1) the net proceeds received by the Company and, without duplication, the Company’s subsidiaries, from all issuances of the Company’s and the subsidiaries’ equity securities, including for the avoidance of doubt issuances of common stock and Class A common stock by the Company prior to the completion of the Company’s initial public offering (for purposes of calculating this amount, the net proceeds received by the Company from all issuances of the Company’s outstanding common stock and Class A common stock prior to the completion of the Company’s initial public offering equals approximately $1.0 billion), plus (2) the value of contributions, including, without limitation, contributions of assets or interests in assets in exchange for equity securities, made by persons other than the Company or a subsidiary of the Company, from time to time, to the capital of the Company or another subsidiary of the Company plus (3) the Company’s cumulative Core Earnings for the period commencing on the completion of the Company’s initial public offering to the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter, and (b) less (1) any distributions made by the Company to the holders of the Company’s equity securities and any distributions made by the Company’s subsidiaries to the holders of the subsidiaries’ equity securities (other than to the Company or another subsidiary of the Company) following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering, (2) any amount that the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries has paid to repurchase for cash the Company’s common stock or Class A common stock following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering and (3) any Incentive Compensation earned by the Manager following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering. With respect to that portion of the period from and after the completion of the Company’s initial public offering that is used in the calculation of Incentive Compensation or the base management fee, all items in the foregoing sentence (other than the Company’s cumulative Core Earnings) will be calculated on a daily weighted average basis. The Manager is entitled to incentive compensation which is calculated and payable in cash with respect to each calendar quarter following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering (or part thereof that the Management Agreement is in effect) in arrears in an amount, not less than zero, equal to the difference between: (1) the product of (a) 20% and (b) the difference between (i) the Company’s Core Earnings for the most recent 12-month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters, if applicable), including the calendar quarter (or part thereof) for which the calculation of incentive compensation is being made (the “applicable period”), and (ii) the product of (A) the Company’s Equity in the most recent 12-month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters, if applicable), including the applicable period, and (B) 7% per annum; and (2) the sum of any incentive compensation paid to the Manager with respect to the first three calendar quarters of the most recent 12-month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters preceding the applicable period, if applicable). No incentive compensation is payable to the Manager with respect to any calendar quarter unless Core Earnings for the 12 most recently completed calendar quarters (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering) is greater than zero. For purposes of calculating the Manager’s incentive compensation, the Management Agreement, as amended, specifies that equity securities of the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries that are entitled to a specified periodic distribution or have other debt characteristics will not constitute equity securities and will not be included in “Equity” for the purpose of calculating incentive compensation. Instead, the aggregate distribution amount that accrues to such equity securities during the calendar quarter of such calculation will be subtracted from Core Earnings, before incentive compensation for purposes of calculating incentive compensation, unless such distribution is otherwise excluded from Core Earnings. As amended, “Core Earnings” means the net income (loss) attributable to the holders of the Company’s common stock and Class A common stock and, without duplication, the holders of the Company’s subsidiaries’ equity securities (other than the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries), computed in accordance with GAAP, including realized gains and losses not otherwise included in net income (loss), and excluding (i) non-cash equity compensation expense, (ii) the Incentive Compensation, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) any unrealized gains or losses or other similar non-cash items that are included in net income for the applicable period, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income or loss or in net income and (v) one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP and certain material non-cash income or expense items, in each case after discussions between the Manager and the Company’s independent directors and approved by a majority of the Company’s independent directors. The Company is required to reimburse the Manager or its affiliates for documented costs and expenses incurred by it and its affiliates on the Company’s behalf except those specifically required to be borne by the Manager or its affiliates under the Management Agreement. The Company’s reimbursement obligation is not subject to any dollar limitation. The Manager or its affiliates is responsible for, and the Company will not reimburse the Manager or its affiliates for, the expenses related to the personnel of the Manager and its affiliates who provide services to the Company. However, the Company will reimburse the Manager for the Company’s allocable share of the compensation (including, without limitation, annual base salary, bonus, any related withholding taxes and employee benefits) paid to (1) the Manager’s personnel serving as the Company’s chief financial officer based on the percentage of his or her time spent managing the Company’s affairs and (2) other corporate finance, tax, accounting, internal audit, legal risk management, operations, compliance and other non-investment personnel of the Manager or its affiliates who spend all or a portion of their time managing the Company’s affairs, based on the percentage of time devoted by such personnel to the Company’s and the Company’s subsidiaries’ affairs. Pre-IPO Management Agreement Through July 24, 2017, the Company paid the Manager a management fee in accordance with the management agreement which was executed on December 15, 2014 (the “pre-IPO Management Agreement”). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the management fee and incentive management fee were calculated under the pre-IPO Management Agreement. Under the pre-IPO Management Agreement, the management fee was equal to 1.25% of the Company’s stockholders’ equity per annum, and was calculated and payable quarterly in arrears. For purposes of calculating the management fee under the pre-IPO Management Agreement, stockholders’ equity meant: (i) the sum of (A) the net proceeds received by the Company from all issuances of the Company’s common stock, plus (B) the Company’s cumulative Core Earnings from and after the date of the pre-IPO Management Agreement to the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter, (ii) less (A) any distributions to the Company’s stockholders from and after the date of the pre-IPO Management Agreement, (B) any amount that the Company or any of its subsidiaries had paid to repurchase the Company’s common stock since the date of the pre-IPO Management Agreement, and (C) any incentive management fee paid from and after the date of the pre-IPO Management Agreement. With respect to that portion of the period from and after the date of the pre-IPO Management Agreement that was used in any calculation of the incentive management fee or the management fee, all items in the foregoing sentence (other than clause (i) (B)) were calculated on a daily weighted average basis. In addition, pursuant to the pre-IPO Management Agreement, the Manager was entitled to an incentive management fee each calendar quarter in arrears in an amount, not less than zero, equal to (I) the product of (i) 16% and (ii) the positive sum, if any, remaining after (A) Core Earnings of the Company for the previous 12 month period were reduced by (B) the product of (1) the average of the Company’s stockholders’ equity as of the end of each calendar quarter during such previous 12 month period, and (2) 7% per annum, minus (II) the sum of any incentive management fee paid to the Manager with respect to the first three calendar quarters of such previous 12 month period; provided, however, that no incentive management fee was payable with respect to any calendar quarter unless Core Earnings for the 12 most recently completed calendar quarters in the aggregate was greater than zero. 2014-CLO Collateral Management Fee The Manager also served as Collateral Manager for the 2014-CLO under a collateral management agreement (the “Collateral Management Agreement”). The collateral management fee was equal to 0.075% per annum of the aggregate par amount of the loans in the 2014-CLO, and was calculated and payable monthly in arrears in cash. Pursuant to an arrangement that the Company had with the Manager prior to the Company’s initial public offering, the Company was entitled to reduce the base management fee payable to the Manager under the pre-IPO Management Agreement by an amount equal to the collateral management fee the Manager was entitled to receive for acting as the collateral manager for the 2014-CLO. After the completion of the initial public offering and prior to the termination of the 2014-CLO, the Manager was entitled to earn a collateral management fee for acting as the collateral manager for the 2014-CLO without any reduction or offset right to the base management fee payable to the Manager under the Management Agreement. As of June 30, 2017, the aggregate par amount of the loans in the 2014-CLO was $184.8 million. Management Fees Incurred and Paid for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017 For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company incurred and paid the following management fees, incentive management fees, and collateral management fees related to its pre-IPO and Post-IPO Management Agreements and the 2014-CLO Collateral Management Agreement (dollars in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 2017 Post-IPO Management Agreement fees incurred $ 5,909 $ — Post-IPO Management Agreement fees paid 5,630 — Pre-IPO Management Agreement and Collateral Management fees incurred — 4,644 Pre-IPO Management Agreement and Collateral Management fees paid — 4,291 Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 2017 Post-IPO Management Agreement fees incurred $ 11,539 $ — Post-IPO Management Agreement fees paid 10,862 — Pre-IPO Management Agreement and Collateral Management fees incurred — 8,944 Pre-IPO Management Agreement and Collateral Management fees paid — 7,356 Management fees, incentive management fees, and collateral management fees included in payable to affiliates on the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 are $5.9 million and $5.2 million, respectively. The Company is responsible for reimbursing the Manager for certain expenses paid by the Manager on behalf of the Company or for certain services provided by the Manager to the Company. Expenses incurred by the Manager and reimbursed by the Company are reflected in the respective consolidated statements of income expense category or the consolidated balance sheets based on the nature of the item. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Manager incurred $0.3 million of expenses that were reimbursable by the Company. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Manager incurred a total of $0.6 million of expenses that were reimbursable by the Company. As of June 30, 2018, $0.3 million remained outstanding and was reimbursable by the Company to the Manager. No amounts were incurred by the Manager and reimbursable by the Company during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. Termination Fee A termination fee will be payable to the Manager upon termination of the Management Agreement by the Company absent a cause event. The termination fee would also be payable to the Manager upon termination of the Management Agreement by the Manager if the Company materially breaches the Management Agreement. The termination fee is equal to three times the sum of (x) the average annual base management fee and (y) the average annual incentive compensation earned by the Manager, in each case during the 24-month period immediately preceding the most recently completed calendar quarter prior to the date of termination or, if such termination occurs prior to July 25, 2019, and such termination fee is payable, the base management fees and the incentive compensation will be annualized for the period from July 25, 2017 to July 25, 2019 based on such fees actually received by the Manager during such period.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings per Share	(11) Earnings per Share The Company calculates its basic and diluted earnings per share using the two-class method for all periods presented, as the unvested restricted shares of its common stock granted to certain employees and affiliates of it Manager, qualify as participating securities. These restricted shares have the same rights as the Company’s other shares of common stock and Class A common stock, including participating in any dividends, and therefore have been included in the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share calculation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, $0.0 million and $0.1 million, respectively of common stock dividends declared and undistributed net income attributable to common stockholders were allocated to unvested shares of our common stock pursuant to stock grants made under the Company’s Incentive Plan (see Note 13 for details). At June 30, 2018, all share and per share data reflect the impact of the common stock and Class A common stock dividend which was paid upon completion of the Company’s initial public offering on July 25, 2017 to holders of record as of July 3, 2017. The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share (common stock and Class A common stock) based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and Class A common stock outstanding (in thousands, except share and per share data): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders $ 26,438 $ 25,320 $ 51,549 $ 48,795 Weighted Average Common Shares Outstanding, Basic and Diluted 60,175,373 48,664,664 60,283,992 48,555,950 Per Common Share Amount, Basic and Diluted $ 0.44 $ 0.52 $ 0.86 $ 1.00

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	(16) Subsequent Events The following events occurred subsequent to June 30, 2018: Senior Mortgage Loan Originations From July 1, 2018 through August 6, 2018, the Company has closed, or is in the process of closing, six first mortgage loans with a total loan commitment amount of $569.1 million. These loans will be funded with a combination of cash-on-hand, cash proceeds from recently sold CMBS investments, and borrowings. Citi Senior Revolving Credit Facility On July 12, 2018, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), as borrower, with Citibank, N.A. as administrative agent and lender, and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. as sole lead arranger and sole lead book running manager. The Credit Agreement governs a secured revolving credit facility with aggregate secured borrowing capacity of up to $160.0 million, subject to borrowing base availability and certain other conditions, which the Company expects to use to finance originations or acquisitions of eligible loans on an interim basis until permanent financing is arranged. The Credit Agreement has an initial maturity date of July 12, 2020, and borrowings will bear interest at an interest rate per annum equal to one-month LIBOR or the applicable base rate plus a margin of 2.25%. The initial advance rate on borrowings under the Credit Agreement with respect to individual pledged assets will be 70%, and will decline over a 90-day period, after which borrowings against that respective asset must be repaid. As of August 6, 2018, no borrowings were outstanding under the Credit Agreement. Sale of a Non-core, Fixed Rate Loan Investment On July 16, 2018, the Company sold its participation interest in a non-core, fixed rate performing loan purchased in December 2014 to a third party for total cash consideration of $2.7 million, including sale costs and fees, recognizing a loss on sale of $0.4 million. Sale of CMBS Investments From July 23, 2018 to July 25, 2018, the Company sold 17 CMBS investments that were primarily held as short-term investments for total cash consideration of $133.3 million, including sale costs and fees, to fund future loan originations, recognizing a loss on sale of $0.1 million. Cash Dividend On July 25, 2018, the Company paid a cash dividend on its common stock and Class A common stock of $0.43 per share, or $25.9 million, to stockholders of record as of June 25, 2018. 10b5-1 Purchase Plan The Company did not repurchase any shares of common stock under the 10b5-1 Purchase Plan from July 1, 2018 through August 6, 2018. The repurchase period under the 10b5-1 Purchase Plan is set to expire on August 21, 2018 or, if sooner, the date on which all the capital committed to the 10b5-1 Purchase Plan has been exhausted. On August 1, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to extend the repurchase period for the remaining capital committed to the 10b5-1 Purchase Plan. No other changes to the terms of the 10b5-1 Purchase Plan have been authorized or are contemplated. As of August 6, 2018, the Company had approximately $12.5 million of remaining capital committed to repurchases of outstanding shares of common stock under the 10b5-1 Purchase Plan. The Company anticipates entering into an amendment to the 10b5-1 Purchase Plan or a new purchase plan sometime in the third quarter of 2018 to effect the extension authorized by the Board of Directors.

Summary of Significant Accoun24

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2018
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The interim consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts, consolidated variable interest entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (see Note 5 for details). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates, and such differences could be material. Significant estimates made in the consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to: impairment; adequacy of provisions for loan losses; and valuation of financial instruments.
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810—Consolidation (“ASC 810”) provides guidance on the identification of a VIE (a variable interest entity for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights) and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIE. An entity is considered a VIE if any of the following applies: (1) the equity investors (if any) lack one or more of the essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest; (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support; or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest. The Company consolidates VIEs in which it is considered to be the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is defined as the entity having both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the VIE’s performance; and (2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE. At each reporting date, the Company reconsiders its primary beneficiary conclusion to determine if its obligation to absorb losses of, or its rights to receive benefits from, the VIE could potentially be more than insignificant, and will consolidate or not consolidate accordingly.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition Interest income on loans is accrued using the interest method based on the contractual terms of the loan, adjusted for credit impairment, if any. The objective of the interest method is to arrive at periodic interest income including recognition of fees and costs at a constant effective yield. Premiums, discounts, and origination fees are amortized or accreted into interest income over the lives of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight line basis when it approximates the interest method. Extension and modification fees are accreted into income on a straight line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the related extension or modification period. Exit fees are accreted into income on a straight line basis, when it approximates the interest method, over the lives of the loans to which they relate unless they can be waived by the Company or a co-lender in connection with a loan refinancing. Prepayment penalties from borrowers are recognized as interest income when received. Certain of the Company’s loan investments have in the past and may in the future provide for additional interest based on the borrower’s operating cash flow or appreciation of the underlying collateral. Such amounts are considered contingent interest and are reflected as interest income only upon certainty of collection. The Company considers a loan to be non-performing and places loans on non-accrual status at such time as: (1) management determines the borrower is incapable of, or has ceased efforts toward, curing the cause of a default; (2) the loan becomes 90 days delinquent; or (3) the loan experiences a maturity default. While on non-accrual status, based on the Company’s judgment as to collectability of principal, loans are either accounted for on a cash basis, where interest income is recognized only upon receipt of cash for principal and interest payments, or on a cost-recovery basis, where all cash receipts reduce a loan’s carrying value, and interest income is only recorded when such carrying value has been fully recovered. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, no loans were placed on non-accrual status and no losses or impairments were recorded to our loan portfolio.
Loans Held for Investment	Loans Held for Investment Loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or repayment, are reported at their outstanding principal balances net of any premiums, discounts, loan origination fees and an allowance for loan losses. Loan origination fees and direct loan origination costs are deferred and recognized in interest income over the estimated life of the loans using the interest method, or on a straight line basis when it approximates the interest method, adjusted for actual prepayments. The Company evaluates each loan classified as a loan held for investment for impairment on a quarterly basis. Impairment occurs when it is deemed probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. If the loan is considered to be impaired, an allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the loan to the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s contractual effective rate, or the fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell, if recovery of the Company’s investment is expected solely from the sale of the collateral. As part of the quarterly impairment review, we evaluate the risk of each loan and assign a risk rating based on a variety of factors, grouped as follows to include (without limitation): (i) loan and credit structure, including the as-is loan-to-value (“LTV”) and structural features; (ii) quality and stability of real estate value and operating cash flow, including debt yield, property type, dynamics of the geographic, property-type and local market, physical condition, stability of cash flow, leasing velocity and quality and diversity of tenancy; (iii) performance against underwritten business plan; and (iv) quality, experience and financial condition of sponsor, borrower and guarantor(s). Based on a 5-point scale, our loans are rated “1” through “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively, which ratings are defined as follows: 1- Outperform—Exceeds performance metrics (for example, technical milestones, occupancy, rents, net operating income) included in original or current credit underwriting and business plan; 2- Meets or Exceeds Expectations—Collateral performance meets or exceeds substantially all performance metrics included in original or current underwriting / business plan; 3- Satisfactory—Collateral performance meets or is on track to meet underwriting; business plan is met or can reasonably be achieved; 4- Underperformance—Collateral performance falls short of original underwriting, material differences exist from business plan, or both; technical milestones have been missed; defaults may exist, or may soon occur absent material improvement; and 5- Risk of Impairment/Default—Collateral performance is significantly worse than underwriting; major variance from business plan; loan covenants or technical milestones have been breached; timely exit from loan via sale or refinancing is questionable. Since Inception, the Company has not recorded asset-specific loan loss reserves, nor has it recognized any impairments on its loan portfolio. Our determination of asset-specific loan loss reserves, should any such reserves be necessary, relies on material estimates regarding the fair value of loan collateral. Such losses could be caused by various factors, including, but not limited to, unanticipated adverse changes in the economy or events adversely affecting specific assets, borrowers, industries in which our borrowers operate or markets in which our borrowers or their properties are located. Significant judgment is required when evaluating loans for impairment. The Company’s loans are typically collateralized by real estate, or in the case of mezzanine loans, by a partnership or similar equity interest in an entity that owns real estate. As a result, the Company regularly evaluates on a loan-by-loan basis the extent and impact of any credit deterioration associated with the performance and/or value of the underlying collateral property as well as the financial and operating capability of the borrower/sponsor. The Company also evaluates the financial strength of loan guarantors, if any, and the borrower’s competency in managing and operating the property or properties. In addition, the Company considers the overall economic environment, real estate sector, and geographic sub-market in which the borrower operates. Such impairment analyses are completed and reviewed by asset management personnel and evaluated by senior management, who utilize various data sources, including (i) periodic financial data such as property occupancy, tenant profile, rental rates, operating expenses, the borrower’s exit plan, and capitalization and discount rates, (ii) site inspections, (iii) sales and financing comparables, (iv) current credit spreads for refinancing and (v) other market data.
Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities	Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities The Company acquires CMBS investments primarily for cash management purposes, and also for investment purposes. The Company designates CMBS investments as available-for-sale on the acquisition date. CMBS investments that are classified as available-for-sale are recorded at fair value in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Additionally, CMBS investments that are not classified as held-to-maturity and which the Company does not hold for the purpose of selling in the near-term, but may dispose of prior to maturity, are also designated as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. The Company’s recognition of interest income from its CMBS, including its amortization of premium and discount, follows the Company’s revenue recognition policy as described above under “Revenue Recognition”. The Company uses a specific identification method when determining the cost of a security sold and the amount of unrealized gain or loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings. Unrealized losses on securities that, in the judgment of management, are other than temporary are charged against earnings as a loss in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Significant valuation inputs are Level II in the fair value hierarchy as described below under “Fair Value Measurements”.
Portfolio Financing Arrangements	Portfolio Financing Arrangements The Company finances certain loan and CMBS investments using secured revolving repurchase agreements, asset-specific financing arrangements (notes payable on the consolidated balance sheets), a senior secured credit facility, and collateralized loan obligations. The related borrowings are recorded as separate liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Interest income earned on the investments and interest expense incurred on the related borrowings are reported separately on the Company’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. In certain instances, the Company creates structural leverage through the co-origination or non-recourse syndication of a senior loan interest to a third party. For all such syndications the Company has completed through June 30, 2018, the Company has transferred 100% of the senior mortgage loan that the Company originated on a non-recourse basis to a third-party lender and has retained as a loan investment a separate mezzanine loan investment secured by a pledge of the equity in the mortgage borrower. With respect to the senior mortgage loan transferred, the Company retains: no control over the mortgage loan; no economic interest in the mortgage loan; and no recourse to the purchaser or the borrower. Consequently, based on these circumstances and because the Company does not have any continuing involvement with the transferred senior mortgage loan, these syndications are accounted for as sales under GAAP and are removed from the Company’s consolidated financial statements at the time of transfer. The Company’s consolidated balance sheets only include the separate mezzanine loan remaining after the transfer, and not the non-consolidated senior loan interest sold or co-originated that the Company transferred.
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements The Company follows ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures “ASC 820-10” Level I Level II Level III For certain financial instruments, the various inputs that management uses to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for such financial instrument is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial instrument. The Company may use valuation techniques consistent with the market and income approaches to measure the fair value of its assets and liabilities. The market approach uses third-party valuations and information obtained from market transactions involving identical or similar assets or liabilities. The income approach uses projections of the future economic benefits of an instrument to determine its fair value, such as in the discounted cash flow methodology. The inputs or methodology used for valuing financial instruments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these financial instruments. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are assumed to occur at the end of the reporting period.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Company qualifies and has elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its initial taxable year ended December 31, 2014. To the extent that it annually distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to stockholders and complies with various other requirements as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on its distributed REIT taxable income. If the Company fails to continue to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year and does not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes at regular corporate rates beginning with the year in which it fails to qualify and may be precluded from being able to elect to be treated as a REIT for the Company’s four subsequent taxable years. Even though the Company currently qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain U.S. federal, state, local and foreign taxes on the Company’s income and property and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on the Company’s undistributed REIT taxable income. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the enactment date occurs. Under ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes
Earnings per Common Share	Earnings per Common Share The Company utilizes the two-class method when assessing participating securities to calculate earnings per common share. Basic and diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders (i.e., holders of common stock and Class A common stock), by the weighted-average number of common shares (both common stock and Class A common stock) outstanding during the period. The preferences, rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption of the Class A common stock are identical to the common stock, except (1) the Class A common stock is not a “margin security” as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System (and rulings and interpretations thereunder) and may not be listed on a national securities exchange or a national market system and (2) each share of Class A common stock is convertible at any time or from time to time, at the option of the holder, for one fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock. The Class A common stock votes together with the common stock as a single class. Shares of Class A common stock have been issued to, and are owned by, certain individuals or entities affiliated with the Company’s external manager, TPG RE Finance Trust Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Manager”), and the sale or conversion to common stock by investors of such shares of Class A common stock is subject to certain restrictions. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by including the effect of dilutive securities. The Company accounts for unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable dividend rights or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) as participating securities, which are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method.
Share-Based Compensation	Share-Based Compensation Share-based compensation consists of awards issued by the Company to certain employees of affiliates of our Manager and certain members of our Board of Directors. These share-based awards generally vest in installments over a fixed period of time. Compensation expense is recognized in net income on a variable basis over the applicable award vesting period based on the value of our common stock. Forfeitures of share-based awards are recognized as they occur.
Deferred Financing Costs	Deferred Financing Costs Deferred financing costs are reflected net of the collateralized loan obligation and secured financing agreements on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. These costs are amortized in interest expense using the interest method or on a straight line basis when it approximates the interest method over the life of the related obligations.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in banks or invested in money market funds with original maturities of less than 90 days. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality institutions to minimize credit risk exposure. The Company maintains cash accounts at several financial institutions, which are insured up to a maximum of $250,000 per account as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The balances in these accounts may exceed the insured limits.
Restricted Cash	Restricted Cash Restricted cash primarily represents deposit proceeds from potential borrowers which may be returned to borrowers, after deducting transaction costs paid by the Company for the benefit of the borrowers, upon the closing of a loan transaction.
Accounts Receivable from Servicer/Trustee	Accounts Receivable from Servicer/Trustee Accounts receivable from Servicer/Trustee represents cash proceeds from loan and CMBS investment activities that have not been remitted to the Company based on contractual procedures previously agreed upon. Amounts are generally held by the Servicer/Trustee for less than 60 days before being remitted to the Company.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 will replace the “incurred loss” model under existing guidance with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost, and require entities to record allowances for available-for-sale debt securities rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they do today under the other-than-temporary impairment model. Upon adoption, and resulting from this change, the Company expects that it will be required to record a loan loss reserve at origination or acquisition of an individual loan or a loan portfolio. ASU 2016-13 also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and is to be adopted through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2016-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”). ASU 2018-07 expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The amendments state that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment awards. ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than an entity’s adoption of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2018-07 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Termination fee, description						A termination fee will be payable to the Manager upon termination of the Management Agreement by the Company absent a cause event. The termination fee would also be payable to the Manager upon termination of the Management Agreement by the Manager if the Company materially breaches the Management Agreement. The termination fee is equal to three times the sum of (x) the average annual base management fee and (y) the average annual incentive compensation earned by the Manager, in each case during the 24-month period immediately preceding the most recently completed calendar quarter prior to the date of termination or, if such termination occurs prior to July 25, 2019, and such termination fee is payable, the base management fees and the incentive compensation will be annualized for the period from July 25, 2017 to July 25, 2019 based on such fees actually received by the Manager during such period

Description of management and incentive management fee calculation						For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the management fee and incentive management fee were calculated under the Management Agreement.
Incentive management fee, description						The Manager is entitled to incentive compensation which is calculated and payable in cash with respect to each calendar quarter following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering (or part thereof that the Management Agreement is in effect) in arrears in an amount, not less than zero, equal to the difference between: (1) the product of (a) 20% and (b) the difference between (i) the Company’s Core Earnings for the most recent 12-month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters, if applicable), including the calendar quarter (or part thereof) for which the calculation of incentive compensation is being made (the “applicable period”), and (ii) the product of (A) the Company’s Equity in the most recent 12-month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters, if applicable), including the applicable period, and (B) 7% per annum; and (2) the sum of any incentive compensation paid to the Manager with respect to the first three calendar quarters of the most recent 12-month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters preceding the applicable period, if applicable). No incentive compensation is payable to the Manager with respect to any calendar quarter unless Core Earnings for the 12 most recently completed calendar quarters (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering) is greater than zero. For purposes of calculating the Manager’s incentive compensation, the Management Agreement, as amended, specifies that equity securities of the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries that are entitled to a specified periodic distribution or have other debt characteristics will not constitute equity securities and will not be included in “Equity” for the purpose of calculating incentive compensation. Instead, the aggregate distribution amount that accrues to such equity securities during the calendar quarter of such calculation will be subtracted from Core Earnings, before incentive compensation for purposes of calculating incentive compensation, unless such distribution is otherwise excluded from Core Earnings

Description of management and incentive management fee calculation						For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the management fee and incentive management fee were calculated under the pre-IPO Management Agreement.
Incentive management fee, description						Manager was entitled to an incentive management fee each calendar quarter in arrears in an amount, not less than zero, equal to (I) the product of (i) 16% and (ii) the positive sum, if any, remaining after (A) Core Earnings of the Company for the previous 12 month period were reduced by (B) the product of (1) the average of the Company’s stockholders’ equity as of the end of each calendar quarter during such previous 12 month period, and (2) 7% per annum, minus (II) the sum of any incentive management fee paid to the Manager with respect to the first three calendar quarters of such previous 12 month period; provided, however, that no incentive management fee was payable with respect to any calendar quarter unless Core Earnings for the 12 most recently completed calendar quarters in the aggregate was greater than zero.
