Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization	Note 1. Organ ization Claros Mortgage Trust, Inc. (referred to throughout this report as the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our”) is a Maryland Corporation formed on April 29, 2015 for the purpose of creating a diversified portfolio of income-producing loans collateralized by institutional quality commercial real estate. We commenced operations on August 25, 2015 (“Commencement of Operations”) and generally conduct our business through wholly-owned subsidiaries. Unless the context requires otherwise, any references to the Company refers to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company is traded on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the symbol “CMTG.” We elected and intend to maintain our qualification to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”), for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As such, we generally are not subject to U.S. federal income tax on that portion of our income that we distribute to stockholders. See Note 13 – Income Taxes for further detail. We are externally managed by Claros REIT Management LP (the “Manager”), our affiliate, through a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) pursuant to which our Manager provides a management team and other professionals who are responsible for implementing our business strategy, subject to the supervision of our board of directors (the “Board”). In exchange for its services, our Manager is entitled to management fees and, upon the achievement of required performance hurdles, incentive fees. See Note 11 – Related Party Transactions for further detail.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We consolidate all entities that are controlled either through majority ownership or voting rights. We also identify entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights (a variable interest entity or “VIE”) using the analysis as set forth in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, and determine when and which variable interest holder, if any, should consolidate the VIE. We do not have any consolidated variable interest entities as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 . All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates that are particularly susceptible to our judgment include, but are not limited to, the adequacy of the current expected credit loss reserve and the impairment of certain assets. Risks and Uncertainties In the normal course of business, we primarily encounter two significant types of economic risk: credit and market. Credit risk is the risk of default on our loans receivable that results from a borrower’s or counterparty’s inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk reflects changes in the value of the loans receivable due to changes in interest rates, spreads or other market factors, including risks that impact the value of the collateral underlying our loans. We believe that the carrying values of our loans receivable are reasonable taking into consideration these risks. Tax Risks - We are subject to significant tax risks. If we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT in a given taxable year, we may be subject to penalties as well as federal, state and local income tax on our taxable income, which could be material. We will also not be able to qualify as a REIT for the subsequent four taxable years, unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions. A REIT must distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to its stockholders, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains. In addition to the 90% distribution requirement, a REIT is subject to a nondeductible excise tax if it fails to make certain minimum distributions by calendar year-end. The excise tax imposed is equal to 4% of the excess of the required distribution (specified under U.S. federal tax law) over the distributed amount for such year. Distribution of the remaining balance may extend until timely filing of the REIT’s tax return in the subsequent taxable year. Qualifying distributions of taxable income are deductible by a REIT in computing taxable income. Regulatory Risks - We are subject to significant regulatory risks. If we were unable to rely upon an exemption from registration available under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, we could be required to restructure our assets or activities, including the disposition of assets during periods of adverse market conditions that could result in material losses to us. Loans Receivable Held-for-Investment Loans that we have originated or acquired and have the intent and ability to hold to maturity or payoff are reported at their unpaid principal balances net of any unearned income, unamortized deferred fees and expected credit losses, if applicable. Loan origination, extension, and exit fees are deferred and recognized in interest income over the estimated life of the loans using the effective interest method, adjusted for actual prepayments. Interests in Loans Receivable Held-for-Investment Loans that we have acquired in a transfer that did not meet the qualifications of a sale and have the intent and ability to hold to maturity or payoff are reported at their unpaid principal balances net of any unearned income, unamortized deferred fees and expected credit losses, if applicable. Loan origination, extension, and exit fees are deferred and recognized in interest income over the estimated life of the loans using the effective interest method, adjusted for actual prepayments. Loans Receivable Held-for-Sale Loans that we have originated or acquired and for which we have an intent and ability to sell are classified as loans receivable held-for-sale and are reflected on our consolidated balance sheet at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value. If the estimated fair value of expected loan proceeds is below the loan’s amortized cost as a result of a diminution in the value of the collateral asset, a specific CECL reserve is recorded and subsequently charged-off. Non-cash Advances in Lieu of Interest We hold certain loans whereby a portion of the loan’s unfunded commitment may be used to satisfy monthly debt service, so long as certain conditions are met. As a result, such loan’s unpaid principal balance increases on the interest payment date and we do not receive cash. This feature is referred to as non-cash advance in lieu of interest, and the increase in unpaid principal balance is reflected in the operating section of our consolidated statements of cash flows, as opposed to the investing section as if the cash had been directly advanced to a borrower. We also have certain financings that allow for non-cash advances in lieu of interest, and the increase in unpaid principal balance is reflected in the operating section of our consolidated statements of cash flows, as opposed to the financing section as if cash had been directly received by us. In either case, repayments of non-cash advances in lieu of interest for both our loans receivable and our financings are reflected in the operating section of our consolidated statements of cash flows. Current Expected Credit Losses The current expected credit loss (“CECL”) reserve required under ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses – Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326)” (“ASU 2016-13”), reflects our current estimate of potential credit losses related to our loan portfolio. Changes to the CECL reserve are recognized through a provision for or reversal of current expected credit loss reserve on our consolidated statements of operations. ASU 2016-13 specifies the reserve should be based on relevant information about past events, including historical loss experience, current loan portfolio, market conditions and reasonable and supportable macroeconomic forecasts for the duration of each loan. General CECL Reserve Our loans are typically collateralized by real estate, or in the case of mezzanine loans, by an equity interest in an entity that owns real estate. We consider key credit quality indicators in underwriting loans and estimating credit losses, including: the capitalization of borrowers and sponsors; the expertise of the borrowers and sponsors in a particular real estate sector and geographic market; collateral type; geographic region; use and occupancy of the property; property market value; loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio; loan amount and lien position; our risk rating for the same and similar loans; and prior experience with the borrower/sponsor. This information is used to assess the financial and operating capability, experience and profitability of the borrower/sponsor. Ultimate repayment of our loans is sensitive to interest rate changes, general economic conditions, liquidity, LTV ratio, existence of a liquid investment sales market for commercial properties, and availability of replacement financing. We regularly evaluate 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, the financial and operating capability of the borrower/sponsor, the financial strength of loan guarantors, if any, and the overall economic environment, real estate sector, and geographic sub-market in which the borrower operates. Such analyses are completed and reviewed by asset management personnel and evaluated by senior management on at least a quarterly basis, utilizing various data sources, including, to the extent available, (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 relevant market data. We arrive at our general CECL reserve using the Weighted Average Remaining Maturity, or WARM method, which is considered an acceptable loss rate method for estimating CECL reserves by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The application of the WARM method to estimate a general CECL reserve requires judgment, including the appropriate historical loan loss reference data, the expected timing and amount of future loan fundings and repayments, the current credit quality of our portfolio, and our expectations of performance and market conditions over the relevant time period. The WARM method requires us to reference historical loan loss data from a comparable data set and apply such loss rate to each of our loans over their expected remaining term, taking into consideration expected economic conditions over the forecasted timeframe. Our general CECL reserve reflects our forecast of the current and future macroeconomic conditions that may impact the performance of the commercial real estate assets securing our loans and the borrower’s ultimate ability to repay. These estimates include unemployment rates, price indices for commercial properties, and market liquidity, all of which may influence the likelihood and magnitude of potential credit losses for our loans during their anticipated term. Additionally, further adjustments may be made based upon loan positions senior to ours, the risk rating of a loan, whether a loan is a construction loan, or the economic conditions specific to the property type of a loan’s underlying collateral. To estimate an annual historical loss rate, we obtained historical loss rate data for loans most comparable to our loan portfolio from a commercial mortgage-backed securities database licensed by a third party, Trepp, LLC, which contains historical loss data from January 1, 1999 through December 31, 2023. We believe this CMBS data is the most relevant, available, and comparable dataset to our portfolio. When evaluating the current and future macroeconomic environment, we consider the aforementioned macroeconomic factors. Historical data for each metric is compared to historical commercial real estate credit losses in order to determine the relationship between the two variables. We use projections of each macroeconomic factor, obtained from a third party, to approximate the impact the macroeconomic outlook may have on our loss rate. Selections of these economic forecasts require judgment about future events that, while based on the information available to us as of the balance sheet date, are ultimately subjective and uncertain, and the actual economic conditions could vary significantly from the estimates we made. Following a reasonable and supportable forecast period, we use a straight-line method of reverting to the historical loss rate. Additionally, we assess the obligation to extend credit through our unfunded loan commitments over each loan’s contractual period, adjusted for projected fundings from interest reserves, if applicable, which is considered in the estimate of the general CECL reserve. For both the funded and unfunded portions of our loans, we consider our internal risk rating of each loan as the primary credit quality indicator underlying our assessment. We evaluate the credit quality of each of our loans receivable on an individual basis and assign a risk rating at least quarterly. We have developed a loan grading system for all of our outstanding loans receivable that are collateralized directly or indirectly by real estate. Grading criteria include, but are not limited to, as-is or as-stabilized debt yield, term of loan, property type, property or collateral location, loan type and other more subjective variables that include, but are not limited to, as-is or as-stabilized collateral value, market conditions, industry conditions and sponsor’s financial stability. While evaluating the credit quality of each loan within our portfolio, we assess these quantitative and qualitative factors as a whole and with no pre-prescribed weight on their impact to our determination of a loan’s risk rating. However, based upon the facts and circumstances for each loan and the overall market conditions, we may consider certain previously mentioned factors more or less relevant than others. We utilize the grading system to determine each loan’s risk of loss and to provide a determination as to whether an individual loan is impaired and whether a specific CECL reserve is necessary. Based on a 5-point scale, the loans are graded “1” through “5,” from less risk to greater risk, which gradings are defined as follows: 1. Very Low Risk 2. Low Risk 3. Medium Risk 4. High Risk/Potential for Loss: A loan that has a risk of realizing a principal loss 5. Impaired/Loss Likely: A loan that has a very high risk of realizing a principal loss or has otherwise incurred a principal loss Specific CECL Reserve In certain circumstances we may determine that a loan is no longer suited for the WARM method due to its unique risk characteristics or where we have deemed the borrower/sponsor to be experiencing financial difficulty and the repayment of the loan’s principal is collateral-dependent. We may instead elect to employ different methods to estimate credit losses that also conform to ASU 2016-13 and related guidance. For such loans, we would separately measure the specific reserve for each loan by using the estimated fair value of the loan’s collateral. If the estimated fair value of the collateral is less than the carrying value of the loan, an asset-specific reserve is created as a component of our overall current expected credit loss reserve. Specific reserves are equal to the excess of a loan’s carrying value to the estimated fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell, if recovery of our investment is expected from the sale of the collateral and such costs will reduce amounts recovered by us. If we have determined that a loan or a portion of a loan is uncollectible, we will write off such portion of the loan through an adjustment to our current expected credit loss reserve. Significant judgment is required in determining impairment and in estimating the resulting credit loss reserve, and actual losses, if any, could materially differ from those estimates. See Note 3 - Loan Portfolio - Current Expected Credit Losses for further detail. Financial Instruments Financial instruments held by us include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, loan principal payments held by servicer, loans receivable held-for-investment, loans receivable held-for-sale, interests in loans receivable held-for-investment, other assets, other liabilities, dividends payable, management fee payable - affiliate, repurchase agreements, term participations, notes payable, loan participations sold, secured term loans and debt related to real estate owned. The estimated fair value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, loan principal payments held by servicer, other assets (excluding the fair value of our interest rate cap), other liabilities, dividends payable, and management fee payable - affiliate approximates their current carrying amount. GAAP requires the categorization of the fair value of financial instruments into three broad levels that form a hierarchy based on the transparency of inputs to the valuation. See Note 8 – Fair Value Measurements for further detail. Cash and Cash Equivalents We consider all investments with original maturities of three months or less, at the time of acquisition, to be cash equivalents. We maintain cash accounts which from time to time exceed the insured maximum of $ 250,000 per account. Restricted Cash Restricted cash includes reserve balances for real estate taxes and capital improvements for our real estate owned hotel portfolio, as well as lockbox accounts held pursuant to the terms of certain financings. Real Estate Owned (and Related Debt) We may assume legal title and/or physical possession of the underlying collateral property of a defaulted loan through foreclosure, a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or an assignment-in-lieu of foreclosure. If we intend to hold, operate or develop the property for a period of at least 12 months, the asset is classified as real estate owned, net on our consolidated balance sheets. If we intend to market the property for sale in the near subsequent term, the asset is classified as real estate held-for-sale on our consolidated balance sheets. Real estate owned is initially recorded at estimated fair value and is subsequently presented net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using a straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from 5 to 40 years and is recognized in depreciation and amortization expense on our consolidated statements of operations. We account for acquisitions of real estate, including foreclosures, deed-in-lieu of foreclosures, or assignment-in-lieu of foreclosures, in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations , which first requires that we determine if the real estate investment is the acquisition of an asset or a business combination. Under this model, we identify and determine the estimated fair value of any assets acquired and liabilities assumed. This generally results in the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the relative fair values of each respective asset and liability. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed generally include land, building, building improvements, tenant improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment, mortgages payable, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, which generally consists of above or below market lease values, in-place lease values, and other lease-related values. In estimating fair values for allocating the purchase price of our real estate owned, we may utilize various methods, including a market approach, which considers recent sales of similar properties, adjusted for differences in location and state of the physical asset, or a replacement cost approach, which considers the composition of physical assets acquired, adjusted based on industry standard information and the remaining useful life of the acquired property. In estimating fair values of intangible assets acquired or liabilities assumed, we consider the estimated cost of leasing our real estate owned assuming the property was vacant, the value of the current lease agreements relative to market-rate leases, and the estimation of total lease-up time including lost rents. In-place, above market, and other lease values, net are included within other assets on our consolidated balance sheets. Below market lease values, net, are included within other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Amortization of in-place and other lease values is recognized in depreciation and amortization expense on our consolidated statements of operations. Amortization of above and below market lease values is recognized in revenue from real estate owned on our consolidated statements of operations. Real estate assets are evaluated for indicators of impairment on a quarterly basis. Factors that we may consider in our impairment analysis include, among others: (1) significant underperformance relative to historical or anticipated operating results; (2) significant negative industry or economic trends; (3) costs necessary to extend the life or improve the real estate asset; (4) significant increase in competition; and (5) ability to hold and dispose of the real estate asset in the ordinary course of business. A real estate asset is considered impaired when the sum of estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the real estate asset over the estimated remaining holding period is less than the carrying amount of such real estate asset. Cash flows include operating cash flows and anticipated capital proceeds generated by the sale of the real estate asset. If the sum of such estimated undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the real estate asset, an impairment charge is recorded equal to the excess of the carrying value of the real estate asset over its estimated fair value. When determining the estimated fair value of a real estate asset, we make certain assumptions including consideration of projected operating cash flows, comparable selling prices and projected cash flows from the eventual disposition of the real estate asset based upon our estimate of a capitalization rate and discount rate. There were no impairments of our real estate assets through December 31, 2023. Debt assumed in a foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or assignment-in-lieu of foreclosure of real estate is recorded at its estimated fair value at the time of the acquisition and is subsequently presented net of unamortized deferred financing costs. As of December 31, 2023 , debt related to real estate owned is non-recourse to us. Equity Method Investment We account for our investments in entities in which we have the ability to significantly influence, but do not have a controlling interest, by using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method for which we have not elected a fair value option, the investment, originally recorded at cost, is adjusted to recognize our share of earnings or losses as they occur and for additional contributions made or distributions received. We look at the nature of the cash distributions received to determine the proper character of cash flow distributions on the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows as either returns on investment, which would be included in operating activities, or returns of investment, which would be included in investing activities. At each reporting period we assess whether there are any indicators of other than temporary impairment of our equity investments. There were no other than temporary impairments of our equity method investment through December 31, 2023 . Derivative Financial Instruments In the normal course of business, we are exposed to the effect of interest rate changes and may undertake one or more strategies to limit these risks through the use of derivatives. We may use derivatives to reduce the impact that changes in interest rates will have on our floating rate assets and floating rate liabilities. Such derivatives may consist of interest rate swaps, interest rate caps, collars, and floors. We recognize derivatives on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value within other assets. To determine the fair value of derivative instruments, we use a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions as of the balance sheet date, such as discounted cash flows and option-pricing models. We have not designated any derivatives as hedges to qualify for hedge accounting for financial reporting purposes and fluctuations in the fair value of derivatives have been recognized as an unrealized gain or loss on interest rate cap in our consolidated statements of operations. Payments received from our counterparties in connection with our derivative are recognized as proceeds from interest rate cap on our consolidated statements of operations. Other Assets Other assets generally include interest receivable, miscellaneous receivables, prepaid expenses, deferred tax asset (net of any valuation allowance), deposits funded relating to unclosed transactions, deferred financing costs, net related to certain secured financings, derivative financial instruments, and certain lease intangible assets, net. Deferred Financing Costs Deferred financing costs included within other assets on our consolidated balance sheets include costs related to the establishment and ongoing operations of our repurchase agreements, term participation facility, and short-term funding facility. These costs are amortized as interest expense using the straight-line method over the contractual term of the repurchase agreements, the contractual term of the short-term funding facility, or the contractual term of the collateral asset for the term participation facility, which may include fees paid to the financing counterparty when financing a specific asset. Costs related to obtaining notes payable, loan participations sold, secured term loans, and debt related to real estate owned are presented on our consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the respective obligations. These costs are amortized over the contractual term of the obligations as interest expense using the effective interest method. Secured Financings We evaluate whether a financing transaction constitutes a sale based on whether (i) the financial asset was legally isolated, (ii) control of the financial asset has been transferred to the transferee, (iii) the transfer imposed any condition that would constrain the transferee from pledging the financial asset received, and (iv) we have continuing involvement with the transferred financial asset. Repurchase Agreements We finance certain of our loans receivable using repurchase agreements, whereby an asset is sold to a counterparty to be repurchased at a later date at a predetermined price. Such arrangements are accounted for as secured financings under GAAP and are presented as a liability on our consolidated balance sheets. Prior to repurchase, interest is incurred to the counterparty based upon the sales price and a predetermined interest rate. Borrowings under the repurchase agreements are partially recourse to us. Term Participation Facility We finance certain of our loans receivable through selling a senior interest to a counterparty. The term participation facility allows us to finance additional loans through a specified date. Such arrangements are accounted for as secured financings under GAAP and are presented as a liability on our consolidated balance sheets. Borrowings under the term participation facility are partially recourse to us. Loan Participations Sold, Net We finance certain of our loans via the sale of a participation in such loan to a counterparty. However, we present the loan participation sold as a liability, net of any unamortized deferred financing costs on our consolidated balance sheets when the arrangement does not qualify as a sale under GAAP. Other than amounts guaranteed by us, these loan participations are non-recourse. Notes Payable, Net We finance certain of our loans receivable using direct financing, collateralized by the loans receivable, which are presented as liability net of any unamortized deferred financing costs on our consolidated balance sheets. Other than amounts guaranteed by us, borrowings under notes payable are non-recourse. Secured Term Loan, Net Our secured term loan is collateralized by a pledge of equity in certain subsidiaries and their related assets and is presented on our consolidated balance sheets net of any unamortized original issue discount. Transaction expenses incurred in connection with our secured term loan are deferred and recognized as interest expense over the life of the loan using the effective interest method. Other Liabilities Other liabilities include interest payable, accrued expenses, our general CECL reserve related to our unfunded loan commitments, reserves and deposits held for loans receivable, and below market lease values, net. Revenue Recognition Interest income from loans receivable is recorded on the accrual basis based on the unpaid principal balance and the contractual terms of the loans. Fees, premiums, discounts and direct costs associated with these loans are initially deferred and recognized as an adjustment to unpaid principal balance until the loan is advanced and are then amortized or accreted into interest income over the term of the loan as an adjustment to yield using the effective interest method based on expected cash flows through the expected recovery period. Income accrual may be suspended for loans when we determine that the payment of income and/or principal is no longer probable. Once income accrual is suspended, any previously recognized interest income deemed uncollectible is reversed against interest income. Factors considered when making this determination include, but are not limited to, our assessment of the underlying collateral value, delinquency in excess of 90 days, and overall market conditions. While on non-accrual status, based on our estimation as to collectability of principal, loans are either accounted for on a cash basis, where interest income is recognized only upon actual receipt of cash, or on a cost-recovery basis, where all cash receipts reduce a loan’s carrying value. If and when a loan is brought back into compliance with its contractual terms, and our Manager has determined that the borrower has demonstrated an ability and willingness to continue to make contractually required payments related to the loan, we resume accrual of interest. Revenue from real estate owned represents revenues associated with the operations of our hotel portfolio and mixed-use property classified as real estate owned. Revenue from the operations of the hotel portfolio is recognized when guestrooms are occupied, services have been rendered or fees have been earned. Hotel revenues consist of room sales, food and beverage sales and other hotel revenues and are recorded net of any discounts, sales and other taxes collected from customers. In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , revenue from our hotel portfolio is recognized when we transfer promised services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those services. ASC 606 includes a five-step framework that requires an entity to: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied. Our contracts generally have a single performance obligation, such as renting a hotel room to a customer, or providing food and beverage to a customer, or providing a hotel property related good or service to a customer. Our performance obligations are generally satisfied at a point in time. Revenue from operations of our mixed-use property is derived from lease agreements with tenants, which we account for under ASC 842, Leases. Such lease agreements generally provide for fixed rent payments, which we recognize on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and variable rent payments, including reimbursement of certain operating expenses and miscellaneous fees, which we recognize when earned. These reimbursements represent revenue attributable to non-lease components for which the timing and pattern of recognition is the same for lease components. We use the practical expedient, which allows us to account for lease and non-lease components as a single component for all classes of underlying assets. We periodically evaluate the collectability of tenant receivables required under the lease agreements. If we determine that collectability is not probable, we reverse any difference between revenue recognized to date and payments that have been collected from the tenant to date as a current period adjustment to revenue from real estate owned

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we sold a senior loan secured by a hospitality property in Austin, TX, with a carrying value of $ 121.9 million and an unpaid principal balance of $ 122.5 million, resulting in gross proceeds of $ 122.5 million and a realized gain of $ 0.6 million. Prior to the sale, the loan was ascribed a risk rating of 3. The financial asset was legally isolated, control of the financial asset has been transferred to the transferee, the transfer imposed no condition that would constrain the transferee from pledging the financial asset received, and we have no continuing involvement with the transferred financial asset. We have determined the transaction constituted a sale. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we sold a senior loan with a carrying value prior to any specific CECL reserves of $ 137.2 million and an unpaid principal balance of $ 137.6 million, resulting in gross proceeds of $ 65.0 million and a principal charge-off of $ 73.0 million. The loan, which was comprised of a portfolio of uncrossed loans, was collateralized by a portfolio of multifamily properties located in San Francisco, CA. Prior to this sale, we had recorded a $ 37.1 million specific CECL reserve against this loan based upon the estimated fair value of the loan’s collateral portfolio. The $ 73.0 million principal charge-off follows the recognition of an incremental specific CECL reserve of $ 35.9 million. During 2023 and through the date of sale, this loan was ascribed a risk rating of 5, was on non-accrual status, and we received $ 1.1 million which was treated as a reduction of our carrying value. The financial asset was legally isolated, control of the financial asset has been transferred to the transferee and the transfer imposed no condition that would constrain the transferee from pledging the financial asset received. Concurrent with the sale, we entered into an agreement with the transferee which provides for a share of cash flows from the senior loan upon the transferee meeting certain financial metrics. As of December 31, 2023, we have not recognized any value to this interest on our consolidated financial statements. We have obtained a true-sale-at-law opinion and have determined the transaction constituted a sale. Through CMTG/TT, a previously consolidated joint venture, we held a 51 % interest in a $ 78.5 million subordinate loan secured by land in New York, NY which had been on non-accrual status since October 2021. During the third quarter of 2022, we directly acquired the $ 73.5 million senior position of the loan and converted the whole loan from a land loan into a construction loan to finance the development of a hotel. The borrower simultaneously committed additional equity to the project. Immediately following the conversion of the loan, we hold $ 115.3 million of total loan commitments, of which $ 78.5 million has been funded and is included in loans receivable held-for-investment on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 , as well as 51 % of the $ 78.5 million subordinate loan held through CMTG/TT which is accounted for under the equity method of accounting on our consolidated financial statements. See Note 4 - Equity Method Investment for further detail. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we modified a loan with a borrower that was experiencing financial difficulties, resulting in a maturity extension to June 10, 2024 . As of December 31, 2023 , the loan had total commitments and an amortized cost basis of $ 76.4 million, respectively, represents approximately 1.1 % of total loans receivable held-for-investment and is current on interest payments. The loan is considered in determining our general CECL reserve. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we modified a loan with a borrower that was experiencing financial difficulties, resulting in a decrease in the index rate floor from 1.57 % to 1.00 % and modified extension requirements. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we further modi fied this loan to provide for a maturity extension to September 18, 2023 . As of December 31, 2023 , the loan had total commitments and an amortized cost basis of $ 87.8 million, respectively, represents approximately 1.3 % of total loans receivable held-for-investment, is current on interest payments, and is in maturity default. The loan is considered in determining our general CECL reserve. Our loans receivable held-for-sale as of December 31, 2023 were comprised of the following loans ($ in thousands): Property Type Location Loan Commitment Unpaid Principal Balance Carrying Value Before Principal Charge-Off Principal Held-For-Sale Carrying Value For Sale Condo FL $ 160,000 $ 158,180 $ 157,346 $ - $ 157,346 Multifamily FL 77,115 76,580 76,275 - 76,275 Mixed-Use FL 141,791 36,773 35,556 ( 7,468 ) 28,088 Total $ 378,906 $ 271,533 $ 269,177 $ ( 7,468 ) $ 261,709 In January of 2024, we so ld these three senior loans to an unaffiliated purchaser. The principal charge-off follows the recognition of an incremental specific CECL reserve in the same amount and is allocated and attributable to the construction status of one loan’s collateral asset and such loan’s $ 105.0 million of remaining unfunded commitments. As of September 30, 2023, the loans were ascribed loan risk ratings ranging from 2 to 3. As of December 31, 2023, we determined that these loans met the held-for-sale criteria and were not considered in determining our general CECL reserve.

Loan Risk Ratings As further described in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, we evaluate the credit quality of our loan portfolio on a quarterly basis. In conjunction with our quarterly loan portfolio review, we assess the risk factors of each loan and assign a risk rating based on several factors, including current loan-to-value, debt yield, structure, cash flow volatility, exit plan, current market conditions and sponsorship level. While evaluating the credit quality of each loan within our portfolio, we assess these quantitative and qualitative factors as a whole and with no pre-prescribed weight on their impact to our determination of a loan’s risk rating. However, based upon the facts and circumstances for each loan and the current market conditions, we may consider certain previously mentioned factors more or less relevant than others. Loans are rated “1” (less risk) through “5” (greater risk), which ratings are defined in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The following tables allocate the principal balance and carrying value of our loans receivable held-for-investment based on our internal risk ratings as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 ($ in thousands): December 31, 2023 Risk Rating Number of Loans Unpaid Principal Balance Carrying Value (1) % of Total of Carrying Value 1 - $ - $ - 0 % 2 - - - 0 % 3 45 5,169,731 5,148,188 74 % 4 15 1,536,748 1,534,829 22 % 5 5 338,045 264,779 4 % 65 $ 7,044,524 $ 6,947,796 100 % General CECL reserve ( 70,371 ) $ 6,877,425 (1) Net of specific CECL reserves of $ 72.6 million.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded a provision for current expected credit losses of $ 153.7 million , which consisted of a $ 159.6 million increase in our specific CECL reserve prior to principal charge-offs, and a reversal of $ 6.0 million of general CECL reserves. The reversal of general CECL reserves was primarily attributable to the seasoning of our portfolio and a reduction in the size of our loan portfolio subject to determination of the general CECL reserve, partially offset by deteriorating macroeconomic conditions. As of December 31, 2023, our total current expected credit loss reserve was $ 152.7 million. See discussion above regarding principal charge-offs related to loans classified as held-for-sale as of December 31, 2023.

The increase in the total current expected credit loss reserve was primarily attributable to additional specific CECL reserves, an increase in the size of the portfolio and deteriorating macroeconomic conditions. As of December 31, 2022 , our total current expected credit loss reserve was $ 146.4 million.

The loan, which was comprised of a portfolio of uncrossed loans, was collateralized by a portfolio of multifamily properties located in San Francisco, CA. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded an additional specific CECL reserve of $ 18.8 million due to a revised valuation of the collateral properties. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we sold the loan and recorded a principal charge-off of $ 73.0 million following the recognition of an incremental specific CECL reserve of $ 35.9 million due to a further decline in the value of the collateral properties. Effective December 1, 2022 and through the date of the loan sale, the loan was placed on non-accrual status.

Prior to obtaining legal title to the collateral and while the loan was on non-accrual status during 2023, we recognized $ 8.3 million of interest income. Fair market values used to determine specific CECL reserves are calculated using a discounted cash flow model, a sales comparison approach, or a market capitalization approach. Estimates of fair market values used to determine specific CECL reserves as of December 31, 2023 include assumptions of property specific cash flows over estimated h olding periods, assumptions of property redevelopment costs, discount rates ranging from 7.5 % to 9.5 %, and market and terminal capitalization rates ranging from 6.0 % to 8.3 %. These assump tions are based upon the nature of the properties, recent sales and lease comparables, and anticipated real estate and capital market conditions. Our primary credit quality indicator for our current loan portfolio is our internal risk rating, which is discussed in detail above.

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract]
Equity Method Investment	Note 4. Equity Method Investment On June 8, 2016, we acquired a 51 % interest in CMTG/TT upon commencement of its operations. During its active investment period, CMTG/TT originated loans collateralized by institutional quality commercial real estate. CMTG/TT has been consolidated in our financial statements from its inception through July 31, 2022. On August 1, 2022, the sole remaining loan held by this joint venture was converted to a new construction loan, and we simultaneously amended the operating agreement of CMTG/TT. Effective August 1, 2022, we are not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of CMTG/TT in accordance with ASC 810 and do not consolidate the joint venture. We did not recognize a gain or loss as this transaction occurred simultaneously with the conversion of the aforementioned loan, and thus there was no change in the underlying value of our 51 % equity interest in CMTG/TT. See Note 3 - Loan Portfolio for further detail. Effective April 1, 2023, the sole remaining loan held by CMTG/TT was placed on non-accrual status. As of December 31, 2023 , the carrying value of our 51 % equity interest in CMTG/TT approximated $ 42.5 million .

Real Estate Owned, Disclosure of Detailed Components [Abstract]
Real Estate Owned	Note 5. Real Estate Owned On February 8, 2021, we acquired legal title to a portfolio of seven limited service hotels located in New York, NY through a foreclosure. Prior to the foreclosure, the hotel portfolio represented the collateral for a mezzanine loan held by us with an unpaid principal balance of $ 103.9 million and a securitized senior mortgage with an unpaid principal balance of $ 300.0 million held by third parties. Both loans were in default as a result of the borrower failing to pay debt service. Upon foreclosure, we assumed the securitized senior mortgage, which is non-recourse to us, and recorded a gain of $ 1.4 million based upon the hotel portfolio’s $ 414.0 million estimated fair value as determined by a third-party appraisal. The estimated fair value was determined using discount rates ranging from 8.50 % to 8.75 % and a terminal capitalization rate of 6.0 %. In accordance wi th ASC 805, we allocated the estimated fair value of the hotel portfolio $ 123.1 to land and $ 290.9 million to building and improvements. During the year ended December 31, 2023 , we recorded an out-of-period adjustment of $ 4.2 million, representing an over accrual of accounts payable assumed upon the foreclosure of our hotel portfolio and, accordingly, we recorded an adjustment to correct the prior period understatement of the gain on foreclosure of our hotel portfolio. This is reflected as an adjustment to gain on foreclosure on our consolidated statement of operations during the year ended December 31, 2023, and such amount was not deemed to be material to the current period or to any prior periods presented. See Note 6 - Debt Obligations - Debt Related to Real Estate Owned, Net for further detail on the assumed senior securitized mortgage. On June 30, 2023, we acquired legal title to a mixed-use property located in New York, NY and the equity interests therein through an assignment-in-lieu of foreclosure. The mixed-use property contains office, retail, and signage components. Prior to June 30, 2023, the mixed-use property and a pledge of equity interests therein represented the collateral for a senior loan with an unpaid principal balance of $ 208.8 million.

Derivatives	Note 7. Derivatives As part of the agreement to amend the terms of our debt related to real estate owned on June 2, 2021, we acquired an interest rate cap with a notional amount of $ 290.0 million, a strike rate of 3.00 % and a maturity date of February 15, 2024 for $ 275,000 . The interest rate cap effectively limits the maximum interest rate of our debt related to real estate owned to 5.83 %. Changes in the fair value of our interest rate cap are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on interest rate cap on our consolidated statements of operations and the fair value is recorded in other assets on our consolidated balance sheets. Proceeds received from our counterparty related to the interest rate cap are recorded as proceeds from interest rate cap on our consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the interest rate cap is $ 0.9 million and $ 6.0 million at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, we recognized $ 6.1 million, $ 0.5 million, and $ 0 , respectively, of proceeds from interest rate cap. On February 7, 2024, we modified our debt related to real estate owned and concurrently purchased an interest rate cap for $ 0.5 million which provides for a strike rate of 5.00 % through the extended contractual maturity date.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Note 8. Fair Value Measurements ASC 820, “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ” establishes a framework for measuring fair value as well as disclosures about fair value measurements. It emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the standards establish a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy). Level 1 inputs utilize unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability other than quoted prices, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement fall is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. Financial Instruments Reported at Fair Value The fair value of our interest rate cap is determined by using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rates rise above the strike rate of the interest rate cap. The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts on the interest rate cap are based on a third-party expert’s expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities. Our interest rate cap is classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy and is valued at $ 0.9 million at December 31, 2023 and $ 6.0 million at December 31, 2022.

All preferred shares had been issued at a price of $ 1,000 per share and were entitled to a 12.5 % cash dividend, paid semi-annually. Repurchased Shares We entered into an agreement (the “10b5-1 Purchase Plan”) with Morgan Stanley & Co.

The 10b5-1 Purchase Plan required Morgan Stanley to purchase shares of our common stock on our behalf when the market price per share was below the book value per share of common stock, subject to certain daily limits prescribed by the 10b5-1 Purchase Plan. For the period from December 6, 2021 through October 24, 2022, our full $ 25.0 million commitment was used to repurchase 1,679,570 shares of common stock at an average price per share of $ 14.88 .

Earnings per Share

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings per Share	Note 10. Earnings Per Share We calculate basic earnings per share (“EPS”) using the two-class method, which defines unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends as participating securities. Under the two-class method, both distributed and undistributed earnings are allocated to common stock and participating securities based on their respective rights. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing our net income attributable to common stockholders minus participating securities’ share in earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS is calculated under the more dilutive of the treasury stock or the two-class method. Under the treasury stock method, diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the incremental potential shares of common stock assumed issued during the period if they are dilutive. As of December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 we had no dilutive securities. As a result, basic and diluted EPS are the same. The calculation of basic and diluted EPS is as follows ($ in thousands, except for share and per share data): Year Ended December 31, December 31, December 31, Net income attributable to common stockholders $ 6,027 $ 112,064 $ 170,537 Dividends on participating securities (1) ( 3,681 ) ( 2,397 ) - Participating securities ʾ share in earnings - - - Basic earnings $ 2,346 $ 109,667 $ 170,537 Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding, (2) 138,617,043 139,306,311 134,539,645 Net income per share of common stock, basic and diluted $ 0.02 $ 0.79 $ 1.27 (1) For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, dividends on participating securities ex cludes $ 35,000 , $ 3,600 , and $ 0 of dividends on fully vested RSUs. (2) Amounts as of December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 include 41,780 , 6,850 , and 0 fully vested RSUs, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, 2,637,717 , 1,190,126 , and 0 of weighted average unvested RSUs, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS because the effect was anti-dilutive.

Management fees are paid quarterly, in arrears, and $ 9.3 million, and $ 9.9 million were accrued and were included in management fee payable – affiliate on our consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. On August 2, 2022 our Management Agreement was amended and restated, primarily to provide for reimbursement of allocable costs, including compensation of our Manager’s non-investment professionals, to provide for automatic one-year renewals of the agreement following its original expiration date, unless it is otherwise terminated by our Board, and to remove historical provisions that are no longer relevant to our business and certain reporting requirements that are not customary for a public company.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Stock-Based Compensation	Note 12. Stock-Based Compensation Incentive Award Plan We are externally managed and do not currently have any employees. On March 30, 2016, we adopted the 2016 Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”) to promote the success and enhance the value of the Company by linking the individual interests of employees of our Manager and its affiliates to those of our stockholders. As of December 31, 2023 , the maximum remaining number of shares that may be issued under the Plan is 4,983,900 shares. On March 30, 2023, the Board granted an aggregate of 1,100,000 time-based RSUs to employees of our Manager or its affiliates, which vest in three equal installments on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of April 1, 2023, subject to the terms of the applicable award agreement. Each RSU was granted with the right to receive dividend equivalents. The fair value of the 1,100,000 RSUs was $ 11.30 per share based on the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. On June 14, 2022, the Board granted an aggregate of 2,130,000 time-based RSUs to employees of our Manager or its affiliates, which vest in three equal installments on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of July 1, 2022, subject to the terms of the applicable award agreement. Each RSU was granted with the right to receive dividend equivalents. The fair value of the 2,130,000 RSUs was $ 18.72 per share based on the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. Deferred Compensation Plan On May 24, 2022, we adopted the Deferred Compensation Plan to provide our directors and certain executives with an opportunity to defer payment of their stock-based compensation or RSUs and director cash fees, if applicable, pursuant to the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan. Under our Deferred Compensation Plan, certain of our Board members elected to receive the annual fees and/or time-based RSUs to which they are entitled under our Non-Employee Director Compensation Program in the form of deferred RSUs. Accordingly, during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 , we issued 15,410 , 6,850 , and 0 , respectively, of deferred RSUs in lieu of cash fees to such directors, and recognized a related expense of approximately $ 186,000 , $ 98,000 , and $ 0 , respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statements of operations. Non-Employee Director Compensation Program The Board awards time-based RSUs to eligible non-employee Board members on an annual basis as part of such Board members’ annual compensation in accordance with the Non-Employee Director Compensation Program. The time-based awards are generally issued in the second quarter on the date of the annual meeting of our stockholders, in conjunction with the director’s election to the Board, and the awards vest on the earlier of (x) the one-year anniversary of the grant date and (y) the date of the next annual meeting of our stockholders following the grant date, subject to the applicable participants’ continued service through such vesting date. In June 2023, the eligible non-executive members of the Board were granted an aggregate of 58,536 time-based RSUs under the Plan. Each RSU was granted with the right to receive dividend equivalents. Additionally, certain directors elected to defer their RSUs pursuant to the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan. Such deferred awards will become payable on the earliest to occur of the participant’s separation from service or a change in control. The fair value of the 58,536 RSUs was determined to be $ 10.25 per share on the grant date based on the closing price of our common stock on such date. In June 2022, the eligible non-executive members of the Board were granted an aggregate of 29,280 time-based RSUs under the Plan. Each RSU was granted with the right to receive dividend equivalents. Additionally, certain directors elected to defer their RSUs pursuant to the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan. Such deferred awards will become payable on the earliest to occur of the participant’s separation from service or a change in control. The fair value of the 29,280 RSUs was determined to be $ 20.49 per share on the grant date based on the closing price of our common stock on such date. On June 1, 2023, 9,760 of the 29,280 vested RSUs were delivered as shares of our common stock to certain directors. Stock-Based Compensation Expense For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, we recognized $ 16.6 million , $ 7.5 million , and $ 8.8 million , respectively, of stock-based compensation expense related to the RSUs which is considered a non-cash expense. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized in earnings on a straight-line basis over the applicable award’s vesting period. Forfeitures of stock-based compensation awards are recognized as they occur. As of December 31, 2023, total unrecognized compensation expense was $ 28.7 million based on the grant date fair value of RSUs granted. This expense is expected to be recognized over a remaining perio d of 1.8 year s from December 31, 2023. We may allow participants of the Plan to settle their tax liabilities through a reduction of their vested RSU delivery. Such amount will result in a corresponding adjustment to additional paid-in capital and a cash payment to our Manager or its affiliates in order to remit the required statutory tax withholding to each respective taxing authority. Similarly, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, we amended the RSU grant agreements of certain participants with respect to whom neither we nor our Manager or its affiliates had a statutory basis to withhold required tax payments. Such amendments provided for partial cash settlement of fully vested RSUs as of the date of the amendments in order to facilitate the satisfaction by such participants of income tax obligations arising from delivery of common stock to settle vested RSUs. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we delivered 342,786 shares of common stock for 703,318 vested RSUs and concurrently recorded a $ 3.9 million adjustment to additional paid-in capital on our consolidated statement of changes in equity. There were no deliveries of shares of common stock for vested RSUs in the comparable prior period. The following tables detail the time-based RSU activity during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022: Time-based Restricted Performance-based Restricted Number of Restricted Weighted Number of Restricted Weighted Unvested, December 31, 2022 2,159,280 $ 18.74 - $ - Granted 1,167,354 $ 11.25 - $ - Vested ( 749,265 ) $ 18.79 - $ - Forfeited ( 51,167 ) $ 16.52 - $ - Unvested, December 31, 2023 2,526,202 $ 15.31 - $ - Time-based Restricted Performance-based Restricted Number of Restricted Weighted Number of Restricted Weighted Unvested, December 31, 2021 - $ - - $ - Granted 2,159,280 $ 18.74 - $ - Unvested, December 31, 2022 2,159,280 $ 18.74 - $ -

Income Taxes

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Note 13. Income Taxes We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2015 and expect to continue to operate so as to qualify as a REIT. As a result, we will generally not be subject to federal and state income tax on that portion of our income that we distribute to stockholders if we (i) distribute at least 90 % of our taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding any net capital gains, and (ii) comply with certain other requirements to qualify as a REIT. Since Commencement of Operations, we have been in compliance with all REIT requirements and we plan to continue to operate so that we meet the requirements for taxation as a REIT. Therefore, other than amounts relating to our TRS as described below, we have not provided for current income tax expense related to our REIT taxable income for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021. Additionally, no provision has been made for federal or state income taxes in the accompanying financial statements, as we believe we have met the prescribed requisite requirements. Our real estate owned hotel portfolio is held in a TRS. A TRS is a corporation that is owned directly or indirectly by a REIT and has jointly elected with the REIT to be treated as a TRS for tax purposes. For years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, we did not record a provision for income taxes, which was due to a full valuation allowance that was established against deferred taxes. At December 31, 2023 and 2022 , we did no t have any deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities due to a full valuation allowance that was established against our deferred tax assets. The deferred tax asset and valuation allowance at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $ 21.7 million and $ 16.6 million, respectively. The components of the deferred tax asset at December 31, 2023 consisted of an investment basis difference in our real estate owned hotel portfolio of approximately $ 4.2 million, a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $ 17.8 million, and net unrealized gain (a deferred tax liability) of approximately $ 0.3 million. The components of the deferred tax asset at December 31, 2022 consisted of an investment basis difference in our real estate owned hotel portfolio of approximately $ 4.0 million, a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $ 14.7 million, and net unrealized gain (a deferred tax liability) of approximately $ 2.1 million. We recognize tax benefits for uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the position is sustainable based on its technical merits. Interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions, if applicable, are included as a component of the provision for income taxes in our consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022 , we have no t recorded any amounts for uncertain tax positions. The federal statutory rate for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 was 21 %. The Company’s effective tax rate differs from its combined U.S. federal, state and local corporate statutory tax rate primarily due to income earned at the REIT, which is not subject to tax, due to the deduction for qualifying distributions made by the Company, and any change in the valuation allo wance. Our tax returns are subject to audit by taxing authorities. Tax years 2020 and onward remain open to examination by major taxing jurisdictions in which we are subject to taxes. The following table details the income tax treatment for our common stock dividends: Year Ended December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 Ordinary dividends 30.9 % 100.0 % 98.2 % Capital gain dividends 0.0 % 0.0 % 1.8 % Nondividend distributions 69.1 % 0.0 % 0.0 % Total 100.0 % 100.0 % 100.0 %

Such loans receivable have a corresponding aggregate unpaid principal balance of $ 498.1 million. (2) Includes two loans classified as held-for-sale with aggregate associated financings outstanding of $ 184.2 million. Such loans receivable have a corresponding aggregate unpaid principal balance of $ 234.8 million. In January of 2024, these loans receivable were sold and their associated financings were repaid in full. In the normal course of business, we may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and provide for general indemnifications. Our maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against us that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, we expect the risk of loss to be remote.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	12 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation	Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We consolidate all entities that are controlled either through majority ownership or voting rights. We also identify entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights (a variable interest entity or “VIE”) using the analysis as set forth in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, and determine when and which variable interest holder, if any, should consolidate the VIE. We do not have any consolidated variable interest entities as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 . All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates that are particularly susceptible to our judgment include, but are not limited to, the adequacy of the current expected credit loss reserve and the impairment of certain assets.
Risks and Uncertainties	Risks and Uncertainties In the normal course of business, we primarily encounter two significant types of economic risk: credit and market. Credit risk is the risk of default on our loans receivable that results from a borrower’s or counterparty’s inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk reflects changes in the value of the loans receivable due to changes in interest rates, spreads or other market factors, including risks that impact the value of the collateral underlying our loans. We believe that the carrying values of our loans receivable are reasonable taking into consideration these risks. Tax Risks - We are subject to significant tax risks. If we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT in a given taxable year, we may be subject to penalties as well as federal, state and local income tax on our taxable income, which could be material. We will also not be able to qualify as a REIT for the subsequent four taxable years, unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions. A REIT must distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to its stockholders, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains. In addition to the 90% distribution requirement, a REIT is subject to a nondeductible excise tax if it fails to make certain minimum distributions by calendar year-end. The excise tax imposed is equal to 4% of the excess of the required distribution (specified under U.S. federal tax law) over the distributed amount for such year. Distribution of the remaining balance may extend until timely filing of the REIT’s tax return in the subsequent taxable year. Qualifying distributions of taxable income are deductible by a REIT in computing taxable income. Regulatory Risks - We are subject to significant regulatory risks. If we were unable to rely upon an exemption from registration available under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, we could be required to restructure our assets or activities, including the disposition of assets during periods of adverse market conditions that could result in material losses to us.
Loans Receivable Held-for-Investment	Loans Receivable Held-for-Investment Loans that we have originated or acquired and have the intent and ability to hold to maturity or payoff are reported at their unpaid principal balances net of any unearned income, unamortized deferred fees and expected credit losses, if applicable. Loan origination, extension, and exit fees are deferred and recognized in interest income over the estimated life of the loans using the effective interest method, adjusted for actual prepayments.
Interests in Loans Receivable Held-for-Investment	Interests in Loans Receivable Held-for-Investment Loans that we have acquired in a transfer that did not meet the qualifications of a sale and have the intent and ability to hold to maturity or payoff are reported at their unpaid principal balances net of any unearned income, unamortized deferred fees and expected credit losses, if applicable. Loan origination, extension, and exit fees are deferred and recognized in interest income over the estimated life of the loans using the effective interest method, adjusted for actual prepayments.
Loans Receivable Held-for-Sale	Loans Receivable Held-for-Sale Loans that we have originated or acquired and for which we have an intent and ability to sell are classified as loans receivable held-for-sale and are reflected on our consolidated balance sheet at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value. If the estimated fair value of expected loan proceeds is below the loan’s amortized cost as a result of a diminution in the value of the collateral asset, a specific CECL reserve is recorded and subsequently charged-off.
Non-cash Advances in Lieu of Interest	Non-cash Advances in Lieu of Interest We hold certain loans whereby a portion of the loan’s unfunded commitment may be used to satisfy monthly debt service, so long as certain conditions are met. As a result, such loan’s unpaid principal balance increases on the interest payment date and we do not receive cash. This feature is referred to as non-cash advance in lieu of interest, and the increase in unpaid principal balance is reflected in the operating section of our consolidated statements of cash flows, as opposed to the investing section as if the cash had been directly advanced to a borrower. We also have certain financings that allow for non-cash advances in lieu of interest, and the increase in unpaid principal balance is reflected in the operating section of our consolidated statements of cash flows, as opposed to the financing section as if cash had been directly received by us. In either case, repayments of non-cash advances in lieu of interest for both our loans receivable and our financings are reflected in the operating section of our consolidated statements of cash flows.
Current Expected Credit Losses	Current Expected Credit Losses The current expected credit loss (“CECL”) reserve required under ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses – Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326)” (“ASU 2016-13”), reflects our current estimate of potential credit losses related to our loan portfolio. Changes to the CECL reserve are recognized through a provision for or reversal of current expected credit loss reserve on our consolidated statements of operations. ASU 2016-13 specifies the reserve should be based on relevant information about past events, including historical loss experience, current loan portfolio, market conditions and reasonable and supportable macroeconomic forecasts for the duration of each loan. General CECL Reserve Our loans are typically collateralized by real estate, or in the case of mezzanine loans, by an equity interest in an entity that owns real estate. We consider key credit quality indicators in underwriting loans and estimating credit losses, including: the capitalization of borrowers and sponsors; the expertise of the borrowers and sponsors in a particular real estate sector and geographic market; collateral type; geographic region; use and occupancy of the property; property market value; loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio; loan amount and lien position; our risk rating for the same and similar loans; and prior experience with the borrower/sponsor. This information is used to assess the financial and operating capability, experience and profitability of the borrower/sponsor. Ultimate repayment of our loans is sensitive to interest rate changes, general economic conditions, liquidity, LTV ratio, existence of a liquid investment sales market for commercial properties, and availability of replacement financing. We regularly evaluate 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, the financial and operating capability of the borrower/sponsor, the financial strength of loan guarantors, if any, and the overall economic environment, real estate sector, and geographic sub-market in which the borrower operates. Such analyses are completed and reviewed by asset management personnel and evaluated by senior management on at least a quarterly basis, utilizing various data sources, including, to the extent available, (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 relevant market data. We arrive at our general CECL reserve using the Weighted Average Remaining Maturity, or WARM method, which is considered an acceptable loss rate method for estimating CECL reserves by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The application of the WARM method to estimate a general CECL reserve requires judgment, including the appropriate historical loan loss reference data, the expected timing and amount of future loan fundings and repayments, the current credit quality of our portfolio, and our expectations of performance and market conditions over the relevant time period. The WARM method requires us to reference historical loan loss data from a comparable data set and apply such loss rate to each of our loans over their expected remaining term, taking into consideration expected economic conditions over the forecasted timeframe. Our general CECL reserve reflects our forecast of the current and future macroeconomic conditions that may impact the performance of the commercial real estate assets securing our loans and the borrower’s ultimate ability to repay. These estimates include unemployment rates, price indices for commercial properties, and market liquidity, all of which may influence the likelihood and magnitude of potential credit losses for our loans during their anticipated term. Additionally, further adjustments may be made based upon loan positions senior to ours, the risk rating of a loan, whether a loan is a construction loan, or the economic conditions specific to the property type of a loan’s underlying collateral. To estimate an annual historical loss rate, we obtained historical loss rate data for loans most comparable to our loan portfolio from a commercial mortgage-backed securities database licensed by a third party, Trepp, LLC, which contains historical loss data from January 1, 1999 through December 31, 2023. We believe this CMBS data is the most relevant, available, and comparable dataset to our portfolio. When evaluating the current and future macroeconomic environment, we consider the aforementioned macroeconomic factors. Historical data for each metric is compared to historical commercial real estate credit losses in order to determine the relationship between the two variables. We use projections of each macroeconomic factor, obtained from a third party, to approximate the impact the macroeconomic outlook may have on our loss rate. Selections of these economic forecasts require judgment about future events that, while based on the information available to us as of the balance sheet date, are ultimately subjective and uncertain, and the actual economic conditions could vary significantly from the estimates we made. Following a reasonable and supportable forecast period, we use a straight-line method of reverting to the historical loss rate. Additionally, we assess the obligation to extend credit through our unfunded loan commitments over each loan’s contractual period, adjusted for projected fundings from interest reserves, if applicable, which is considered in the estimate of the general CECL reserve. For both the funded and unfunded portions of our loans, we consider our internal risk rating of each loan as the primary credit quality indicator underlying our assessment. We evaluate the credit quality of each of our loans receivable on an individual basis and assign a risk rating at least quarterly. We have developed a loan grading system for all of our outstanding loans receivable that are collateralized directly or indirectly by real estate. Grading criteria include, but are not limited to, as-is or as-stabilized debt yield, term of loan, property type, property or collateral location, loan type and other more subjective variables that include, but are not limited to, as-is or as-stabilized collateral value, market conditions, industry conditions and sponsor’s financial stability. While evaluating the credit quality of each loan within our portfolio, we assess these quantitative and qualitative factors as a whole and with no pre-prescribed weight on their impact to our determination of a loan’s risk rating. However, based upon the facts and circumstances for each loan and the overall market conditions, we may consider certain previously mentioned factors more or less relevant than others. We utilize the grading system to determine each loan’s risk of loss and to provide a determination as to whether an individual loan is impaired and whether a specific CECL reserve is necessary. Based on a 5-point scale, the loans are graded “1” through “5,” from less risk to greater risk, which gradings are defined as follows: 1. Very Low Risk 2. Low Risk 3. Medium Risk 4. High Risk/Potential for Loss: A loan that has a risk of realizing a principal loss 5. Impaired/Loss Likely: A loan that has a very high risk of realizing a principal loss or has otherwise incurred a principal loss Specific CECL Reserve In certain circumstances we may determine that a loan is no longer suited for the WARM method due to its unique risk characteristics or where we have deemed the borrower/sponsor to be experiencing financial difficulty and the repayment of the loan’s principal is collateral-dependent. We may instead elect to employ different methods to estimate credit losses that also conform to ASU 2016-13 and related guidance. For such loans, we would separately measure the specific reserve for each loan by using the estimated fair value of the loan’s collateral. If the estimated fair value of the collateral is less than the carrying value of the loan, an asset-specific reserve is created as a component of our overall current expected credit loss reserve. Specific reserves are equal to the excess of a loan’s carrying value to the estimated fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell, if recovery of our investment is expected from the sale of the collateral and such costs will reduce amounts recovered by us. If we have determined that a loan or a portion of a loan is uncollectible, we will write off such portion of the loan through an adjustment to our current expected credit loss reserve. Significant judgment is required in determining impairment and in estimating the resulting credit loss reserve, and actual losses, if any, could materially differ from those estimates. See Note 3 - Loan Portfolio - Current Expected Credit Losses for further detail.
Financial Instruments	Financial Instruments Financial instruments held by us include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, loan principal payments held by servicer, loans receivable held-for-investment, loans receivable held-for-sale, interests in loans receivable held-for-investment, other assets, other liabilities, dividends payable, management fee payable - affiliate, repurchase agreements, term participations, notes payable, loan participations sold, secured term loans and debt related to real estate owned. The estimated fair value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, loan principal payments held by servicer, other assets (excluding the fair value of our interest rate cap), other liabilities, dividends payable, and management fee payable - affiliate approximates their current carrying amount. GAAP requires the categorization of the fair value of financial instruments into three broad levels that form a hierarchy based on the transparency of inputs to the valuation. See Note 8 – Fair Value Measurements for further detail.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents We consider all investments with original maturities of three months or less, at the time of acquisition, to be cash equivalents. We maintain cash accounts which from time to time exceed the insured maximum of $ 250,000 per account.
Restricted Cash	Restricted Cash Restricted cash includes reserve balances for real estate taxes and capital improvements for our real estate owned hotel portfolio, as well as lockbox accounts held pursuant to the terms of certain financings.
Real Estate Owned (and Related Debt)	Real Estate Owned (and Related Debt) We may assume legal title and/or physical possession of the underlying collateral property of a defaulted loan through foreclosure, a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or an assignment-in-lieu of foreclosure. If we intend to hold, operate or develop the property for a period of at least 12 months, the asset is classified as real estate owned, net on our consolidated balance sheets. If we intend to market the property for sale in the near subsequent term, the asset is classified as real estate held-for-sale on our consolidated balance sheets. Real estate owned is initially recorded at estimated fair value and is subsequently presented net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using a straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from 5 to 40 years and is recognized in depreciation and amortization expense on our consolidated statements of operations. We account for acquisitions of real estate, including foreclosures, deed-in-lieu of foreclosures, or assignment-in-lieu of foreclosures, in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations , which first requires that we determine if the real estate investment is the acquisition of an asset or a business combination. Under this model, we identify and determine the estimated fair value of any assets acquired and liabilities assumed. This generally results in the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the relative fair values of each respective asset and liability. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed generally include land, building, building improvements, tenant improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment, mortgages payable, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, which generally consists of above or below market lease values, in-place lease values, and other lease-related values. In estimating fair values for allocating the purchase price of our real estate owned, we may utilize various methods, including a market approach, which considers recent sales of similar properties, adjusted for differences in location and state of the physical asset, or a replacement cost approach, which considers the composition of physical assets acquired, adjusted based on industry standard information and the remaining useful life of the acquired property. In estimating fair values of intangible assets acquired or liabilities assumed, we consider the estimated cost of leasing our real estate owned assuming the property was vacant, the value of the current lease agreements relative to market-rate leases, and the estimation of total lease-up time including lost rents. In-place, above market, and other lease values, net are included within other assets on our consolidated balance sheets. Below market lease values, net, are included within other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Amortization of in-place and other lease values is recognized in depreciation and amortization expense on our consolidated statements of operations. Amortization of above and below market lease values is recognized in revenue from real estate owned on our consolidated statements of operations. Real estate assets are evaluated for indicators of impairment on a quarterly basis. Factors that we may consider in our impairment analysis include, among others: (1) significant underperformance relative to historical or anticipated operating results; (2) significant negative industry or economic trends; (3) costs necessary to extend the life or improve the real estate asset; (4) significant increase in competition; and (5) ability to hold and dispose of the real estate asset in the ordinary course of business. A real estate asset is considered impaired when the sum of estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the real estate asset over the estimated remaining holding period is less than the carrying amount of such real estate asset. Cash flows include operating cash flows and anticipated capital proceeds generated by the sale of the real estate asset. If the sum of such estimated undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the real estate asset, an impairment charge is recorded equal to the excess of the carrying value of the real estate asset over its estimated fair value. When determining the estimated fair value of a real estate asset, we make certain assumptions including consideration of projected operating cash flows, comparable selling prices and projected cash flows from the eventual disposition of the real estate asset based upon our estimate of a capitalization rate and discount rate. There were no impairments of our real estate assets through December 31, 2023. Debt assumed in a foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or assignment-in-lieu of foreclosure of real estate is recorded at its estimated fair value at the time of the acquisition and is subsequently presented net of unamortized deferred financing costs. As of December 31, 2023 , debt related to real estate owned is non-recourse to us.
Equity Method Investment	Equity Method Investment We account for our investments in entities in which we have the ability to significantly influence, but do not have a controlling interest, by using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method for which we have not elected a fair value option, the investment, originally recorded at cost, is adjusted to recognize our share of earnings or losses as they occur and for additional contributions made or distributions received. We look at the nature of the cash distributions received to determine the proper character of cash flow distributions on the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows as either returns on investment, which would be included in operating activities, or returns of investment, which would be included in investing activities. At each reporting period we assess whether there are any indicators of other than temporary impairment of our equity investments. There were no other than temporary impairments of our equity method investment through December 31, 2023 .
Derivative Financial Instruments	Derivative Financial Instruments In the normal course of business, we are exposed to the effect of interest rate changes and may undertake one or more strategies to limit these risks through the use of derivatives. We may use derivatives to reduce the impact that changes in interest rates will have on our floating rate assets and floating rate liabilities. Such derivatives may consist of interest rate swaps, interest rate caps, collars, and floors. We recognize derivatives on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value within other assets. To determine the fair value of derivative instruments, we use a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions as of the balance sheet date, such as discounted cash flows and option-pricing models. We have not designated any derivatives as hedges to qualify for hedge accounting for financial reporting purposes and fluctuations in the fair value of derivatives have been recognized as an unrealized gain or loss on interest rate cap in our consolidated statements of operations. Payments received from our counterparties in connection with our derivative are recognized as proceeds from interest rate cap on our consolidated statements of operations.
Other Assets	Other Assets Other assets generally include interest receivable, miscellaneous receivables, prepaid expenses, deferred tax asset (net of any valuation allowance), deposits funded relating to unclosed transactions, deferred financing costs, net related to certain secured financings, derivative financial instruments, and certain lease intangible assets, net.
Deferred Financing Costs	Deferred Financing Costs Deferred financing costs included within other assets on our consolidated balance sheets include costs related to the establishment and ongoing operations of our repurchase agreements, term participation facility, and short-term funding facility. These costs are amortized as interest expense using the straight-line method over the contractual term of the repurchase agreements, the contractual term of the short-term funding facility, or the contractual term of the collateral asset for the term participation facility, which may include fees paid to the financing counterparty when financing a specific asset. Costs related to obtaining notes payable, loan participations sold, secured term loans, and debt related to real estate owned are presented on our consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the respective obligations. These costs are amortized over the contractual term of the obligations as interest expense using the effective interest method.
Secured Financings	Secured Financings We evaluate whether a financing transaction constitutes a sale based on whether (i) the financial asset was legally isolated, (ii) control of the financial asset has been transferred to the transferee, (iii) the transfer imposed any condition that would constrain the transferee from pledging the financial asset received, and (iv) we have continuing involvement with the transferred financial asset.
Repurchase Agreements	Repurchase Agreements We finance certain of our loans receivable using repurchase agreements, whereby an asset is sold to a counterparty to be repurchased at a later date at a predetermined price. Such arrangements are accounted for as secured financings under GAAP and are presented as a liability on our consolidated balance sheets. Prior to repurchase, interest is incurred to the counterparty based upon the sales price and a predetermined interest rate. Borrowings under the repurchase agreements are partially recourse to us.
Term Participation Facility	Term Participation Facility We finance certain of our loans receivable through selling a senior interest to a counterparty. The term participation facility allows us to finance additional loans through a specified date. Such arrangements are accounted for as secured financings under GAAP and are presented as a liability on our consolidated balance sheets. Borrowings under the term participation facility are partially recourse to us.
Loan Participations Sold, Net	Loan Participations Sold, Net We finance certain of our loans via the sale of a participation in such loan to a counterparty. However, we present the loan participation sold as a liability, net of any unamortized deferred financing costs on our consolidated balance sheets when the arrangement does not qualify as a sale under GAAP. Other than amounts guaranteed by us, these loan participations are non-recourse.
Notes Payable, Net	Notes Payable, Net We finance certain of our loans receivable using direct financing, collateralized by the loans receivable, which are presented as liability net of any unamortized deferred financing costs on our consolidated balance sheets. Other than amounts guaranteed by us, borrowings under notes payable are non-recourse.
Secured Term Loan, Net	Secured Term Loan, Net Our secured term loan is collateralized by a pledge of equity in certain subsidiaries and their related assets and is presented on our consolidated balance sheets net of any unamortized original issue discount. Transaction expenses incurred in connection with our secured term loan are deferred and recognized as interest expense over the life of the loan using the effective interest method.
Other Liabilities	Other Liabilities Other liabilities include interest payable, accrued expenses, our general CECL reserve related to our unfunded loan commitments, reserves and deposits held for loans receivable, and below market lease values, net.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition Interest income from loans receivable is recorded on the accrual basis based on the unpaid principal balance and the contractual terms of the loans. Fees, premiums, discounts and direct costs associated with these loans are initially deferred and recognized as an adjustment to unpaid principal balance until the loan is advanced and are then amortized or accreted into interest income over the term of the loan as an adjustment to yield using the effective interest method based on expected cash flows through the expected recovery period. Income accrual may be suspended for loans when we determine that the payment of income and/or principal is no longer probable. Once income accrual is suspended, any previously recognized interest income deemed uncollectible is reversed against interest income. Factors considered when making this determination include, but are not limited to, our assessment of the underlying collateral value, delinquency in excess of 90 days, and overall market conditions. While on non-accrual status, based on our estimation as to collectability of principal, loans are either accounted for on a cash basis, where interest income is recognized only upon actual receipt of cash, or on a cost-recovery basis, where all cash receipts reduce a loan’s carrying value. If and when a loan is brought back into compliance with its contractual terms, and our Manager has determined that the borrower has demonstrated an ability and willingness to continue to make contractually required payments related to the loan, we resume accrual of interest. Revenue from real estate owned represents revenues associated with the operations of our hotel portfolio and mixed-use property classified as real estate owned. Revenue from the operations of the hotel portfolio is recognized when guestrooms are occupied, services have been rendered or fees have been earned. Hotel revenues consist of room sales, food and beverage sales and other hotel revenues and are recorded net of any discounts, sales and other taxes collected from customers. In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , revenue from our hotel portfolio is recognized when we transfer promised services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those services. ASC 606 includes a five-step framework that requires an entity to: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied. Our contracts generally have a single performance obligation, such as renting a hotel room to a customer, or providing food and beverage to a customer, or providing a hotel property related good or service to a customer. Our performance obligations are generally satisfied at a point in time. Revenue from operations of our mixed-use property is derived from lease agreements with tenants, which we account for under ASC 842, Leases. Such lease agreements generally provide for fixed rent payments, which we recognize on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and variable rent payments, including reimbursement of certain operating expenses and miscellaneous fees, which we recognize when earned. These reimbursements represent revenue attributable to non-lease components for which the timing and pattern of recognition is the same for lease components. We use the practical expedient, which allows us to account for lease and non-lease components as a single component for all classes of underlying assets. We periodically evaluate the collectability of tenant receivables required under the lease agreements. If we determine that collectability is not probable, we reverse any difference between revenue recognized to date and payments that have been collected from the tenant to date as a current period adjustment to revenue from real estate owned.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense	Stock-Based Compensation Expense Stock-based compensation expense consists of both time-based and performance-based awards issued to persons employed by or otherwise associated with our Manager and/or its affiliates. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized in earnings on a straight-line basis over the applicable award’s vesting period. Forfeitures of stock-based compensation awards are recognized as they occur.
Common Stock	Common Stock Common stock issued and outstanding excludes Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) which have not been delivered, regardless of vesting status. Fully vested RSUs are included in the calculation of basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding and receive dividends declared on common stock. On October 6, 2021, we effected a reverse stock split of shares of our common stock on a 2-for-1 basis. All references to common stock outstanding, restricted stock units, share data and per common stock share amounts have been stated to reflect the effect of the reverse stock split for all periods presented.
Redeemable Common Stock	Redeemable Common Stock We account for our common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity . Conditionally redeemable common stock is classified as temporary equity, including common stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control. At all other times, common stock is classified as equity. Certain of our common stock featured certain redemption rights that were considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. These rights terminated upon the completion of our initial public offering on November 3, 2021. Accordingly, on this date redeemable common stock was reclassified to common stock at its redemption value. References to common stock in 2021 include redeemable common stock.
Non-Controlling Interests	Non-Controlling Interests The non-controlling interests included on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 represented the equity interests in CMTG/TT Mortgage REIT LLC (“CMTG/TT”) that were not owned by us. Effective August 1, 2022, the operating agreement of CMTG/TT was amended and we are not deemed to be the primary beneficiary in accordance with ASC 810 and do not consolidate the joint venture. Prior to August 1, 2022, the portion of CMTG/TT’s consolidated equity and results of operations allocated to non-controlling interest was equal to the remaining 49 % ownership of CMTG/TT. As of December 31, 2021, CMTG/TT’s total equity was $ 76.8 million of which $ 37.6 million was characterized as non-controlling interests. See Note 4 - Equity Method Investment for further detail.
Offering Costs	Offering Costs Certain costs related to equity offerings, including legal, professional accounting and other third-party fees that are directly associated with equity offerings, are recorded in equity as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 , we incurred offering costs of $ 0 , $ 30,000 , and $ 11.8 million, respectively, which have been charged against additional paid-in capital on our consolidated balance sheets.
Repurchased Shares	Repurchased Shares We account for the repurchases of our common stock based on the settlement date.

Recent Accounting Guidance	Recent Accounting Guidance The FASB issued ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures,” (“ASU 2022-02”). The standard eliminates the recognition and measurement guidance for troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) for creditors that have adopted ASU 2016-13. In addition to eliminating the TDR accounting guidance, ASU 2022-02 changes existing disclosure requirements and introduces new disclosures related to certain modifications of instruments with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The standard is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. During the second quarter of 2022, we adopted this standard effective January 1, 2022 and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. The FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). The standard provides improvements to income tax disclosure requiring disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2023-09 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Financing agreements, covenants description

Our financing agreements generally contain certain financial covenants. For example, our ratio of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), to interest charges, as defined in the agreements, shall be not less than either 1.3 to 1.0 or 1.5 to 1.0. Further, (i) our tangible net worth, as defined in the agreements, shall not be less than $2.06 billion as of each measurement date plus 75% of proceeds from future equity issuances; (ii) cash liquidity shall not be less than the greater of (x) $50 million or (y) 5% of our recourse indebtedness; and (iii) our indebtedness shall not exceed 77.8% of our total assets. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we are in compliance with all covenants under our financing agreements. The requirements set forth in (i) through (iii) above are based upon the most restrictive financial covenants in place as of the reporting date. For the quarters ended December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024, we modified certain of our EBITDA to interest charges covenants to provide for a minimum ratio of 1.3 to 1.0 for such covenants which previously required a minimum ratio of 1.4 to 1.0. Future compliance with our financial covenants is dependent upon the results of our operating activities, our financial condition, and the overall market conditions in which we and our borrowers operate. As market conditions evolve, we may work with our counterparties to request modifications of financial covenants as needed.
