Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management makes significant estimates regarding revenue recognition, purchase price allocations to record investments in real estate, real estate taxes, income taxes, derivative financial instruments, hedging activities, equity-based compensation expenses related to multi-year outperformance agreements entered into with the Advisor in 2015 (the “2015 OPP”) and 2018 (the “2018 OPP”) and fair value measurements, as applicable.</span></div>

Under the new leasing standard (see the “Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements” section below), the Company is required to assess, based on credit risk only, if it is probable that we will collect virtually all of the lease payments at lease commencement date and we must continue to reassess collectability periodically thereafter based on new facts and circumstances affecting the credit risk of the tenant. Partial reserves, or the ability to assume partial recovery are no longer permitted. If the Company determines that it is probable it will collect virtually all of the lease payments (rent and common area maintenance), the lease will continue to be accounted for on an accrual basis (i.e. straight-line). However, if the Company determines it is not probable that it will collect virtually all of the lease payments, the lease will be accounted for on a cash basis and a full reserve would be recorded on previously accrued amounts in cases where it was subsequently concluded that collection was not probable. Cost recoveries from tenants are included in Revenue from tenants on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations in the period the related costs are incurred, as applicable. </span></div>Under ASC 842, uncollectible amounts are reflected as reductions in revenue. Under ASC 840, the Company recorded such amounts as bad debt expense as part of property operating expenses.<div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:6px;padding-top:6px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Revenue Recognition</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"> </span></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:4px;padding-top:4px;text-align:justify;text-indent:24px;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The Company’s revenues, which are derived primarily from lease contracts, which include rents that each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of each lease reported on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. As of </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">December 31, 2019</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, these leases had an average remaining lease term of </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>8.3 years</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. Because many of the Company’s leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals, straight-line basis accounting requires the Company to record a receivable for, and include in revenue from tenants, unbilled rents receivable that the Company will only receive if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the lease. As of </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">December 31, 2019</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">2018</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, the Company’s cumulative straight-line rents receivable in the consolidated balance sheets was </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$51.8 million</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$47.2 million</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, respectively. For the years ended </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">December 31, 2019</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">2018</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">2017</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, the Company’s revenue from tenants included impacts of unbilled rental revenue of </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$6.8 million</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$6.3 million</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$10.5 million</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, respectively, to adjust contractual rent to straight-line rent. </span></div>For new leases after acquisition, the commencement date is considered to be the date the lease is executed. The Company defers the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates. When the Company acquires a property, the acquisition date is considered to be the commencement date for purposes of this calculation. In addition to base rent, the Company’s lease agreements generally require tenants to pay or reimburse the Company for all property operating expenses, which primarily reflect insurance costs and real estate taxes incurred by the Company and subsequently reimbursed by the tenant. However, some limited property operating expenses that are not the responsibility of the tenant are absorbed by the Company. Under ASC 842, the Company has elected to report combined lease and non-lease components in a single line “Revenue from tenants.” For comparative purposes, the Company has also elected to reflect prior revenue and reimbursements previously reported under ASC 840 on a single line as well. For expenses paid directly by the tenant, under both ASC 842 and 840, the Company has reflected them on a net basis.
