Real Estate Dispositions

We sold five properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and three properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we continued to execute our capital recycling program, whereby we sold non-core properties and redeployed proceeds to either fund property acquisitions in our target secondary growth markets or repay outstanding debt. We expect to continue to execute our capital recycling plan and sell non-core properties as reasonable disposition opportunities become available, and use the sales proceeds to acquire properties in our target, secondary growth markets or pay down outstanding debt. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we sold five non-core properties, located in Baytown, Texas; Birmingham, Alabama; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Eatontown, New Jersey; and Taylorsville, Utah, which are summarized in the table below (dollars in thousands):

206,278  $ 23,650  $ 1,476  $ 3,591  $ 4,245 

Our dispositions during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were not classified as discontinued operations because they did not represent a strategic shift in operations, nor will such dispositions have a major effect on our operations and financial results. Accordingly, the operating results of these properties are included within continuing operations for all periods reported.

Real Estate Held for Sale

At September 30, 2023, we had four properties classified as held for sale, located in Columbia, South Carolina; Richardson, Texas; Columbus, Ohio; and Blaine, Minnesota. We consider these assets to be non-core to our long term strategy. At December 31, 2022, we had one property classified as held for sale, located in Columbia, South Carolina.

Impairment Charges

We evaluated our portfolio for triggering events to determine if any of our held and used assets were impaired during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and identified two held and used assets, located in Columbus, Ohio and Draper, Utah, which were impaired by $9.0 million. We also recognized an impairment charge of $4.6 million on two held for sale assets, located in Richardson, Texas and Taylorsville, Utah during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. In performing our held for sale assessment, the carrying value of these assets were above the fair value, less costs of sale. As a result, we impaired these properties to equal the fair market value less costs of sale. We recognized an impairment charge of $12.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 on two held for sale assets, located in Columbia, South Carolina and Parsippany, New Jersey. In performing our held for sale assessment, the carrying value of this asset was above the fair value, less costs of sale. As a result, we impaired this property to equal the fair market value less costs of sale.
