EXPLANATORY NOTE
This filing combines the reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2017, of Apartment Investment and Management Company, or Aimco, and AIMCO Properties, L.P., or the Aimco Operating Partnership. Where it is important to distinguish between the two entities, we refer to them specifically. Otherwise, references to “we,” “us” or “our” mean, collectively, Aimco, the Aimco Operating Partnership and their consolidated entities.
Aimco, a Maryland corporation, is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, or REIT. Aimco, through wholly-owned subsidiaries, is the general and special limited partner of, and as of June 30, 2017, owned a 95.5% ownership interest in the common partnership units of, the Aimco Operating Partnership. The remaining 4.5% interest is owned by limited partners. As the sole general partner of the Aimco Operating Partnership, Aimco has exclusive control of the Aimco Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management.
The Aimco Operating Partnership holds all of Aimco’s assets and manages the daily operations of Aimco’s business. Pursuant to the Aimco Operating Partnership agreement, Aimco is required to contribute to the Aimco Operating Partnership any assets, which it may acquire including all proceeds from the offerings of its securities. In exchange for the contribution of these assets, Aimco receives additional interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership with similar terms (e.g., if Aimco contributes proceeds of a stock offering, Aimco receives partnership units with terms substantially similar to the stock issued by Aimco).
We believe combining the periodic reports of Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership into this single report provides the following benefits:
We present our business as a whole, in the same manner our management views and operates the business;
We eliminate duplicative disclosure and provide a more streamlined and readable presentation because a substantial portion of the disclosures apply to both Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership; and
We save time and cost through the preparation of a single combined report rather than two separate reports.
We operate Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership as one enterprise, the management of Aimco directs the management and operations of the Aimco Operating Partnership, and the members of the Board of Directors of Aimco are identical to those of the Aimco Operating Partnership.
We believe it is important to understand the few differences between Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership in the context of how Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership operate as a consolidated company. Aimco has no assets or liabilities other than its investment in the Aimco Operating Partnership. Also, Aimco is a corporation that issues publicly traded equity from time to time, whereas the Aimco Operating Partnership is a partnership that has no publicly traded equity. Except for the net proceeds from stock offerings by Aimco, which are contributed to the Aimco Operating Partnership in exchange for additional limited partnership interests (of a similar type and in an amount equal to the shares of stock sold in the offering), the Aimco Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by its business. These sources include the Aimco Operating Partnership’s working capital, net cash provided by operating activities, borrowings under its revolving credit facility, the issuance of debt and equity securities, including additional partnership units, and proceeds received from the sale of apartment communities.
Equity, partners’ capital and noncontrolling interests are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of Aimco and those of the Aimco Operating Partnership. Interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership held by entities other than Aimco, which we refer to as OP Units, are classified within partners’ capital in the Aimco Operating Partnership’s financial statements and as noncontrolling interests in Aimco’s financial statements.
To help investors understand the differences between Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership, this report provides: separate consolidated financial statements for Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership; a single set of consolidated notes to such financial statements that includes separate discussions of each entity’s stockholders’ equity or partners’ capital, as applicable; and a combined Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section that includes discrete information related to each entity, where appropriate.
This report also includes separate Part I, Item 4. Controls and Procedures sections and separate Exhibits 31 and 32 certifications for Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership in order to establish that the requisite certifications have been made and that Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership are both compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and 18 U.S.C. §1350.

APARTMENT INVESTMENT AND MANAGEMENT COMPANY
AIMCO PROPERTIES, L.P.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2017
(Unaudited)

Note 1 — Organization
Apartment Investment and Management Company, or Aimco, is a Maryland corporation incorporated on January 10, 1994. Aimco is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, or REIT. AIMCO Properties, L.P., or the Aimco Operating Partnership, is a Delaware limited partnership formed on May 16, 1994, to conduct our business, which is focused on the ownership, management, redevelopment and limited development of quality apartment communities located in the largest markets in the United States.
Aimco, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, AIMCO-GP, Inc. and AIMCO-LP Trust, owns a majority of the ownership interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership. Aimco conducts all of its business and owns all of its assets through the Aimco Operating Partnership. Interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership that are held by limited partners other than Aimco are referred to as OP Units. OP Units include common partnership units and high performance partnership units, which we refer to as common OP Units, as well as partnership preferred units, which we refer to as preferred OP Units. As of June 30, 2017, after eliminations for units held by consolidated subsidiaries, the Aimco Operating Partnership had 164,483,596 common partnership units and equivalents outstanding. As of June 30, 2017, Aimco owned 157,022,720 of the common partnership units (95.5% of the common partnership units and equivalents) of the Aimco Operating Partnership and Aimco had outstanding an equal number of shares of its Class A Common Stock, which we refer to as Common Stock.
Except as the context otherwise requires, “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Aimco, the Aimco Operating Partnership and their consolidated subsidiaries, collectively.
As of June 30, 2017, we owned an equity interest in 141 apartment communities with 39,187 apartment homes in our real estate portfolio. Our Real Estate portfolio, which comprises our reportable segment, is diversified by both price point and geography and consists primarily of market rate apartment communities in which we own a substantial interest. We consolidated 137 of these apartment communities with 39,045 apartment homes.
As of June 30, 2017, we also owned nominal ownership positions in partnerships holding 46 low-income housing tax credit apartment communities with 6,898 apartment homes. We provide services to these partnerships and receive fees and other payments in return. Our relationship with these partnerships is different than real estate ownership and is better described as an asset management business, or Asset Management. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, we are required to consolidate in our financial statements partnerships owning an aggregate of 39 apartment communities with 6,211 apartment homes.
Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations, although management believes the disclosures are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.
The balance sheets of Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership at December 31, 2016, have been derived from their respective audited financial statements at that date, but do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the financial statements and notes thereto included in Aimco’s and the Aimco Operating Partnership’s combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Except where indicated, the footnotes refer to both Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership.
Effective in 2017, we modified our condensed consolidated balance sheets to present the assets and liabilities of consolidated partnerships served by our Asset Management business separately from those amounts relating to our Real Estate portfolio. We have similarly modified our condensed consolidated statements of operations to present separately the rental and other property

11

Table of Contents

revenues and property operating expenses of consolidated partnerships served by our Asset Management business. We have reclassified these items in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2016, and in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported total assets, total liabilities or net income amounts.
Principles of Consolidation
Aimco’s accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aimco, the Aimco Operating Partnership, and their consolidated subsidiaries. The Aimco Operating Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Aimco Operating Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries, including partnerships served by our Asset Management business (see note Note 8). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership that are held by limited partners other than Aimco are reflected in Aimco’s accompanying balance sheets as noncontrolling interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership. Interests in partnerships consolidated by the Aimco Operating Partnership that are held by third parties are reflected in our accompanying balance sheets as noncontrolling interests in consolidated real estate partnerships.
Temporary Equity and Partners’ Capital
The following table presents a reconciliation of the Aimco Operating Partnership’s Preferred OP Units from December 31, 2016 to June 30, 2017. The Preferred OP Units may be redeemed at the holders’ option (as further discussed in Note 5), and therefore are presented within temporary equity in Aimco’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and within temporary capital in the Aimco Operating Partnership’s condensed consolidated balance sheets (in thousands).

Use of Estimates
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts included in the financial statements and accompanying notes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in the Current Year
Effective April 1, 2017, we elected to adopt early the new accounting standard that revised the GAAP definition of a business. Under the new standard we expect that apartment communities will no longer be considered businesses in most acquisitions and dispositions. Under the new standard, transaction costs incurred related to the acquisition of real estate operations will be capitalized as a cost of the acquisition. Additionally, we will no longer allocate goodwill to apartment communities for purposes of calculating gains or losses upon sale. We have applied the new standard prospectively to transactions occurring after April 1, 2017. This standard did not have a significant effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Effective January 1, 2017, we adopted a new standard issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, that simplifies the accounting for the income tax consequences of intercompany transfers of assets. Previously, the recognition within the statement of operations of income tax expense or benefit resulting from an intercompany transfer of assets did not occur until the assets affect GAAP income or loss, for example, through depreciation, impairment or upon the sale of the asset to a third-party. Under the new standard, an entity recognizes the income tax expense or benefit from an intercompany transfer of assets when the transfer occurs. We have applied this change on a modified retrospective basis and recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings of $62.5 million as of January 1, 2017, representing accumulated unrecognized tax expense from intercompany transfers between the Aimco Operating Partnership and TRS entities. Such amounts were included in other assets within our consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2016.
Also effective January 1, 2017, we adopted guidance that simplifies the accounting for share-based compensation. Under prior practice, tax benefits in excess of those associated with compensation cost recognized in accordance with GAAP, or windfalls, were recorded in equity and tax deficiencies were recorded in equity until previous windfalls had been recouped and then recognized

13

Table of Contents

in earnings. Under the new guidance, all of the tax effects related to share-based compensation are recognized through earnings. This guidance is applied to all windfalls and tax deficiencies resulting from settlements occurring after January 1, 2017. The new guidance also requires windfalls to be recorded in the period the related transaction triggering tax consequences, such as an exercise of stock options or vesting of restricted shares, occurs. This change in timing of recognition has been applied on a modified retrospective basis. We did not record a cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings on the date of adoption as there were no accumulated windfalls recorded in equity. Compared to prior periods, we may experience incremental volatility in income tax benefit or expense resulting from the recognition in earnings of windfall benefits or deficiencies upon the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted shares.
Note 3 — Significant Transactions, Dispositions of Apartment Communities and Assets Held for Sale
On June 30, 2017, we reacquired for $451.5 million, the 47% noncontrolling limited partner interest in the Palazzo joint venture, which owns three communities with a total of 1,382 apartment homes located in Los Angeles, California. We assumed $140.5 million of the noncontrolling interest partner’s share of existing non-recourse property-level debt and paid $311.0 million in cash consideration, which was funded by short-term borrowings we expect to repay using proceeds from apartment community sales. We now own all of the interests in the Palazzo joint venture and its underlying apartment communities. Prior to the transaction, we consolidated in our financial statements the joint venture and underlying apartment communities, therefore this transaction has been accounted for as an equity transaction. In accordance with GAAP, we recognized the $155.6 million of consideration paid in excess of the noncontrolling interest balance as a reduction of additional paid-in capital within Aimco’s equity and the Aimco Operating Partnership’s partners capital.
Also on June 30, 2017, we entered into a second amended and restated senior secured credit agreement, or the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement continues our existing $600.0 million revolving loan facility with consistent terms and provides for a $250.0 million term loan, which we used to fund a portion of the Palazzo acquisition. The term loan matures on June 30, 2018, includes a one-year extension option, subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, and currently bears interest at 30-day LIBOR plus 1.35%. We paid lender and other fees of $1.0 million in connection with the term loan, which have been deferred and will be recognized as additional interest over the duration of the term loan.
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, partnerships served by the Asset Management business sold two apartment communities with a total of 252 apartment homes, resulting in gains of $2.6 million, and related tax expense of $0.9 million.
We are currently marketing for sale certain apartment communities that are inconsistent with our long-term investment strategy. Additionally, the consolidated partnerships served by our Asset Management business periodically evaluates for sale certain of their apartment communities. At the end of each reporting period, we evaluate whether any consolidated apartment communities meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale. As of June 30, 2017, no apartment communities were classified as held for sale.
Note 4 — Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
In connection with our redevelopment, development and capital improvement activities, we have entered into various construction-related contracts and we have made commitments to complete redevelopment of certain apartment communities, pursuant to financing or other arrangements. As of June 30, 2017, our commitments related to these capital activities totaled approximately $80.8 million, most of which we expect to incur during the next 12 months.
We enter into certain commitments for future purchases of goods and services in connection with the operations of our apartment communities. Those commitments generally have terms of one year or less and reflect expenditure levels comparable to our historical expenditures.
Tax Credit Arrangements
For various consolidated partnerships served by our Asset Management business, we are required to manage the partnerships and related apartment communities in compliance with various laws, regulations and contractual provisions that apply to historic and low-income housing tax credit syndication arrangements. In some instances, noncompliance with applicable requirements could result in projected tax benefits not being realized by the limited partners in these partnerships and would require a refund or reduction of investor capital contributions, which are reported as deferred income in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, until such time as our obligation to deliver tax benefits is relieved. The remaining compliance periods for the tax credit syndication arrangements range from less than one year to eight years. We do not anticipate that any material refunds or reductions of investor capital contributions will be required in connection with these arrangements.

Income Taxes
In 2014, the Internal Revenue Service initiated an audit of the Aimco Operating Partnership’s 2011 and 2012 tax years. We do not believe the audit will have any material effect on our unrecognized tax benefits, financial condition or results of operations.
Legal Matters
In addition to the matters described below, we are a party to various legal actions and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which are covered by our general liability insurance program, and none of which we expect to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Limited Partnerships
In connection with our acquisitions of interests in real estate partnerships, we are sometimes subject to legal actions, including allegations that such activities may involve breaches of fiduciary duties to the partners of such real estate partnerships or violations of the relevant partnership agreements. We may incur costs in connection with the defense or settlement of such litigation. We believe that we comply with our fiduciary obligations and relevant partnership agreements. Although the outcome of any litigation is uncertain, we do not expect any such legal actions to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
La Jolla Cove Litigation
We are a defendant in a lawsuit filed by a group of disappointed buyers that contend we interfered with their allegedly superior right to acquire the La Jolla Cove property. The case, pending in state court in California, is in fact discovery at this stage. The disappointed buyers have filed a motion for summary adjudication, which requests that the judge issue declaratory relief and award the property to them.  The motion is presently set for hearing in August.  The case is set for jury trial in February 2018.  Although the outcome of this litigation is uncertain, we do not believe its resolution will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Environmental
Various federal, state and local laws subject apartment community owners or operators to liability for management, and the costs of removal or remediation, of certain potentially hazardous materials that may be present in the land or buildings of an apartment community. Such laws often impose liability without regard to fault or whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such materials. The presence of, or the failure to manage or remediate properly, these materials may adversely affect occupancy at such apartment communities as well as the ability to sell or finance such apartment communities. In addition, governmental agencies may bring claims for costs associated with investigation and remediation actions. Moreover, private plaintiffs may potentially make claims for investigation and remediation costs they incur or for personal injury, disease, disability or other infirmities related to the alleged presence of hazardous materials. In addition to potential environmental liabilities or costs associated with our current apartment communities, we may also be responsible for such liabilities or costs associated with communities we acquire or manage in the future, or apartment communities we no longer own or operate.
We are engaged in discussions with the Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, and the Indiana Department of Environmental Management, or IDEM, regarding contaminated groundwater in a residential area in the vicinity of an Indiana apartment community that has not been owned by us since 2008. The contamination allegedly derives from a dry cleaner that operated on our former property, prior to our ownership. We have undertaken a voluntary remediation of the dry cleaner contamination under IDEM’s oversight, and in previous years accrued our share of the then estimated cleanup and abatement costs. In September 2016, EPA listed our former community and a number of residential communities in the vicinity on the National Priorities List, or NPL (i.e. as a Superfund site), and IDEM has formally sought to terminate us from the voluntary remediation program. We have filed a formal appeal of the EPA listing and the IDEM termination of us from the voluntary remediation program. Although the outcome of these processes are uncertain, we do not expect their resolution to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
We also have been contacted by regulators and the current owner of a property in Lake Tahoe regarding environmental issues allegedly stemming from the historic operation of a dry cleaner. An entity owned by us was the former general partner of a now-dissolved company that previously owned a site that was used for dry cleaning. That entity and the current property owner have been remediating the dry cleaner site since 2009, under the oversight of the Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board, or Lahontan. In 2016, Lahontan sent us, the current property owner and a former operator of the dry cleaner drafts of a proposed cleanup and abatement order that if entered as drafted, would have required all three parties to perform additional groundwater investigation and corrective actions with respect to onsite and offsite contamination. After review of comments from us, Lahontan issued a final order in May 2017. The final order adds one more potentially-responsible party, acknowledges that there may be

additional responsible parties, and narrows (as compared to earlier drafts) the scope of work. We filed an appeal of the final order in June 2017. Although the outcome of this process is uncertain, we do not expect its resolution to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
We have determined that our legal obligations to remove or remediate certain potentially hazardous materials may be conditional asset retirement obligations, as defined in GAAP. Except in limited circumstances where the asset retirement activities are expected to be performed in connection with a planned construction project or apartment community casualty, we believe that the fair value of our asset retirement obligations cannot be reasonably estimated due to significant uncertainties in the timing and manner of settlement of those obligations. Asset retirement obligations that are reasonably estimable as of June 30, 2017, are immaterial to our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Note 5 — Earnings per Share and Unit
Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership calculate basic earnings per common share and basic earnings per common unit based on the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock and common partnership units and participating securities outstanding and calculate diluted earnings per share and diluted earnings per unit taking into consideration dilutive common stock and common partnership unit equivalents and dilutive convertible securities outstanding during the period.
Our common stock and common partnership unit equivalents include options to purchase shares of Common Stock, which, if exercised, would result in Aimco’s issuance of additional shares and the Aimco Operating Partnership’s issuance to Aimco of additional common partnership units equal to the number of shares purchased under the options. These equivalents also include unvested total shareholder return-based restricted stock and unit awards that do not meet the definition of participating securities, which would result in an increase in the number of common shares and common partnership units outstanding equal to the number of shares that vest. The effect of these securities was dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and accordingly has been included in the denominator for calculating diluted earnings per share and unit during these periods.
Our time-based restricted stock awards receive dividends similar to shares of Common Stock and common partnership units prior to vesting. These dividends are not forfeited in the event that the restricted stock does not vest. Therefore, the unvested shares and units related to these awards are participating securities. The effect of participating securities is included in basic and diluted earnings per share and unit computations using the two-class method of allocating distributed and undistributed earnings. There were 0.2 million unvested participating shares and units at June 30, 2017 and 2016.
The Aimco Operating Partnership has various classes of preferred OP Units, which may be redeemed at the holders’ option. The Aimco Operating Partnership may redeem these units for cash, or at its option, shares of Common Stock. As of June 30, 2017, these preferred OP Units were potentially redeemable for approximately 2.4 million shares of Common Stock (based on the period end market price), or cash. The Aimco Operating Partnership has a redemption policy that requires cash settlement of redemption requests for the preferred OP Units, subject to limited exceptions. Accordingly, we have excluded these securities from earnings per share and unit computations and we expect to exclude them in future periods.
Note 6 — Fair Value Measurements
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
We measure at fair value on a recurring basis our investments in the securitization trust that holds certain of our property debt, which we classify as available for sale, or AFS, securities, and our interest rate swaps, both of which are classified within Level 2 of the GAAP fair value hierarchy.
Our investments classified as AFS are presented within other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. We hold several positions in the securitization trust that pay interest currently and we also hold the first loss position in the securitization trust, which accrues interest over the term of the investment. We are accreting the discount to the $100.9 million face value of the investments into interest income using the effective interest method over the remaining term of the investments, which, as of June 30, 2017, was approximately 3.9 years. Our amortized cost basis for these investments, which represents the original cost adjusted for interest accretion less interest payments received, was $75.1 million and $72.5 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. We estimated the fair value of these investments to be $78.2 million and $76.1 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.
We estimate the fair value of these investments using an income and market approach primarily with observable inputs, including yields and other information regarding similar types of investments, and adjusted for certain unobservable inputs specific to these investments. The fair value of the positions that pay interest currently typically moves in an inverse relationship with movements in interest rates. The fair value of the first loss position is primarily correlated to collateral quality and demand for similar subordinate commercial mortgage-backed securities.

Table of Contents

Certain consolidated partnerships served by our Asset Management business have entered into interest rate swap agreements, which limit exposure to interest rate fluctuations on the partnerships’ variable-rate debt by effectively converting the interest on variable-rate debt to a fixed rate. We estimate the fair value of interest rate swaps using an income approach with primarily observable inputs including information regarding the hedged variable cash flows and forward yield curves relating to the variable interest rates on which the hedged cash flows are based.
The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in fair value of these interest rate swaps (in thousands):

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, these interest rate swaps had aggregate notional amounts of $49.3 million and $49.6 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2017, these swaps had a weighted average remaining term of 3.5 years. We have designated these interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. The fair value of these swaps is presented within accrued liabilities and other in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, and we recognize any changes in the fair value as an adjustment of accumulated other comprehensive loss within equity and partners’ capital to the extent of their effectiveness.
If the forward rates at June 30, 2017 remain constant, we estimate that during the next 12 months, we would reclassify approximately $1.2 million of the unrealized losses in accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings. If market interest rates increase above the 3.44% weighted average fixed rate under these interest rate swaps the consolidated partnerships will benefit from net cash payments due from the counterparties to the interest rate swaps.
Fair Value Disclosures
We believe that the aggregate fair value of the consolidated amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables approximates their aggregate carrying amounts at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, due to their relatively short-term nature and high probability of realization. The estimated aggregate fair value of consolidated total indebtedness associated with our Real Estate portfolio and the non-recourse property debt of the consolidated partnerships served by our Asset Management was approximately $4.5 billion and $4.0 billion at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, as compared to aggregate carrying amounts of $4.3 billion and $3.9 billion, respectively. We estimate the fair value of debt using an income and market approach, including comparison of the contractual terms to observable and unobservable inputs such as market interest rate risk spreads, contractual interest rates, remaining periods to maturity, collateral quality and loan to value ratios on similarly encumbered assets within our portfolio. We classify the fair value of debt within Level 3 of the GAAP valuation hierarchy based on the significance of certain of the unobservable inputs used to estimate their fair values.
Note 7 — Business Segments
In 2017, we revised the information regularly reviewed by our chief executive officer, who is our chief operating decision maker, to assess our operating performance. Apartment communities are classified as either part of our Real Estate portfolio or those owned through partnerships served by our Asset Management business.
Our Real Estate portfolio consisted of 141 apartment communities with 39,187 apartment homes at June 30, 2017. This portfolio is diversified by both price point and geography and consists primarily of market rate apartment communities.
Our chief operating decision maker uses proportionate property net operating income to assess the operating performance of our apartment communities. Proportionate property net operating income reflects our share of rental and other property revenues less direct property operating expenses, including real estate taxes, for consolidated apartment communities we own and manage. As of June 30, 2017, for segment performance evaluation, our Real Estate segment included 137 consolidated apartment communities with 39,045 apartment homes and excluded four apartment communities with 142 apartment homes that we neither manage nor consolidate.
As discussed in Note 1, as of June 30, 2017, through our Asset Management business we also owned nominal ownership positions in consolidated partnerships for which we provide asset management services. These partnerships own 46 low-income housing tax credit apartment communities with 6,898 apartment homes. Neither the results of operations, nor the assets of these

partnerships and apartment communities are quantitatively material; therefore, we have one reportable segment, Real Estate. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, and the segment assets as of December 31, 2016, shown below have been revised to reflect the change in our reportable segments.

Note 8 — Variable Interest Entities
Aimco consolidates the Aimco Operating Partnership, which is a variable interest entity, or VIE, for which Aimco is the primary beneficiary. Aimco, through the Aimco Operating Partnership, consolidates all VIEs for which we are the primary beneficiary. Generally, a VIE is a legal entity in which the equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or the equity investors lack sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. A limited partnership is considered a VIE when the majority of the limited partners unrelated to the general partner possess neither the right to remove the general partner without cause, nor certain rights to participate in the decisions that most significantly affect the financial results of the partnership. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE, we consider qualitative and quantitative factors, including, but not limited to: which activities most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and which party controls such activities; the amount and characteristics of our investment; the obligation or likelihood for us or other investors to provide financial support; and the similarity with and significance to our business activities and the business activities of the other investors. Significant judgments related to these determinations include estimates about the current and future fair values and performance of real estate held by these VIEs and general market conditions.
All of the VIEs we consolidate own interests in one or more apartment communities. VIEs that own apartment communities we classify as part of our Real Estate segment are typically structured to generate a return for their partners through the operation and ultimate sale of the communities. We are the primary beneficiary in the limited partnerships in which we are the sole decision maker and have a substantial economic interest.
All of the partnerships served by our Asset Management business own interests in low-income housing tax credit apartment communities that are structured to provide for the pass-through of tax credits and tax deductions to their partners and are VIEs. We hold a nominal ownership position in these partnerships, generally one percent or less. As general partner in these partnerships, we are the sole decision maker and we receive fees and other payments in return for the asset management and other services we provide and thus share in the economics of the partnerships, and as such, we are the primary beneficiary of these partnerships.

ITEM 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward Looking Statements
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements in certain circumstances. Certain information included in this Quarterly Report contains or may contain information that is forward-looking, within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including, without limitation, statements regarding: our ability to maintain current or meet projected occupancy, rental rate and property operating results; the effect of acquisitions, dispositions, redevelopments and developments; our ability to meet budgeted costs and timelines, and achieve budgeted rental rates related to our redevelopment and development investments; expectations regarding sales of our apartment communities and the use of proceeds thereof; and our ability to comply with debt covenants, including financial coverage ratios.
Actual results may differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements and, in addition, will be affected by a variety of risks and factors, some of which are beyond our control, including, without limitation:
Real estate and operating risks, including fluctuations in real estate values and the general economic climate in the markets in which we operate and competition for residents in such markets; national and local economic conditions, including the pace of job growth and the level of unemployment; the amount, location and quality of competitive new housing supply; the timing of acquisitions, dispositions, redevelopments and developments; and changes in operating costs, including energy costs;
Financing risks, including the availability and cost of capital markets financing and the risk that our cash flows from operations may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest and the risk that our earnings may not be sufficient to maintain compliance with debt covenants;
Insurance risks, including the cost of insurance and natural disasters and severe weather such as hurricanes; and
Legal and regulatory risks, including costs associated with prosecuting or defending claims and any adverse outcomes; the terms of governmental regulations that affect us and interpretations of those regulations; and possible environmental liabilities, including costs, fines or penalties that may be incurred due to necessary remediation of contamination of apartment communities presently or previously owned by us.
In addition, our current and continuing qualification as a real estate investment trust involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and depends on our ability to meet the various requirements imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, through actual operating results, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership.
Readers should carefully review our financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the section entitled “Risk Factors” described in Item 1A of Apartment Investment and Management Company’s and AIMCO Properties, L.P.’s combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, and the other documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
As used herein and except as the context otherwise requires, “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Apartment Investment and Management Company (which we refer to as Aimco), AIMCO Properties, L.P. (which we refer to as the Aimco Operating Partnership) and their consolidated entities, collectively.
Executive Overview
Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership are focused on the ownership, management, redevelopment and limited development of quality apartment communities located in the largest markets in the United States. Our business activities are defined by a commitment to our core values of integrity, respect, collaboration, performance and a focus on our customers. These values and our corporate mission, “to consistently provide quality apartment homes in a respectful environment delivered by a team of people who care,” shape our culture. In all our interactions with residents, team members, business partners, lenders and equity holders, we aim to be the best owner and operator of apartment communities and an outstanding corporate citizen.
Our principal financial objective is to provide predictable and attractive returns to our equity holders. We measure our total return using growth in Economic Income and our current return using Adjusted Funds From Operations (each of which are defined under the Non-GAAP Measures heading below). Our business plan to achieve this principal financial objective is to:
operate our portfolio of desirable apartment homes with valued amenities, with a high level of focus on customer selection and customer satisfaction, and in an efficient manner that realizes the benefits of our corporate systems and local management expertise;

Table of Contents

improve our portfolio of apartment communities, which is diversified both by geography and price point, and which averages “B/B+” in quality (defined under the Portfolio Management heading below) by selling apartment communities with lower projected free cash flow returns and investing the proceeds from such sales in prospects with higher projected free cash flow returns than expected from the communities sold, such as property upgrades, redevelopment, development and selective acquisitions;
use financial leverage primarily in the form of non-recourse, long-dated, fixed-rate property debt and perpetual preferred equity, a combination which reduces our refunding and re-pricing risk and which provides a hedge against increases in interest rates; and
emphasize a collaborative, respectful, and performance-oriented culture with high team engagement.
Our business is organized around our strategic areas of focus: property operations; redevelopment and development; portfolio management; balance sheet; and culture.
Our results for the three months ended June 30, 2017, included a number of factors that demonstrate our plan is working, as demonstrated by the following highlights:
property operations were on track, with Same Store property net operating income up 4.9% year-over-year, contributing an incremental $0.03 per share of proportionate property net operating income during the three months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016;
our portfolio outside of Same Store contributed incremental proportionate property net operating income of $0.04 per share during the three months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the same period in 2016… and our Redevelopment and lease-up projects are on plan;
our portfolio continues to improve, boosted during the three months ended June 30, 2017 by the purchase of our partner’s 47% interest in the Palazzo communities, three high-quality properties that we know well and have operated since their construction (the acquisition is discussed further under the Portfolio Management heading below); and
Aimco was recognized once again as one of Colorado’s Top Workplaces, one of only dozen or so to earn this recognition for a fifth consecutive year among the hundreds considered.
These activities and their results lead to an increase in FFO and Pro forma FFO per share of $0.02, or 3.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the same period in 2016. The primary drivers of the increase in FFO and Pro forma FFO per share were:
$0.07 from growth in the property net operating income of our Same Store portfolio and our portfolio outside of Same Store; and
$0.04 from lower interest expense, lower general and administrative costs and lower other expenses.
These increases of $0.11 in FFO and Pro forma FFO per share for the three months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to 2016 were offset by reductions of $0.09, consisting of:
$0.04 from the planned reductions in earnings from the Asset Management business;
$0.02 from lower tax benefits; and
$0.03 from the loss of income from apartment communities sold in 2016.
For the same period, the increase in FFO and Pro forma FFO per share was partially offset by planned increases in capital replacement spending, resulting in a $0.01, or 2.0%, increase in AFFO per share.
Property Operations
We own and operate a portfolio of apartment communities diversified by both geography and price point. At June 30, 2017, our Real Estate portfolio included 141 predominantly market rate apartment communities with 39,187 apartment homes in which we held an average ownership of approximately 99%.
Our property operations team delivered solid results for our Real Estate portfolio for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Highlights for the quarter include:
Same Store net operating income increased year-over-year by 4.9%, consisting of revenue growth of 3.4% and expense reduction of 0.3%;

23

Table of Contents

Same Store rent increases on renewals and new leases averaged of 4.6% and 1.0%, respectively, for a weighted average increase of 2.7%; and
We completed the lease-up at Indigo, in Redwood City, California, with 95.5% of the apartment homes leased at June 30, 2017.
Redevelopment and Development
Within our Real Estate portfolio, we invest in the redevelopment of certain apartment communities in superior locations when we believe the investment will yield risk-adjusted returns in excess of the cost of equity used to fund the equity component of the redevelopment. We expect to create value equal to 25% to 35% of our investment in redevelopment.
We have undertaken a range of redevelopments, including those in which buildings or exteriors are renovated without the need to vacate apartment homes; those in which significant renovation of apartment homes may be accomplished upon lease expiration and turnover; and those in which an entire building or community is vacated. We execute our redevelopments using a phased approach, in which we renovate portions of an apartment community in stages, which allows additional flexibility in the timing and amount of our investment and the ability to tailor our product offerings to customer response and rent achievement. Redevelopment and development work may include seeking entitlements from local governments, which, for redevelopments, enhance the value of our existing portfolio by increasing density, that is, the right to add apartment homes to a site.
In addition, we undertake development, either directly in connection with the redevelopment of an existing apartment community or, on a more limited basis, at a new location. In such cases, we may rely on a third-party developer with expertise in the local market and with contracts that limit our exposure to construction risk.
During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we invested $47.4 million in ongoing redevelopment and development projects and expanded our redevelopment pipeline by $37.7 million. The total estimated net investment for these redevelopment and development communities is $553.7 million with a projected weighted average net operating income yield on these investments of 6.1%.
At Park Towne Place, a mixed-use residential community located in Center City, Philadelphia, we are redeveloping the four towers, one at a time. We have substantially completed redevelopment and lease-up of the first two towers. Construction of the third tower is underway and on schedule for completion later this year. We have already leased 57% of the apartment homes being redeveloped in the third tower. Based on the success of the first three towers, we are evaluating the optimal timing to redevelop the fourth tower.
During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we commenced a $28.0 million phased redevelopment of Palazzo East at Park La Brea, a 611 apartment home community located in Los Angeles, California. The redevelopment plan includes the renovation of the apartment homes as well as common areas. The redevelopment will enable us to differentiate this community from our three nearby apartment communities (Palazzo at Park La Brea, Broadcast Center and Villas at Park La Brea) to serve distinct market segments. Approval of the second phase is expected next year.
During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we also began an initial phase of redevelopment for the Flamingo South Beach, a 1,294 apartment home community in Miami, Florida. This initial phase includes the full upgrade to property-wide security systems and elevators, as well as upgrades to common areas. Approval of the second phase is expected later in 2017 and is expected to include renovation of the apartment homes within the community.
We currently have nine communities under redevelopment, with an expected increase in average monthly revenue of $409 per apartment home. Leasing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2017 included 541 apartment homes, primarily at Park Towne Place and The Sterling, in Center City Philadelphia. Rent achievement at these two communities averaged 138% of pre-redevelopment rents and contributed to incremental redevelopment related revenues of $1.2 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Additionally during the three months ended June 30, 2017, we completed the lease-up of Indigo in Redwood City, California. When combined with activity at One Canal in Boston, a total of 135 leases were transacted during the three months ended June 30, 2017, contributing to $7.4 million of incremental revenue compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016.
At June 30, 2017, our lease-up exposure is primarily limited to Park Towne Place, where there are approximately 150 apartment homes to rent once construction is completed in the third tower.
See below under the Liquidity and Capital Resources – Redevelopment and Development heading for additional information regarding our redevelopments and developments during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Portfolio Management
Our portfolio strategy seeks predictable rent growth from a portfolio of apartment communities that is diversified across “A,” “B” and “C+” price points, averaging “B/B+” in quality, and that is also diversified across the largest markets in the United States. We measure the quality of apartment communities in our Real Estate portfolio based on average rents of our apartment homes compared to local market average rents as reported by a third-party provider of commercial real estate performance and analysis. Under this rating system, we classify as “A” quality apartment communities those earning rents greater than 125% of the local market average, as “B” quality apartment communities those earning rents between 90% and 125% of the local market average; “C+” quality apartment communities are those earning rents greater than $1,100 per month, but lower than 90% of the local market average; and “C” quality apartment communities are those earning rents less than $1,100 per month and lower than 90% of the local market average. We classify as “B/B+” quality a portfolio that on average earns rents between 100% and 125% of the local market average rents where the portfolio is located. Although some companies and analysts within the multifamily real estate industry use apartment community quality ratings of “A,” “B” and “C,” some of which are tied to local market rent averages, the metrics used to classify apartment community quality as well as the timing for which local market rents are calculated may vary from company to company. Accordingly, our rating system for measuring apartment community quality is neither broadly nor consistently used in the multifamily real estate industry.
As part of our portfolio strategy, we seek to sell each year up to 10% of the apartment communities in our portfolio and invest the proceeds from such sales in prospects with higher projected free cash flow returns than those expected from communities sold, such as property upgrades, redevelopment of communities in our current portfolio, occasional development of new communities and selective acquisitions of apartment communities. We execute our strategy through leverage neutral paired trades when the investment will yield risk-adjusted returns in excess of those of the apartment community sold and when portfolio quality is enhanced. Through this disciplined approach to capital recycling, which we refer to as “paired trades”, we have significantly increased the quality and expected growth rate of our Real Estate portfolio as evidenced by increased average revenue per Aimco apartment home for the portfolio and higher average rents compared to local market rents.

(1) Represents average monthly rental and other property revenues divided by the number of occupied apartment homes multiplied by our ownership interest in the apartment community as of the end of the current period. Average revenue per Aimco apartment home for the three months ended June 30, 2017 has been increased by $24, which represents the effect of the Palazzo acquisition on average revenue as if the transaction had closed on April 1, 2017.
On June 30, 2017, we reacquired for $451.5 million the 47% limited partner interest in the Palazzo joint venture. We once again own 100% of the three Palazzo apartment communities: Palazzo at Park La Brea, a 521 apartment home community; Palazzo East at Park La Brea, a 611 apartment home community; and Villas at Park La Brea, a 250 apartment home community. The communities are located in the Mid-Wilshire district of Los Angeles, California. We contracted for the communities’ construction 15 years ago and have operated the communities since their completion. The acquisition is expected to be leverage neutral once short-term borrowings are refunded by sales of lower-rated apartment communities.This transaction shifts capital from submarkets with lower revenue growth to a submarket with 30% higher rent growth and 21% higher free cash flow margins.
During the three months ended June 30, 2017, adjusting for the Palazzo transaction, average revenue per Aimco apartment home for our Real Estate portfolio was $2,038, a 7% increase compared to three months ended June 30, 2016. The increase was partially due to growth in Same Store average revenue per Aimco apartment home of 3.4%. The sale of apartment communities in 2016, with average monthly revenues per Aimco apartment home substantially lower than those of the retained portfolio and our reinvestment of the sales proceeds through redevelopment, development and acquisition of apartment communities with higher rents and better free cash flow return prospects also contributed to the growth in average revenue per Aimco apartment home.
As we execute our portfolio strategy, we expect to increase average revenue per Aimco apartment home for our Real Estate portfolio at a rate greater than market rent growth; to increase free cash flow margins; and to maintain sufficient geographic and price point diversification to limit volatility and concentration risk.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity
We target net leverage of $3.8 billion. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we increased our leverage above this target to acquire the 47% limited partner interest in the Palazzo joint venture. The increase in leverage included our assumption of $140.5 million in existing non-recourse property debt, $250.0 million in a new term loan, and $60.8 million in borrowings against the revolving credit facility. We plan to sell apartment communities in Rhode Island, Virginia, Maryland, and New Jersey to repay the term loan and reduce leverage to our $3.8 billion target.
Our leverage includes our share of long-term, non-recourse property debt secured by apartment communities in our Real Estate portfolio, our one-year term loan, outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and outstanding preferred equity. In our calculation of leverage, we exclude non-recourse property debt obligations of consolidated partnerships served by our Asset Management business, as these are not our obligations and they have limited effect on the amount of fees and other amounts we expect to receive in our role as asset manager for these partnerships.
Our leverage strategy seeks to increase financial returns while using leverage with appropriate caution. We target the ratio of Proportionate Debt and Preferred Equity to Adjusted EBITDA to be below 7.0x and we target the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to Adjusted Interest Expense and Preferred Dividends to be greater than 2.5x. We also focus on the ratios of Proportionate Debt to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Adjusted Interest Expense.
Proportionate Debt, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Interest Expense, as used in these ratios, are non-GAAP financial measures, which are further discussed and reconciled under the Non-GAAP Measures Leverage Ratios heading. Preferred Equity represents Aimco’s preferred stock and the Aimco Operating Partnership’s preferred OP Units. Our leverage ratios for the three months ended June 30, 2017 are presented below:
 
Three Months Ended June 30, 2017
Proportionate Debt to Adjusted EBITDA
6.8x
Proportionate Debt and Preferred Equity to Adjusted EBITDA
7.2x
Adjusted EBITDA to Adjusted Interest Expense
3.7x
Adjusted EBITDA to Adjusted Interest Expense and Preferred Dividends
3.3x
Due to the lease-up of apartment communities recently acquired, developed or redeveloped, computation of our leverage ratios using trailing 12-month Adjusted EBITDA is not reflective of current period operating results, nor of material transactions that may have occurred during the trailing 12-month period. These deficiencies led us to revise our calculation of leverage ratios to be based on the current quarter results, annualized, and adjusted further to reflect material transactions during the quarter. As applied to the three months ended June 30, 2017, we calculated our leverage ratios as though we acquired the limited partner interests in the Palazzo joint venture on April 1, 2017.
Changing from trailing 12-months to annualized second quarter results lowered our Proportionate Debt to Adjusted EBITDA and Proportionate Debt and Preferred Equity to Adjusted EBITDA by 0.2x, primarily due to the increased contribution from the lease-up of apartment communities discussed above. The consideration of the Palazzo acquisition lowered the same ratios by another 0.2x.
We expect improvement in leverage metrics from earnings growth, primarily due to increasing contribution from redevelopment and lease-up apartment communities and reduction in debt balances due to regularly scheduled debt amortization and apartment community sales, partially offset by the loss of earnings from sold communities. We expect that these activities will reduce our Proportionate Debt to Adjusted EBITDA and Proportionate Debt and Preferred Equity to Adjusted EBITDA ratios by year-end to approximately 6.2x and 6.6x, respectively.
As of June 30, 2017, we held unencumbered apartment communities with an estimated fair value of approximately $1.8 billion.
Two credit rating agencies rate our creditworthiness using different methodologies and ratios for assessing our credit, and both have rated our credit and outlook as BBB- (stable), an investment grade rating. Although some of the ratios they use are similar to those we use to measure our leverage, there are differences in our methods of calculation and therefore our leverage ratios disclosed above may not be indicative of the ratios that may be calculated by these agencies.
During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we priced seven loans totaling $79.4 million. These loans have a weighted average interest rate of 3.46%, a spread of 129 basis points over the corresponding treasury rates at the time of pricing.

Culture
Our culture is the key to our success. Our emphasis on a collaborative, respectful, and performance-oriented culture is what enables the continuing transformation of the Aimco business. In April 2017, Aimco was recognized by the Denver Post as a Top Work Place. We are one of only a dozen Colorado companies of all sizes who have earned this designation for five consecutive years.
Key Financial Indicators
The key financial indicators that we use in managing our business and in evaluating our operating performance are Economic Income, our measure of total return, and Adjusted Funds From Operations, our measure of current return. In addition to these indicators, we evaluate our operating performance and financial condition using: Pro forma Funds From Operations; Free Cash Flow, or FCF, capitalization rate; net operating income, or NOI, capitalization rate; same store property operating results; average revenue per Aimco apartment home; financial coverage ratios; and net leverage. Certain of these financial indicators are non-GAAP financial measures, which are defined, further described, and for certain of the measures, reconciled to comparable GAAP-based measures, under the Non-GAAP Measures heading.
Results of Operations
Because our operating results depend primarily on income from our apartment communities, the supply of and demand for apartments influences our operating results. Additionally, the level of expenses required to operate and maintain our apartment communities and the pace and price at which we redevelop, acquire and dispose of our apartment communities affect our operating results.
The following discussion and analysis of the results of our operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1.
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 compared to June 30, 2016
Net income attributable to Aimco decreased by $206.4 million and $218.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, as compared to the June 30, 2016 comparable periods. Net income attributable to the Aimco Operating Partnership decreased by $216.5 million and $229.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, as compared to the June 30, 2016 comparable periods. The decreases in income for Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership were primarily due to lower gains on disposition of real estate and higher depreciation and amortization from developments and redevelopments placed into service and our acquisition of Indigo during 2016.
The following paragraphs discuss these and other items affecting the results of operations of Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership in more detail.
Property Operations
As described under the preceding Executive Overview heading, our Real Estate segment consists primarily of market rate apartment communities in which we hold a substantial equity ownership interest.
We use proportionate property net operating income to assess the operating performance of our apartment communities. Proportionate property net operating income reflects our share of rental and other property revenues less direct property operating expenses, including real estate taxes, for consolidated apartment communities we manage. Accordingly, the results of operations of our Real Estate segment discussed below are presented on a proportionate basis and exclude the results of four apartment communities with 142 apartment homes that we neither manage nor consolidate.
We do not include property management revenues, offsite costs associated with property management or casualty-related amounts in our assessment of segment performance. Accordingly, these items are not allocated to our segment results discussed below. Refer to Note 7 of the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 for further discussion regarding our reportable segment, including a reconciliation of these proportionate amounts to the corresponding amounts in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Real Estate Proportionate Property Net Operating Income
We classify apartment communities within our Real Estate segment as Same Store and Non-Same Store. Same Store apartment communities are those that have reached a stabilized level of operations as of January 1, 2016 and maintained it throughout the current and comparable prior periods, and are not expected to be sold within 12 months. Non-Same Store includes communities that do not meet the Same Store definition, including, but not limited to: redevelopment and development apartment communities, which are those currently under construction that have not achieved a stabilized level of operations and those that have been

Table of Contents

completed in recent years that had not achieved and maintained stabilized operations for both the current and comparable prior year; acquisition apartment communities, which are those we have acquired since the beginning of a two year comparable period; and communities that we expect to sell within twelve months but do not yet meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale.
As of June 30, 2017, as defined by our segment performance metrics, our Real Estate portfolio consisted of 92 Same Store apartment communities with 26,386 apartment homes and 45 Non-Same Store apartment communities with 12,659 apartment homes.
From December 31, 2016 to June 30, 2017, on a net basis, our Same Store portfolio decreased by nine apartment communities and 4,507 apartment homes. These changes consisted of:
the addition of three redeveloped apartment communities with 974 apartment homes that were classified as Same Store upon maintaining stabilized operations for the entirety of both periods presented;
the addition of one acquired apartment community with 94 apartment homes that was classified as Same Store because we have now owned it for the entirety of both periods presented;
the reduction of five apartment communities with 2,460 apartment homes at which we commenced redevelopment or development activities during the period; and
the reduction of eight apartment communities with 3,115 apartment homes, which are expected to be sold within 12 months, but do not yet meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale.
As of June 30, 2017, our Non-Same Store apartment communities comprised approximately one-third of our Real Estate portfolio, and included:
15 apartment communities with 6,211 apartment homes in redevelopment or development;
2 apartment communities with 578 apartment homes recently acquired;
4 apartment communities with 604 apartment homes owned that receive forms of government rental assistance;
14 apartment communities with 1,556 apartment homes that do not meet the definition of Same Store because they are either subject to agreements that limit the amount by which we may increase rents or have not reached or maintained a stabilized level of occupancy as of the beginning of a two year comparable period, often due to a casualty event; and
10 apartment communities with 3,710 apartment homes we expect to sell in the next twelve months but that do not yet meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale.
Prior to 2017, seven of the communities in our Non-Same Store portfolio were classified as part of our prior Affordable segment. The results of operations for these communities are reflected in both 2017 and 2016 comparable periods in the tables below.
Our Real Estate segment results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, as presented below, are based on the apartment community populations as of June 30, 2017.

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016, our Real Estate segment’s proportionate property net operating income increased $12.2 million, or 8.8%.
Same Store proportionate property net operating income increased by $4.9 million, or 4.9%. This increase was primarily attributable to a $4.7 million, or 3.4%, increase in rental and other property revenues due to higher average monthly revenues (approximately $64 per Aimco apartment home), comprised primarily of increases in rental rates and partially offset by a 10 basis point decrease in average daily occupancy. Rental rates on renewals transacted during the three months ended June 30, 2017, were 4.6% higher than expiring lease rates, and new lease rates were 1.0% higher than expiring lease rates, resulting in a weighted average increase of 2.7%.
Our Non-Same Store proportionate property net operating income increased by $7.3 million, or 18.6%, a higher rate of growth than our Same Store portfolio due to our Portfolio Management and Redevelopment and Development activities. Our Non-Same Store proportionate property net operating income grew due to our August 2016 acquisition of Indigo and subsequent lease up of this community, and due to the lease-up of apartment homes placed into service following completion of development and redevelopment activities at our One Canal, The Sterling and Park Towne Place communities, partially offset by the lower income from the commencement of redevelopment activities at Palazzo at Park La Brea and the North Tower of Park Towne Place.
We completed the lease-up of Indigo during the three months ended June 30, 2017, and when combined with activity at One Canal, a total of 135 leases were transacted during the three months ended June 30, 2017, contributing to $7.4 million of incremental revenue compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016. Redevelopment leasing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2017 also included 541 apartment homes, primarily at Park Towne Place and The Sterling. Rent achievement at these two communities averaged 138% of pre-redevelopment rents and contributed to incremental redevelopment related revenues of $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016.
