The decrease in the number of unconsolidated apartment communities from 2011 to 2012 was primarily attributed to the sale in December 2012 of the legacy asset management business. Based on the timing of the sale, the results of operations of the unconsolidated apartment communities in this portfolio are included in the table above for 2012 and 2011. Based on our insignificant economic ownership in the legacy asset management business, substantially all of the net equity and results of operations related to the legacy asset management business were attributed to the associated noncontrolling interests.
At December 31, 2013 and 2012, our aggregate recorded investment in unconsolidated partnerships of $16.9 million and $18.7 million, respectively, exceeded our share of the partners’ capital or deficit recognized in the underlying partnerships' financial statements by approximately $1.1 million and $6.9 million, respectively.
