Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Newcastle is, from time to time, a defendant in legal actions from transactions conducted in the ordinary course of business. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, believes the ultimate liability arising from such actions, individually and in the aggregate, that existed at September 30, 2014, if any, will not materially affect Newcastle’s consolidated results of operations or financial position. As part of the June 2014 Master Tenant lease, Newcastle committed to making $6.5 million immediately available for capital improvements and other repairs to the properties under the lease agreement and also agreed to make available to the June 2014 Master Tenant an additional $9.0 million at certain intervals over the 15 year lease period to be used for further capital improvements. Upon funding the capital improvements, Newcastle will be entitled to a rent increase.

The entire disclosure for commitments and contingencies.
