First, lines of credit are optional reporting. If your institution doesn't report LOCs, don't report this one (or any). Second, (if your institution does report LOC's) the loan is secured by a dwelling (the apartment building), but the purpose is not to purchase, improve or refinance a dwelling. Therefore, this loan would not be reported. If any amount is to purchase, improve or refinance a dwelling secured loan it would be reported.
