“Although Skyline Apartment REIT typically maintains a buy-and-hold strategy, we regularly evaluate our property portfolio and identify any non-core assets, where strategic dispositions can surface further value for our investors,” said Matthew Organ, President, Skyline Apartment REIT.
“These properties in Langford and Vernon were identified in 2021 as appropriate for a strategic disposition. Funds surfaced from the properties’ sale will be used toward accretive property acquisitions to ensure maximum value for Skyline Apartment REIT unitholders.”
