Choice Properties REIT Sells Office, Retail Assets for $81M

Choice Properties REIT has sold two assets for $81 million.

George Weston Limited, Choice’s majority owner, said the REIT sold an office building and a retail property in the third quarter. The company did not disclose the locations or purchasers of the two assets.

Choice owns, manages and develops a portfolio of commercial and residential properties across Canada. The divestments were announced in George Weston’s third quarter report.

Choice reported its quarterly earnings earlier this month. The REIT said it achieved higher rental rates primarily in the retail and industrial sectors, along with higher capital and operating recoveries.

George Weston operates through its two reportable operating segments, the Loblaw grocery store chain and Choice.
