TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwired – Nov. 29, 2017) – Allied Properties REIT (TSX:AP.UN) today announced that it has entered into an agreement to sell its portfolio of five properties in Winnipeg and that it has sold the Metals Building in Edmonton for aggregate proceeds of million. The Winnipeg portfolio is comprised of 343,083 square feet of GLA. As at September 30, 2017, it was 79.2% leased and represented approximately 0.4% of Allied’s net rental income. The Metals Building is comprised of 22,503 square feet of GLA. As at September 30, 2017, it was 30.9% leased and made no contribution to Allied’s net rental income.

“We remain committed to selling our small number of non-core assets, and these sales represent progress in that regard,” said Michael Emory, President & CEO. “In addition to enabling us to redeploy capital profitably, exiting the Winnipeg market and disposing of the Metals Building will streamline our operations in Western Canada. We don’t intend to exit the Edmonton market, however, as our Boardwalk & Revillon Building is a premiere Class I property with significant value-add potential in Downtown Edmonton’s burgeoning ICE District.”

The sale of the Metals Building closed on October 27, 2017, and the sale of the Winnipeg portfolio is scheduled to close on December 18, 2017. CBRE represented Allied in connection with the sale of the Metals Building, and Colliers International represented Allied in connection with the sale of the Winnipeg portfolio.
