KEY QUOTES:
“We have wasted no time finding two high-quality assets that complement our portfolio, enhance the REIT’s growth profile, and allow us to accretively redeploy a portion of the proceeds from our recent sale of nine stabilized properties. Forayna Vintage Park and Botanic Luxury are both well positioned to benefit from the BSR operating platform and drive growth for our unitholders. By adding these communities, we have quickly executed on a significant portion of the strategy we presented to the market in the first quarter of the year.”
