Centerspace completes $318.8 million sale of 14 apartment communities
Centerspace completed the sale of 14 multifamily apartment communities and a note receivable, with aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $318.8 million, under a portfolio optimization and deleveraging plan. The company says it expects to use the proceeds to reduce debt and may pay a special distribution of about $50.0 million to $60.0 million to shareholders, though the distribution has not been declared.
Key points
- Four purchase agreements with three unaffiliated buyers covered 14 communities in Denver, Minnesota, Rapid City, South Dakota, and Bismarck, North Dakota, plus a note receivable.
- The Denver, Minnesota, and Rapid City transactions closed in staggered closings in June and July 2026; the Bismarck transaction closed on August 11, 2026.
- The company paid $25 million on its unsecured credit facility after the Denver closing and expects to use net proceeds to repay the remaining balance.
- The company determined the transactions together constituted a significant disposition of assets; a potential special distribution of $50.0 million to $60.0 million is under evaluation.
