RE: CWT Looks To Expand Portfolio By 50%

RE: CWT Looks To Expand Portfolio By 50%IMO, unlikey. Provisions in recent mega-deals between CWT and SmartCentres mean that Mitch can basically buy some of the best properties back for what he sold them for in the event someone acquires 20% or more of o/s units. The leaseholds may have clauses that are not public that further empower SC/Mitch. Mitch holds about 25% of the units and must greatly enjoy his gig with CWT: they pay top dollar for his centres, enter into forward contracts on yet to be built centres, readily provide cheap loans and funding, grant options on Earnouts, and on, and on. He can vend whatever he wants into CWT and get his price. It must have great strategic importance to his real estate aspirations - a guaranteed buyer. SmartCentres is just starting its move into the NE US. (Yes, I've been buying units.)
