Next Steps 4 D are obvious to me..r they obvious to Coopa?

Asset sales are must. I'm  not talking about dismantling the beautiful collection of downtown assets that work well as a portfolio.....simply choose a couple that they can do without and even sell the non-downtown ones at a discount if needed.

Improve balance sheet substantially and ensure the NCIB can run indefinitely.

Sell DIR whenever it comes back to life around $15.

Simple structure - just downtown office with rezoning potential, solid balance  sheet, funds to support a NCIB to mop up the shares and the float continues to evaporate over the next decade.  Thats all it will take to get us to $25+ when reits  start rebounding.

My philosophy  is not selling stuff out of fear...its to make use of the 25% equity discount between private and public....boost that NAV to $40 by continously maxing out the NCIB

I don't see what the harm is in looking through the entire Dream Office portfolio for what might be able to sell at a reasonable price and consider selling it. We have no control over interest rates however Dream Office does have some control over how much debt it chooses to have. 74 Victoria - 100% occupancy, zoned residential Sussex Centre - co-owned by Dream Impact which could use the ...more
