Insights

Medalist Diversified REIT agrees to sell a shopping center for $16,600,000, with closing subject to customary conditions.

The company’s subsidiary agreed to transfer the 156,012 square foot Ashley Plaza retail property in Goldsboro, North Carolina to HPX Goldsboro Ashley Center LLC for $16,600,000. Consideration is subject to prorations and adjustments, which is standard for commercial real estate deals.
