Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting
Asset sale reduces exposure to a high-cost urban market and increases liquidity; if proceeds are used to de-leverage or finance accretive acquisitions, earnings power and NAV could improve. Historically, REIT asset disposals that strengthen balance sheets and repurpose capital tend to support valuations, though the impact depends on reinvestment specifics.
