The owners launched a repositioning program at High Park three years ago, with some 400 suites now left to be renovated. When complete, the REIT expects to see a return on its investment between eight per cent and 15 per cent.
Additionally, Minto Properties has an application at the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal that, if successful, would see additional intensification on the property.
In order to fund the purchase, Minto REIT will take on a mortgage term loan, issue partner units to its sister company and use its existing credit facility.
The acquisition, subject to regulatory and shareholder approval, is expected to close later in the quarter.
