BETHESDA, Md., Sept. 19, 2016 -- Condor Hospitality Trust, Inc. (NASDAQ:CDOR), a hotel-focused real estate investment trust (REIT) headquartered and incorporated in the state of Maryland, today announced the closing on the sale of a legacy asset, the 63-room Quality Inn located at 96 Daniel Drive, Danville, KY for approximately $2.3 million. The net proceeds from the sale will be used for general corporate purposes and for future acquisitions of hotels that meet the Company’s new investment strategy.
“We continue to have success in the disposition of our legacy assets at attractive valuations. Year to date, Condor has now sold 14 legacy hotels, generating a total of $31.6 million in gross proceeds,” said Bill Blackham, Condor’s Chief Executive Officer. “We expect to sell at least 20 legacy hotels before the end of the year with the net sales proceeds reinvested into higher quality, select-service lodging assets such as the recently acquired downtown Atlanta Aloft and the recently announced purchase contract to acquire the Leawood, KS Aloft. The Company currently has signed contracts to sell 7 additional legacy hotels although there can be no guarantee that all of these transactions will actually close,” Mr. Blackham continued.
