A Brookfield Asset Management (BAM) property fund bought student housing properties in the US for $893 million, 36% lower than the cost of replacing the properties and a 19% discount to recent trades, Bloomberg reported Tuesday, citing a company spokesperson.
The 14 properties, with a total of about 8,700 beds, serve schools such as Texas A&M University, Dartmouth College and Indiana University, the report said.
Brookfield didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
