Northview Apartment REIT completes bought deal equity financing
On June 25, 2018, Northview Apartment Real Estate Investment Trust ("Northview") announced that it closed its previously announced public offering, on a bought deal basis, of trust units with a syndicate of underwriters co-led by CIBC Capital Markets and Scotiabank.
An aggregate of 4,830,000 units were issued by Northview at a price of C$26.20 per unit, including 630,000 units issued on the full exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option, for aggregate gross proceeds of C$126.5 million.
Northview intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund a portion of the C$151.8 million purchase price in connection with its acquisition of a 623 unit portfolio of six apartment properties from affiliates of Starlight Group Property Holdings Inc., and to repay a portion of its existing credit facilities.
Northview is one of Canada's largest publicly traded multi-family REITs with a portfolio of approximately 25,000 quality residential suites and 1.2 million square feet of commercial space in more than 60 markets across eight provinces and two territories.
