A Mulpha SPG carve up looks almost inevitable now, doesn't it?
Is SPG still interested in the retirement assets?
Maybe...but at value...here are a few direct quotes from the SPG 1H09 reports:
"We are focused on capitalising on cyclical opportunities to strengthen Stockland and ensure we emerge from the downturn as Australia’s leading diversified property group
Acquire or gain access to good quality assets at attractive prices
Strategy – Going Forward:
Increase weighting to annuity income by acquisition of investment property and retirement DMFs at the right time in the cycle"
So...retirement assets are very much in their sights...but at "attractive prices"
