Nontraded REITs Find Ample Options in Liquidity Search

Law360

Nontraded REITs formed at the bottom of the recession are now seeking liquidity options for their investors, including IPOs and M&A transactions. George Howell tells Law360 that these liquidity events are drawing more attention than in the past, because nontraded REITS have raised more capital and are “bigger entities.” Howell’s practice focuses on the tax aspects of REITs, REMICs, securitizations, master limited partnerships, private investment funds, and complex financial products.
