CapitaLand Retail China Trust (CRCT) has completed the disposal process for CapitaMall Erqi.
The property was disposed of by the REIT for RMB850.9 million (SGD165 million), which is a premium of 20% above independent valuations.
As reported by REITsWeek in February 2020, the REIT decided to divest its interest in the property given increasing capital expenditures, and the looming termination of master lease arrangements at the mall.
