I am thinking that ST will just drag it on...wait for the fire to die down...stay low-profile...

Capitaland just bought over Big Orange Self Storage. Makes me wonder how much EHL's SelfStorage business is worth together with EPL building...think it might be a bit smallish at current stage. Not sure of how much revenue it's generating. Anyone has any idea?

Hoy Fatt is back on sale again (posted today):

So, it's likely the buyer backed out.

How come selling at $33m again? When EVERYONE knows the seller willing and did try to let go at $27m.

Might as well do an auction. How long going to keep bryton vacant and lose rental income. Keep vacant for so long but end up the price also not that great wat. Worse still failed to complete...
Wonder if it is possible to strata and sell as many units?
