Kiwi Property agrees terms for conditional Aurora
Centre sale
Kiwi Property today announced it had agreed the terms for a conditional sale of the
Aurora Centre in Wellington to an institutional investor for $142.8m (net). The transaction
price represents a 13.5% discount to the asset’s March 2023 valuation and will deliver a
property level return from inception of 10.5%.
Further details, including the purchaser and settlement date will be provided once key
conditions have been met.
Kiwi Property Chief Executive Officer, Clive Mackenzie, said “Asset recycling is an
important pillar of our capital management strategy. The sale of Aurora Centre will
enable us to further strengthen our balance sheet and unlock funds for reinvestment in
our mixed-use properties.”
“We’re focussed on building flagship assets at metropolitan town centres in Auckland
and the golden triangle, and this transaction will give even more strategic clarity to our
current and future investors.”
