DoubleTree Portfolio

On March 8, 2022, the REIT began the marketing process to sell its DoubleTree Portfolio. As of September 30, 2023, the REIT has sold the Beaverton, Vancouver, Bend and Olympia properties for a combined purchase price of US$80.25 million. The REIT had executed purchase and sale agreements on the Tigard property for a purchase price of US$24.5 million. However, the buyer defaulted on the agreement and relinquished the escrow to the REIT. The REIT is still actively marketing the Tigard property and hopes to complete the sale of the property before year-end. The REIT used the proceeds from the Beaverton, Bend, Vancouver, and Olympia sales to pay off the DT Portfolio debt and reduce other portfolio debt and liabilities.

HIX Nashville Portfolio

On February 6, 2023, the REIT entered into an agreement with a broker to market the Holiday Inn Express Nashville property (the "Tennessee Property"). On August 11, 2023, the REIT's subsidiary NHT Nashville, LLC, entered into an agreement for the sale of the Tennessee Property for a purchase price of US$120 million. The sale of the Tennessee Property is expected to close in December 2023.  Proceeds of the transaction will be used to repay indebtedness related to the Tennessee Property and to potentially fund future acquisitions of real property.
