Invitation Homes Sells 708 Homes to Tricon in Plan to Exit Nashville Market

DALLAS, Dec. 9, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Invitation Homes Inc. (NYSE: INVH) ("Invitation Homes" or the "Company") today announced the sale of 708 homes in Nashville to Tricon Capital Group Inc. ("Tricon," TSX: TCN) for gross proceeds of $210 million.  The transaction closed on December 9, 2019.

"This is an opportune time for Invitation Homes to monetize our investment in Nashville, as we optimize our footprint and focus on growing accretively in high-growth locations where we have greater scale and density," said Dallas Tanner, Invitation Homes' president and chief executive officer.  "While our Nashville investment has performed well, and we have loved being part of an outstanding community of residents, associates, neighbors, and other partners, the size of our portfolio in Nashville was smaller than in the other markets we serve.  With almost 5,000 homes per market on average across our remaining 16 markets, we believe we are strategically positioned to invest and operate efficiently to drive outsized growth and risk-adjusted returns in the years ahead."

Following the transaction, Invitation Homes now owns 87 homes in Nashville, which the Company is currently marketing for future sale.

Pursuant to its strategy to reduce leverage, Invitation Homes intends to use proceeds from the transaction with Tricon primarily to prepay debt.

Roofstock, Inc. acted as an advisor to Invitation Homes on this transaction.
